On the regular page navigation you can have multiple tools to a page and visible at once. On the PDA portal you can only have one tool to a visible at a time so it displays each tool individually.

>> The PDA portal is expected to change in the future when/if dashboard becomes part of the build and the primary focus of this mobile portal, which would make synoptic tools unnecessary, the primary use case for multiple tools per page.
