Hi,

I have couple of suggestions for bookmarks which I couldn't find listed elsewhere.


  1. At the moment bookmarks - when sorted by label, or in the right click menu - are not completely sorted alphabetically/numerically. For example, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 appears as 1, 10, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9. This is different to how other celestials appear in the right click contextual menu. For example moon 10 would appear after moon 9, however if I produced bookmarks to this effect, they would sort differently. Perhaps it would be possible to set these to sort as above. Both could be available as to not upset those that are used to the current sorting.

  2. When opening a bookmark folder in a separate window there is some wasted space on the left before the little bookmark icon appears. Furthermore the I do not think the bookmark icon is needed. Screen space is at a premium and getting this space back would be wonderful.

  3. In addition to the above point. These windows could (after selection an option) only show the bookmarks in the current system.

  4. If the width of the right click menu regarding bookmarks would be increased, I would be very grateful.


Cheers,
H

1. It's how most numbering systems work, unless there are preceding zeroes (seriously, go save a bunch of things labeled as 1,2,3,...10,11,12 and you'll see what I mean). Granted, it's stupid ... but that's the way it is.

2. neither here nor there on this one.

3. that'd be nice, actually

4. see 2.

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

I agree on point 1. However , currently, the client uses both sorting methods. In the right click menu, objects are sorted as if the preceeding zero is not required, i.e. moon 10 after moon 9, however my bookmarks, in the same right click menu, are sorted the other way. I would not mind if they were both 1, 10, 2, it would just be useful if they were consistent so in the heat of battle I know if i'm going to the bottom of the list or the top of the list.
