A terribly frustrating aspect of UI3 is how some of my most frequently used sidebar fields — X/Y position and width/height/AL sizing — jump around the sidebar constantly based on the current selection. If I have a component selected, it’s attributes will push the position and sizing sections further down the sidebar than if I have a standard shape selected.
As someone who’s heavily reliant on manually inputting numbers into these fields, this feels like a UX cardinal sin for a productivity program. I think most of the changes for UI3 are just things that I’ll get used to over time, but this will always create friction in my workflow because every single component has a different number of attributes which will lead to the position/sizing blocks ending up in a different place in the sidebar. So I’ll always need to spend a beat locating these fields and this friction will add up significantly over time. It’s already slowed me down so much and is really frustrating.
Would the team consider either reverting the position/sizing fields to be stickied to the top of the sidebar or making this a preference?
