Thank you for your bugreport titled: Double clicking ship opens inventory in separate window even though "always open in separate windows" is ticked off

The issue you have described is not a bug, but a feature request.
Unfortunately we are not able to process feature requests and the proper way to have this reviewed by the developers is to post it on the Features and Ideas forum.

The issue here is that this is a bug report, which is only used for reporting bugs. While as you say, this feature might be a little illogical, it is working as it is currently intended and as such, is not a bug. To use an example (and this is not the best one but it´s late, so bare with me) this is akin to making a bug report about an imbalanced ship. Sure it doesn´t stand up to others in a fight, but it is working as it was designed the last time it was worked on. There is no bug that is causing it to be imbalanced. In order to get your issue to the developers that are responsible for the feature, you need to submit your feedback in the right location. All it really is in the end is that you need to talk to the right people, and we´re not them. Hopefully that helps. Fly Safe BH Volorcha

Well I guess I have to spell it out:

It makes no sense having double clicking ship always open the inventory in a separate window when the "always open in separate window" option is ticked off; it's very confusing right now.

I think the GM explained it quite well...

Really, how so? The only things said was first:

...and second:

The GM recognizes the feature is "a little illogical", so here I am making the feature request he proposed I do.Should we just accept features that are "a little illogical"? My point is clear and easy to fix, EVE needs more consistency in the UI.
