      Hi ​@Goldcrusty,

       

      Thanks for reaching out, and I’m sorry to hear the new Fresco layout has been frustrating to work with. I understand how disruptive UI changes can feel when they affect your workflow and overall comfort while using the app.

      At the moment, there isn’t an option to switch back to the previous layout. Please let me know which specific changes are impacting you the most, such as toolbar placement, tool access, gestures, or panel arrangement. Also, kindly share your device model and OS version so I can check this further with the team.

      I also recommend submitting this as a feature request on Fresco UserVoice so the team can track the demand and provide updates. Please create a UserVoice here and share the link back in this thread so others can upvote it as well:

      Looking forward to your update.

      Abhishek

        I agree!

        The Fresco 7.3 iPad toolbar update is incredibly frustrating and honestly feels like a major UX regression. 

        I genuinely do not understand the logic behind moving the undo/redo buttons to the top left side while still leaving the brush size controls on the left side. It doesn’t actually save meaningful space, but it completely destroys years of muscle memory for professional users who use this app daily. 

        I also can’t even find basic tools like the ruler anymore without hunting through the interface. 

        Please give us the ability to customize toolbar placement or restore the previous layout. Right now it feels like the interface was changed simply for the sake of change, without considering how illustrators actually work in the app for hours at a time.  The old layout worked. Please let us put it back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can you tell that I am frustrated?
