Right now I'm using the darker green (third down from the top in the selection box). I used to use the lighter blue (toward the bottom of the options) also but with the new UI it's now too light, especially with the gray separater lines.

Hello !
just download the v7.1 on my small lap top (I try the new epim on it before installing it on the laptop on which I am working ;-) !!
BRAVO to the EPIM TEAM ! I knew I could trust you !
I am on holydays, so I can just speak about the interface and it is much nicer !!!
but one thing : in the agenda, would it be possible to have the lines for each hour ? it is not very easy to see the free zones in a single vision (see attachment : on thursday and friday morning for example, it is not easy to click on the right zone ....)
thanks for your work !
go on Epim Team !
best regards

I guess we can close the poll and topic, or open a new one "Version 6 versus version 7.1", as version 7.1 has brought many improvements UI-wise.

I don't mind if you close the topic, I can't do that. The poll is closed, that I could do.

For me it's the same, with 7.2 I also have upgraded from 6.58 and now use 7.2 WIN and 4.5 Android. There are still a few things that I have to get used to. Also there is a problem with the synchronisation, but for that I have a workaround.

Most of my initial remarks (and some that I have found later) have been changed/solved. So for now I am happy with the new version.
Thanks development team for all updates and for listening to your users. :D :D

Same here - Once again lots of useful improvements and responses to feedback and the program is solidly back on track. I also have synch problems but it's a small annoyance compared with all the positives.

Thank you all - it is a pleasure to use EPIM!

Happy New Year to you
Thanks

Mighty happy with v7.2, despite a minor issue here or there. The short evolution of the first release of 7.x to where it is now is quite a success story of how software developers listened and worked with end-users to resolve out issues.
