STR:
1. move an icon in the fast dial
2. slide your finger on that area

Actual result: the icon will slide
Expected result: nothing should happen

I'm not sure if this is a bug.  I was under the impression that we might actually put more in the dock and also have the dock swivel in a possible later version?

@jcarpenter ?

@mounirlamouri Let's discuss this one Monday in Sao Paulo WW. I want to make sure I understand the issue being discussed. As @nhirata points out, we do have a scrolling dock now, but I'm not sure if that's the issue.

Yes, the scrolling dock is weird. Seems like it is by design though. Did you do user testing? I might be surprised because I'm using Android and Android has a dock but not scrolling.

Neither Android nor iPhone has a scrolling dock.  I think we would be the first.

I believe that's correct :) The TEF home screen UX concepts originally spec'd a more ambitious Carousel with live content previews. The current dock is a descendant of that approach. The idea is that over time users will populate the dock with the 4-9 apps they use most frequently, skipping the need to access the full Grid.

We do in-fact have a sliding dock. Please reopen with additional details if this is still an issue.
