I closes it, alright, but it also engages the selected command. I would prefer if it would only close the menu.

And yes... you can set a shortcut that will cut the delay of opening the menu. I have for example set it to Shift, then when I want to target some bad people, I hold down Shift, click on them and drag the mouse down very fast right away and the are magically targeted. You can set the shortcut in ESC menu>shortcuts>general, and I think the option is called "instant action menu" CCP karkur | User Interface Programmer | Team Pony Express | @CCP karkur |

It's find that you tell us about the scanner radial menu, but please note that my team is mostly interested in the inspace radial menu. But regarding the scanner one, it actually also works to click the scanner button... then the menu appears and you can click the icons, you do not have to hold the button down (but in that case you have to click the actually buttons in the menu I think).
When I click on an item in the overview it selects it, and i have to hold the left click button down for a sec before the radial menu pops up. I think that is working correctly; however, the button next to the HUD for the scanner doesnt operate on this principle. When one is used to just simply clicking one time to open the scanner window, it is a bit clumsy to realize that when you clicked intead of the window opening, a menu pops up with choices. I think it should work like the other parts of the radial menu where you need to click and hold the mouse button to get the menu to pop up. |

I don't understand why we haven't kept any consistency with the old radial menu. Take a look at these examples:
http://i.imgur.com/nDNGaUu.png
There's no reason for functions to swap around randomly like that. What's more, the 2nd example has the 'look at' function vanish only to be replaced by a blank button.
If this can be sorted out then the new menus would be an improvement. |

... Or you can also hold down Ctrl and left clic to target bad people... Why do you want to bother with a cursor move + left clic hold/release in addition ?
Edit : Random though, why not allowing us to have a shortcut that acts as a clic to instantly open the radial menu ? Like wheel clic or custom button clic ?
Currently you're suggesting shift + clic. I'm not suggesting mousewheel hold down + left clic of course, I'm suggesting a simple mousewheel clic that would act as your shift + clic. G££ <= Me |

All right, you got me
In this situation I recognize that this new radial menu is useful (and this change would be worth it anyway, just for the fact of being able to set a custom orbit / keep a range / warp to distance "on the fly"). Yet, if we were able to have another shortcut acting as a clic (as said in my "EDIT :" above), it would be even more awesome than having to hold down a new key. (Of course it probably represents a lot of work for a minimal addition. Of what... 0.5 second-gain ?) G££ <= Me |

The new menu is pretty nice.
If you select the warp to range it would be better if you had 10 or 1 km steps. Right now i can only use 0 10 20 30 50 70 100. Would be great if warp to would be more like the orbit range selection.
Would also be great to use the menu on the watchlist.
If i move the mouse fast while selecting range options it gets a bit laggy.
For ships with Fleet Hangar and Shipmaintance bay I'm missing an option to acces those in the menu maybe you could add them in the second layer? |

I seem to be getting it pop up accidentally more than I did before. Has the time left mouse has to be held down been reduced? It seems a little too sensitive.
Otherwise, looking good. "In the age of information, ignorance is a choice." |

It's a bit anoying that you have to go back to the center to close the menu without doing something. Right klick to closes the menu but it performs the selectet action. Would be good if you could add rightklick to cancel the menu without performing stuff |

Woo, s.o. thinks exactly the same as I do :)
Apart from that, the "warp to" option is on the right side and to warp to 100 you have to move your mouse quite far to the right - if you have your overview on the right side of the screen as standard, you might run out of screen before your mouse gets to 100km. Quite small issue though. |

Found a Bug
If you want to warp to a fleet member using the menu it says.
This person is either not a member of your fleet or not present in this solar system.

I am a an avid user of hot-keys and the radial menu has not much to offer for me sadly. Bookmarking is the only thing I use and only because there's no hot-key for that. (<-hint)
I might even go as far as to say it gets in the way when looking around sometimes. I suggest adding a hot-key for expanding the menu or at the very least I'd like to be be able to set a long(er) delay for it. But a hot-key would be prefered, I'd just use middle mouse button then. |

I shall not lie. Whilst I found old Radial Menu ugly, inconvenient and useless, I love the new Radial Menu. It is so useful and charming, that I want to hug it to death. However, they are far from perfect. Here's my feedback.
1. Unknown Derp - Radial Menu and Target Locks
Once, thus far, the Radial Menu has weirdly derped for me in a way, that whenever I clicked on one of Locked Targets (you know, the circular thingies that are by default near Selected Item window), the Radial Menu was popping up immediately, overriding normal click, and thus denying change of target. I had to manually click the targets in Overview window to switch targets.
I used random combo of keys to 'unstuck' it, so I believe it may have something to do with the Instant Action Menu key. However, pressing that key alone did nothing, so it might not.
2. Suggestions
- I agree with the previous posters. Right-Clicking should close-cancel the Radial Menu without issuing any command.
- I have mixed feeling with the cursor resetting its position back to the centre after issuing command. It is both useful and uncomfortable. I got used to it quite easily, though, and wouldn't have it any other way. Perhaps an option "Centre cursor position after using Radial Menu" true-false would be in order.
- Might I also suggest adding radial menus to the following?
- People and Places - Places list. It would be convenient to be able to warp to bookmarked places using quick Radial Menu, without needing to go trough all the cascading menus. - As previously said by other posters: Fleet Menu, Watchlist.
- Adding the access options to certain PoS modules would also be a bliss. Even though the things are now accessible trough Inventory, it would be nice to have alternative way of opening the stuff. I would like to see:
- Ship Maintenance Array: Access Vessels, Store Vessel - Corporate Hangar Array: Access Storage Or even unified "Access Starbase Inventory" on any PoS module, perhaps?
- A very out-of-a box suggestion, that is rather trivial to the gameplay, but would perhaps look interesting. What if you are piloting, for example, Dreadnought, with the Siege Module. Wouldn't it be nice to have the "Enter Siege Mode" in the Radial Menu as well? Yes, I know, it's already on hotbar - that's why I said it is trivial. Just a neat addition to making Radial Menus even more attractive. That could apply to Rorqual as well, and any other ship that can enter special mode.
This is all I can think of at the moment, though I shall speak more when I catch more bugs/suggestions. |

CCP karkur wrote:- Warp To
- Keep at Range

Wouldn't it be better to group navigation and informational buttons together instead of jumbling them all together?
Ideally, my menu would look like this, going counter-clockwise (or anti-clockwise, or whatever) from the top:
- Align/approach
- Warp To
- Keep at Range
- Show info
- Primary Action
- Extra
- Target
- Orbit
This puts the navigation buttons in the more used top positions and the hated "Primary Action" button in a non-"mission-critical" location because it's actually the most useless, and oftentimes detrimental, button to push in a stressful combat situation. |

I click on the scanner button, try clicking to the side, it "shows" the click on the screen but doesn't do anything. I have to move the cursor up to see the arrow, move down, click, then the cursor appears in the middle of the screen.

This isn't completely related to the radial menu in space, but it is a radial menu:
The scanner menu is obnoxiously sticky. The mouse keeps resetting to the center of the button when clicking and selecting options. It's behavior is pretty unnatural. Hey, as a dude that lives in lowsec, you should read my idea on how to "fix" it... in Blog format, complete with a spreadsheet! http://3xxxd.blogspot.com/2012/09/how-to-buff-lowsec.html |

two things
- the wheelthingy is hardly usable as of now, cause that expanded option thingy is so close to warp-to... ina fight, I can't use it as it constantly navigates me to the advanced stuff when i get near that on my way to 'warp'
- can we have that with our setup colours? Blue is quite nice and neutral, but it is competing with every single UI element. right now it's a sleek and elegant UI and that candywheel in the middle.
edit: at least put that expanded thingy to the left, where now the info is. Can drop the info behind that, just that I don't die on TQ cause I can't reach warp-to in time. Screw that thing, using hotkeys again. |

I add my voice to the several comments about the resetting cursor location with the scanner menu, though I know that's not entirely your purview. Nonetheless, you should think about why we're posting it here, because it is A radial menu.
Other than that I have had some issues where I bring up a radial menu and then my mouse is "locked" to like half the screen until I close said radial menu. I mostly get this with the scanner menu.
For the power users, can we get an adjustable mouse-down time for the radial menu to pop up? |

Mouse sensitivity is different when a radial menu ia active then when no radial menu is active. For me in particular it gets lower when a radial menu is visible. I'd like my mouse sensitivity to stay the same, with or without a radial menu. |

I have also noticed that the only way to close the radial menu without having any options selected is by being in the middle of the radial menu, while being outside of it makes it choose the one it's alligned with, no matter how far the mouse is. Is that intended?
Yes, I am also getting major lag and slow down when using the radial menu. This is a real shame as the radial menu is a really nice feature. Hopefully it can be fixed. |

One suggestion, could we have a sticky radial menu. Ie when you click an object and activate the menu it stays up until you either right click or click somwhere else in space or click a button on the menu itself. Really loving the radial menu though so far, will be great once its sorted out. |

radial menu, you can make small change, now if you left click at scaner button you get radial manu, if you right click nothing happened, i think you can make little change here; left clic you open scaner window, right click you get radial menu. |

I use the tablet in absolute positioning mode, and it's worked fine for many years in EVE, but the new radial menus play havoc with it. It seems a new input layer, with odd dimensions is generated when when the radials open (even with a mouse it seems to have weird boundaries), which completely screws the absolute positioning.
For reference: I use a Wacom Bamboo and Intuos (absolute mode), Win 7 (64), play EVE in a window.
I'm sure the art dept guys could possibly replicate this issue? |

This feedback is for the new scanner button radial menu, not the in-space radial menu.
I don't like how I click the scanner button and expect the scanner window to be shown, but instead I'm left with an unsatisfied radial menu, and have to inspect the various options to get what I want.
I think a more intuitive behaviour for this button would be as follows:
- Mouse down on scanner button = radial menu shown
- Mouse up within button bounds = radial menu hidden and system scanner shown
- Mouse up outside of the button bounds, but in the direction of a specific radial menu segment = radial menu item activated.
A click on the button would display the system scanner as everyone is used to.
A mouse down followed by a drag + release would activate radial menu elements. |

I hope the option to reassign radial menu to middle mouse button is missing because of bug and wasn't removed intentionally because when activated with left mouse button it gives too much accident menu activations for me. And if with old menu accident activations (if not reassigned) could be just annoying, new menu not only pops up but issues random command even if mouse cursor isn't within menu due to new design. Don't want to sound exaggerating but it really turns gaming experience into nightmare (as a person interested is a graphics programming I spent good ten minutes examining new distortion effect on the gates and constant menu popups instead of camera rotations almost drove me mad).
Option to adjust menu activation delay could somehow diminish the issue but ability to remap menu to another mouse button (like we can now) or entirely disable it would be much better. |
