When this selector is changed in any open Workspace window, it forces every other open Workspace window to match. This makes it impossible to keep multiple windows open on the Workspace where some are showing the “Perso…

The left navigation colum currently is limited to showing all spaces, or to hide them under ‘hidden spaces’. This already is a UX limitation, since we often don’t want to hide it, but simply organize the structure of sp…

Hi - what’s the default app sort order, for the icons on the left? I see that I can drag/drop the icons up or down, but, does that change show for everyone?, or, do I need to get each user to drag/drop them how they lik…

For smart folders in our wiki, we use the “group by same database relation” toggle to nest entities. However, when we use the “sidebar search” feature to locate a folder and then expand that folder, all the entities are …

What does it mean when in the Left Menu, a View is nested under a Document? It does not seem to change the way either one is displayed - the View is not part of the Document.
