Bring Back The Large Curved Windows

[Isan37]

It was always a feature of the Quest 3 and on v67, I believe, it was announced that there was a new experimental window mode coming soon. As much as I, a consumer, appreciate the constant new features; however, it’s very hard to agree with a new feature at a cost of another. I, like many others, preferred the larger curved windows; for this reason, as a suggestion, bring back the lager view option as a separate mode to that of the new layout. That way, you can keep the new layout for those who find it refreshing and you can also keep the older layout for those who think it’s better and/or prefer it over the new one for various reasons.

The default 3 curved screens from the quick launcher are absolutely fantastic as is !

Flat screens viewed from even slightly to the side have geometry distortion.  Viewing curved screens EXACTLY from the center is far superior and being able to view 3 curved screens centered around you absolutely modern.  Adding new features/options is GREAT but removing a perfect implementation of a GREAT IDEA  is incredibly  stupid and will be incredably annoying as well.

Placing/moving these 3 windows

into their perfictly centered slots takes a split second and you don't ever have to waste time aligning anything. 

Un-needed Forced Change for change sake is dumb and in this case would be very, very, very dumb.

Please bring back the full screen feature. The new panel view is not user friendly. This is an unnecessary update… At provide the option to toggle between. Thank you.

Your best course of action to get any responce, would be to contact Apple Vision Pro support and request a curved screen feature on the AVP.

meta will copy the feature to 'keep up with the Jones' and you'll get the curved screen back by V 70.

Makes no sense that they removed the large curved screen option, while in passthrough.  The only way to get the large screen now darkens out passthrough.  What idiot at Meta came up with this?  If something isn't broke, don't fix it!

Seriously! Why would they remove a feature that actually helps with eye strain and fatigue? The new feature they replaced it with is great, but why did it warrant removing something else?

Just another voice to say the new layout is much worse imho, and an option to switch between it and the old one would be extremely welcome.

Following up after a few weeks of use. Interface is clunky, screens do not snap to position as desired. The user must resize the windows repeatedly and minimize unwanted windows. 

Frustrating to be forced to use this new interface, prior version was much UX friendly. 

There needs to be the option to configure the previous interface. 
Im hedging my bet that we are nearing the release of Meta’s new headset and software platform. Doubtful they rollback code on a potentially sunsetting platform . Although I do believe v69 may be a hybrid bridging the gap to future state.

Swing and a miss by Meta on this update. Appreciate the effort though. 

Black Friday 2024 release date potentially???

Please allow users to toggle off the new layout and use the larger curved windows again.

Adding another vote here to roll back this change or provide an option to revert to the curved screen view in passthrough mode. It was SO much more readable.
