I REALLY do not like the new v6 UI. It is too kludgy. Too much time-wasting back and forth.
I don't like the fact that the general navigation bar is always off the top of the window and that I have to deliberately scroll back to reveal it every time I want to use it.
I don't like the fact that the menu buttons no longer lead to interactive drop-downs.
I don't like the fact that to select a report in full search mode I have to go to the reports page, run the report, then expressly RE-open it in search.
The fonts are bigger and styling now uses more space, meaning that too is wasteful of screen estate and adds to the manual scrolling overhead.
Next/prev (in search) only at the top of the page not the bottom which means scrolling back to the top to scroll through result pages.
The ideal solution would be to retrofit the complete v5 UI as far as possible across the board. Is there a nice simple way of doing this without having to dig manually into the XML?
