2.24 introduced a split pane preview to the note editor. It also moved from layout-xlarge to layout-sw600dp.
A number of users have requested that a toggle is added: https://forums.ankiweb.net/t/uncomfortable-using-new-split-screen-in-editor/69656 (comments split across Discord, Play Store and Reddit).
By far the most convincing argument is by phannan:
I appreciate all the hard work that went into doing the tabs, and unfortunately, it isn’t helpful for me. Especially in the edit screen, the old version works a lot better for me. I am lower vision, so everything is blown up. Losing a part of the screen makes both sides unusable. (See attached) Yes, I can flip to portrait mode, but then I lose half the card top to bottom. I’d appreciate having the option to turn this off, especially in the edit screen.

I would propose tackling this in 2 phases:
2.24.X
- Evaluate and reconsider
sw600dpwith real world examples- Very likely: move from
sw(smallest side width) tow(current width), and select a larger value - Determine a justified value for foldables
- Potentially revert to
sw720dp(roughlylayout-xlarge)
- Very likely: move from
2.25.0 (expedited release for this change)
- Add a setting to Note Editor toggling the sidebar (and enabling the preview icon)
