P: Lightroom Classic: Panel Scroll Bar / Close annoyance

I should be fixed by making only the close/open Arrow active, not the whole side.  I don't think closing/opening a single side panel is a such common occurrence that having  to cursor to the arrow would be a big problem.  

That being said, I don't think I have ever accidentally closed the right panel.

Yes - every post is read and evaluated by Adobe staff.  25 Votes in 5 years is fairly low volume as feature requests go putting this request at #91 on the active list.

Maybe the volume is low but the annoying factor is big! It happens to me, every single day and I use LR a lot. It's not that Adobe has to redesign the whole software, just to add the option, show (and lock) will do 😉

It happens to me every single day!! So yes, please change it and add the option to show and lock the panel.

TIA

Copying and pasting your link sends me to a 404 page.   

Leads to a dead end for me

Do you use a Wacom? It happens to me all the time..

Just an option to show the panel (and lock it) would be perfect to me. 

The slider doesn't need to be wider.  What is needed is make it so only clicking the arrow closes the side panel instead of being able to click the whole side to close the panel.  I agree this is a poor design but I don't expect it to change.

That being said, I don't think I have ever accidentally closed the side panel as the scroll bar seems wide enough for me.
