FX badge color code missing in new clip redesign

this is how it is now in build 12

but still no colors on the fx badges.

Continuing this discussion I had a look at proxies. This readability is equally diminished. You can barely distinguish active connected proxy from offline proxy in the new design.

Please ask yourselves; is it really neccesary to not show any color information? The same disagreements have been expressed by users on After Effects' side where active buttons also have been changed to solely tones of grey rather than blue. We don't need this 'dumbed down' clean minimalistic stuff. We need fast  access to information. Something color differentiation can achieve multiple times faster than shapes.

1. Easier to view clips? It's one by one and exactly hovering over the badge opposite all the color badges in one timeline view. No clicking or hovering whatsoever.

2. right click to add effects will open the Effects window, but still need to double-click to actually add an effect.

3. another c;ick to open the Effect controls to actually edit the effect.

I am guessing hardly any editor edits video effects on the timeline apart from opacity and timeremapping. Audio is a different. (smart move just to show the audio section.)

I'm with Ann and the others here. 

We NEED the Fx color badges ... not just back, but PERIOD.

This was one of those things that took me a little bit of time to learn how to use, but was so freaking useful. Especially when working the larger or more intense projects I've done. But even the many short little things, it was USEFUL.

The new improved ... ain't improved. Takes longer to figure out whazzup, which is NEVER an improvement!

I don't mind the color changes, I can get used to that no problem.

The Fx badges ... no. 

Respectfully, please give us the information back in our sequences.

I agree with the experts on this one. I much prefer the earlier design as it provided more info at a glance.

Be aware PPro team, by removing this feature in the official release, you will have a huge number of angry users! So, be aware (and prepared).

Been using this feature for some time now and it s.cks

Takes about 1 or 2 second to appear and then disappears again.

Need to hover over the little icon for it to work.

With the color code I could overlook the timeline in one glance now I have to do each clip.

Please Bring back the color code, but guessing, knowing a bit on how Adobe operates. Once taken out it's gone forever............

I agree, this is perhaps too much UI streamlining. Cleaner UI =/= less information.

The color code is a huge part of my workflow too. Please bring it back and please allow for both the waveform and FX badges at smallest track size.

Haven't look at this beta yet (= big caveat) but this change does seem a backward step. The current (non beta) info could be improved for sure (personally I'd like to know clips that have key frames (e.g. motion & speed ramp) and tracks that have track effects easily visible in the timeline).
