You will be able to hide the default tabs, at a minimum. We are still talking through if it’s worth the trouble to allow customizing the tools on the defaults or simply say, “Hide them and make your own new ones.”
A part of the consideration is discoverability of new features we release. I’m hoping the new start page, which is also built in the new UI framework, will give us more options for telling you about new tools/features… a lot of creators don’t use or read DevForum, unfortunately!
Ah, I understand, it’s a bit unfortunate we won’t be able to move the tab on a side, however i’m hoping that could be done through a workaround, by making “presets” with no name maybe? pushing the visible text to the left side of the screen
I didn’t say that! We have not fully figured out all of our customization options yet. We are first focused on the ability to create new toolbars. Alignment of tabs is not out of the question.
I’m sorry if this was reported already, but what in the enchantment table is this 
Oh, well, that’s kind of a relief! Can’t wait to see how alignment of tabs would look honestly, would be an interesting to see how close the layout could be when that’s going to be a thing
This was definitely rushed, it looks horrendous compared to the preview shown in RDC, no offense. Please, for all employees, take your time with updates, I know this from experience, polish it before releasing.
Even though it’s in beta, it’s kind of unusable right now, half of the buttons are missing (like the reload script button) or are way too hard to find.
Yeah because you said it yourself, it’s a beta…
If it’s a faulty beta then why is there no temporary* option to turn it off?
I have, it only disables the editing gui. still has the faulty menu
I haven’t got any beta features enabled
What menu are you talking about, exactly?
With custom tabs, you’ll be able to put any combination of buttons/tools together. But I agree Reload Script and Go To Error should be on the script tab by default and will share with the team.
This is not a beta feature from what I understood, this is being pushed out already to people if I am not wrong. You sandly didn’t make it…
Got it. This is the new Start Page which is currently in testing and not associated with the Preview Beta.
Can you share what you find “faulty” about it?
Every few sessions it will be covered in black patches and weird distorted letters (similar to rick007110’s post), alot of it also seems to use the default system UI which doesn’t fit whatsoever.
I don’t think an incomplete, glitched homescreen should be forced at this stage
Thanks for more detail…
The rendering issue is a known problem with very specific Nvidia DirectX drivers. As far as we can detect, this is not a widespread issue and only happens in very rare cases (I assume you’re using one of the few laptops we’ve identified). We are working with Nvidia to resolve this. In the meantime, changing Studio to use Vulkan through Studio Settings instead should resolve the issue for you.
This is using our new UI framework that does also power the Preview Beta. This UI framework is far more style-able and flexible than we’ve ever had with Qt. We are in the early stages of migrating the UI and our design team is also working on a standardized global design system. Until those pieces are fully in place, the UI will have a mixture of new/old. This current Start Page in test was designed prior to the design system so it should not be considered final. At the same time, it’s not really worth the effort to make a brand new UI look like a 2007 interface that we are eventually replacing.
So why not wait until it’s all perfect? Well we actually want feedback from the community before we switch it over to be the default. To that end, would you mind sharing what else you consider “incomplete” about the new Start Page?
(To be clear: there are multiple known issues and missing parts from the new Start Page and I’m not pretending otherwise. But I also can’t wildly guess what everyone considers complete or incomplete)
I suggest also checking out intel drivers, my PC doesn’t have any nvidia software on it.
I will make sure to try this when I get the chance.
I wouldn’t consider it that myself but that was what you kept hinting to in your other posts - although I (and probably many others) would like to see the ‘recent’ menu back.
