UI3 Ruins Efficiency - Spoken from a long-time user

First of all, STOP hiding important values like dimensions from me in place of an auto layout value. This is the biggest annoyance I have with the new design. It’s like you tried to simply things, but now the whole UI feels more cluttered and busier than ever.

The fact, I have to stop concentrating on what Im working on and move my mouse all the way to the side panel, and then PRECISELY hover a tiny rectangle to get a fundamental dimension, is so unpolished as an interaction. Don’t hide dimension values!!!

Not only hiding tools behind more clicks , now assets are behind a bigger mess than it was prior. Seriously, for a software dedicated to designing for UX … you would think the UX in the software would be an example of efficient.

Now my whole workflow is riddled with micro friction clicking, God all the clicking drill downs are obnoxious! And the visual noise doesn’t help focus at all. 

No, i don’t want keyboard shortcuts, my fingers are half the length of Spock’s. I can’t just spock my way to an autoframe.

Totally agreed, it’s really infuriating me that the tools bar are moved to the bottom and out of context with the tabs, name of the file, prototype controls etc. I have to keep moving my eyes between top and bottom of the screen. How they think this is an improvement to usability and effectiveness of the UI is beyond me. Also having a floating tool bar isn’t a better use of space within the work area, it just gets in the way of the content the stuff in the canvas. The UI2 top bar is the most effective and efficient use of space.
