Several developers have requested a new mode for the Navigator so they can mimic the collapse functionality as seen in Outlook 2007 application. So here it is!
Outlook – Full
This is the new name for the existing Outlook mode. You will of course already been familiar with the following image.
Outlook – Mini
Now we switch to using the Outlook Mini mode and you can see that it has removed the page display area and put a vertical button in its place. It also removes the drawing of the stack item text in order to reduce the width required to the minimum possible.
When you click on the vertical button it then pops up the appropriate page to the side.
There are properties for controlling the position and size of the popup in order to override the default but the default should be applicable to the majority of developers.

Shouldn’t the arrow appear as “>>” in the mini mode?

The direction of the arrow is set manually and I did not change it when I was playing around for the screen shots.
