The most questions I have seen on the PTR has been about the retail UI which is now to be used for anniversary TBC.
I quite like it because I got used to it in retail. However, it does take some getting used to - as evidenced by the questions I’ve seen.
I know some people who haven’t used it before will not like it and there may be a fuss when the pre-patch hits.
One way around this would be an option to use the existing UI instead of the new UI.
If it’s the same as Anniversary it’s barely different.
Far from “barely,” it’s completely overhauled & to answer OP’s question: no.
Why do you even comment if you don’t know what you’re talking about? It is completely different.
Does the default UI in anniversary let you move your action bars wherever you want? Let you move your minimap wherever you want? Resize them? Change their orientation between horizontal and vertical? Change how many button slots are on them? Change how many rows/columns they are?
No, you needed addons to do that.
This is now baseline.
You can use the existing UI by simply just not going into Edit Mode and changing anything.
You have to go into edit mode to resize chat windows; move where your own and target icons appear; make bags not cover action bars and a few other things.
Fair enough but those are such small things that anyone who truly complains about that has nothing better to do.
Tried that, it isn’t possible. It still forces you to change your bars - there’s no way to truly “go back.” It wouldn’t really be a problem if the new UI wasn’t causing errors in other aspects of the game. So, people aren’t just “complaining because they have nothing better to do.” If you don’t add anything beneficial to the conversation, why even bother?
