On December 16, 2025, Midjourney released a heavyweight tweet on its official account on the famous social media platform "X", announcing a series of redesigns to the website for users to experience first. Once this news was released, it sparked heated discussions among the user community.
Click on the scrolling editor: start creating a new pose
The first new design highlight in this update is the click scrolling editor. For users who frequently use Midjourney for image creation, the editor is an indispensable tool in the creative process. The traditional way of operating editors may appear inflexible and inefficient in certain scenarios, but the emergence of click and scroll editors undoubtedly brings new possibilities for users' creativity.
This innovative editor design allows users to smoothly adjust the parameters and elements of image generation through simple clicking and scrolling operations. Imagine that when creating a fantasy style image, you no longer need to switch between multiple menus and options. With just a gentle click and scroll, you can quickly adjust various aspects such as color, composition, and details, as if you have a magical wand that can freely shape your ideal image. This efficient and convenient operation method greatly saves users' time and energy, making the creative process easier and more enjoyable.
Netizen Rodrigo Bresssane couldn't hide his excitement in the comment section, stating: "The click scrolling editor is simply amazing! Let's publish it quickly! Don't ask anyone, trust me. No problem, it's ready to go online! Approved! Green light! Let's start!" From his enthusiastic comments, we can easily see users' expectations and recognition of this new design.
General Sidebar: A Tool for Upgrading Workflow
In addition to clicking on the scrolling editor, another highlight of Midjourney's update is the redesign of all dropdown settings panels into a universal sidebar. In the past, users may need to frequently switch between different drop-down settings panels to adjust various parameters and settings. This operation method is not only cumbersome, but also easy to confuse users and affect work efficiency.
The design concept of a universal sidebar cleverly solves this problem. It consolidates all setting options into one sidebar, allowing users to adjust various parameters within a single interface without having to switch back and forth between different panels. This centralized design makes the user's workflow simpler and more efficient, greatly improving the convenience and smoothness of operations.
Netizen NoBanks Nearby left a comment in the comment section, saying, "General sidebar? My workflow has been instantly upgraded
Netizen 2 also expressed, "I like the design concept of the universal sidebar." From their feedback, it can be seen that the design of the universal sidebar has received widespread praise from users, truly starting from user needs and bringing real convenience to users.
However, netizen Colleen M. Brady also raised a problem encountered during use: "I'm not sure how much you can control, but the new split screen view feature of Google Chrome will automatically activate when you try to drag the image to the prompt box. This will cause the image position to move slightly, and the experience will not be smooth enough." This issue reminds developers that while pursuing innovative design, they also need to fully consider the compatibility of different browsers and user scenarios to ensure that users can have a smooth user experience in various environments.
Looking ahead to the future: continuous innovation, leading the industry trend
Midjourney's redesign of the website is undoubtedly a bold and successful attempt. The launch of the click scrolling editor and universal sidebar not only brings users a more efficient and convenient creative experience, but also demonstrates Midjourney's strength and determination in technological innovation.
In the field of image generation, competition is becoming increasingly fierce, and users have higher requirements for software functionality and experience. Midjourney's ability to keenly capture users' needs and pain points, continuously innovate and optimize, is commendable. I believe that in the future, Midjourney will continue to uphold innovative concepts, continuously introduce more excellent designs and features, bring users a better image creation experience, and lead the development trend of the image generation industry.
At the same time, we also welcome everyone to actively provide feedback on the problems and suggestions encountered during use, and grow together with Midjourney to create a better future.
