Hello,

Can we get the ability to choose overview setting from the list, instead of using active overview, which is sometimes does not represent the things we need to find on D-Scan?

Just like that: http://i.imgur.com/Spz3Vgz.png

If you don't want to use any of the overview profiles, you can simply choose "None" or "Show All" from the combo box.

What do you think?

Yes, this is a really good idea.

Often I'll switch to my 'travel' or 'celestials' overview tab to track someone down, then have change the tab back to my pvp tab to do the scan.

I've been wanting this bad.
For years.

It's pretty far up my list of WANT.

Also changing the range from meaningless KM to AU would be super useful.

I have a very easy way to convert.
Pull calculator out of accessories and set M1 to 149 597 871
when you next dscan just ctrl+c the dscan kilometers and then divide by M1 (149 597 871) and press result.
The number you get is AU.

While I agree that there should be a toggle AU/km they shouldn't make it AU only.
AU unit is pretty big and decimals would get nasty kinda like the way imperial system is moronic compared to metric. Blink


--EDIT--
Oh and don't forget to align the calculator button with dscan button position in height to make it super efficient.

Or you can just type "1500000 km in au" in Google Search.
