Spliter in the low band version

Question

Love the low band version of msdn.

I would love to see a vertical splitter between the left menu and the main content area.  I find that most of the left menu gets cut off and I think it would be a great feature.

Answer 1

I Like this idea.  Hope it is doable.

Answer 2

Thanks for your feedback. Currently if you hover over the title you can read the full title. We will see if the splitter can be accomplished without scripts in our loband (Script-Free) version. Cheers.

Answer 3

Arand,

Thanks for taking a look at this.  Will the loband be rolled out to more MS subdomains?

Answer 4

Currently it's targetted for "library" only. Would you prefer to get a loband version for other domains. I will be happy to take this feedback to my team. Thanks.

Answer 5

The problem with hovering over the titles is that is takes time and is kind of a hassle.   I'm not sure if it's possible but can you reduce the amount of time is takes for a tool tip to appear?

Anand,

Wherever it would be appropriate is what I'd like.  I tend to be more development and productivity tools oriented myself, and rarely venture into the consumer grade end-user areas.  Op systems, servers, mobile, Office, developer tools is where I hang out, although I do troll MS Research from time to time. The "Search Microsoft Technet" is my default FF search engine, and one of the first icons on *all* my desktops is Microsoft Update.
