Navigation hides the management sub menu

[AlonaNadler]

Kibana version: master
I selected the management using the new navigation,
For a second I wondered was is it, since the navigation bar hides the management menu

It only becomes visible after I move from the bar and wait a few seconds for the bar to collapse
Anything we can do?

This still happens in 7.0.0-rc1-3d389d78. Given this is new UI, it feels like a bug the first time using it. Selecting other apps seems to work as designed.

We once made the collapsable sidebar expanded by default (#8058) which feels like the best approach.

Changes were made to the side nav so that is collapsed by default and no longer opens on hover. There is a toggle to temporarily expand it and it then closes when you click outside or switch to another app.

I'm not sure which build this will start showing up in, but the screenshot about tells me that you're looking at the initial version, since the fixed button at bottom is not present, like this:

7.0.0-rc1-3d389d78 has the collapse button and it appears to function as designed. The issue now is the Management page does not behave like the other apps where the menu is collapsed when landing on the Management page.

Clicking anywhere on the page outside of the nav does collapse the menu to reveal the management sub menu-- it is not an intuitive UI experience since something else has to be clicked to reveal what is hiding beneath the sidebar.

For starters, it should collapse on any nav click in this latest version. That’s a bug.

This is being addressed via EUI - elastic/eui#1770

We will try to backport the fix we made into 7.0 before it releases, but the issue mentioned above is now fixed in master.
