Using the New Revamped Sidebar in Funnel & Website Builders
This article introduces Patient Copilot’s revamped right-hand sidebar in the Funnel & Website Builder, showcasing how its three context-aware tabs- General, Styles, and Animations- organize element controls for faster, more intuitive editing. You’ll learn what each tab offers, discover collapsible panels and persistent states that streamline your workflow, and find tips for getting the most out of the updated interface. * * * * * * ## Understanding Collapsible Panels To improve focus and minimize distractions, settings within each tab are now grouped into collapsible panels. - You can open or close individual panels as needed.
- Panels retain their state throughout your editing session.
- Advanced or less-used settings can stay collapsed for a cleaner view. This provides a more organized workspace, especially during complex builds.!(https://assets.patientcopilot.ai/f6ad121868b9c394.gif) * * * ## Persistent Panel & Tab State Behavior The updated sidebar improves efficiency with smart, session-based memory for tabs and panels. - Tab memory: The last active tab remains selected when switching between elements.
- Panel memory: Collapsed or expanded states persist as you move through elements.
- New element behavior: When adding a new element, all panels open by default to help with quick access. These enhancements eliminate the need to repeatedly open panels or tabs, saving time during design iterations. !(https://assets.patientcopilot.ai/0d60595a8934d457.gif) * * * ## UI Enhancements and Styling Improvements This revamp introduces a minimal, modern aesthetic that aligns with Patient Copilot’s broader interface improvements. - Reduced visual noise with improved spacing and layout.
