I like it. Nice direction. Here's a wish that I Virtual Desktop!
I started an Assembly Hall thread that I can now only find via Eve-Search [PROPOSAL] Virtual Desktops or "Spaces"
Using this new Neo-Com, I think you can quickly and easily allow us to create 4 customizable UI spaces, allowing us to keep Planet & Market windows open on one screen, quickly switch to a different screen with a POS management or chat windows, or even just to switch from a full window to a blank window, without minimizing them.
If you've used a macbook with Spaces enabled, this is what I'm talking about. It only effects the UI windows by the way.

Originally by: Night Epoch Edited by: Night Epoch on 16/12/2010 19:01:38 confirming that radial contextual menus are terrible.
They look pretty and slick in screen shots. They're borderline broken and unusable* in practice.
*in a mouse/keyboard setting, that is. They can be effective with analog sticks (e.g. like a console controller).
Yup, they suck when used for mouse/keyboard settings, but I love them for analog sticks, like you mentioned. Mass Effect & Halo Wars menus are so intuitive!
I like this direction though - keep it up CCP! Now if only they can learn how to detect monitors, and position the login screen so it doesn't split between the bevels....

Someone suggested local time above - I would support this, but only if a smaller font than the large Eve time.
Essentially the goal is to train newbies to learn Eve time, regardless of timezone. The best way to do this is to display a smaller secondary time below the main Eve time.
Do this with the Calendar as well - eventually people will learn from practice what time it is in Eve time based on what time it is in their local timezone. No more guessing, and requiring an outside resource.

Originally by: Q Aa 1. great idea! will be good for the game 2. make it more customizeable (we want to be able to put it at any side of the screen + we want to be able to put stuff outside the actual bar anywhere on the screen) 3.
