Part 2 of Gera's 2026-10-03 notes on the Company | Property bar

PR #16130

Data note. Every name and balance below comes from propflow-stage, which is anonymized by construction (ADR-0097/0110 — phones in the impossible +1000 NPA, emails @example.test). The identical capture against prod would carry real tenants' names and balances and is not safe to attach anywhere, which is why the generator refuses to run against one.

1 · Before: a building picked, split view on (main)

Main today (part 1 merged): the building chip, plus Company and the building side by side in split view, plus the Split view switch.

Before: split view with Company and building columns
⚠ Provenance. Captured from commit adcc7f3fd09, read from the worktree the server was started from (/Users/miniclaw/code/PropFlow/propflowai-ev-scope-main) — the server could not report its own commit, so this is the weaker of the two sources. ⚠ That is the current tip of origin/main. If this section is labelled a BEFORE, it is not one — it is showing today's main, which already carries the change.

2 · After: a building picked, its column alone

No Split view. The building's chip is the tab, and the grid shows that building's column alone.

What to look at

There's no caption row: one column needs none, because the tab names it. Company is one click away on its tab. Edits in a column you switch away from are kept by the one save bar.

After: building chip, one column

3 · After: a second building added with +

The + adds a building and shows it. The first building stays a chip, and the chips keep a fixed order. This test company has two buildings, so with both on the bar the + is gone: it only offers buildings that aren't already there.

After: two building chips, the new one shown

4 · After: Company tab, chips stay

Company shows the company column alone. Both buildings stay on the bar as chips, ready to click.

After: Company focused with two chips

5 · After: phone

Phone width: the chips and + in the scrolling strip, with one column below.

After: phone strip

6 · After: dark

Dark theme.

After: dark

7 · After: × on both buildings, nothing picked for you (light again)

Removing the buildings goes back to Company, and the Property tab opens the list again. No building is picked for you. That fixes the old "exit a property, click Split, and it comes back" bug.

After: back to company only

Notes

This removes a control (the Split view switch) and a layout (side-by-side columns). It adds nothing new: the chips and + are part 1's. There are no new colours or icons. One column at a time keeps the compact settings width with no sideways scroll inside the grid. Second critique round: the phone strip overflows into a sideways scroll at two chips (the thin bar from part 1). The focused chip carries both the fill and the sliding underline, so the tab is clear in both themes.
