I hate the new layout with tools on the left extremely small

I do not like the new layout that just took over my Adobe DC Pro desktop app layout without my consent! 

 

I hate when my layout of any program changes without my knowlege. Thankfully I was able to see the option to resort to the old view. Why can't we just leave good enough alone when something works we do not need to mess with it. 

 

Please do not take the old view away as an option becuase if you do I will leave adobe everything. I spend a lot of money to use this and other key adobe programs and I will find solutions elswhere if I need too. 

 

I love the old layout and I do not want it changed again. Please leave it along.

Hi @JennLeeB 

 

Sorry to hear about the frustrating experience. 

With the Modern Viewer, some of the Tools have been repositioned and realigned. Your feedback is valuable to us. Please share your feedback about Acrobat's new UI with our engineering team here: 

https://www.adobe.com/products/wishform.html 

Meanwhile, you can diable the New UI and switch back to the old one as suggested.

 

Thanks,

Because I have the answer is it possible to close out the post and just leave it for anyone else who may need to know that there is a way to revert to old view? I can't see where to close the post out. Sorry my first post ever here, guidance is welcome. Thanks.

@JennLeeB we cannot close the post out as it's a public forum. Since it got a correct answer so I locked it. This way other users will be able to check the solution as well.

Thank you Gary_sc I found that option. 🙂 I am happy it is the way I like it. I am so glad they left that option for me.

If it weren't for Acrobat I wouldn't have an Adobe subscription anymore. There are better options out there but not in the space of Acrobat.

Hi, @JennLeeB; I have wonderful news for you. The engineers at Adobe had such strong beliefs that everyone would fall in love with the new "look" that they added their best feature: If you go to the View menu, you can select to disable the new "look" and revert to the previous "look."

 

So, even this "not for everyone" new look, there is one feature that is wonderful.
