Many people had issues with the "picking" of probes happening accidentally, so we put the modifier keys in.

Why is the focus camera being fast a problem?

Option for the old map needs to stay. New map still has loads of clutter.

Ok Just to clarify, currently it is possible to scan single handed, using just the mouse.
If it is an absolute requirement to use a second hand to engage a modifier, then It becomes quite unpleasant and impractical in many circumstances. Having a modifier AVAILABLE is a nice idea, but not when there is no alternative.

I hate to give personal examples, but I have recently been bedridden, and EvE has kept me going using a laptop beside the bed.
I can currently scan whilst resting on my left arm and using the mouse with my right.
If it requires two hands, I can only do this sitting up, and then I might as well be in the lounge (which is not possible) or wait a few days until I am stronger. Whilst I have not been able to fully participate, I can at least scan out the WH chain for the corp.

I am certain that many will play the game in situations where they are not sitting in the ideal situation, on a dedicated, clear desk where the monitor and keyboard are directly in front of them, all the time.

Also I am sure people like to drink coffee, or beer, and that needs a hand free :)

Changing an activity from one that utilises one hand to become two handed, is NOT a good improvement. Scanning is a non twitch activity, whilst for combat, travel, ratting etc, two handed use is reasonable, as one is highly committed to the activity, when scanning for hours, requiring physical as well as mental commitment, is excessive.

Please re-enable the ability to drag the probe circle to resize without having to press a modifier key, it is about the only good design feature worth keeping of the old scanner. Why remove it? I have never heard of anyone resizing the probe radius when trying to move the "square" issues there are usually, throwing the probes out a billion miles with the arrows when trying to click the "square" as the cube move arrows, sometimes Get in the way of the cube faces? Other than that the new scanner is looking really good.

Ps trackpads on laptops, magic mice, etc etc, do not have a mouse wheel. And besides the mouse wheel controls zooming in and out, for scanning, that's important as you know. With a Key modified mousewheel, we are back to the same issue of requiring two hands.

The question is do you decide to make scanning a compulsory two handed activity? Is this an improvement? Please consider this carefully as this changes the activity negatively for quite a number of situations, That doesn't seem like a good choice, as for some this will be the defining feature of the new scanner, and all the other good work is wasted, and the now unwanted scanner will appear to be forced on us rather than something to be welcomed. It would be such a shame for that to happen when there is so much to appreciate.

Please consider this very carefully.
Many thanks.

I don't know if we're talking about the same thing. Can you screenshot the interface you're talking about and post back please?

The CTRL+Click map that's outlined in this thread.

Whilst the movement speed is crisp, it isn't tight, there is quite a bit of jitter when moving.

Also interacting with the scanning box is tough with all the system celestials and warpables in the way - constantly end up selecting the celestials instead of the box. Locking the sphere resize behind the ALT button is a nuisance as well.

Thanks for unlocking the probe scanner window and making the solar system fullscreen.

The drag to resize is missing. Why do I have to press modifier keys like alt and ctrl to move or rescale my probes?

Can you give the move arrows priority over symbols on the map? They get in the way for me.

The focus camera movement is very very fast.

I'm not very happy with the changes, doesn't feel like you're changing anything really. Just looks a bit different.
