In the legacy record layout, it was easy to know that the top most field would be ‘pinned’ and visible at the top of the peak window after scrolling down a page.
That doesn’t happen in the new record layout. Understandably so because the page layout is so flexible and dynamic, there isn’t necessarily a ‘top’ field to choose.
But it makes it very hard to know/change what field will be visible as our ‘breadcrumbs’ reference once we start scrolling.
The only reliable workaround I’ve found at this time is to convert back to the old layout, customize field order there, then turn the new record layout back on. It’s tedious.
I wish we could ‘pin’ or set a title field easily in the new layout.
