 Resource windows is not user friendly

(In Studio 2, the resource window is badly designed. Why? Take a look at the image. It says it all.

The folder structure isn't obvious. In GM:S 1.4 you have folders for all your resource types in bold. In GMS 2 you have everything in the same style. Moreover, there is only empty space to show subcategories, and there are no "folder" icons.

I absolutely hate the resource window. Please, can we have an options to change this to how it looked before? Would really help with workflow. The list view where you select sprites for object for example, is more in the direction the resource window should be.

At the very least, give the ones who want to change the option. It shouldn't be that hard..


Another gripe I have is that the GM help (F1) now opens a window in your browser (instead of 'locally' in GM) and the pane to the left where you select the helpinfo cannot change its width. Also, why is the manual opened in your browser?
