I have a listbox with each row being a persons name
and there are 6 actions that could occur
- Reorder the list
- add a new person
- delete the selected person (and all related records)
- edit the record (goes to a new screen with much more detail)
- go to a reports menu for the selected “person” (also another screen, a selection of graphs and reports about “person”)
- got to a list of related records (a menu like screen), this allows multiple related records in about a dozen categories to be entered as “child” records to the “person”
Right now I have a toolbar with “report”,“trash”,“edit”, “add”, “reorder”
the “list of related items” is accessed by tapping the rows accessory icon
reorder is a toggle
This doesn’t feel right (and most likely isn’t expected workflow)
I could add “swipe left” to show a “per row” [Delete/Edit] selection, perhaps a longpress to toggle reorder (hmmm)
I’ve also considered adding a “dummy” row that says “Add a new profile”, (there won’t usually be more than 4 or 5 entries on this screen)
the 1st three items remain on the same screen, the last 3 navigate to a new screen for each selection
