User interface improvement: getting rid of unused space
In this short post I’d like to share a real case of user interface improvement that we implemented in the upcoming release of the Dr.Explain 4.0.
In previous releases of the Dr.Explain we had a problem – much of screen space on the top of the application window was not used effectively.
Before (old versions of the Dr.Explain):

We reworked and united the toolbar and tabs to eliminate the unused space. Here is a solution:
Now (Dr.Explain 4.0):

With the new design users have more space for work, not for application buttons.
Check if your application interface has unused areas that might be used for real work.
