User Interface Redesign

The SOLIDWORKS 2016 user interface is redesigned to provide better support for high-resolution, high-pixel density displays.

Icons and buttons are more crisp and readable, and they scale properly when used with high-resolution displays. Two icon color schemes are available, one with a limited palette of blue and gray, and the other with colors similar to the previous icon set for the most frequently used icons.

Visual clutter is reduced in the user interface, and a new triad design improves visual clarity and ease of use.
