Change time/date controls back to the way they were in the previous version. They were easier to use and felt more responsive.
This is not true. What you mean is: you were more used to the old system. Please tell us what specific improvements to make to the new system to improve it. The old system was buggy and will not be brought back. We are very interested in making sure you are happy with the new system, but please have some patience.
You can simply type in the new system using arrow keys to change area and up/down to change value, but you can also just type things like 1/23/12 and 10:14 in the new system (include the slashes and the colon symbols) and it works perfectly! You can use “.” also instead so it works with just the numeric pad.
With the newest bugfix (will be in next version), copy and paste works again.
I suspect you simply have not realized how easy things are with the new system because you didn’t know that certain things are possible.
But please tell us any concrete things you want the new system to do! We want to make it good. It may be that it already does what you want and just we didn’t document it though.
Cheers,
Aaron
