Interface has completely changed since last update. NOT OK.

Why do you think it is okay to completely change the interface to a program that millions of companies depend on?
You have changed where all the basic operations on layers are in the menu. We have muscle memory built to find these things. Our minds know where they are. DO YOU NOT KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS? It means creatives that used to take 1 second to do something, are now take 10. Try doing than 9000 times a day.

I dont know what has happened over at adobe, but I think you are so obsessed with getting on the AI bandwagon, that you have completely lost touch of what adobe stands for. I hope someone comes up with something to replace your products because you clearly just do not care about your clients.

    Hi Vaibhav,

     

    There is some confustion about the new Sinplified Layers Menu.

    On the what's new in photoshop page it says "Use the customizable flyout menu and right-click options to get more precise and nuanced results in your creative work" yet there is no instructions that explain the changes, how to customize the menus or that a preference exists to go back to the legacy menus.

    Ah, this has passed me right by. It was in any case unchecked here when I looked.

    Yes this change is introduced in the latest version to not show disabled items in the right click layer menu and fly out for Background,Pixel and Type layer. But if you wish to switch back to the legacy behaviour just uncheck the checkbox present at the bottom in the Interface prefernces. Preferences>Interface>Show Simplifed Right Click And Flyout Menus

    Hes talking about the right click menu that pops up when you right click on the right half of a layer. Every single item on the menu has been moved in adobes latest update.

    Hi , if in case you are mentioning about the new simplified layers menu visible on right click and fly out. You can go back to legacy behaviour by unchecking the checkbox at Preferences>Interface>Show Simplifed Right Click And Flyout Menus

    Nothing has changed that I'm aware of, so I think you need to show what you're talking about.

     

    Did you have a lot of customizations that have been returned to default in the new version?
