What & Why

Fixes the ODE Desktop layout on small and low-resolution windows.

At widths of 1080px and below, the existing vertical sidebar is reorganized into a compact horizontal header so navigation no longer consumes most of the viewport. This keeps the active page immediately visible while preserving access to Data and Workbench navigation, the application mode switch, and server status.

Screenshot From 2026-10-07 11-52-39

The existing wide-screen sidebar layout remains unchanged.

Closes #958
