improvement(sidebar): expand sidebar by hovering and clicking the edge by waleedlatif1 · Pull Request #3830 · simstudioai/sim

waleedlatif1 · 2026-03-28T20:24:22Z

Summary

Added an invisible hit zone along the sidebar's right edge so users can expand/collapse it without using the button at the top
When collapsed: hovering shows an `e-resize` cursor, clicking expands the sidebar
When expanded on a workflow page: hovering shows an `ew-resize` cursor, dragging resizes the sidebar
Moved the handle outside the `` (which has `overflow-hidden`) into a sibling wrapper `div` with `relative` positioning to prevent clipping

PR Summary

Medium Risk
Medium risk due to changes in global keyboard shortcut matching and sidebar interaction/resize behavior, which could introduce regressions in key handling or pointer/keyboard accessibility.

Overview
Improves sidebar usability by adding an invisible right-edge hit zone: when collapsed it can be clicked/keyboard-activated to expand, and when on workflow pages it preserves drag-to-resize behavior without being clipped by the sidebar’s overflow-hidden.

Adds new global commands/shortcuts for creating a workflow (Mod+Shift+P) and a task (Mod+Shift+K), updates sidebar buttons/tooltips to display these shortcuts, and makes global shortcut matching more reliable on international keyboards by falling back from KeyboardEvent.key to KeyboardEvent.code.

Adjusts the universal search modal horizontal positioning to account for the current --sidebar-width rather than always centering on the viewport.

Greptile Summary

This PR improves sidebar UX by adding an invisible 8 px hit zone on the sidebar's right edge that allows users to expand (when collapsed) or resize (when expanded on a workflow page) without relying solely on the top button. It also corrects the SearchModal horizontal centering to account for the sidebar width, fixes keyboard-shortcut matching for international keyboard layouts, and adds Mod+Shift+P / Mod+Shift+K shortcuts for creating workflows and tasks.

Confidence Score: 5/5

Safe to merge — no P0 or P1 issues found; all changes are well-reasoned and structurally correct.

The structural overflow-hidden fix is sound, the --sidebar-width CSS variable is reliably maintained throughout the codebase, the search-modal centering formula is mathematically verified, the ARIA/keyboard concerns from the prior review thread are fully addressed, and the codeToKey international-keyboard fallback is correct. No regressions identified.

No files require special attention.

Important Files Changed

Filename	Overview
apps/sim/app/workspace/[workspaceId]/w/components/sidebar/sidebar.tsx	Major structural refactor: wraps aside in a div.relative.h-full so the resize/expand handle sits outside overflow-hidden, preventing clipping; adds edge-click expand for collapsed state; wires up new add-workflow/add-task shortcut handlers and keyboard-accessible edge handle.
apps/sim/app/workspace/[workspaceId]/w/components/sidebar/components/search-modal/search-modal.tsx	Search modal now centers in the content area (right of sidebar) rather than the full viewport by using calc(var(--sidebar-width) / 2 + 50%) — mathematically correct with the existing -translate-x-1/2 class.
apps/sim/app/workspace/[workspaceId]/providers/global-commands-provider.tsx	Adds codeToKey() helper and a codeToKey(e.code) fallback in matchesShortcut so shortcuts fire correctly on international keyboard layouts where e.key yields non-ASCII characters.
apps/sim/app/workspace/[workspaceId]/utils/commands-utils.ts	Registers two new command IDs (add-workflow → Mod+Shift+P, add-task → Mod+Shift+K) and their definitions; straightforward addition.
