Clients needed to inspect options outside editing. I explored how to expose that detail while retaining the table used for printed quotes and purchase orders.
Inspect image and full contextExpandable rows group specification details beneath the relevant quote item. Design reference; the original includes multiple example states.
The detail remains attached to the table item. It uses more space, but answers a real review need without discarding the printable structure.

My contribution
Visual and navigation design, informed by customer and support concerns and refined with developers, QA and feedback.
A simpler menu, with room for familiar navigation.
Replacing the ribbon seemed a useful simplification. Pilot feedback changed the decision to preserve a choice of navigation modes.
Inspect image and full contextThe frame-editor design places the drawing within a workspace of product structure and tools. Design reference; it does not show the navigation preference setting.
The compact menu sits above the drawing and surrounding tools. This design reference gives workspace context; the settings choice comes from the pilot account.
