  • Carousel mode options / behaviors

    Good Morning!

    I was looking at the carousel mode as potentially a way to add a few related apps into one app, and let the user move between them. Sort of an alternative to a tabbed window (which would be a nice way to display/navigate a carousel).

    Carousel works, and it does encapsulate the 3 apps as desired, but the UI is not obvious to an end-user. I know it was designed for kiosk mode, but a couple small changes could make it better (unless they are there and I am just missing them!):
    1. Add carousel navigation options (first, last, next, previous) to the Behaviors so a button can control the carousel
    2. An option for a top or bottom tab bar with section text instead of the breadcrumbs at the bottom
    3. An option to disable/enable sections (maybe by app variable)
    That last option could enable us to create a "wizard" type UI where the user progresses through a series of tabs from start to finish and we control if they can go back or not to prior pages.

    I know I could currently do this with a series of buttons, but it seemed like a good extension of the carousel feature so wanted to share...

    What do you think?
