My take is that they have always had a poorly implemented MDI capability. They have now made similar weird choices in how to implement a more modern UI. Now we have the worst of both worlds, with few of the benefits. We have horrible focus control. We have a seemingly bastardized coble between the project and the mixer. It’s almost as if they are independent applications. Even when they finish integrating the new UI, I think all the screwy underpinnings are going to once again limit the functionality of the interface and continue to make simple things overly complex.
Plus I think they all code on and use laptops all day … So, the experience is going to continue to skew that way.
All my opinion of course.
