Minimize right side bar?#484

Has there been any interest in being able to minimzie the right side bar, so the user can see the entire full text without the bar? The screenshot is from when I made the broswer smaller so I could fit the browser window and microsoft word on one screen. I know you can view the entire text when you just have that one browser up.

Good question– I’ve never actually heard the request before! We’ve had to make minimizing the PDF possible for Dual Extraction, but I think we have assumed that users need that bar open to complete actions. I totally see the squishing here; there is Zoom capability on the PDF, but are you proposing that a full-screen PDF (with the ability to easily toggle between PDF view and right panel view) would be helpful for very small screens?

Yes! I am looking at the full text to write a summary about the article, so for that task, I don’t need the sidebar, but would still like to be able to see the entire PDF without scrolling from left to right.

I mean you do see the enitre PDF when you zoom out a ton, butthen it’s challenging for the user to read. Just an idea!

Got it– thanks!
