Can you still do it?
I only see the role panel zoom, which cuts off the sensors.

I've not figured out how yet. It is a total pain as it was really useful when docked and the menu was open. Could focus on the sensor panel and request launch. Now I have to back right out of the menu before requesting. A simple thing but v.annoying!

I swear, you could make a comedy act out of these guys.
If you get used to a game feature and then have it suddenly yanked away, you might be an FD customer.
Dear FD ...

... About this bug...
Never really saw the point of looking closer at the radar so I never used it. In fact I unbound it so I wouldn't accidentally choose it. Then had to rebind when the Role panel was brought in.
Because I am old and my eyesight is not as good as it once was, I am considering lowering the game resolution from 1080p to 720p to make it easier to read things. Or I could just have more to drink and say "Screw it" !

Instead of lower res, get a larger monitor Loriath!

That doesn't help. I have a 32" monitor, but I still can't focus on anything closer than several feet away without glasses. Get the bigger monitor, and go to 1440p, but get some 1.25 or 1.50 cheaters so you can see it.
Btw, I never used the sensor zoom too much. That's probably why it took me 6 weeks to notice it was gone.
But, stilll - Dear FD ... couldn't they have just assigned the role panel to the 5 key?

Oh hell...there is no way I could use the PC without my prescription glasses. My wife still gets away with readers from the drug store, but I'm a little worse off.

I just did earlier in 2015. My old 21 inch dies so I picked up a 24 inch 1080p and its going to have to last. A new PC is in the planning for this year, and next year the 34-37 inch 1440p 21;9 screens should be down to a much better price. Then I will get a new one and use this as a secondary.

You'll love the 21:9 monitor when the time comes. I've got a 34" and it's the bees knees.
