Omnibar
The Omnibar is a unified interface that combines the breadcrumb path and search box into a single control. Users can switch between breadcrumb modes as desired.
Modes
Breadcrumb bar
By default, the Omnibar displays the current folder path using a breadcrumb layout.
- Breadcrumbs can be expanded using the chevron icon to reveal subfolders.
- Folder icons are shown in breadcrumb flyouts for easier identification.
- A home button and flyout menu provide quick access to pinned and frequently used folders.
