[UI Suggestion] Active Ribbon tab colored indicator for TextMaker, PlanMaker, and Presentations

Post by Văn Phước Nguyễn »

Hello SoftMaker Team,

I noticed a small visual difference in the Ribbon interface between FlexiPDF and the SoftMaker Office suite:

In FlexiPDF, when selecting any tab (such as the 'Home' tab), a blue horizontal accent line appears underneath the active tab.

In TextMaker, PlanMaker, and Presentations, there is currently no colored accent line beneath the active tab to match each application's brand color.

I understand this might be due to different UI design frameworks. However, I would like to submit a suggestion for future updates:

Adding a matching colored accent line under the active tab in SoftMaker Office—such as red for TextMaker, green for PlanMaker, and orange for Presentations—would provide a much clearer active tab indicator and create a more cohesive design experience across all SoftMaker applications.

Thank you for considering this suggestion!

Best regards,
Văn Quang Nguyễn

A good idea. Agree

We have no such plans. We plan to make FlexiPDF more SoftMaker Office-like, not the other way 'round.

GOOD! Thank you.

Is there any possibility of adding a classic menu option to FlexiPDF? I bought FlexiPDF 2025 but I still use 2022 ... because I can understand the menu system.
