From last patches i have this. Every dock some of my windows jump to the top of Eve client window.... Every undock i fix them again.....

Locking (or which name this button with point and circle around on windows has?) doesn't help.
Bug reported like month ago. "We know about this problem and working on it".

If it happens to your right hand windows which jump when the station list and stuff comes up, you can circumvent this by not having your windows docked all to the right but the minimum distance away from the right border and they don't get jumbled anymore.

If you reset your window positions then clear your cache it should fix the problem. It was fixed a while back, but you needed to reset your window positions and clear your cache as well.

I use a non-standard window layout in the game (a lot of right-side stuff) and the station information window plays havoc with that. Be nice if the station info window remembered where you left it last but not sure if it does this.

Go to your ESC menu. There is an option called something like "Window Snap Distance"... or something very similar, IDR the exact name.

Set it to 0


this will fix your problem without having to clear your cache. I had the same problem with my cargo holds and chat windows.

I usually don't have issues with jumping windows (after getting everything into a decent position where closely bordering (but not snapped) windows aren't going to go mental when they overlap.

With some of the recent UI 'fixes' (overall good mind you) I have had the overview go mental on undocking and also chat windows in the bottom right. They have no snap issues other than possibly getting confused between windows open while docked or undocked and somehow mixing the two states up and throwing windows about seemingly at random.
