Design and Documentation In Progress
Important Links
Since a number of elements will be removed from the Channel Header, it will be refreshed to work with the rest of the layout.
The following changes will be made to the channel header:
Remove Global-level App Icons
Any app that has a global context will move to the App Bar as the new home for apps.
Add a new ‘Meet’ button
If video conference apps are configured for the user/server, a new ‘Meet’ button displays in the Channel Header.
Clean up and arrange remaining icons and controls
Shorten the height of the Channel Header to 56px (now matches Right Sidebar Header)
Show Channel Header description on hover of the left side of the channel header area
NOTE: The RHS’s header will need to match this new height when this change is made
Default State
Hover State
When users hover over the left half of the channel header area, reveal the channel header/description. Add a delay of 150ms to the hover to ensure the hover state doesn’t show when passing through the channel header area quickly.

Future Updates
In the next phase, the channel menu and channel info will display in a new Channel Info Right Sidebar View.
