@Marilyn - sadly, changing just the Page layout and Zoom selections is not changing where all the icons and toolbars are located. Nor does it restore all the pinned icons users had prior to the latest update. The two biggest issues with the new interface are: 1) the fact that there are icons in all four corners of the window which is terrible for eye tracking and use of time due to having to move between four different sections just to accomplish a single task; and 2) the fact that every time an action is taken the left toolbar now expands sideways using up valuable screen space as well as pushing the page image to the side, again forcing more eye tracking that is completely unnecessary and takes up valuable time in completely tasks. Frankly, this is just a poorly designed interface without any apparent thought to the time each task takes to complete. Any good programming team would take all aspects of the user actions and time constraints into account, as well as do beta testing for user feedback. Too bad Adobe seems to have not done that with this update. Maybe this layout has something to do with their new agreement with Microsoft and Edge. If so, someone in management needs to seriously relook at the poor design aspect of this new interface.
