 ## Next
 
+### New & Improved
+
+- Scrolling now occurs within columns individually so that sidebar and header remain visible when scrolling the application body.  ([PR](https://github.com/hashicorp/boundary-ui/pull/482))
+
 ### Changes/Deprecations
 
 - Boundary origin validation now occurs via Electron's built-in net request module, ensuring the validation request is made via chromium's networking library rather than Node's.  ([PR](https://github.com/hashicorp/boundary-ui/pull/480))
