Pattern Decisions This Source Supports
| Pattern | Supported decision | Required contract | Claim note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Swipe action | Choose swipe action when the design problem is a horizontal item-level gesture that reveals or commits row-scoped commands. | Swipe action starts only from the intended row and horizontal axis; vertical scroll and pull-to-refresh win when movement is primarily vertical. | Supports item-level swipe gestures that reveal background content, use thresholds, and dismiss or update rows. |
