For lack of a better name: cursor wraparound & title pro

Hi!

One little annoyance for me that should be easy to fix:

When I am docked and e.g. in the Game Menu, I'd like to be able to "wrap around" with the cursor, i.e. when I'm at the top entry and press cursor up, I'd like to end up in the last entry, and vice versa, when I'm on the bottom entry and press cursor down, I'd like to be on the top entry. Same with other menus like Ship Outfitter or Commodity Market.

Aaaaand while one is at it, another point:

When I'm docked at a Rock Hermit, or the Pulsar Station, the commodity markets title is "Tianve Commodity Market" (or whatever system I'm in) instead of e.g. "Rock Hermit Commodity Market".

Yours, Christian

I would like that menu behaviour too.

+1 since it feels disproportionately annoying when in a keyboard-driven menu to have to keep moving over to the mouse to click on the top-most or bottom-most item.

I'm looking at my desktop, and it's a few inches from my keyboard to my mouse... and yet it's so annoying :P

I must admit it bugs me that I can't keep toggling in one direction and have the selection wrap around.. This would be a very handy feature, and ought to be fairly minor to add.

Personally I would prefer it didnt wrap, I like to hit down and know it will stop when it gets to the bottom. I think wrapping menus is a bit strange, but I dont feel that strongly about it if its what everyone else wants.

For the commodities market I agree.

If it could move down fast that way would be ok. But now it moves slowly.

Wrapping menus have been implemented for 1.74. Anyone feeling like giving it a go, feel welcome to try tonight's nightly build.
