    @Lycan-Thrope I can’t speak for new users in general with regard to invisible features. But any time I’m forced to try to do something on my wife’s iphone, I have to give up after 30 seconds or face the possibility of a massive heart-attack!

      @Alan-Kilborn said, “People just hate change, even when it is a change for the better, or how something should have been from the start.”

      Anyone whose ever used multiple versions of Adobe’s Photoshop Elements recognizes that sentiment as Adobe’s First Commandment!

      I like a more general form : People hate change for the sake of change.

        Please let people decide for themselves what is better for them and what is not.

        Notepad++ is not a democracy; it’s a dictatorship. :-)
        The Notepad++ author decides what is “better”.
        And, he’s decided on this topic.

          The Notepad++ author does not make changes just to make changes.
          If a change is made, it is deemed that it is bettering something.

            @Jim-Dailey ,
            I don’t touch my wife’s phone, because as much as she doesn’t know about tech, she seems to still think she knows more than me, so I don’t even try to help her…it’s better this way…she gets to learn herself, and I don’t have to listen how things used to work until I touched it. :-)

              Let me rephrase: Please let people decide for themselves what they like and what not.

              Yes, that is his privilege and no one else’s.

                @Alan-Kilborn I wasn’t referring to Don. I was speaking in general.

                    Of course.
                    But there’s an understanding that you don’t always get what you like.

                      @Alan-Kilborn ,
                      Or in those famous lyrics:

                      You can't always get what you want
                      But if you try sometimes you just might find
                      You get what you need
                      

                      —Writer(s): Mick Jagger, Keith Richards

                      :-)

                        It appears that those that like a less-streamlined UI are about to get their dream feature:

                        I’ll say no more.
