    Hey jlind ,

     

    In the new UI, you cannot un-collapse it.  I also have some users in my Tenant with the new UI and some with the old UI and I believe that is by design.  I don't like that - I wish everybody's screen looks the same.

    The way around it (MAYBE) is to have your admin uncheck the "User Experience Experiment" option.

I am going to double down on not liking the inability to uncollapse.   Who thought this was a good idea.   Some people want it collapsed.  Others not.   There are hundreds of UX models that allow for pinning such elements,  and it looks like the option existed before.

Put it back.  Please.

Indeed, the new look is not good, I like to be able to see all my workspaces without them being hidden away. That the only way to revert it is seemingly hidden in obscure tenant setting is not great, I have admin on pretty much everything and can't find it. I do wish they would stop with these continual redesigns that nobody wants and is only going to confuse the end user, or at least give very clear and easy to use options for the end user to select from. Then again, as we're waiting for nearly FOUR YEARS now for them to bring dark mode back to desktop I'm not going to hold my breath and will just have to get used to a worse experience
