Just a small suggestion.

Keep the data sheet icons consistent.

The **‘source values’** , when you are adding components show all the underlying data sheets with a green icon whether they are gsheet or glide tables.

In the data editor- view they are distinguished, green for gsheet, black for glide tables.

Suggested for the future (not urgent) keep them the same. Thanks

Don’t love the location of the components on the new editor. Seems like they’ve all been moved to new areas of the page without a clear reason.

It is either in this thread, or another discussing the changes coming, but there is a roadmap reason for why they have been moved to the left. Fairly sure it was to do with grouping components, and more options going forward.

@Jason There’s an issue with the action configuration screen getting hidden behind the left-hand panel in the Custom Action builder:

How did you get the action editor to come up without the left panel going away…

@jason  
Also another bug:  
When I’m setting Tab Visibility, any time I click any portion of the visibility condition form fields, it kicks me out of the tab and sends me to a new tab. I have inadvertently changed visibility conditions on tabs because of this.

EDIT: @jason  
Actually this glitch just caused me to lose an entire screen…It actually has nothing to do with Tab Visibility…it’s caused by simply editing a Tab located in the menu. Well…looks like I know what I’m doing for the next 90 minutes. 😠

Quick observations/notes, apologies if already mentioned:

Overall, some changes make sense, others are confusing and will take getting used to.

- I appreciate the minimal UI, but it’s rendered the interface less accessible. Harder to orient oneself to a (mostly) monochromatic, low-contrast environment. Especially challenging for those of us with less-than-perfect neural responses and/or vision.

- I keep kicking _myself_ out of the editor by clicking the arrow in the top-left corner out of sheer desire to collapse the left panel and regain lost space. [probably a carryover habit – collapsing Airtable views]

- What will search do, confronted with its diminished prowess? Shame to see relevant sheets (where the search string is found) no longer highlighted.

Thanks for your report. Please continue here ⬇ as it _looks like_ that the issue is not related to the new Glide builder.

I had the same issue and wiped out an entire screen with lots of embedded logic 😢

Good thing I remember my logic (mostly) so I was able to recreate (albeit painfully). If there isn’t already a feature request for version history rollback capability, that would be a great add!
