One way to create the stacked list/details pattern is to use separate pages for the list pane and the details pane. To the user, it appears as though the list and details views exist on two separate pages. The user starts at the list pane and "drills down" to the details pane by selecting an item in the list. In the stacked style, only one pane is visible at a time: the list or the details. When implementing the list/details pattern, we recommend that you use either the stacked style or the side-by-side style, based on the amount of available screen space.
