CCP Punkturis continues to bring news of user interface improvements for EVE, and the latest is an option to scale the UI according to one's preference.

The blog can be found here, and your feedback can be left here in the thread as always. Also, don't be shy to jump on the Singularity test server to try it out for yourself before the upcoming Winter Expansion.

Indeed you are... :))

I'm looking forward to trying this out on SISI - my window layouts already leave me short of real-estate, but this could well be very tempting. Thank you...

I welcome all UI changes, please keep them coming and allow us OPTIONS!

I really wish I could move those buttons on the HUD, so much wasted space, I'd rather run them all along the bottom of my screen but instead I must look at space through them. Please keep the changes, and keep giving us options!!
Always ... Never ... Forget to check your references.   Peace out Zulu! Hope you land well!

Well, someone's bound to ask, so I might as well...

Are there any plans to devote a whole, seperate, tab to the UI Scaling - rather than such a simple drop-down?

For example, some industrialists might want to scale-down the actual 'HUD' buttons, and local window Pirate, but scale-up their Corp-chat window... lol, terrible example -- but do you see there being much room for customization, later...?

ccp can now buy me a better monitor so I can use resolutions where I can use this feature.

40:20 eyesight means you need to get a pretty good sized IPS.

Please let us scale different elements of the UI separately!

"We took a look at our backlog and the tech that was in the pipelines and did some re-prioritizing and decided to bring you *drum roll* UI Scaling! "

Just like that you added something usefull and often suggested and asked to EVE?

Have you no manners sir? No sense of place and history? This is CCP, not some high yield, effective, performing features factory! For Shame! In the old days...

Great news!

However, that is a really bad Domi fit.

Will the station window still bump my overview and selected item window half way across the screen from their original position, even though the station interface doesn't need to interact with those windows at all as they never appear together at the same time, except for a brief second during docking when said annoying self-readjustment of windows occurs?

This looks promising.

I'm still hoping for some way of customizing the session change timer; moving it around, scaling it, coloring it, etc. It's one of the most crucial pieces of UI and can mean the difference between losing a ship and getting out with hull intact. It's a pity it's being drowned alive up there.

(If we could also move the world info box around a little bit that'd be all I want for christmas!)
