Consider fixed nav on scroll #352

Open xmatthewx opened 8 years ago

As discussed in Redpen, consider making the main nav fixed at the top of the view on mobile, after a user scrolls down below the header. Thoughts @kristinashu @mmmavis?

Are you thinking fixed nav on scroll plus the back-to-top button? That seems overkill so we should just choose one.

My vote would be for the back-to-top button. This way users can access both the main menu items and the date picker.

I also find fixed menus after scroll down can be very jittery (but it's been a while so maybe they're better now).

Back to top is not a very common pattern. It's pretty easy to fling back to the top. And that big button spot is often used for Edit or Add New. It's a lot of prominence and feels distracting.

Here's a smooth fixed menu example.

Weird, that example isn't fixed on my iphone? By jittery I mean on phones when it isn't a straightforward fixed nav (only the very top part is fixed). What we're proposing is to scroll a little and then fix what is below.

If @mmmavis is up for trying it then I'm game. I would put it at a low priority 'enhancement' tho.

yea let's put this as an enhancement ticket - I won't have time to tackle this until other major event app related changes are done.
