What's Wrong?

When attempting to switch from Home to Code tab using the sidebar while it's collapsed, clicking the popup that appears doesn't work. The sidebar must be manually expanded first before the Code tab can be accessed.

What Should Happen?

Clicking the popup should directly open the Code tab, regardless of whether the sidebar is collapsed or expanded.
