I checked the new vmadmin template (beta, from VM 3.8.9.10473)
It looks good, but suffers from one major flaw: everything is way too big and takes more space than it needs to.
Compared with the current template, on a 1920x1080 monitor, here is a rough comparison on what information is visible above the fold, for the same product.
Current vmadmin:
Products page, products visible: 10
Custom Fields for a product: Visible until the 2nd row of photos in Related Products. (the whole page is 1891 pixels in height)
New vmadmin template:
Products page, products visible: 7
Custom Fields for a product: Visible only up to the title of Related Products. (the whole page is 3094 pixels in height)
(note: if the product contains a lot of custom fields, the size difference between the two templates becomes even greater)
A challenge of any admin interface is to pack as much (useful) info as possible, in the least amount of space, while being easy to view and navigate.
The previous/current template, strikes a good balance at that. (In fact, I would prefer it be even more compact!)
The new template, makes the existing stuff larger and takes more space.
Thanks!
