As you will be aware, Legend 9.6 will introduce changes to the top level Horizontal Navigation bar. Our aim is to make it easier for people to access Legend content.
We plan to release 9.6 on Sunday 24 July 2022, subject to final testing. As always, please get in touch if you have any questions or comments.
Horizontal Navigation Bar changes
The main changes involve replacing the ‘Jump to’ icon with the following dropdown menus:
- Home
- Work
- People
- Organisation
- Admin
When you click on these, a menu allows you to navigate to the relevant location. These dropdown menus also replace the ‘Launch a new item’ icon, as you add new items from these menus as well.
Below are some screenshots showing these navigation changes in more detail.

Improvements to layout of forms and pop-up information
We also make some design changes to the headers and footers on our forms and information pop-ups in 9.6. For example we’ve changed the position of buttons such as ‘Save’, ‘Save As New’ and ‘Cancel’. We’ve also used orange to alert people when they are carrying out risky actions such as deleting something. See below for screenshots.
