Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
OpnSense is getting somewhat crampted for 1080p... I´d like to suggest a retractable menu to open up more space. If it is already there then please accept my apologies, but I couldn´t find it.

You can press on the arrow next to the OPNsense logo
Hi, just checked the logo, but found no arrow. My OpnSense was updated 2 days ago.
It could be something related to the dark theme...
It doesn’t show if your screen is too small (vertically), because it needs that space for a fixed menu rendering.
Is you browser/TAB full sized on the monitor? Are you using something like a "Dark reader" add-on in your browser?

Hi, using a 27" 1080p monitor, not using "Dark Reader", browser maximized...
I notice that the retract controls are not always visible, and sometimes the menu retracts unintenionally - for example if . Since the menu items take up more vertical space and the menu isn't scrollable, this can mean that the later menu items are not visible and the menu can't be un-retracted if the control is not displayed. This happens to me on a 1920 * 1080 laptop screen.
The work around is to reduce the zoom level of the browser which seems to unretract the menu, but that is not very obvious.
I'm not able to reproduce this all the time - but I was driven to find this issue by how confusing it is.
If the menu can be retracted, the retraction control needs to always be available.
