For me, the so-called "new and improved" UI in FM 11 is why I generally still use FM 8 for some of my older documents, and only start FM 11 when I have the need for features in it.
The look and feel of the recent versions of FM are the worst (some good features, but mostly bad) since I began using FrameMaker back in 1988. I beta-tested FM 3 and 5 a long time ago, and have not been involved in any more since then. So, Frank, I am also glad you are raising your concerns during these more recent betas - I hope you are heard by _somebody_ in authority at Adobe to make a decision to fix this someday.

We can only hope and pray that whoever you spoke with has enough influence to actually cause a change. It is certain that so far, Adobe has decidedly NOT gotten the message. If they had, they would have fixed the UI before releasing FM 11. People on this list have been complaining vociferously ever since the Stalin-inspired interface showed up two releases ago, but it has only gotten worse. I am copying Neeraj Mishra, who recently posted to this list as "Account Development Manager for the print and publishing software" of Adobe. Are you listening, Neeraj??!!
