Definitely room for an actual menu there.
Either way, a hidden hamburger menu makes 0 sense on a desktop environment anyway, no matter how much space you have.
- mdorazio 8y agoAnd I don't think you're correct. There are 5 menu items + log in + the API docs button on the main header. If you want all those to fit in a sub-standard width page, you're going to end up sacrificing readability in text. If you want to propose removing a menu item to make more space, that's an option, but just saying "I don't like the hamburger - they could fit the menu somehow" is not helpful.
- huebomont 8y agoWhat you do is fit the important stuff and hide the rest under a "more..." just because it ALL can't fit doesn't mean hiding everything is the only solution.
- mdorazio 8y agoWhat is "important" in this context? Resources and About? Do you just hide stuff under "More" from right to left as you run out of space? How many people are actually going to click or hover on "More" to find out what's under there? There's a reason design trends have been shifting toward hamburger menus for smaller layouts - it's the best design choice for usability and lack of confusion once people get used to what the hamburger icon means.
- huebomont 8y agoThat's all stuff for the designer and content to determine. But if there's room, it's always better to show the user the choices they have than not.
