Split view

Split view displays a list and a record form side by side. You can browse records in the list on the left and view or edit the selected record on the right - without leaving the list.

Opening split view

Toggle split view from the list toolbar. The system remembers your preference for each app, so you only need to set it once.

  • Full-list mode - the list takes up the entire screen. Click a record to open it in a full page.
  • Split mode - the list appears on the left and the record form appears on the right.

Working with records in split view

Click any record in the list to open it in the right panel. You can switch between records quickly while keeping your list context.

  • Scroll position and filter state are preserved when you switch records
  • Filters and faceted filtering continue to work alongside split view
  • Related records can be opened from the form panel using standard navigation
  • Breadcrumbs show your current position within the app

Unsaved changes warning

If you have unsaved changes in the form panel and click a different record, Comind displays a confirmation prompt. Choose to save your changes, discard them, or stay on the current record.

Layout and sizing

The split view divides the screen between the list and the form panel. The width ratio adjusts based on your screen size to keep both panels usable.

  • On wide screens, the form panel gets more space for comfortable editing
  • On standard screens, the layout balances space between the list and the form
  • The system avoids unnecessary record refreshes when you switch between list views

Responsive behavior

Split view adapts to your screen width automatically.

  • On narrow screens, split view is disabled and records open in full-page mode instead
  • On mobile devices, full-page navigation is used exclusively
  • When you return to a wider screen, your split view preference is restored
