I also agree with the opening menu, click, click, click before you get “started”. It’s time consuming. I would also like it if we could move the contour screen around when it’s open. Just a thought. I am glad they put the bar back on top. Again, click, click, click. Maybe we need shortcut keys as soon as we open DS? Happy Crafting

while it took longer to do projects I didn’t mind the changes, however I am happy they moved some things back to the top. It took me a bit to find the warp though as I had yet to read your post. I liked the old sizing better than the one now. I do wish I could load more than 1 project I have saved on the canvas as sometimes I use different parts of different projects to make a new project. I can upload several onto the canvas but not not those under my saves.

Now if they would only get rid of the pop up box that shows up under the selected item on your canvas, I would be content. That box makes it hard to grab the item and move/resize it. The box is in the way. How people are able to do anything on a tablet or phone, is beyond me. I feel for them, I truly do. Cricut is trying to make DS better, but more often than not, it just makes it harder.

Yes, I’ve used my Cricut, and I am so happy about the update. I was so frustrated with the previous version because it took me so long to finish my project. I appreciate your blog review of these changes. Thanks!

Awesome news Thanks.
Now I have a question.
Why can I not contour?
I import an image, but it doesn’t allow myto do anything except resize it. No contour, no outline. Yes you can modify at start of down load but not everything. And if I do it still doesn’t allow me to edit after. Any suggestions?
Thanks

Thanks so much for updating us on the latest changes to DS. I haven’t used my Cricut the last few weeks, but I’m planning to use it this weekend, so I’m glad to hear the changes this time are good ones, what do you know. I was one of many who was completely, utterly frustrated, and, frankly, downright annoyed, at the changes they made, putting so many of the tools I use all the time in the drop-down Edit panel. It just made everything so much more time-consuming and made the canvas so much smaller. I don’t understand why anyone ever thought that was a good idea! Wish they’d ask us users before they go making big changes like that. Thankfully, it looks like they got enough negative feedback to change it back. And I agree with you – why can’t I just go directly to a blank canvas to start, like I used to? Is that so hard? Just let me click on the canvas as soon as I go to DS. I really don’t like having to do extra click(s) to get to it every time. But hey, maybe they’ll change that back in the future, too.
