Expected result

Notch/island area is padded, no vacant space on left-side screen edge.

Actual result

UI is clipped on the right, wasted blank space on left screen edge. As a result, right-side elements (such as Canvas toolbar) can be hidden/inaccessible, and it looks broken.

Additional information

It’s apparent that the app assumes that the notch/island is always left-side.

I can reproduce this. I don’t see significant clipping or hiding of elements on the right (just the top right button bubble goes slightly off the screen edge), but I also don’t use canvas.

When the right sidebar is open, it has correct padding.
