The right panel width shifts when choosing different options from the new room header

Open daniellekirkwood opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

Steps to reproduce

  1. Where are you starting? What can you see? I'm using the new room header and selecting buttons that trigger the right panel. Each click opens/closes the right panel but at different widths which is quite off-putting The right panel should be the same width - with a max and a minimum value - and then the same width applied to all views until the user changes it.

I think this was intentional on ask from @ara4n as he hated having to resize his thread panel to be wider but the rest of the panels to be narrower.

Ok - let's leave this for now and see if we get any feedback on it. I think it's odd that it resizes but also was using the header to test it , not in reality. When we have the tabs available I imagine this resizing will be more obvious and maybe more annoying...
