I've been trying out the V4.2MR1 and absolutely hate the new autofeature dialog. I just don't see the logic in hiding the settings you need to be changing behind a bunch of tabs in another window. I saw some people posted that this was a good thing for them and one guy posted this was an "intermediate" step to V4.3. If there is no going back to the simple goodness of the old format, I would like to suggest a couple of changes that might make it more bearable for the rest of us:
1) A setting to control the docking of the Probe Toolbox. It's frustrating that it wants to resize and dock everywhere (and it's difficult to get it undocked). I would like to see choices between the following: a) non-dockable but still resizable b) dockable like it is now c) docked to AutoFeature dialog only
2) Add another tab to the Probe Toolbox for the users who like the old AutoFeature layout. It would have probe depth, num. of hits, etc all in one location to keep us from having to make SO MANY WASTED CLICKS swapping between tabs.
3) A checkbox on the tab described in 2) that would "Show this Tab first with Auto Features". That would give people the choice of using it like it is now or not.
4) Don't do any of the above, but give a "Use Legacy Auto-Features" option similar to the way dimensions are done.
Anyone agree/disagree?
