New position of project chooser

Frillex — Fri, 09 Dec 2022 12:28:31 GMT

In Archicad 26, the project chooser have been moved to the right side instead of the left side in the navigator.

I think this has to do with the fact that the project map have been put in its own lite column (not sure I use the right word here).

Anyway, I don't see the point in this switch of position.

Can someone please explain why this have been done?

Im not trying to complain, just very curious to know, it seems a bit pointless.

But i might be wrong 🙂

Regards

Felix

Sadly there have been a lot of UI changes in AC26 that I am struggling with as muscle memory for so many years I have been going to a specific spot and I am having to reteach myself where to go.

For seemingly no reason...

Reported as a Bug during the Beta and rejected. Looks like we old users need to get up to date on the "upgrade by moving icons around" software law which states

"If no new features will be available on an upgrade then move icons around, remove, or hide them, and call it interface optimization…"

So they had the possibility to change it back but didn't.

As Nathan said, it really is messing with muscle memory...
