- Collapsing of factboxes (seems not yet supported in BCoP)
- Promoted actions that appear on factboxes (they are no longer promoted and are one click further away in BCoP)

Lost access to my previous account. I wanted to know if there is any update on this. Problem: If parts are side by side -> it's impossible for them to be collapsable and it's impossible to have promoted actions

Even more detail: ”Creating a FastTab is easy. A FastTab is a group control directly within the content area of a card, document, or task page.”In the Content area of the hosting page, parts can only be collapsed if they satisfy the following rules:parts are hosted on a task dialog, card, or document page.parts aren't placed within a FastTab.”(1) This means that they have to be their own group and cannot be part of another group "When placing two ListParts in a group, they share horizontal space." (2) This is the only way to have parts side by side(1) + (2) = It’s impossible to have them side by side and also be collapsable/expandable. As for the actions issue: In the Content area of the hosting page, parts will only display an expanded action menu if they satisfy the following rules:parts are hosted on a card or document page.parts aren't placed within a FastTab.”Meaning again, that it's impossible to have them side by side and also have promoted actions.

My 2p:
- Collapsing factboxes would mean they wouldn't take up space aside from their title/'handle', giving a quick way for users to 'reveal' (shift up) subsequent factboxes that they care about more, this revealing more data more quickly, without having to e.g. scroll past other factboxes they don't care about.
- Promoted actions on factboxes would mean users could have important/common/convenient buttons available to click directly on the factbox, rather than having to first click on the title to open a submenu of actions. That means one click instead of two - which is always good to have as an option to speed up UX - and restoring a removed feature...!
