Is this for every block or just one? I had this happen but it eventually stopped.Everytime I click "edit block" or try to rearrange the home tiles it crashes to a black screen
Between this and less pins I'm bummed.

I was going to ask many in here complaining about certain features to do same. if they don't post feedback then there's no reason to be in the preview program.did you post this feedback on the insider hub?
Every block. No matter what I try to do when "editing" my pins or the Games With Gold (my only two blocks), I get a hard crash to a black screen.Is this for every block or just one? I had this happen but it eventually stopped.
Are you resetting the Xbox after every black screen or are you able to open the guide? All my inputs were blocked except for the guide so just wondering if the bug you have is worse.Every block.

I always report these bugs and complaints directly from my console, by the way.
I'm able to click guide>home and get back to normal. But yeah, that's my only option once I crash to a black screen. Looks like no editing for me....Are you resetting the Xbox after every black screen or are you able to open the guide?

And yeah, every issue I have is being reported on the Xbox.
You could adjust tile opacity before, isn't that the case anymore?On the home screen, almost half the bottom screen is a grey block, like on the previous dashboards, so you only see half of your background.
Guide button looks bland with so much grey, especially now that you have stack-able guides (cards in a sense) it just adds MORE grey.
Doesn't look very appealing, it's honestly like the Xbox team has no colour palette.
Just watched Jez's video.
I'm fine with the new guide and I assume everything is now two steps in order to improve performance.
But the reduction in pins, the suggested friends being front and centre and the wasted space just seems dumb. Overall I really don't like it.
They also didn't really improve performance of anything outside the guide. Also, the Community section is literally a carbon copy of the PS4 What's On section.
Ooooh. I Like it.
Ooooh. I Like it.
I wish they would bump me up to the Alpha or Beta rings so I can check it out earlier but, alas, I'm stuck in ring 4 with the other plebs for now. =(
I did my fair share of beta testing in the past. I can wait for the full release when it comes later this year!
Also y clever trick to reduce front loading times of the UI by hiding bigger lists of messages or gamertags behind another action so it can load in background! Makes the whole UI faster than the one we have now in those cases!
Edit:
I just saw on twitter that you are now able to move/copy games and apps in bulk. Thats a blessing for those going to use external drives as a migration preparation to Xbox One X. Will save you a lot of time because currently, you have to do it game by game, app by app which is annoying.
did you post this feedback on the insider hub?
"Shortly after the update's unveiling, Xbox platform Corporate Vice President, Mike Ybarra, took to the company's Mixer live streaming service to showcase the new dashboard update running on an Xbox One X. As a part of a subsequent community Q&A, Ybarra confirmed a light theme is in the works for the Xbox One OS.
Although not available in the public build shipping today, a light variant of the dashboard is in the pipeline, complementing the existing darker color scheme currently seen by all Xbox One users. Despite not providing a precise timeframe for its arrival for Xbox Insiders, the light theme will be publicly shipping as a part of the Fall Creators Update for Xbox One, later this year. For now, Ybarra has assured gamers that it simply "looks awesome" in its current state."
Amazing if true. I have 2 external HDDs and I use one as a backup. This will make it much easier for me to copy games between the internal/external hdds.

I thought that for the first time when I saw it - and I actually think the PS4's What's On section is a bad bad way to represent that info. I don't know anyone who uses it. I quite liked the community feed before, gave it a social media lite feel.
It is true! This is a screenshot that shows the new options. As you can see there are new button for "Select All" "Copy selected" and "Move selected".

Indeed this will make things much easier than now!
Amazing news. Thanks for posting!
Hopefully this'll fix the unresponsiveness of the dashboard. I hate using the Xbox One dashboard since the console has been released and they still didn't manage to fix it. It feels so sluggish.

That has to be the reason, I use my Xbox rarely, but when I use it it's downloading something. But it seems weird to me, that whole system ist slowed down by a download. And my internet connection is not that bad (50 Mbit).The responsiveness of the current build is way better than what we had before. You already can see in the new build that they took actions to further enhance the responsiveness by taking away loading tasks from the front and moved it to the background (the reason for lists you have to to an additional step).
But whenever there has to be downloaded something the responsiveness is dependent on your internet connection speed and ping time.

Why on earth does MS love empty grey space taking the entire home?
Only just started watching the video but this UI isn't giving me good impressions
you should be able to quickly jump to pins if you keep pins as the top block(Actually I'm not even sure, RT seems to jump to both the first block and the last block. Might be a glitch based off where the cursor is?). Just noticed you can't move pins around as easily any more aswellI just played arround with it for 10 minutes and I don't like it at all. The previous one was really really good, but this one is just very bad.
The Home screen is the ugliest it has ever been. Not only that, but it has actually less functionality now, because you can't quickly jump to your Pins, Games and Apps or Downloads anymore. You can't even rearrange your pins immediately, it now requires an extra button press for some reason, just like it requires an extra button press to access your friends list in the Guide. Speaking off the Guide... why is that shit Horizontal now? So ugly...

I was one of the few people to actually defend the UI in all those "Xbox UI is bad" threads but honestly now they'll actually have good points
This might be the worst UI they have put out yet, worse then the launch UI which honestly wasn't even that bad just lacked features.
Anyone know how to force this update? I am in alpha preview.

No reason to thank me as I only copied the screenshot from my twitter feed to put it in here! Courtesy goes to another Xbox owner that posted the stuff on twitter!
I am excited too about this new features as it will makes it easier to manage your storage space with new games that comes with larger sizes due to the higher quality assets come with it on Xbox One X.
Edit:
Another nice addition is that you now can pause or cancel all downloads at once!
