Summary Card vs. Side Panel

kathryngz

First, thanks to the FamilySearch devs for their great work!

As you all have probably noticed, when you click a person's name in the new pedigree view, it brings up a side panel instead of the usual summary card.

After using both, I want to cast my vote for keeping the summary card. When I click a name, I just want to see minimum information; if I want more, I can go to the profile (details) page.

The side panel seems to be overkill--it includes almost everything from the profile page. Also, it takes up a lot of screen real estate.

Thanks!
