Are there really people who think this new display of scan results is better than this old display of scan results?
If you take away the scan group column from the old table, the old display was clearer, more precise an easier to read in terms of distinguishabilty between what a signature is and what an anomaly is. The placement of the buttons in the middle of the window is also more logical as they are closer to the actual area of interaction without having to traverse a swamp of drones before reaching the scan results section.
What's also missing is the Show Anomaly button. This is now hidden under the filters requiring more mouse movement and clicks in order to refresh the scan results as CCP has still not managed to auto-refresh the scan results upon collapse of the warp bubble.
A beta feature is all nice and dandy, but why is it that all beta features CCP introduces are a disimprovement of the established functionalities? Why can CCP not introduce a beta successor to an existing functionality that has actual improvements on top of the full functionality of the old feature as beta version in the game? Starting from below the current level of functionality plodding upwards to at least reach the same level of functionality can't be efficient.

My ridicule, heavy criticism and general pale outlook about your or CCP's ideas is nothing but an encouragement to prove me wrong. Give it a try.

The filled out progress bar is cleaner than a thin line because it solidly fills the entire row and gives a clear and concise indication what is what in the scanner. The thin line, on the other hand, makes it harder to distinguish between which sig/anom is which in a busy scan result field. The solid bar does not yell flashy, the solid bar adequately uses the space available to convey clear information.
I am ratting by having everything but the anom type I fly ignored in the scanner. Bookmarks are in no way an efficient and convenient to use method to run specific anomalies. Sigs are obviously in the results in order to see when one comes up as soon as possible.
The missing refresh is not a bug, it's a feature since the old scanner window. But CCP missed to improve that, for instance, by making it possible to click the Scan button to refresh the scan results.

Another thing that I find a disimprovement is the removal of the split kilometer/AU distance meter in the dscan window. With the old system, it was easy to see at a glance the km and AU to compare them or change km or AU manually immediately, now you need to press a button to have the same functionality or to switch between the measure units to manipulate them. That's unacceptable.
