Hiding the sidebar

Hey, since the last UI update, I can’t figure how to fold and hide the sidebar. The icon for that seems to have gone and I am not sure what replaced it.
The new sidebar is nice, but taking quite a bit of real estate, being able to hide it is a must on mobile devices.
Thanks!

Replying to self: I figured that I can resize it on a laptop by dragging the boundary.

But still clueless on how to do it on mobile devices.

By the way I would love some love on the mobile UX. There are quite a few issues/glitches with it (like, in grid view, and portrait display, scrolling laterally will not render columns to the right of the original displayed area ; or, the near unusable “enlarge row” modal window).

Replying to self again: even on a laptop, I miss that ability to quickly hide/show the sidebar. It’s nice to be able to resize it (maybe that was the case before, I just did not realize), but I need a way to do things the old way too. Maybe it’s still there and very obvious but I can’t seem to be able to find it! Help! :smiley:

Hey @Yam, that’s right. For now, it’s only possible to resize it. I’ve checked with the team to see if we can still add a hide functionality.

We plan to focus on mobile improvements soon. :raised_hands:

Hey @Yam, quick update: we’ll add an option to hide the sidebar. :slightly_smiling_face:

Hey team, is there any ETA for this? As mentioned, it was already not super convenient to use on mobile but now it’s impossible. It’s a huge impact on usability for me.

Hey @Yam, I apologize for the inconvenience. I don’t have any ETA at the moment, but I’ll check with the team and get back to you.

Hey @Yam, we agree that hiding the sidebar is essential for using Baserow on mobile devices. We’ll do our best to release this feature this quarter. :slightly_smiling_face:
