 Actions On List or Grid Collection

Notes/Observations:

  1. Display prominent actions directly on list view items using drop-downs

  2. This lets people invoke actions on data without having to navigate all the way down the hierarchy.

  3. This could have been handled by navigating the user to next screen and then take the action. We avoided that step by following this pattern.

Status Bar Notification – Expanding Notification Message

In Jelly Bean we can show the first few lines of a message or show a larger image preview. This provides the user with additional context, and – in some cases – may allow the user to read a message in its entirety. The user can pinch-zoom or two-finger glide in order to toggle between base and expanded layouts. For single event notifications, Android provides two expanded layout templates (text and image) to re-use in the application.
