My welcome pages works only in the classic view, is that correct? Even when i copied the new view as the new welcome page.
@WackMac50 that is correct. That blog only shows you how to get the modern experience when inside a document set. The Welcome page and its webparts are only in classic mode today. I don't think Microsoft has any roadmap information on when modern will be available for the Welcome page.
For now, any metadata you have with your document set, they are ALL listed in the detail/info pane on the right. If you have 6 to 12, it is tolerable. If you have 80+, it is difficult to control the user experience. "Edit all" is a good way to open up a cleaner interface. But if the user only has Read access to the document set, they have to use the detail/info pane on the right to view the document set metadata. There is no "View all".
