Description

With a hiding taskbar it's a bit difficult to press the collapse sidebar button, because it's hidden. (Arguably this is a windows and macos issue... but it happens, and annoys me when using headlamp often)

  • Move the toggle sidebar controls up about 40px from the bottom

Perhaps we could avoid putting controls at the bottom to work around the issue?

Here's a screen shot of what is seen at the bottom of the headlamp window. (note the collapse sidebar button and kubernetes version buttons are not there) image

To reproduce on windows:

  • To enable taskbar hiding do: Right click task bar, Taskbar settings -> Taskbar behaviours -> check Automatically hide taskbar.
  • Have someone ping you on teams.
  • Notice in headlamp you can't collapse the sidebar anymore.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the sidebar toggle button's CSS positioning and ensure it has at least 40px spacing from the bottom of the window to avoid being hidden by the OS taskbar.
