We completely revamped the user interface for PC. The updated design addresses usability issues based on user feedback and research, refreshes the look and feel to align with the Dynamics 365 brand, and improves performance and stability.

In addition to the new look and feel, the PC authoring app redesign features four key improvements:

  • What's new panel. This new notification panel keeps you up to date with the latest and greatest features and news and also lets you know if you need to update the Dynamics 365 Guides solution in Dynamics 365.

  • Responsive design. The app now gracefully scales to different screen and window sizes.

  • Easy navigation. We added a navigation bar on the left side of the Step editor screen, which provides easy access to Outline view, guides list, alignment, and analyze pages.

  • "Add a step" button. It's now easier to add a step from the Step editor page with a clearer button in the top menu.
