User Interface: Bad (Native Access 2)

Good golly, NI, how did you end up doing this? Access 2 doesn't allow multiple selections and then activations. At the VERY least it needs "Activate All", by category. The interface now, is too slow and clunky compared to v1. I admit it's pretty, but I don't really need pretty, I need speed.

The UI itself is slow too, I'm thinking somehow the main UI thread is being slowed down by "other things", probably some kind of download thread. This thing needs to be multithreaded. clicking on "repair" and having to wait a full second for it to SHOW me I clicked repair, isn't very cool.

it's a nice effort, it just needs to be polished up.

    "At the VERY least it needs "Activate All", by category."

    It actually has that, I think. "Install all", in the upper right.

    Regarding the UI being slow: I can't confirm that. I don't see any slow downs on Windows 11 here (well... maybe sometimes, when scrolling). It's an Electron app, don't expect performance wonders.

    I agree about the multiple selection thing though, that would be nice.

    We'll forward your comments to the Native Access team. Regarding the speed on loading, this is actually being worked on.
