Side pallet size / colour

I think I asked this a while back but...here goes:

I.m trying to style the side pallet as I use a form of vertical navigation.
Ideally, I would want just a drop-down menu in place of that fly out pallet;

if not, I'd prefer a thinner pallet, 100px instead of the minimum 200 allowed in Backlight. Trying to use CSS:

/* side pallet */
.page__pallet[data-position="T1"], .page__pallet[data-position="T2"] {
    width: 100px;
}

witch of course doesn't work.

The fact that the whole page moves, in this case to the left, is a bother I think. If at least the pallet would fly out over the page it would make the page more stable and allow for more stylistic ideas, such as a semi-transparent pallet. Just saying.

Re: Side pallet size / colour

To have the pallet show at all times (which includes your vertical navigation), change the mobile breakpoint in the Layout section of the page template. Set it at a mobile size, like 1024px

when you do this, you may need to disable horizontal navigation.

Re: Side pallet size / colour

So, I guess that having a drop-down menu "fall" from that red menu button is out. Too bad.

I guess I'll have to live with it.

Re: Side pallet size / colour

that menu button opens the pallet. No getting around that.

Re: Side pallet size / colour

So, my choices are:
-stay with the menu as is;
-go to static vertical navigation (as I originally tried);
-go with a conventional inline horizontal navigation.

Something to think about...
