New Laserfiche 12 Look

asked one day ago

While we are getting positive feedback from casual users about the new look of Laserfiche 12 (especially in the WebClient), we are receiving mixed feedback from power users regarding the softer look & feel for the Windows Client, Windows Laserfiche Admin Console, Workflow Designer, & Workflow Admin Console.  The biggest complaint is not that the look changed, but that the high-contrast used in previous versions made it quicker/easier to utilize the applications.  This is especially true in Workflow Designer where it is much more difficult to tell the difference between each of the activities, especially in large Workflows.  It would be helpful if they could choose one of the following in the new 12 applications:

  • Use the 11 look for the application
  • A new high-contrast theme (similar to the old 11 look)

 

I know with new looks it often takes time to adapt and if we are the only ones who are experiencing this then please ignore. But for people who constantly are working in these applications (especially with aging eyesight), the higher contrast design in 11 was much more efficient than the new soft contrast in 12. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Absolutely agree, I am mourning the loss of higher contrast/definition Workflow Designer activity icons. In a program that is already rather intimidating to many users, making everything look more similar (and seemingly smaller) is quite confusing at a glance or when needing to navigate quickly. Or even newer or less frequent users learning the differences between activities. 

Same with the desktop icons switch to all blue and white. Orange stood out so well!

Also agree on the desktop icons - you have to look hard and think about them, where before they were very distinct from each other.
