I’ve been using X2 for several weeks now. I thought I would get used to the new ‘look’ of Endnote (the GUI), but I find that it continues to irk me a bit. It seems too simplistic, and I feel like I should have more control, more buttons up top there. Finally, I find the buttons themselves to be confusing. Why don’t I instinctively know what they mean just by looking at them (ie., without thinking)? I think I liked the old look better.
Is it just me?

I like the fact that the format bibliography button no longer looks the same as the word list button. I was forever getting the two of them mixed up. I haven’t tried, can you change the Endnote toolbar in Word? I tried taking away the remove formating button, because I hate that one, but it didn’t “stick” even though word asked if I wanted to save the .dot file. I
I too don’t think the buttons themselves are very intuitive, but at least they are different from those used for other purposes in other software. For example, I like the fact that the format bibliography button no longer looks the same as the word list button. I was forever getting the two of them mixed up. I haven’t tried, can you change the Endnote toolbar in Word? I tried taking away the remove formating button, because I hate that one, but it didn’t “stick” even though word asked if I wanted to save the .dot file.
