Is there a way to use a keyboard shortcut to warp to 0 to a bookmark in the system? Or is using the dropdown "Warp to within..." menu the only way? That's a scarily slow process. Or maybe I just need glasses. Smile

Nope, there are a myriad of ways they could make it easier, but they don't, this leads me to believe it is by design.

Not sure how, but I think you can make the text bigger on that menu.

If you know what direction the bookmark is and have the pushpins enabled then you can click on the little pin in space and warp to it that way, instead of navigating the menu. It's not really much faster though.

Right click the bookmark itself rather than right clicking in space, that is.

I guess another alternative is to have your people and places window open, at least then you don't need the hand eye coordination to navigate the menu. I tried that for a while but decided I would rather have the screen space.

I'd prefer if bookmarks could be added to the overview.


Bonus points if bookmarks folders could be set to visible in overview individually.

All of my safe spot and off grid marks could be added to my GTFO tab. My asteroid, station, and gate marks could be added to another tab. That'd be nice.

New frigates and dessies, though.

I generally have People and Places docked in with my Overview.


But yes, being able to ad bookmarks to the overview &/or have them appear in the Selected Items window would be very, very useful.


It would also be nice if there was an easier way to share and synchronise bookmarks across characters and/or accounts.

Always have your people and places up, it's honesty as useful as dscan.

You can double click the header to collapse it up to minimize the screen real estate but you should generally have it on screen at all times.

Hold s and left click on the bookmark icon in space. Warps you to the default warp to distance.

Right-click the groups or individual folders, then select "Open Group Window."
You can do this with groups (Personal, Corp, and Agent), as well as individual folders.

You can't use hotkeys with it (S, A, Q, for instance), but the radial menu works perfectly, as does the right-click context menu.

Just be warned that it doesn't update until you've closed the pop-out window and re-opened it. Changes in systems won't update which bookmarks are green, for instance, and new bookmarks won't show up.

If those two things would be fixed, it would probably be one of the most powerful tools in the game. Even with them, though, it's a life-saver (especially when living in a wormhole).
