Now that you can temporarily turn off AD's, it seems confusing to me that the AD Target boxes remain on the map for the ones you shut off. Don't you want them off? Otherwise the Show AD Target switch is not so helpful anymore.

Well, inactive ADs still are on the list and could be enabled. So it is matter of taste if you would like to see them or not. There could be some visual difference between them.

Yes maybe dashed line or something.

Concur in the opinion that active ADs should be distinctive.
Haven't even gone through all the interface changes, but kudos for continuing the improvement.

Added a task to the list. Perhaps yellow text if dashed lines are too difficult.

Thank you. I'm big on double checking the AD boxes to make sure I didn't do anything stupid like forgetting to recon, move an AD, or something. With the new AD feature (excellent by the way), this double check lost it value a good bit for me.
