New Post format – theme 2015

New Post – why did the format change 3/19/15? Now the text entry is at the bottom and the modules are moved to the left of the screen. If this is a data entry error on my part what to do.
If it is a new format — I hate it.
What say ye?The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Can I change this new format we have for writing posts? The new one slows me down just when I was getting used to it. Why did it change in the first place?

Will you provide a screenshot for Staff please? I’ll tag this thread for their attention. You can use http://snag.gy/ to share screenshots and link to them here.
Will you also let them know:
(a) Exactly what kind of device you are using to connect to the internet and to WordPress.com.
(b) Exactly which browser (and version of it) you’re using by checking here if necessary http://supportdetails.com/
(c) Exactly what you experience including what any error reports you receive state. -
I’m not clear on whether you are referring to using the new Beep Beep Boop editor or not.
The Classic Editor will continue to exist in wp-admin. We know some users prefer to use this editor, so we want you to have access to it, instead of phasing it out with the new version of the Dashboard. However, a link to the Classic Editor will not return to the New Editor.

Classic editor > Dashboard > Posts > Add New
Bottom line: Staff removed the link in the new editor to the classic editor but there are two workarounds that can be used found here:

@timethief: that’s the “new” beep beep boop editor, I guess.

Now the text entry is at the bottom
This was a bug that appeared in certain browser sizes and at certain zoom levels. It should be fixed now. :)

Thanks, all. Sorry, I got busy with a pressing matter. It is the Beep editor and it appear to have been fixed. There was a huge gap between the title box and the text entry way at the bottom. This is back to where it was.
Previously, all the category entry boxes were on the right of the screen now they are all on the left. Is that permanent now? -

Yes. We’re moving toward a more consistent sidebar experience, so to match the rest of the dashboard, the sidebar is now on the left. :)
Let me know if you have any more questions!

Thanks, Shawna – et.al. Appreciate your input. I will continue to struggle on my way to more proficient blogging.
