The Confirmation button for reprocessing is on the right side, while the cancel button is on the left. This is different from almost all other dialogue options, not only within EVE, but within general software, as well.

To start with, using only EVE as an example, let's take a look at dialogues where the "Yes" or "Confirm" button is on the left side:

"Yes" / "Confirmation" button on the LEFT side:

I'll stop, now, as I think I've made my point.
So, let's go to the things where the "Yes" or "Confirm" option is on the right side, shall we?

"Yes" / "Confirmation" button on the RIGHT side:

CCP, please make the Reprocessing confirm / cancel button locations uniform with everything else: "confirm" should be on the left, "cancel" should be on the right.

Even if you got a point, I think this wouldn't neccessarily fit on top of any present list of priority. If some devs are bored, they might consider it.

Eh, something like this would be a "little things" change. There's a lot of said "little things" out there, too.

 Talk is cheap, but Void S and Quake L are cheaper.

Has anyone considered that they switched the buttons in order to prevent accidentally reprocessing things in a rush?

This in just what is on the test server though, so it may change.

If you don't follow the rules, neither will I.

I'm quite happy to see this. Thank you!
