I’m done with 7(rant). Before I go back to 6 I’m wondering if there are any known issues reverting?
E.g. will any work I’ve done in 7 on a file open elegantly in 6?
Can 6 and 7 live on the same machine?
thanks!
(rant) To clarify, I’ve tried 7 since release, it’s great to see the bugs get fixed but the UI and specifically the new features are an absolute trainwreck. My productivity has taken a huge hit. The whole UX seems poorly thought out, basic features like the text tool cannot possibly have seen any usability testing. I don’t get the point of the new point tool (pun intended). Bezier curves are still horribly broken. Magnet tool is a mess in terms of selection and z-axis.
I feel that over the past few releases Omnigroup have feature creeped the app away from what made it brilliant. I’d like to move back to 6 and start looking for an alternative. I’ve gone from a huge evangelist in our organisation to warning people to steer clear of the tool. Omnigroup, if you’re reading this - I’ve used your tool since I think v2 or 3? At least ten years now and I’ve got 20+ years in the design and UX field - your tool has been my bread and butter for half my career. To put it mildly you are screwing the pooch and it’s very sad to see what you’re doing to the product.
