5.1 Flyout Navigation

  • The standard left-hand menu is replaced with a slim rail of icons.
  • Hover or click an icon to expand a panel listing related menu items.
  • The grouping is logical: content items together, settings and tools together, etc.
  • Tooltips appear on hover; keyboard users can tab, arrow, and press Enter/Esc.

ℹ Why it helps: Instead of scrolling through dozens of text links, you see a clean row of icons, and dive into details only when needed.
