especially for people that need to use a fully equipped POS in space the new inventory can be a little bit annoying. while I think the idea of this new inventory is great, it lacks some usability we had in the old system or didn't need them. so here are some ideas of improvements that would be great and very helpful out of my view as a producer.
a) make a "go back" or "go up" button.
if you are using the inventory with a collapsed tree to the left, once you open a container, you should be able to go back to the parent containter/window you came from. it would also be cool, if one could utilize the back button some mice have for this.
windows explorer has had this button for years now, as have web browsers, and it has proven to be very useful.
b) tabs for corphangars in the right hand window
again, if you have the left hand side collapsed, you have no possibility to work your way through the different divisions of the corp hangar of, for example an assembly array. let these divisions have tabs like they used to. just above the item area.
c) pin certain windows / containers to the neocom
I would really like to have fast access to the ship hangar like it was before....so, wouldn't it be great if you could pin a container to the neocom? access your ships straight away, maybe your ammo container, or a certain filter that leads you straight to your own personal exotic dancers.
if this is possible, have an option (generally for the neocom) to pin stuff to the bottom, so it doesn't get caught in the middle between notifications and stuff
d) make pessing the inventory open the inventory as inventory even if another, formerly detatched window is open
at the moment i have a window with the market deliveries open, just to move out the stuff. so i have opened it in a new window, made it very small, collapsed the tree view and all. if i want to get back to the inventory, i will have to use the deliveries window after i have closed the last other remaining windows. now to do this i would have to pull the window bigger, uncollapse the tree view, open a new inventory and go on looking, what i was looking for
wouldnt it be better in this case to have the inventory window pop up again, once the original is gone and only a detatched window remains...
e) sorting of the tree on the left hand side
I have ships, lots of ships, I also have a pos....with lots of guns and lots of arrays, all shown in this new tree view on the left of the inventory. that is fantastic! really! but there are too many of them. too many arrays that are still copying for a month I dont want to look at. can we please be able to control how these things are sorted, maybe even have them filtered (e.g. only caldari frigates, only equipment assembly arrays and corporate hangar arrays etc...). at the moment I think the only way of controling this, is changing names of ships/pos modules, as they are sorted by name (I have unfortunately not found any other way to do so).
