Introduction

The ModernUI Workbench is an external workbench that replaces the standard user interface with modern features such as:

  • each workbench has its ribbon tab
  • Modern UI ribbon tab replaces top-level menu
  • activating a workbench's ribbon tab shows groups of the workbench's tools
  • Panels such as Combo View are collapsed/expanded upon mouse-over

Limitations and Troubleshooting

  • If you experience unexpected behavior, always try first to uninstall and then reinstall the ModernUI workbench.
  • The workbench is primarily tested with English and may exhibit unexpected behavior in other languages.
  • Installing more workbenches after installing ModernUI may cause problems.

Installation

Install with the Addon Manager.

Note: To uninstall, you will have to create a macro and execute it. If you do not feel confident about this, consider to not install.
