UX regressions in Version 2026.2.1: Favorites, Folders, Folder alignment

Hi Support (UX) team,

After the update (Version 2026.2.1, Renderer 142.0.7444.226) there are a couple of UX downgrades, which make usability worse. Would be great to fix them. (the screenshot is only one at the end, since adding multiple screenshot is block … very inconveniently)

  1. The favorites folder is now hidden inside “All items“ and thus require 2 clicks from the main screen (instead of one). Which is contranatural having that it is Favorites and must be accessible quickly! Pls, get it back to the main screen
  • and also would be nice to have a keyboard shortcut for it (although this is a feature request not a regression obviously)
  1. Also the Folders have been moved down. And they are now closed by default. Also requiring more clicks/scrolling to get to them. (BTW, is Trash folder has higher priority than active folders???). Of course, I can collapse the groups above, but these are all extra clicks every time which were not needed before.

  2. Indentation of folders decreased readability. The default look of folder now hides almost all it’s name, leaving a lot of useless blank space to the left. I calculated that useful infromation is now uses just 30% (thirty!) of the whole space. Which makes it unreadable unless again resize the pane each time.

KR, Alex

@ATsy Thanks for your suggestions!

Though, we need feature requests to be about (more or less) one thing specific thing only. Otherwise the voting system doesn’t work very well.

So, please open separate feature requests about this.
