And yet it'll be 18 months before they actually fix the parts of the UI they broke that actually cause people daily frustration.

(and in the process they'll break every other goddamn part of it but the parts they fixed)

Outsource to Bethesda, your bug incidence will decrease.

Here's an idea for your next 'fix':

Import/Export settings.

Thank you very much.

Window pinning as far as I can tell. Also it seems that different window layouts are saved on a per-character basis rather than a per-account basis. Or so they tell me...

Or they know how to back up the settings and restore them when it gets reset.

Myeah, at least the re-arranging of the windows and channels and whatnot is an easily detectable chore (although this shouldn't happen).

The unexpected however is the orbit ranges apparently resetting as well :/ so as a friendly reminder: double-check !
.. sucks when you find out about it in combat and the default is something completely different than what you want.
oh well

i just locked an open door.. strange, yet symbolically compelling.

My guess is that the change of adding pinning back reset the UI settings. But, pinning doesn't do anything other than transparentize the window... so CCP messed something up, again.


And backing up the settings doesn't keep them, as they seem to be overwritten on startup.Sad

Doesn't look like window pinning is fixed. Click pin and can still move the window around. Pin needs to be fixed. ASAP. Screw fuel block change over... fix window pinning!

Seriously, is this 1988?? Why can't CCP figure a way to export and import UI layouts?

Even a game as old as Everquest has the ability to do this. And don't even get me started on custom UI skinning. Yes, again, even EQ has it.

from what I know, window pinning has been changed.. It does not fix the windowposition...it just makes the window more transparent. So it is working as intended since crucible..

Personally it was like that for me since I played the game...pinned windows were allways movable and all, and I do not see what you are missing. Maybe pinning had a magic secret function I never found.

Well silly me forgot there is the setting in the General Settings menu to select "Lock windows when pinned." And of course, with the full #$%#$%#$ UI reset that is not selected.

Pinning DOES now work if you set that option in General settings.

No, not working as intended. They did admit it was a mistake and that they were going to fix it. Which they seem to have done. And yes, you are missing the super secret function that I've mentioned above. :)
