The end result is a MUCH more usable application UI. It looks like someone spent some serious time re-thinking how a UI should operate for BiaB and did an awesome job on the re-design. Thank you.

Tim, while you are getting used to it, I just wanted to mention that you can toggle back and forth to the 'old' classic interface any time. CTRL+T is the keystroke shortcut. BIAB 2024 Win Audiophile.

I think it is the one I will stick with, I do like the full screen but not the one colour icons, though Peter did say that they plan to add an option to give us a choice. Here's hoping.
