stick to the right side of the page
...
Default State
...
.
have a fixed width.
...
If the page contains a ribbon, the top side of the pane is attached to the bottom side of the ribbon. If not, the pane starts a few pixels below the VerinTop, to align with the page title. In both cases, the pane stretches all the way to the bottom of the page.
...
Add image
fill the vertical space to the bottom of the page.
Where the pane is Static:
there will be a small amount of white space between the pane and the right and bottom edges of the page. This spacing should be a consistent fixed size.
the top of the pane should be beneath the relevant section header.
Where the pane is Collapsible:
depending on the application, the top of the pane should start from either:
beneath the VerinTop, aligned with the top element in the header area, or
beneath full-width header area.
where a Ribbon is also 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. (See example image in the Description).

Default state

...
such as text, lists, cards, tables, forms, graphs, links etc.

The content area may contain multiple sub-elements (for example, cards).

Internal logic
Where the details pane content relates to selected items within the main page:
the pane’s title, secondary title, and thumbnail image may all be inherited from the selected item(s).
when no items are selected, the details pane will show an empty state (see States below).
when two or more items are selected, depending on the application the pane may show either:
the number of selected items, or
a combined view, aggregating data from all items.
States
Where the details pane is collapsible, it has three basic states:
State | Description | Example |
|---|
...
Collapsed | The |
...
only visible part of the pane is the collapse/expand area, allowing users to expand it. |  |
Expanded, pinned | the pane is shown next to the main content area, so nothing is hidden. |
...
 | |
Expanded, unpinned | the pane overlays the main area of the page, hiding the content behind it. |
...
Collapsed
...
In case the details pane is unpinned and no items are selected, the only visible part of it will be a narrow bar with an arrow pointing to the left.
...
 |
Empty State |
...
When no items are selected, the details pane will present an empty state with guiding text |
...
, guiding actions, |
...
or a page summary. |
...

content is loading, a loading state will show, including a |

Interaction
Interaction only applies to collapsible panes.

Switches the icon between pinned and unpinned.

When pinned:
If one or more items are selected in the main area - expands the content in the main area so the details pane overlays it.
If no items are selected in the main area - collapses the details pane.

The Collapse/Expand
...
Area
Hovering the collapse/expand
...
area switches it to the hover state.
When the pane is expanded, clicking the
...
area switches it to the collapsed state.
When the pane is collapsed, clicking the
...
area switches it to the expanded state.
When unpinned, clicking anywhere outside of the pane will close it.
Selecting items within the main page content
A collapsed pane may automatically expand when items are selected within the main page content, where the details pane contains extra information related to that item. See Table actions for more information.
Validations and Errors
The details pane itself does not require special validations.
For validations and errors related to content, see Field
...
Transitions
When the details pane is expanded from collapsed mode, the
...
pane will slide from right to left.
When the details pane is collapsed, the
...
pane will slide from left to right.

Practices
Use:
Where
...
items in the main page content have a lot of related information
...
that
...
needs to be displayed.
Where there is a need to perform actions on sub-elements of items (e.g. cards).
Don’t use:
Where there is additional
...
content related to the
...
main workspace.
Accessibility Compliance
Unless otherwise specified, see our general compliance information in Fundamentals - Accessibility.
Responsive Design
Verint products should support all devices down to the common tablet size (960px width). For general guidelines, see Fundamentals - Responsive design.
Pane width
The details pane has a fixed width, and does not respond to the width of the screen.
A static details pane may become collapsible at smaller screen widths, where appropriate.
Where the details pane is collapsible, the default state of the details pane may change 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, the default state will be determined for each application separately.
At 960px and below, the pin and expand options should be disabled.
Pane height
...
When the screen height changes, the details pane height should also respond.
the pane header and tabs should not move.
Design
the content should remain fixed to the top of the pane.
an internal Scrollbar should be used if the content does not fit vertically.
where they exist, action buttons and additional information in the pane footer should remain fixed to the bottom.
