  1. What I can’t stand the most is that the panels of the new UI can’t be attached to the edges. They leave some gaps, wasting the space to display the main design and operation area. And visually, these gaps are also distracting my attention.
  2. The toolbar at the bottom also interferes with the main operation space, especially if its color is the same as my design draft. By the way, is it just for the convenience of novices to move it from the top to the bottom? If someone who uses Figma more frequently, he will use shortcuts instead of mouse clicks to trigger these functions.
    So I hope that adjustments can be made in time in the official version of UI3, otherwise these redesign will seem like a subjective conjecture of someone who doesn’t use Figma much.

Totally agree, it has so many problems and the UX is very bad, you can increase the scale to fix that problem but some important things are reordered and moved to another place which is also bad.

I’ve learned again that things can always be worse than you think.
The font size (if you focus on Inter) is 9

Wow, 9… I just don’t have the words
Please never use a font size smaller than 16 Inter

Toolbar should be able to change it’s position at the very least. You don’t ever use it since you know some hotkeys. My eyes naturally look more to the bottom of the page, and now this useful space is taken by some garbage icons 🙃

Bonjour,

C’est plus moderne mais l’usage est dégradé 😭

Nous sommes une équipe de 20 designers et nous n’apprecions pas du tout cette nouvelle version UI3 🤢

Nous avons le même avis que dans les commentaires précèdents.
Perte d’espace, perte des repères, perte de temps, mauvaise position des outils et assets… Revenez à la V2

On the left panel, when the pages section is collapsed there is no clue on which page you are. I liked how you had the name of the page in the old UI on the top right of the panel and looked like a dropdown to open it again. Can you add the name somewhere when is it collapsed?

I know it’s been said elsewhere, but I’m unsure what benefit the floating elements add to the functionality. The design desaturates and bleeds off the edge. The panels look obtrusive over the workspace rather than being outside of it. The rulers make absolutely no sense.

The UI now doesn’t allow for a separation between the tool and workspace. It now feels like it’s intruding on the work I’m trying to do, like a modern-day clippy.

If you want floating panels - please let them properly move around/pin to the edges.

I also cannot believe how small the fonts are now. I use a high resolution to give me lots of canvas space, so I had already scaled the interface to 110%. I checked out what everyone was complaining about - and just "WOW. What‽ That’s bad.”

I personally prefer the previous UI. The new look and feel, particularly the loss of familiar icons, has made it less user-friendly for me. I found the old UI much easier to navigate and use effectively.

Also the sidebar panels appear floating now, as if I were able to move them, which we can’t seem to – wasting useful space in the centre. And being able to see a blurred bit of my design to the left side of the panels is distracting. This feels cosmetic design fluff for the sake of it, and not useful.
