These Pie menu's

Please allow me. I love Blender, I love the new 2.8, I love everything about Blender. But… the only thing I cannot get accustomed to are the Pie menu’s. They just don’t work for me.
With options all over the place they immediately make me loose focus on what I was doing, they’re giving me unnescessary eye strain and I hardly ever quickly find the option that I need. I must be old-fashioned but I try to avoid them as much as possible.

Now with Blender 2.8 I was able to erase the _pie extension from the keymap preferences which would give me a plain menu for most options but now with 2.81 this seems no longer possible. I’m not here to complain or start a discussion on usability but if it is somehow possible to reinstate the old linear menu’s and make the menu appearance a selectable preference setting I would be tremendously grateful. Thank you.

Hi @phaseIV,
What pie menus are you talking, most of the menus I see (RMB, the old special menus) aren’t pie menus, just regular ones. Only Tab, Ctr+Tab, . and , and a few others are pie menus, and those are relatively simple, at least in my few.
Can you share some screenshots?

Cheers,

Well that is indeed annoying if you don’t like pie menus. I find them useful, press, drag release.

Nevermind me. This trick is still working. I am so happy right now!

WE have ask devs to make a global or individual option of pie menus. Because it is not normal that if you don’t like it you must to redone each hotkey.
