This is getting fairly annoying. I've tried resetting my UI window position, and it didn't help any.
When you do an info on an item, it always opens in the top left of the UI, even after moving it. The same thing happens when you open cans / wrecks, the game positions the window slightly to the left of the middle - bottom of the screen.
Can we PLEASE have them display where we move them to?

This is very annoying, but not worse than pinned windows jumping around because you close another window.

When I open an info window in space, it appears somewhere in the middle of the screen, but it moves all other windows (pinned or not) "out of the way", which is even more annoying.
It's interesting to see how many variants of UI bugs there are. Are we even playing the same game?

I think the guy who wrote the boot.ini upgrade script got demoted to the UI department.

Lets not forget the inability of the game to remember settings. I, for one, do NOT need to see the pretty little pictures of an item as I have superb reading comprehension skills. Why is there not a global setting that shows all contents as a list instead of the default icons?
There there is the nasty habit of windows stacking when you do not want them stacked. You're ratting or mining and are dumping into a jet can. After you create a jetcan, the very next wreck you open causes that window to stack on the jetcan window. Moving it off causes your camera to rotate until you release the wreck window. Subsequent wrecks will open in their own window until such time as you create a new jetcan. Oh, and it also defaults back to the icons and not list.

Not quite true. Cans/wrecks share the same position as your hangar/ships window. It's still pretty stupid though. The fact that in this day and age CCP are still unable to create a stable and user friendly UI is frankly ridiculous.
It doesn't maintain/track focus properly, windows move around without user input, z-order is often violated, it's single threaded, it steals crazy amounts of CPU and to cap it all menus are poorly thought out.
But the worst thing of all is that I (and others) were complaining about most of those items over four years ago. I think my first post on these forums was a complaint about the font size, lol!
