We added another MapView feature to hide/show the left panel set, preserving the set of open panels. So if you have 3 panels open, you can hide them all with 1 click, and restore them all with 1 click (instead of 5)! (Yes, we should have done this sooner 😥.)

We made MapView changes based on user feedback. - Shrank width of each Details panel by nearly 14% - Added 3rd Details panel on left side. See ">" on Left Bar - Increased space around Lock icons in Districts panel - Increased visible rows in Datasets dialog Hope this helps you!😎

We see that some of you don't like the changes. Others have given us specific critiques That we're trying to address. Do you like customization of District and other lines, label positioning and Color By County/City? Not possible without change.

Just deployed new version of New UI, and extended switchover time till the 31st. Key change: MapView Layers & Customize (now Custom Layers) changed back more like Old UI: Layers all builtins (districts, precincts,...); Custom Layers is all custom layers. Less confusing we hope.
