DESCRIPTION:
I’m not sure about the exact names for this, but what I mean are the minimized active application views on the ‘desktop’.
When you want to re-order active applications you need to lift your finger and put it down again on an application to move it. Moving your finger without lifting can have different effects depending on which direction is moved (i.e. pulley menu, open application drawer, and left/right carousel).
This is a) inconvenient because it requires an extra interaction, doesn’t feel intuitive, and has the possibility of accidentally closing one or more applications when hitting the close button or activating the pulley menu. And b) it is not consistent with how application icons interact in the application drawer, where a long press does allow immediate movement.
EXPECTED RESULTS:
When long pressing on an application panel, immediately enter movement mode.
After lifting up, return to normal interaction mode (i.e. showing close buttons, close-all pulley menu, etc). The close buttons can act as a visual cue that applications can be terminated. This may serve as a sort of notice that the close-all pulley is available (a highly impactful action).
ACTUAL RESULTS:
All my applications were unexpectedly closed because I tried to move an application downward, accidentally activating the pulley menu
