Flyte

:wave: hey everyone, we're using release 1.9 and found that for flyte console, disabling a feature flag via `HORIZONTAL_LAYOUT` env var doesn't seem to work, but setting it to false via the URL parameter `horizontal-layout` works (found a related issue: <https://github.com/flyteorg/flyte/issues/4047#issuecomment-1723528573|4047#issuecomment-1723528573>) - wanted to check if this is a bug with the release

the motivation here from our side is that horizontal layout doesn't work well with the navigation bar:

Hey <@U04UAHP1WNA>. Thanks for posting this.  

I have a few questions: how are you setting the env variable? Do other Flyte console env vars work?

Are you passing a custom navigation in? I don’t recognize the component from your screenshot. Your team may need to update it if it’s a custom nav bar. 

thanks for your reply <@U057D7X6JSJ>!
• we set the env variable via <https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/inject-data-application/define-environment-variable-container/|container env variables>
• for the navbar, we pass in `FLYTE_NAVIGATION` env var with one item, and Flyte console ends up rendering a dropdown with `Console` and the item we pass in
    ◦ I'm not sure how we can update this since it's rendered on the Flyte console side - I didn't see any updates to the readme: <https://github.com/flyteorg/flyteconsole/blob/master/packages/console/src/components/Navigation/Readme.md>
