Staff encounter the layout through each screen they open. The screen’s chosen layout establishes its working column. Some screens also request temporary navigation collapse to make room for their task. Staff can use the header toggle while working on those screens. Departure restores the arrival state when the collapse helper had changed it. The recorded layout expectations remain separate from the historical browser failure that still needs verification.

Full width is the default and fills the available content workspace; standard width centers a column capped at 1,100 pixels within that workspace.
The inspected choosers, fields and forms lists, roles and policies select standard width, Tasks and the field editor select full width, and configuration editors may opt into standard width.
Record overview screens and designers are required by the layout record to collapse navigation while open and restore it on departure only when it was expanded on arrival.
Collapsing navigation enlarges full-width content while standard content remains centered, and docking the assistant reduces the workspace available to both.
