A cleaner-looking sidebar is coming your way in Notes 8.5.1

In Notes 8.5.1 you'll notice that there are fewer buttons on each of the sidebar panel titles.
We  (actually, Sheri Branco on our team-- many of you have met her at Lotusphere) did usabiity testing on manipulating the sidebar panels and, now that the dragging and resizing is easier, (as of 8.5) we determined that we did not need the other 2 buttons on each titlebar (for min/restore and for maximize). Both the  tests and our anecdotal evidence indicate that none of you use these buttons anyway :)

So here is what you'll see in Notes 8.5.1. Clicking the titlebar maximizes a panel. You can easily drag to open several at a time.
