Sorry, not getting it ... how is right-clicking and selecting from a list of non-highlighted text easier then having the P&P window open (or via key) and clicking a button once ?

Your options is effort and needs concentration, where the available method is down to muscle memory and super fast.

-1 for not using the right tools.

You can drag the window size into nothingness and still have that one button. ... now small imagination and limited attentiveness would be an excuse .. small screen - no.

Just because there is one way to do it, doesn't mean it shouldn't be done. Honestly I don't see the harm in it. I wouldn't say it's a 'top priority' implement, but for NPE sake I think it should be thrown in at some point.

Ever seen a hoarders apartment ? Add this and that , can't hurt, comfort and and ... the right-click-cap already has too many options, adding more to the 'easy'-list will make the list 'not' easy after a while. So be a bit more selective.

I find the 'reconnect to lost drones' already highly uncomfortable there - my cursor is usually in the top right corner for all combat and navigation issues, why do I have to move all the way down to click a tiny space instead of using short wrist muscle memory movement to the windows that are currently used for that ?! And I can move the P&P window to any place I like, not the capacitor...

Think before 'just liking' something and about the consequences and further consequences if continued on the same path...

"Save Location" is already part of your ship's Radial Menu. In the time it takes to right-click the cap and select the option, you can get to the appropriate part of the Radial.

Not supported.

That is assuming you operate zoomed in at a level you can easily select your ship, some of us like to see what is around us on the grid and don't fly titans, so can't easily access our ships radial menu.

Gets a +1 from me, although the forum won't let me like the OP any more :/

Despite having a large screen I don't always have the P&P window open where I can bookmark, this would be a handy thing to have. Alternatively a shortcut to do it would be nice!
