Not very Yes I have been using DevStudio v7.5 for 9 months now so I should be over the learning and adjustment curve.
I find everything takes longer to do. I have no issue with reliability. Usability is subjective and I personally find it awkward. I'm constantly resizing portions. Even though I have a 24" monitor it really needed to be 32" (or maybe 55"). It is aggravating the way the Properties work. Always needing to expand everything. Of course Change History is always expanded and I use that the least. Database, Display and Permissions should always be expanded. But of course then you'd have to constantly scroll. I do like the fields area and way you can easily sort by name or ID. I don't like the way the form/workflow lists take up basically the same real estate you're going to use if you open a form. Again constantly adjusting the portions. I cannot express how much I miss the ability to grab a group of fields for movement purposes via the mouse (click and drag). I have mixed feeling about the ability to line up fields which I'm a bit anal about, its different and sometimes its just hard. On page fields why can't the first tab always show instead of having to do the left arrow click. Of course if you expand it full size not a problem. But then I lose the ability to easily use the properties. Sometimes I get wild and click on an icon inadvertently and close a portion, like where my form was displayed and it will take me 10 min trying to find it again. Why are the icons so small? Importing and Exporting takes more steps now and it accomplishes the same thing as before. I do like the filter ability on the Forms/Workflow list portions. I do like the Relationships feature. I'm sure I've missed some things, these are just the ones I immediately thought of. No, I'm not adverse to change but when I make changes I've consulted my customers and make a big effort to make it as easy as possible for them to adjust. How can I choose one thing? Not possible. As Remedy developers we just have to be adaptable! We are basically a custom shop so I do customizations every week to keep up with our constantly growing business and processes. So I hope you all are as pleased as I am.
