Horizons Map Use

Why is the map so difficult to use?

I.e. when one wants to goto a system you click on the Star and it should Highlight But no! I have to zoom in zoom out, move the map around then After a few minutes it lets me say yes I want to go there.

And That is another Point why is there not a simple HELP thread instead of having all these Board headings.

Simple WHY-O-WHY.

Oh while I am at it. Engineers! They YOU lot said that the Materials would be come more Common, what a load of twaddle (not aloud to say nasty words). I spent 2 days 8-9 hours per day, trying to find "Heat Dissipation Plates", ad before you say anything I was doing it in all the correct places and looking at the correct Signal sources and looking for mission rewards. Eventually one appeared.

Ok and where have the portraits gone out of the mission menus and the Crew lists. I am not one for the EYE CANDY but it used to work. Not Now.

Look I no it is because I am using a High Res 4K screen (40") 3840 x 2160. But FD must get it right to us Old Gits.
 
As one "Old Git" to another, you should be happy as using the map in VR is insanely hard!!!

Ah! Never a truer word unfortunately I am one of those members of the human race who can not use VR as it sends my Brain Loopy. Still for All my Ravings this is a great game <grin>.
I have Just started a New Game the version as beebtrek still in use I purchased another Version as I wanted to follow a different path to the Top.
But the things I mentioned in the 1st message seem to have cropped up recently I am wondering if it is 4K related.
 
It is Resolution Related. Frontier will be getting a Ticket Raised relating to the above issues. I will not stand for inferior quality with a game which is supposed to be fully operational. Not Bug ridden.

So that I can browse through the system map, look at geographic features and composition of already scanned bodies while my ship is running a DSS on my selected target. If it did what you wanted every time I selected a body to examine while scanning it would cancel my scan and I would have to start again. :D
