There is an option to add a delay to the menu. Raise this to something large and you wont accidentally pop it up. |

I get around this by having a larger delay set for the radial, then having a hotkey set for activating it instantly. |

People keep asking to have the menu disappear when the mouse is out of range... though I think doing so would possibly do more harm than good. The orbit/warp-to options allow you to drag out from the button to set a distance, which is very nice. Additionally, the whole point of a radial is having the ability to just toss your mouse in a general direction without having to worry about hitting a specific spot. This is great when quickly performing commands under pressure.
There does need to be a decent way to cancel out of the radial though. I can't check right now (only have access to EVE on my MacBook Pro for the next couple weeks) but right clicking really should be made to cancel the action (without further popping up a menu) if it doesn't already do so. |

EDIT: also, when you do use the action from the radial menu, the pointer warps back to the center of the button you clicked (even when it was not on it), which is counter-intuitive and intrusive in my opinion.
I agree with this, although I can live with it, it always feels a bit wrong when the pointer jumps to some other location where I don't expect it to end up. The next mouse move usually gets "out of sync" due to this.
I agree too. At first it seemed like something which made sense and that I should just get used to... but it does violate the expectations I have on how my pointer functions. |
