951114 - The 'Edit contact' dialog dismissal button is scary

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::Contacts, defect)

Description

[Adrian Custer]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.9; rv:28.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/28.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20131213004002

Steps to reproduce:

The 'Edit contact' dialog has a big 'X' in the top left corner. This looks scarily like a 'delete contact' action. Since the 'delete' is buried at the end of the screen (requires scrolling) there is no indication that this is merely a dialog dismissal button.

The use of 'X' for dialog dismissal is unfortunate when 'editing' resources. Better would be a backwards curly arrow or some such.

Hey,

Please look at the attachment to better understand the bug.

I think, the transition animation has to be changed as well.

With a "back-icon" the 'edit contact' has to show and hide from the right side to follow the UX common.
For a "close-icon" the new view comes from the bottom of the page (current animation).
