Thread moved. If you have bugs to report, please do so following the same format as the other bug reports.

Many of your points have been covered in depth in previous threads. I would recomend searching on some of them to read up on them and possibly read explinations about why things are done the way they are.

The orientation of buttons is something that our lead developer has spent YEARS researching. Chuck has a masters degree studying human interfaces. The design of the interface of StreetDeck is done for a reason. If you wish to have buttons in different places you have the right and the ability to make a new skin. Yes, I realize you don't think you should have to do so, however, if we implemented every chage that everyone lists just because they want it the way they want it we wouldn't have a product capable of being released due to the time it would take to revamp everything per every users wishes.

Your requests to be able to access Windows easily goes against the intentions of StreetDeck. StreetDeck is designed to be safe and easy to use while driving. The software must abide by local and national laws in regards to limiting functionality while moving.
