New UX, Chiming in
Along with others I am horrified at the tragic mess the UX (yes, user experience) has become. The UI design is following the unfortunate trend of "unify everything" into a web/mobile topology that has been infecting applications for a while now.
I had a well-developed workflow in Acrobat Pro, that the new & obnoxious UI design, that you shoved down my CPU's throat, broke. More than that, the usability of the new atrocity is a step back.
A number of problems/defects are exhibited, but the three deal breakers are:
1- the floating toolbar (it's fine to have it as an option, but not being able to place it in the old, much preferred header position, is not)
2- Side panel operations bar jumping to the right (again, if it were an option, I wouldn't mind). Having it forced on me is a no go, period.
3- The insidious hamburger menu replacing the good old (and well established) conventional windows menu bar is... Yuch!
Final note, I was working on a number of documents in the Much better previous UI version, closed it and when I came back my computer vomited this massive mis-step. Talk about a rude shock.
I cannot overstate... Yuch, Yuch, Yuch!
