Some of you want ability to "restore" your overview... remember that you can always create a link to your overview the way you like it, so the best way I see to do this (rather than us implementing some "restore overview" behavior) is to create a link with the overview you are happy with and store it in for example your notepad (or bio if you don't mind other people seeing it, or corp bulletins etc). You could store links to "pvp overview", "mining overview", "overview for noobs", and if you happen to override your overview with something you don't like, clicking one of those links will restore it.

Make it possible to add fellow presets to your current profile which you can chose from but don't mess up with your current setup. This would ne a nice feature. We want to keep this fairly simple, but if you want to do something advanced like that, you can import/export.... will that work for you?

Column/tab info, that is .basically "global" overview settings ought to mean global, not "everything but colors"
That should be that way now... colors, priorities, and everything you can set in the "overview setting" window... if that's not the case, please let us know and we'll fix it

Burneddi wrote:Can you make that automatically back up your current overview before applying the changes? I know there's a confirmation box but with such a radical change that completely overwrites everything, I think it'd be a good practice to automatically back up the settings before overwriting them.
This could use the existing export function, by exporting it as eg. YYYY/MM/DD_backup_001 or something automatically. Not the stupidest idea I've heard  Let's look into it

That wway you could store links to many overviews like "pvp overview", "mining overview", "overview for noobs", and if you happen to override your overview with something you don't like, clicking one of those links will restore it. I think it's a bit of an ugly workaround for something which can be messed up with 1 click... If you're adding the feature, I'm sure we'd all benefit you spending the extra few hours to add the necessary polish to it with a revert. Let me look further into it when I get back from vacation

Tau Cabalander wrote:Does this mean that overview states will finally be made useful?
Example: Show only war targets. The states are not changing (the presentation of them is, so it's more obvious that you are picking what to filter out).
When starting this, I thought we had to completely change the states, so you would pick what you wanted in your overview (example: war targets) rather than what you didn't want.
When looking better into it, we quickly ran into this case
- I want -5 dudes in my overview so I check them -> my corp mates that are -5 now all show in the overview, not what I want
So (at least for now) it's the same as before, sorry if that's not ideal for you

Just a heads up:
Next time we update Sisi, all existing links will be missing all the tab presets, because a tiny change we had to make.
So if you are using Sisi to practice for the AT and are relying on the new overview links to load different profiles in your overview, you might want to export those overview profiles now. Then before importing them replace the word "profiles" with "presets" in the yaml files you are importing.
(the overview you have active now should work just fine, it's just if you are using existing links/yaml files to load a new overview profile).
