Can we turn off the side folder menu that pops up EVERYTIME we open a sheet or report?

Jef Forward

Everytime we switch from one sheet to another, the side menu folder structure opens up.

To be clear - at our arrival to our destination sheet, the side menu folder structure opens up, and takes up between 15%-25% of the screen. We have to use the mouse or track pad to close it. This is a slow process and very annoying.

Also, the confusing part - "at the arrival to a destination, you provide a pop up tool to help us navigate to another sheet?"

It just doesn't make any sense….is the sentiment around the office. My team is adamant this never used to happen. Funny how one simple change can undermine the confidence in smartsheet.

Can we turn this off?

Any help would greatly appreciated. Jef😒

Hi all,

This has now been rolled back so you should no longer see the panel opening each time you access an item. Thank you for your patience and feedback!

Cheers,

Hi @Jef Forward

The Workspace Panel opening each time a sheet is accessed was a feature enabled only for members of the Early Adopter's Program (EAP) as part of the feedback process on the Workspace Panel. This is going to be rolled back soon for this group. For any additional comments, please post in the private EAP Group.

Thank you!
Genevieve

Hi @Genevieve P. , this just started happening for me today too. Any word on when that rollback will occur?—Thanks!

Same situation as reported by John, this is quite inefficient and confusing. How soon can you roll it back?

Seriously, just found this forum post bc my work department's chatgroup is so annoyed with this feature-bug. Please roll it back asap.

Also not part of the EAP and seeing this happen.

Hi, unfortunately it keeps happening as I still see the panel every time I open a new sheet or refresh it.
