Hoping to get some changes from Adobe, we've created this Wish List to improve the interface.

Coincidentally, this appeared on a recent LinkedIn feed. A lot of openings in AdobeDesign, which creates the user interface.

@John Kelman, I don't believe the actual heads of programming have much to do with this interface design. My educated guess is that it was dumped on them by management or the marketing department.
Probably best to go right to the top of Adobe, which is the senior managdement team listed on their investors part of the website. They are installed by the owners (no longer Chuck Geschke and John Warnock) but instead private equity investors (that should give you a clue!!!).
See https://www.adobe.com/about-adobe/leaders.html.
More info can be derived from Adobe's SEC reports to the US federal government and its public investors at https://www.adobe.com/investor-relations/financial-documents.htmlThe actual "Senior Product Manager, Acrobat" is a nice guy who is probably caught between a rock and a hard place...and wanting to keep is paycheck.

An additional problem with the new Acrobat interface (what Adobe calls the "modern" interface):
In the classic interface, you can have the Pages panel (aka, Thumbnails) open on the left side and the Comments panel open on the right. Many folks who proofread or review PDFs set up their workspace this way.
The "modern" interface doesn't allow this: Now, both the Pages panel AND the Comments panel are on the right, and only ONE can be open at any time.
See screen captures of the same PDF in the Classic GUI and the "Modern" GUI.
Thus, the new interface has removed functionality — and this is critical for those who edit, review, and comment on PDFs.

One more annoyance in this update: Endless blue box pop-ups.
No way to turn them off permanently.
They just keep coming and coming and coming...This post tells it all: https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat-discussions/turn-off-these-annoying-banners-that-interrupt-my-workflow/m-p/14063559

Hamburger menu:
It's a special design of a menu that is collapsed and represented by 3 horizontal bars.In Acrobat, it's in the upper LEFT corner where the File menu used to be. Hamburger menus are used in mobile interfaces where screen real estate is scarce.
But they are slower to use, especially for mouse/trackpad users, so they aren't used on main desktops with full size or laptop screens.
Someone at Adobe didn't realize that just like a website, the interface has to be custom designed for desktop monitors (full-size screens and mice/trackpads) and also mobile (tiny screens and touch screens).
It's called responsive design because the interface "responds" to the device to make it most efficient for that device.

Agree with your comments.
But this is a volunteer user-to-user forum so it's better to post your thoughts directly to Adobe at AcrobatUserVoice.com
