Hey guys,
UI3 has come a long way, I remember it was absolute crap in the beginning, it’s actually pretty cool now. But somehow, it still feels like the UX is not perfect. Maybe because all the sections in the right side panel rely too much on text? The structure makes sense, but I often find myself editing the corner radius for example, when in fact I want to edit the auto layout padding. That’s just one example, I feel that in the previous version I didn’t rely on reading as much, but mostly on reaction, which was instant.
it’s actually pretty cool now
No, it’s not
I would like you to bring back the spacing visualization in the menu when I select two objects on the screen. Previously, it would display the number of pixels between one element and another, but now I don't know where that option went. The lack of this feature really hinders the organization and documentation of the file.
it's confusing to me, yes. I used it in 2023, 2022… 2021 and now looking at it again it just looks so less intuitive than it was. I have no idea where the top bar went.
The new auto layout UI is horrible. It’s if they had removed the entire auto layout feature entirely. Please change it back. There was no need to make updates to auto layout in the first place.
They seem to have removed absolute positioning, and auto layout settings is gone now, and a whole bunch of stuff like as if they don't care that we use these settings on a regular basis. Now they're completely gone. It seems like a designer who doesn't even have a brain or any eyes just started removing things without noticing that people are actually using them. Very frustrating.
I agree, they don’t need to remove it on the first place. I don’t even know where it went now? can somebody help?
Nothing disappeared, if you think it did you probably need to click “Show more properties” (annoying, it’s here because you chose to simplify all instances but it’s NOT what’s expected)

Absolute position is now represented by this icon in the position category which is why you guys can’t find it I imagine
