  • 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.
