I seem to have noticed something recently that I do not remember happening before.

I lock onto about 6-9 targets and send out my drones and start firing.

As the screen gives me my messages of my drone damage, my damage, and the info from enemy damage, those messages now seem to overlap at the base of the locked target icons.

If there are enough of the, you can no longer see the distance to target in the locked target icon. You have to use the overview window with it.

Is it possible to move the messages down by about 1 line or so.

If eve monitors its boards, someone at ccp should have read this post and either agreed that its a bug and put it on a list - or didnt care and it will be unfixed.

Why not just move your locked targets to another part of the screen? Would be easier than CCP allocating their dwindling workforce to work on a very small problem, especially as distance to target is on the overview anyway.

I didn't know you could move the "locked icons" on the top of your screen anywhere....

Yes you can. There's a (very) small icon just next to the overview at the top. Right click on that and you can move the icons around to suit you.

Will post a screen shot of it for you when I get a chance or someone else could be kind enough to do it.

As promised, screenshots of the icon you need to move the locked targets anywhere on screen.

Screenshot of locked icons

That picture shows where the icon is after you have locked something. Once you have locked something, left click and hold on the icon highlighted. You can now drag the locked icons to anywhere on your screen that suits you best.

You can also right click that icon and set your locked items to vertical as well.

Screenshot of locked icons change

Picture above just to show this in action.

Hope this helps.
