The Top Sites tile group's thumbnail tiles turn into standard tiles, the Bookmarks tile group and History tile group are moved from their location to the right of the Top Sites tile group to the location underneath the Top Sites tile group in snapped view.

In filled view,a user can page through the Top sites, Bookmarks and  Tabs from other Devices tile groups ( if sync is enabled)  by swiping the groups.

This STR needs updating post the unified nav bar work, specifically - 

* The user sees the app bars disappear, the Top Sites tile group's thumbnail tiles turn into standard tiles, and Bookmarks tile group and History tile group are moved from their location to the right of the Top Sites tile group to the location underneath it.

The app bar and the nav bar are now combined. The nav bar does not hide when flipping to snapped view, only the tab bar goes away.

Also not sure if it's a bug, the but navbar edit only takes up half of the snapped view width. Seems like that might be a bug.

Other than this - verified it7.

The story needs a minor update to match the latest thinking incorporated by Yuan and Stephen but it's basically working as expected.

I believe this is as designed. There is no tab bar in snapped view.

Here's shorlander's mock http://people.mozilla.com/~shorlander/files/design-specs-metro/metro-designSpecs-splitView-tiles.html

The nav bar needs some work in the start view and the auto-complete view to match the spec.

We have a separate story about the url bar and snapped view in bug 831913. I filed bug 876621 and attached it to that tracking bug.

Just wanted to mention a couple of things in case you wanted to change them:

- The top sites *title* is exactly the same looking as the "Bookmarks" and "Recent History" *links*. When I first seen this I thought there was a bug that snapped view didn't show bookmarks and recent history under their respective titles.  Maybe we could have the title for "Top Sites" and the buttons for "Bookmarks" and "Recent History" be distinct? 

- When you click into "Bookmarks" or "Recent History", the alignment does not match up with the default "Top Sites" view and the tiles are cut off. 

Please let me know if you want bugs posted for any of the above.

Good catch, Brain. Please go ahead and file bugs on that.

The 1st issue:
We can solve this by adding an indicator behind "Bookmarks" and "Recent History".
An example here: https://bug826552.bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=697734
(File a bug and CC me)


The 2nd issue: 
Yes, we need to fix that. I don't have the pixels. But I think shorlander should be able to give you the right alignment and sizes of the tiles. Based on his mockup (The last 2 mockups are our direction): http://people.mozilla.com/~shorlander/files/design-specs-metro/metro-designSpecs-awesomeResults-splitView.html 

(File a bug and CC shorlander to get the right pixel number)
