Hope I'm not raining on any parades, but the new formatting pane seems to take twice as many clicks as before, and seems more confusing.
The twirl control is still present, is still an extra click.
The settings are split between two General and Visual "panes" now.
Settings that don't apply are still shown, but greyed out.
Why are we exposing settings that don't apply to the current selection?
Where do we submit this feedback?
Thanks.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Thank you, was having trouble locating documentation on the new feature. Search and highlighting is nice. I'll give it some time and see if I can warm up to it.
If anyone has insight into these design choices or can explain the above, please do.
Otherwise, I would like to make sure my voice is heard on this one.
