Is there an existing issue for this?

  • I have searched the existing issues

Summary

As sidebar does not allow to shrink it down (#6627) the other two panels can share only the rest of space, wich is very limited. This make app usage insufficient and feels buggy.

Problem 1: Request tabs does not fit

Solution: add option to hide not used tabs (pre\post-request scripts for me is enough)

Problem 2: Batch parameters edit panel (CrtrlF) Full width

With limited width

Solution: wrapped to the next line if it does not fit.

Problem 3: Parameters table columns has fixed width and does now allow to fit all values

Solution: make width of each column resizable

Also, it would be good to have on params table

  • on\off buttons column on the first place (drag can be placed on a border), to make reading for the enabled params easy and avoid miss clicks with delete button. I know it can be easy read in the batch mode, but in this case we lost description column visibility.
  • option to shrink description column to the icons (gray\colored for empty\filled message-balloon, with value in tooltip on mouse over).

Why should this be worked on?

This make vertical layout much more usable
