Also, I was expecting you to suggest having 4 viewports (1 for each axis + an isometric view).
Left disappointed! (j/k)
THIS^
it would be just like a 3d animation interface- easy enough fix |

+1, good stuff
While at it, please give an option to disable the probe tooltips(hovering), I normally don't need to know which probe is which by hovering on them. Gallente - the choice of the interstellar gentleman |

Ooh, the good ol' UnrealEd view. I know it wasn't the first, nor the last to use it. But it's the one I used the most, so that's how I'll refer to that view.
But that would be great to get. See how your scanners compare to the target ship in all three dimensions without having to scroll around. |

Could be cool. As it is though you only need to left click on the probes name to center the view there. Granted visual clutter / view angle can make this annoying. |

Also, upper left of each probe box has an identifier. You can center on the specific probe by double clicking that identifier.
What would be nice is to double click the signature/anomaly and automatically center on that. If there is a way to do this, I haven't figured it out. |

This would save me tons of headaches when moving probes to scan. Listen to this CCP. |

While we're at it can we get a way to know where our ship is pointed? I use the Directional Scanners alot while probing, and then when i go to map view i get completely lost as to where my ship is facing, so a green arrow that shows exactly the orientation of your ship in map view would be awesome. |

Actually, I can suggest a further refinement.
Make it possible to see the changes before you implement them.
(Have a set of red bubbles / icons adjustable to new ranges or placements)
An option to scale up or scale down probe searches, based on the concept you want the probes distance from each other to keep the same ratio of distance apart to scan range. (A set of scan range bubbles at 2 AU radius would keep the same relative position and percentage of overlap if you bumped them up to 8 AU, or down to 1 AU respectively)
Manually re-positioning these for each and every change in scan range ignores what is a simple task for our ship computers to perform for us.
Scanning with probes should be less tedious, and more intuitive. Cloaking being on a ten minute manual cycle timer? (Author: Bree Okanata) Fine. As long as there is a ten minute timer for being docked in a station. Also, you can't stop moving in the game. Just add in a way so every ten minutes you are randomly warped to the nearest other player. Keeps people from going AFK. |

Wow I'm really impressed with the feedback from this LITTLE complaint. I really hope C.C.P. listens! There just isn't anything intresting on the front page of the GD anymore. Yawn! |

Hehehe. Scanning. Try anchoring POS modules sometimes. You will be grateful for the intuitive and simple to use probing interface.
(Sarcasm aside, both "drag-a-box-in-three-dimensions" interfaces could use some more polish.) |

They could them rounded, like a cylindrical pointy arrow, so it's just as thick, no matter where you are looking from. |
