Planet selection needs same attention as quality selection. I made that quick cropping, how it would be easy to use.
Now we use "Nauvis" as default planet filter. With quick crop, there's already enough space to fit everything in that toolbar. Planet filter would be it's own dedicated button.
Default planet to favorite planet. Now we need to click every single time to select planet, where we want stuff to go/take. With "favorite planet" we could select planet and then every resource selected will go to that planet we want to. Selecting "Default pick-up and drop". This removes "Nauvis ->Fulgora, Nauvis ->Fulgora, Nauvis ->Fulgora, Nauvis ->Fulgora, Nauvis ->Fulgora, Nauvis ->Fulgora, Nauvis ->Fulgora, Nauvis ->Fulgora. There would be more, than one favorite planet to filter planets where ship wouldn't go. Having multiple planets, drop or pick-up will select those planets. Planets would need priority for this.
And i think those planet images are pretty small. Miss click to Gleba instead of Nauvis. Something like first letter next to planet would help with this.

Re: Quick select planet without opening filter and planet filtering
I second this, even better would be to allow to change planet for everything in the logistic group. Logistic groups seems reasonable place to select planets, because usually you make group based on where you export from. But leave the option to override individual items in the group, if you have mixed bag, like belts, inserters etc. for a player, everyone will have mixed planet sources at least for some time.

Re: Quick select planet without opening filter and planet filtering
Yeah, we're 90% of the way there but a bit more work on that would be good, if you can.
Usecase : I was on earlygame Gleba and needed random mall items. Nauvis Silo was busy upgrading all my platforms so I used Vulcanus and a random platform to deliver a few things, make a small detour. The experience was a bit frustrating because I had to first set a temporary logistic group, and then for each item I had to change the filter.
That would be really appreciated too.even better would be to allow to change planet for everything in the logistic group

Re: Quick select planet without opening filter and planet filtering
Personally, what annoys me most is that I tend to double click the planet (like for other selections), and it clauses the 2 dialogs (because the second click is outside the first dialog), without applying the change!
I quite like the propositions in this thread. It could also possibly allow multiple planet selection.
