New Desktop UX | Detail View Column Distribution Setting

MultiTech_0-1722016018307.png

When you specify the "All other columns" entry, and you've got the new desktop UX turned on, if you've got a lot of columns... they're all listed inside one "card" in vertical format.

  • If you've got a lot of columns, this means that the list of "all other columns" can get rather long.
  • Which means the single "card" that's holding all these columns will be very tall
  • Which means a lot of scrolling to get to the bottom

To address this you could:

  • Manually split the columns into groups, using additional show(Page) columns to configure the splits.
    • But this means I have to do this

I'm wondering about another (automatic) solution?

  • What if instead of listing everything vertically in one card, what if all the remaining columns were distributed horizontally across each of the columns present?

Like if I've got a wide screen and there's 3 columns for the detail view, it would be nice for the columns to distribute between these columns automatically.

  • This way I don't have to scroll so far down to see the details of certain columns.

This could be a toggle switch on the detail view:

  • "Distribute all other columns between desktop UX columns"
      - Or something of the like?

A possible solution is to have an option to distribute all other columns horizontally across the available columns in the detail view. This would make better use of wide screens and reduce the need for excessive scrolling.

Implementing a toggle switch like "Distribute all other columns between desktop UX columns" would be very helpful. It could automatically balance the columns across the view, making the data more accessible and easier to navigate.
