I can't type smoothly anymore between station undocks/docks and system changes. Whenever I do, all my windows lose focus, the UI freaks out and I start accidentally closing chat windows, clicking radio buttons somehow and messing up all sorts of things. PLEASE FIX THIS, it makes communication in Eve difficult during travel periods.

Further, please please prevent "enter" from rejecting incoming convo requests. So many times I will hit enter to send a chat message and I reject a convo. These are things that can be easily prevented, CCP. Please do fix them.

I have the exact same problems. My UI freaks out when I am session changing, or undocking or whatever so much that my chat gets really screwed up.

PLEASE FIX!

Into what hellish places we will. Away from them we fly.

I've had the same problem with the UI freaking out on system changes. The chat channels jump around too when receiving a private convo. I've run into a problem where I send a private convo request, and then I continue typing in local. When the person accepts the convo, the cursor cycles through every chat channel as I'm typing before the private convo opens, leaving sentence fragments strewn across various chat tabs. That really isn't pleasant.

Mmm agreed, my favorite is typing in a chat channel and getting like a convo or fleet if I don't notice it and press enter it goes away and is not to be found again.

Also my chat windows are moving around when I dock Sad

This sounds like a bug that's been around forever.
Try changing Window Snap Distance in General Settings to Do not snap.

Turn it on whenever you want to move windows around and have them line up nicely, turn it of again as soon as you've finished moving stuff around.
