[V16] - Edit content in full width mode

[Didier-Marin]

Which Umbraco version are you using?

16.2.0

Bug summary

I have a document type allowing listview display (Structure/Presentation/Collection)
When creating children below that document type, they appear correctly in the listview, but also in the Tree view

When clicking on the child in the Tree, the child content is opened full with for editing

But if I click on the child in the listview, it opens in a dialog for editing

Specifics

No response

Steps to reproduce

Create a document type allowing listview display (Structure/Presentation/Collection) and another document type that can be created below this one

Create a content of that 1st document type
Add children below this node,

They appear correctly in the listview, but also in the Tree view

When clicking on the child in the Tree, the child content is opened full with for editing
When clicking on the child in the listview, it opens in a dialog for editing

Expected result / actual result

The first level of edition should be full width, and not in a dialog

Hi there @Didier-Marin!

Firstly, a big thank you for raising this issue. Every piece of feedback we receive helps us to make Umbraco better.

We really appreciate your patience while we wait for our team to have a look at this but we wanted to let you know that we see this and share with you the plan for what comes next.

• We'll assess whether this issue relates to something that has already been fixed in a later version of the release that it has been raised for.
• If it's a bug, is it related to a release that we are actively supporting or is it related to a release that's in the end-of-life or security-only phase?
• We'll replicate the issue to ensure that the problem is as described.
• We'll decide whether the behavior is an issue or if the behavior is intended.

We wish we could work with everyone directly and assess your issue immediately but we're in the fortunate position of having lots of contributions to work with and only a few humans who are able to do it. We are making progress though and in the meantime, we will keep you in the loop and let you know when we have any questions.

Thanks, from your friendly Umbraco GitHub bot 🤖 🙂

Hi @AndyButland, @Didier-Marin is a colleague of mine that is filling in while I'm off.
To add some context: in v13, doctypes configured with a "listview" didn't show in the tree. When, like us, you have 100s of children, it is not nice to have them expanded in the tree (even if "paged").
Maybe would be good to have a flag in the general settings (or just for that specific doctype) to bring back the "legacy" behaviour.

Thanks for reporting @Didier-Marin and @simonech. This is intentional, a full explanation on the thinking behind this is available here: #17463 (comment). I'll close this so we don't have a duplicate, but if you'd like to add your view to the discussion there, please do.

Ah, hang on - sorry, ignore me. I realise this point is primarily about the editing of the item. Will re-open.
