I see what you mean about using that view from the colonies screen. Doing it that way you have to double click the planet, then select the queues crane from the orders menu in the lower right (which has a bug I discovered in that it blanks out if I minimize the game and then go back to it).
It would require less clicks to have that facilities view filter in the construction queues menu. Not sure if I'm making myself clear in what I'm trying to do.

No no, I ment you use those two as part of your custom layout. I found those two on the list of colonies, I didn't look on the construction screen.

Got it Tim. Thanks! Is there a way to temporarily disable hotkeys? I was trying to name a Trade Treaty, well Trade Treaty, and the tutorial window keeps popping up and down. I'd suspect this could interfer with ship & planet names with T's in them??

Yes, you can change it so that you have nothing, just the name, or the full description.

OK, I looked under empire options and don't see it, where do I go to disable hotkeys? Thanks for the help!

[tmcc]

Go to the main menu at the top left and select options, then scroll down to 'help text' and select the option you wish.

Hmm, I'm not talking about the popup help, I'm talking about the hotkeys. Anytime I press T, the tutorial window comes up and I can not type the letter T anywhere in the game without that tutorial window popping up and down. If I want to name something, like a trade agreement, with the name "Trade Agreement" I can't type the letter T without that Tutorial window coming up and down?

I think they should have made the "T"utorial window require a shift first, like the other hotkeys?

Sorry, my mistake. You can change all that too. Go back to the main menu and then select controls. You can customize the hot keys to whatever you want.
