File preview for low-width screens such as smartphones #10914

I think it's a good idea to move it to the bottom of the file picker in low-width screens.

That's actually a good idea, I don't know why that never occurred to me before. Though there would be significantly less space than shown in your screenshot when the keyboard is up, which would be most of the time.

But still, could be a good UX improvement regardless. Might be best if there was a way to toggle it on and off dynamically though.

There's a vertical layout proposed in https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/pull/7783 that might solve this
