Just want to say. CCP Goliath (and the rest of the eve devs working on this feature)
Your willingness to listen to feedback on the new DSCAN and Probe Windows and make adjustments/fixes as needed has been outstanding.
Much appreciated.

That means, when I have both the DScan and scanning windows stacked into the same window and I activate or switch to the DScan window it will automatically switch to the scanning window when I jump through a gate.
This behavior is rather annoying since I have to get back to the DScan window every time. This has actually been an issue for a really long time, but many seem to be noticing it more with these changes. I've been pressuring to get some developer traction on a fix. I've not come across the 'bug' before, but it seems to be the default behaviour now. And I am not noticing it more, it didn't happen at all before. As a WHer, the last thing I do before I jump out of a wormhole and the first thing I do when I jump in to a wormhole is hit DScan. I have had DScan and Probing stacked for years and do not recall ever having to change back to DScan after jumping in. Same here. I was actually astounded to find that it was a legacy issue as I also do exactly what you describe above, and have never had it occur either.
To be honest if this was a legacy issue their is no way it was being triggered before the new changes.
I scan every day and never had the loss of the focused window issue before. Its very annoying. I usually have Dscan as my selected(focused) window. Now each time I jump a wormhole the window focus switches to the probe scan window and I have to manually click back on the dscan window again.
Dscan is critical for wormholers, so please fix this asap.

Edit.
Another bug I just noticed.
The You are Here icon gets stuck and does not update with your current postion after jumping x number of wormholes.
You got a repro of an issue I have been trying to track down for some time. What's your X? I've done 20 jumps and can't repro. The legacy issue I was equally surprised at as I had never experienced it myself either. I am aware of how critical D-scan is, as I too am a wormholer. I share your frustration, and have unstacked my D-scan and Probe windows until the issue is resolved. As an aside, now that I'm used to that, I actually don't think I'll go back, as I like having both intel sources immediately visible.
Regarding repro. I dont have an exact repro however I can tell you what my ui setup is like in case that is a factor in the ''You are Here'' incon becoming stuck.
X jumps - is usually under 5-8 wormhole jumps. I haven't visited k space since parallax was deployed.
my Probe and Dscan windows are stacked.
I have the solar system map perma displayed in floating view and the map is reduced in size so it fits in the left hand corner of my screen.
On another topic. The way sigs/anoms and planets are now nested in one icon.. (when they are close to each other). This can get annoying when it hides a planet from view. When hunting in w space I will warp to various planets (dscaning as I go) Because the planets are sometimes hidden in the nested group its easy to miss a outer planet. Im finding this noticeable because Im using a reduced size (floating) solar system map. So alot of things are being put into nested view.. even when they are several au apart. TLDR - would like planets to always display and not get nested.

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................... .
I like the new display better. Sorry.
Looks cleaner and is less 'hey I am loud super bright UI, ignore the pretty spacescape and look at me!'
Also not even sure why you would need anoms and sigs displayed together apart from your intial eyeball of the system.
If your ratting bm the anoms your going to run. and then set ignore all. Any new anoms or sigs appear you can immediately see them. Also you have local so if I jump though a wormhole into your ratting system, you have plenty of time to run away unless your afk.
Im assuming that if sigs and anoms are not refreshing then that is probably a bug that will get fixed. (haven't noticed it myself)

Any progress on this ? For me this is by far the biggest issue with the new changes. Seperating the dscan and probe scan window is not a solution. Id rather not play the game if it means needing to have yet another window obscuring the view of space. Otherwise just feels like im playing spreadsheets.

Agree. The dscan presets really need the name of the preset displayed (as we had before)
I need to change my preset as I warp around systems Sometimes I just want ships other times I need ships and structures or ships and wrecks etc etc.
Now I cant tell what preset Im in unless I click on the drop down box. Its really annoying and inconvenient.
CCP Please fix !

This has nothing to do with fear of change. If the new system would on all levels be just as good and (preferably) on some levels surpassing the old scan-system in quality, I would start using the new system in a heartbeat. Remember, it's a tool we use. Functionality should go above aesthetics.
I live in a WH so I scan for signatures for alteast an hour every day. I combat scan every 2nd-3rd day. For me the new system is easier to use, quicker to scan and more enjoyable to look at. The only thing I dislike about the system is the removal of the display of the dscan preset names.
So I can see its hard for CCP because.. what they are seeing is opinions and personal preference. some people prefer the new and some prefer the old.

Agreed. I can barely see the background. IMO its subtle and cool.
Might be monitor settings. Some people may have their monitors brightness/contrast set in such a way that empasises the backround more than they find desirable.
I spent quite a bit of time with my monitor/gpu contrast/brightness settings until I found levels that were optimal for the way I like eve. Would suggust others also look at this. Because every monitor and every game renders colours differently so u do need to adjust to get the best experience.
