New VP interface

I welcome change, a fine example of this is Windows 11 this is when its got right. But I am sorry VP this new interface is not an improvement. the typeset and back ground colours are too similar, and only become more distinct when you hover over them by which time i have identified the section I need. It also seems the typeset is smaller. I can only assume this was done at home by one person, who didn't ask for any feed back. Now might be a good time to review the feed back.

    Isn't it strange that they didn't give the option to switch between a New View (Beta) and Classic View for a while, until they ironed out any gremlins? They just forced it on everybody all at once, with just a 20 second video as a preview. Very poor.

    I used to use a system called BuildOnline and when they were working on a new interface I was invited to User Acceptance Testing at their offices and found all kinds of problems - all of which they fixed thanks to my (and others') feedback. But that was back in the 2000s, when there was still a little bit of the old-school mentality of change management and control, rather than the "this is what you're going to have and like it" mentality that started with mobile phone firmware updates and has permeated to just about everything else, with next to no choice in the matter.
