When in the new UX, in the section view, you now see all sections names instead of just the section you are in and corresponding questions. While this may be highly desired for some users, it can be problematic for other users, especially in large RFPs with numerous sections. Having a single section only view is really important. Can we please bring this back?

Additionally, this makes it hard for those added as reviewers to see only the section that are supposed to be reviewing. +1 on having an option to only see within one section.

Hi All,
I believe it was done after several analyzations. We might not revert to old options. But still I will rethink through it. Also can you please let me know the users that would like to bring back the options.
Thanks,

Dynatrace has raised this as an issue for them

I've had several clients mention this. Invesco has said this, as had Hitachi Energy. US Bank had sort of adjusted to it, but they still don't like it. They would all like to see only the section they are in.

All,
Can we recommend users to use the 'View My Sections' toggle to view only the sections they are assigned to? Video attached for reference.
Thanks,

That sort of works for users who are specifically assigned, but sometimes that's not the case. For example, the Proposal Manager might need to focus in on a section they aren't specifically assigned to. Or for users who are assigned but only want to focus in on the one section, that still doesn't work. RFPs are often just too large to be able to effectively load the whole proposal or even just the sections they are assigned. Some companies absolutely need that whole project view, but lots of others really want to focus in on one section at a time.

HI All,
We made the toggle to be sticky at the user level which helps the users to focus on the assigned or filtered question/sections/tasks when ever the user return back to the question/section/task page after he/she completes the work on the particular task.
Thanks,

I don't think the sticky toggle really fixes this. It helps in some scenarios, however, it doesn't really solve the problem. For example, let's say as the Proposal manager I am assigned as a reviewer for the entire project, but I need to focus in on just one section at a time because the RFP is very large. The toggle still would show the whole project. I think this is very problematic for many of our users.
