Ship building needs work

This is possibly a minor critique, or even simply misinformed, but I have two points:

- Creating a new ship should be as simple as placing a landing gear. However, I can't seem to be able to place a landing gear on a station's surface (it levitates above and isn't gripped onto the surface). This forces you to extend the existing station and copy/paste / detach as separate ship or just have it float (and likely get knocked away).

- Block shape cycling is awful (imho). I want to cycle through Sizes (which is what the R "Size" button claims it does) separately from shapes, but instead it cycles through shapes AND sizes. I thought I saw this on the To-do list months ago but nothing has changed. There isn't an easy way to select exactly what I want, and if I miss what I want I have to recycle through everything. Annoying, inconvenient, and unintuitive.

Maybe I'm missing something, maybe others prefer this (I wouldn't know why), but I have found it too cumbersome and yet frequently annoying me.
