Description

18-12-11 03-02-58 0041

Expected behaviour

Possibility to read long filenames on left part of panel. And remove(resize) nag panel on right side.

Actual behaviour

Absolutely useless right panel with nextcloud logo occupy more than half screen on Ipad and not possible to remove, resize or disable it. Due to it no way to recognize file names on left part of screen if its longer than 20 or so characters. In uploaded example you see in left bottom 2 files with really different names but in nextcloud client files not possible to recognize due to not expandable "...".

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue on an iPad using the Nextcloud iOS app, focusing on the file list and the fixed right-side panel. Trace the iPad layout entry point responsible for that panel and determine how its width and visibility are controlled. Done means the panel can be removed or resized and long filenames remain distinguishable.
