Cleaner Spreadsheet

This post is part of a series on what's new in Circuit Design Suite 12.0

This week's post brings no new functionality - you might even argue that we've hidden some functionality. What is this all about? It's about the buttons in the spreadsheet.

Before:

After:

By a simple count, there are now 4 fewer buttons, plus, some of the buttons are now on the left. Even the icons have changed! What's going on here?

This improvement for version 12.0 was about focusing on what is important and getting rid of the distractions that keep you from finding what is important (the distractions are now in the Export menu in the spreadsheet).

On the left, you'll find things you can do with the information in the table, and on the right, you'll find things to determine how and what information to show in the table. We don't think every customer will even notice this change, and that's okay. But we do think that you may find the buttons more helpful when your designing now that the most important ones get all the attention.
