Hi CCP,

Three quality of life improvements I would love to see.

Would it be possible to have a way of saving the window positions and layouts. I know that I would like to be able to have different window arrangements based on the current activity. I do not need all the same windows open for hauling as I do for fleets or PvP. Secondly to this, being able to store and share the layouts in a similar way to overviews would be amazing. Not having to copy over system files to get all my screens setup the same or being able to share a setup with a corp mate.

The second QOL improvement I would love - and one that we used to have - is to bring back the characters current location in the launcher window. The old launcher used to show the system and status of each character, now we would need to open the client and see on the character selection screen where they are, with the new launcher being able to launch direct into a character this seems counterproductive.

Lastly - allow the system info, route, search & timer areas to be moved to a different location in the window, or even totally removed/hidden.

Only small changes but they would make life easier.  
Thanks CCP.  
Senda

I would love to see the ship’s hud and that little info area be movable around the screen, maybe with their own zoom as well for older eyes on wider screens.

I accidentally stumbled on a feature that already does this. There’s a row of icons above the system same in the top left of the screen. You can use them to toggle these UI elements on or off.

I would like to see stackable menu tabs that expand to the left or right when the tab is scrolled over.
