Click the icon to lock the window layout . When the layout is locked, clicking
one of the layout icons will not have any effect; this means that you cannot
change the current layout, and resize, expand, or collapse the panes of the
window.
Normally, the Secondary pane opens on demand, when you make a selection
that requires it. When the Secondary pane opens, it takes up half the space
that would otherwise be allotted to the Primary pane.
You can prevent the Secondary pane from opening by clicking the pushpin icon
and locking the Primary pane. When the Primary pane is locked, any
selections (such as Related Items) that would normally display in the
Secondary pane are instead redirected to the Primary pane.
