    Hi there, thank you for submitting feedback! We pushed the new layout a while ago and have been slowly migrating users. The migration is almost complete.


    We see a lot of 'Compact View' feedback so we wanted to gather more feedback!


    When looking at your Inbox, we have in the top, right hand side, the sorting icon. From there you can change the Inbox Spacing to: Small, Medium, Large. (Screenshot provided). Same under More > Settings > Appearance (Screenshot provided)


    So our question to you:

    1. Are you not seeing these Settings/Choices?
    2. You DO see them, but you want it even more Compact? How compact is our question?

    Thanks for your help!!

    I HATE being forced to use a new layout without control of it!
    Each email is spread out too much. I want to choose one row with the sender, or two rows to include the subject too. This should allow the preview on the right. There is no reason to force THREE rows per email. If some people prefer that, fine. Make it configurable.
    Being able to reduce the space between emails would be helpful too. I want to see as many emails on the screen as possible with a normal font size (without zooming out).

    I'm adding this edit because I'm expected to indicate if this issue is Important or Critical. You judge. My browser has one tab for Yahoo and one for Gmail. I hate, really HATE, looking at the Yahoo tab. It disgusts me. (Don't get me started about the ads.)
