The New dynamic toolbar is AMAZING!!!!
I reckon.
Agreed. It didn’t take much time at all for me to get accustomed to it and it is now a useful and efficient part of my workflow.
I haven’t downloaded the update yet. I will do so after work. DAL
Agreed, it is worth taking the tme to adapt to it.
Okay I'm one who never read any of the toolbar beta threads because I can only keep up with so many forum drama megathreads. I just downloaded the update 5 minutes ago and LOVE THIS! It's almost worth the subscription price. (No, not really, but it's making me feel much better about the whole thing.) This meets some needs I personally had and ends some minor frustrations I had with the UI.

agreed! so useful and practical!
Is there available a single diagram showing the hierarchy in the new Dynamic Toolbar. It would help us to find a particular menu items that have been grouped under the various categories.
I concur! So much nicer and user friendly in my opinion.
I was one of the guys who, when I first opened it, didn't like it.
After only about five minutes of use, I decided it was a good idea.
A couple weeks in, I think it was a great idea.
Dynamic Toolbar is a great idea.
BUT.... I hope they fix the click click click click to get to the Interlinear and then the click click to get out of it soon. I liked the old click Interlinear and click turn it off. [8-|]

Absolutely! I would like to be able to click to see it and click for it to disappear!!!!

Or you use a keyboard shortcut to show/hide the interlinear pane:

I agree there are too many clicks.
I would prefer if all those buttons that have the little downwards arrow (i.e., can be turned on / off but also have options) could be turned on / off by clicking on the main button. And if I want the options, I click on the downwards arrow.
I’m pleased with the new dynamic toolbar! Now are there any shortcut keys to access the tools that require many clicks? (e.g. interlinear).
Thanks!

It's funny how I just accepted the cryptic, figure-it-out menu/icon items the dynamic toolbar replaces, without ever thinking it was clunky or not user-friendly - until now, because indeed the new dynamic toolbar *is* amazing. I'm just so persistently dazzled by the depth of the features in Logos that the user interface is pretty secondary - but the clean-up is nice. And of course the wider a user base Faithlife can get, under the subscription model, the less geeky much of that user base is likely to be, so scattering menu items in the pane three-dot menu, the three cannonballs menu, and symbols such as the two forward slashes for parallel resources (actually pretty clever, but still geeky), would probably be a tougher sell to the wider user base.
I don't know if this is still an open thread but I must say, I do not like the new toolbar at all. It is not as discoverable. It wouldn't bug me if we could have some sort of ability to use the best of both but the old system was simply faster and much more efficient with less clicking.
