Can we have a compact display option in local, with just the player name and the standings tag? This could allow us to see around a 100 players in local without scrolling. Or perhaps hide players in fleet or with blue standings in local. Scrolling through local all the time isn't fun.

This is the thread for posting marriage proposals to CCP Punkturas, right?

Because this is pretty awesome.

It would really cool if you could switch the guns to the other side of the central hud. I dual box in window mode with the screens mostly overlapping. i can on screen move one window to the left of the lap top screen and move the hud to the far left and while the screens are overlapping I can see how the cap is doing, But when I switch to the left screen, the window below which is moved all the way to the right I can't move the hud far enough right to see the cap status. Hope this makes sense...
Another option could be to just add the cap level in the watch list.

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.

You guys at CCP are on FI-YAH!

Can't wait for the winter expansion. You have totally turned the ship around. Well done.

Thanks ccp, this is a needed change, I'll go on Sisi and play with it. I liked the new font, but on a number of the windows (fitting window was a glaring example) I couldn't see all the text, as the font was too big. Hopefully this change to logical pixels will alleviate that. And being able to shrink or enlarge the UI is great.

Keep it up! Good Job!

Lines up perfectly with the other good stuff i have red about and seen working already on the test server.

Very easy to use and doing its job.

Even though nothing has been released yet i already like the game again and am excited when talking about it.

Well done!

What a horrible fit on your ship! P

Srsly tho this looks positive, on a first glance, got to see how it pans out for lower text. I like my text really small as it is.

+1 To the suggestion for being able to customize/scale individual UI separately and save in the same way as overview settings

would like to suggest including which chat channels/voice are open for a given profile as I use different channels when doing different things e.g. when mining I often sign into help channel but to switch to incursions I need to open armor/shield fleet channels and rearrange windows and overviews depending on if am doing DPS/Logi etc

Being able to autohide world map controls when scanning and going in and out rather than having it pop up in front of of my probes every time would be nice.

Being able to include an autoload for the IGB browser as part of this would also be great - having WH Dotlan page autoload when going scanning with a quick option to close it switch immediately to a PvP UI would be awesome
or eve survival for mission runners (I know all of them by heart now btw any chance of some new ones?)
