Update: Document Sets in Modern Document Libraries
reveler24 Modern document sets are rolled to all organizations. If you are still seeing the classic document set page, that should mean that either the library itself is configured to use classic, or the document set welcome page has been customized and we're detecting that and falling back to classic.
Thanks for for the update Lincoln. I’m still seeing classic view, even when configured for modern experience. I don’t have customised welcome pages either.
I did have modern document sets for a few days in that initial rollout in early June, so The issue doesn’t appear to be on my end. Seems that others are still seeing classic view as well, so there appears to be a broader issue here.
Are you you able to advise?

We are continuing the roll-out of modern document sets to more organizations. If your organization is now seeing the modern view, we'd love to hear any feedback you'd like to provide. If you're still seeing the classic welcome page, your organization will get the modern view in a later phase of the roll-out. Thanks again for your patience.

Hi Michael,
We have the document sets displaying in modern view ok, but we used to use Doc sets in classic view heavily, and cannot migrate from their in many situations because we are unable to display Document set properties on the top of the page for example, as there are no welcome pages in modern.
Can you advise if anything like this is on the roadmap at all ?

PaulRignanese In the modern view of a document set, the details pane should automatically open and show the document set's welcome page properties above other column values. Is there information that's missing from the details pane? Do we need to make the welcome page properties stand out more?

Thanks for the update Michael.
Do you have any information on when the rollout phases are set to be completed? In other words, worst case scenario how long could we be waiting?

Hello everybody, I'm sorry to say I made a mistake. Modern Document Sets are currently 100% of Targeted Release. We're working on one more bug fix and will then move it as quickly as we can to all of production. I'm sorry for the confusion that my last message caused, as well as the delay of this rollout in general.

LincolnDeMaris is the bug fix for the wrong icon when the content type is switched? If not, are you all planning on resolving that? Another user said this has existed for previous versions as well.

iDrive The recent bug fix didn't affect the icon issue - that's a symptom of the issue we have in classic views.
