  • The default state will be determined for each application separately.

...

    • a secondary title,

    • a thumbnail image (for example, an avatar),

Responsive Design

Verint products should dynamically respond to the user’s screen size, platform, and orientation, supporting all devices down to the common tablet size (960px width).

For more information, including recommended breakpoints, see the general Responsive Design guidelines.

Pane width

  • The details pane has a fixed width, and does not respond to the width of the screen.

  • The default state of the details pane changes at different widths.

    • For screen sizes of 1366 px and below, it is recommended that it is closed and unpinned by default.

    • For screen sizes of 1367 px and above, it is recommended that it is pinned open by default. (This is optional, depending on the use case).

  • At 960px and below, the pin and expand options should be disabled.

Pane height

  • There should be a gap between the details pane and the VerinTop, with a minimum space of 20px.

    • The top of the details pane should usually align to the top element on the page, such as the page header or search bar.

    • Where a Ribbon is used, the height of the details pane should reduce when the ribbon is expanded. The top of the pane should align to the bottom of the ribbon.

  • The details pane should always reach to the bottom of the screen.

  • When the screen height (and therefore the details pane height) changes:

    • the pane header and tabs should not move.

    • the main content should remain fixed to the top of the pane.

    • an internal Scrollbar should be used if the content does not fit vertically.

    • if they exist, action buttons and additional information in the pane footer should remain fixed to the bottom.
