Pattern Decisions This Source Supports
| Pattern | Supported decision | Required contract | Claim note |
|---|---|---|---|
| User-controlled layout | Choose user-controlled layout when users choose the arrangement, visibility, or order of workspace regions around the same task object. | Changing layout rearranges regions but does not change the active record, dataset, filters, columns, sort, density, theme, or saved view unless the user explicitly chooses those changes. | Supports the idea that users customize workspace layout by adjusting boundaries between panels. |
| Window splitter | Choose window splitter when adjacent panes are both part of the same durable workspace and users need control over their relative sizes. | The splitter separates two named panes and communicates which pane size its value represents. | Salt describes splitters as adjustable boundaries between panels for customized horizontal or vertical workspace layout. |
