Bug Description
Hi,
ubuntu 24.04 + nautilus 46
in Nautilus « main menu » the keyboard-shortcuts list [ ctrl + ? ] reads F9 as a way to hide / unhide side panel.
I wish it were true, but it's no longer since 23.04 where F9 was disabled upstream ( https:/
Though there was a button~icon at the bottom of window for hiding / unhiding side panel.
Now this also seems gone.
So now only way to hide side pane is to adjust width of Nautilus window.
But how now to achieve this → https:/
Hiding side pane is very convenient when needing to drag and drop elements between two ( or more ) open windows of nautilus.
It can ease task for visually impaired people and people with unsure or slow hand moves.
Could F9 shortcut or dedicated button-icon ( or both ) make a comeback in Ubuntu ?

It still shows and hides the sidebar, but only in collapsed mode.
