BUG: Can't shrink/resize layers panel in figma slides design mode

In the design mode in figma slides, I noticed last week that I can’t shrink the layers panel for slides that have a lot of layers. This makes it really difficult to navigate between slides since it’s mostly covered up, and I end up toggling between slides/design mode to hide the layers panel.

This has been frustrating my team as well, makes it very difficult to navigate between slides. There was previously an ability to close the layers panel! Would really like to see that reinstated.

Hey ​@Jon9, sorry for the delayed reply! Thanks for chiming in here, ​@Hoffman

I’ve flagged this over to our Slides team to investigate. 

Jon mentioned seeing this begin in earlier this month, but ​@Hoffman - when did you start having issues with this? If we get a better timeline, the team may be able to better pin point when and how this happened.
