Content views

We think you will agree that different types of information are best viewed in different ways. We have provided three standard ones: Grid, List and Full screen which we think will cover most situations.

Grid view

Content divided into rows and columns is referred to as a grid view.

  • The grid view extends vertically.

List view

Content divided into rows is referred to as a list view and can attain a variety of appearances and behaviours.

  • The list view extends vertically.
  • List items can be grouped and styled differently.

Full screen view

When a single piece of content is the main focus of the user’s attention, you should
consider displaying the content in full screen view using the full screen layout.

To navigate back to the previous view, use the page stack navigation structure.

Scrollbars are hidden until you actually need them, so they appear on touch.

The scrollbar is applied automatically whenever there is content out of view.
