o/ How about adding "use overwiev preset" checkbox into new D-scan window like it is in the old-one now?
This is the only reason that keeps me from using new D-scan. Because selecting overview preset from a drop-down menu takes too long in pvp situations when you just need to check if there's some object that isn't shown on currend D-Scan profile as quick as possible. |

On the NEW scanner when you put the range slider to minimum, the range is set to 0. There seems to be literally no purpose to scanning at 0km.
On the OLD scanner, when you set the slider to minimum, the range was set to 1 million km. This was very useful. It allowed you to very quickly snap to a scan range that would detect things at the same celestial as you or on the other side of an acceleration gate.
If the new scanner could be fixed so that setting the slider to minimum retained a few hundred thousand km, it would be very helpful. You could still set the range to zero using the arrows or by typing if necessary. This ^^
Also about D-Scan, as i've told here before - add "use overwiev profile" CHECKBOX near the scan button as it was before! That is simply equivalent to "show all" when unchecked, and return back to my scan profile when it's checked.
Now It takes unacceptable long time to scroll all the overview presets to find one u need. And is located on the opposal side of the scan button = totally bad design.
P.S. Yes i've found 1-9 shortcuts to choose scan profile from overview tabs and it's good. BUT i don't use any of my tabs for direct scannig - so it's useless for me, i still forced to scroll my 20+ presets(and many people have much more) every time i need to check something not shown on current D-Scan profile |

So no suggestions were implemented, i'm dissapointed. Instead of small, quick and useful d-scan we're forced to use thisGǪ
New UI isn't that bad. Actually i liked: 1. Quick access to the system map, integration and interaction with it. 2. Scan cone. 3. Shortcuts for overview tab presets (it'll be great if i could set shortcuts for my presets myself, no matter are they in overview tabs or not) 4. And especially: shortcut to align scan cone to selected object.
What is downgraded in comparsion with old UI (and it was written several times here before): 1. Removed "use overview preset" checkbox, which was 100% useful for quick target locate. It was already suggested to return that checkbox or make a shortcut for "show all" when scan button is pressed (like you did with align scan cone), without resetting current scan profile. 2. Useful UI elements are located on the opposal sides of d-scan window = move them in one place! (preferably to window header) 3. Remove/change that annoying scan sound or add some checkbox to switch it off. 4. Far left position for the scan range slider of 0 au is completely useless = make it at least 0.5 au
Only if at least 1-3 of above paragraphs would be fixed, i'll agree that new d-scan ui is actually better than old one. Currently it's worse! . |
