I'll admit from the outset that I understand about 1% of the inherent possibilities coded into the UI.
I did use the tooltips in the Market tab to determine a particular buyers purchase range and adjust my price/ range to compete when buying. Now that it's gone I have no idea how to find a buyers purchase range. Can I turn the tooltips back on or is there another way for me to get that info in the Market tab?
Without this I don't know how to competitively price an buy order. Thx! |

When I wrote the above comments I wasn't in EVE. Now that I've gone back in to review, I figured out my problem.
I have my Market and Wallet windows directly next to one another, side by side. This has been comfortable for me, works well, and I've just never changed it. The Market window is small enough that I can't see "Range, Min Volume, and Expires In"(and didn't even remember they where there). The only way for me to see that information was to hover over the line. Voila! All the info I need in the tooltip (I didn't even know they were called tooltips). No scrolling.
I actually liked having the tooltips. It helped me keep my desktop neater. Now I'll have to reconfigure my desktop. Unfortunately there is no way to scroll sideways in any window to see headings that are off-screen. And you can't move headings around. I can only reduce the size of the fixed heading which also reduces the information I get see. I can put the windows on top of one another but then there is a lot of up and down scrolling to see all the orders then. I want to see as much info as possible without scrolling.
Anyway, I for one would like to see tooltips back. One vote here. Thx for all the hard work btw. I especially like that I can mark my orders with a color. It's helpful. |

I'm sorry, I think it's very unlikely that they are making a return in the market, as a lot of people where annoyed that the tooltip covered the info they were trying to see. Maybe you don't want to let your windows overlap, but maybe something like this could work for you: - make the wallet as narrow as possible
- make the market window a little bit wider than it-¦s now and place it on top the wallet (a little bit more to the right though) so all you can see in your wallet orders is the name of type
- as you want to work on the orders, double click them in the wallet to bring up the market details
- in the market window, see your order in blue, and how it compares to what others are offering, and make your changes from there.
just an idea
I appreciate your time and thoughtfulness. Thanks for the ideas. Keep-up the good work. |
