[SUGGESTION] Sidebar hover effect equal to version 2 when collapsed.
Adding the same hover effect to the same sidebar is done in version 2. The current effect when the sidebar is collapsed when hovering is opened to the whole sidebar instead of displaying only menu items and sub-items.
As long as it doesn't affect, alter or remove the way it works now. The current expansion is awesome and probably my favorite enhancement in V3! The old V2 way that you're requesting is probably the only thing I really didn't like. It remimded me of the file explorer context menus in older versions of Windows... out by a pixel and poof it's gone and you have to start over. But we all have our preferences.
Edit: Silly me and dumb GitHub I thumbed up my this post by accident and it added it...
I see it like @GaryQ, I've never used it and it works only without fixed layout. I did some quick tests and it's hard to get the behavior in good shape.
BTW kudos on V3 @REJack. Now I just need to learn how to set it up to use only the dependencies I need...
@GaryQ Thanks 😄 what exactly you mean, as a good start you can use the starter.html it use only the required files (popper js, jquery js, bootstrap css/js, Source Sans Pro google font link, fontawesome css & adminlte css/js). If you want to use fixed layout you need overlayScrollbars css/js also. That's the minimum deps you will need anything else are additional plugins, I prefer also to load only the needed plugins on the desired page to reduce loading times.
Thanks for the tips. Much appreciated. I'm pretty lost and phased out by modern web/app development. Assembly language back in 1985 was easier to learn and use. I wasted months trying to simply declutter and reformat Firefly III but it's more work than starting from scratch when the code changes constantly and is never really stable. BUT there was 1 thing it had that I really liked: AdminLTE V2 as the template... which led me here and then I saw the V3 early stages and was waiting for it to come to fruition. Now it's here! so I can stop and put that effort to better use learning how to use AdminLTE. I'm not trying to bash his project it's probably the best available out there but it's just not for me. But it did give me great ideas of what to do, what not to do and what to use as a template :)
Is there any prediction as to whether this suggestion will be implemented? I too would appreciate this feature. Thanks for the great work :)
@gongAll At the moment I don't have any plans to implement this, but I will look over it while I development v3.1.
I've checked the code and at the moment it's hard to implement, I'll check it again while the v4 development/rework.
