Personally it feels like I'm fighting the UI now instead of quickly and efficiently activating ships and moving cargo around.
I hope CCP does something to fix it, fighting the UI is not good.

Yeah new inventory tab freakin sucks. Give me back my old container windows.

Sycophants suck too, grief them.

Currently, the same sorting view option is forced on ship and item hangars, and this is not acceptable. I want my ship hangar in icons, and my item hangars as list view. Thank you.

Just my 2 cents here. I tried it for a few days, scrapping is a nightmare now. Going from roughly 30 seconds with 25+ cans to looting into the hold to over 3 minutes, that's not productive. If CCP is at least considering give back an option for the old system as a function, I'll be there. When sorting items between corp, members lockers, my own (ammo, loot, etc), the new way is so aggravating. There is no longer ease of use and flow of movement when dealing with ship hangers, containers of different locations.

I appreciate all the hard work that goes into coding, and some of the new stuff is pretty cool. This combined inventory however is a turnoff.

This was aggravating enough for me to make my first post here, normally I'm a adapt and over come kind of guy, but even the shift clicking is of no help.

What you need is a method to automate a function to one mouse click and store that function in the new inventory UI.
Then when you go to do that function again you can just click on your self made function clickable link, one click and the function is done. Such a tweak should be very possible to do with the new inventory UI but CCP would have to make the modification to allow us to use such a function.

Example target the can then click on a self made loot all function which would be in the list of items on the left side of the inventory UI. All loot is moved from the can into your hold. Contraband would trigger a prompt do you realy want this in your hold?
Yes or no selectable choice. Then target next can and again click on your loot all function etc... Would that be helpfull for you?
I would think it would be even faster than the old system.

Sounds a bit like the macros we had back on wow. Macro's would help in your example but I tend to believe that they would do more harm then good in EVE (afk farming, or 1 click target, fire, something to that effect) but that's just me remembering their flaws. I'm not privy to the mechanics of EVE myself, still stumbling around now but i manage as an end user.

I've tried the new system again for about 2 hours after work just now, still not working in any manner of what one would call a flow, you need to see, well, i need to see multiple containers open side by side to sort (OCD?) Maybe it's just meh, the rest seems to be well in place and interesting enough but the step backwards, consolidating containers that have no relevance with each other is just plain frustrating. Bailing for the night early, very disappointed.

I appreciate you taking your time to offer up a mental alternative, ultimately, I don't believe that it would fly...
