New Navigation Builder keeps switching ON.

Has anyone else noticed that, when updating an app in the Service, the new navigation builder is now reverting to On. I have it switched it off in all my apps, but now, whenever I go to update an app...

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    PG is working on a fix. We don't have an ETA yet, but will update when we have one.

Yes, I have noticed this too but only in the last 2 days. It is really annoying, especially because the new app layout sucks.

    Hi there

    I am going to say that sooner than later there will be no option to decide between the new and the old layouts.

    I personally think the newer version looks better and has better functionality for report consumers

      My issue with the new layout is that it becomes confusing which is a report, which is just a page within a report and what is a dashboard. I also really dislike the colour schemes, they're all so in your face.

      I sure do hope you're wrong about that. I would hate to see the new interface become the norm.

       

      We had great hopes for it when it was announced but we've opted NOT to use it, because: (1) it's ugly, (2) even though you can resize the menu bar, you just can't reduce it enough to get it out of the way, and as a result (3) it totally messes up the utilisation of the screen landscape for the report itself.

       

      We use reports, not dashboards, for all of our data, and we have everything laid out well in terms of screen space utilisation. This new nav builder ruins that.

        It is interesting to see everyones comments on what works and what does not work.

        I have no idea in terms of if the new or old version will or will not be made permanent
