Slide View / Multi View UI Design
Slideview is a concept that goes back to my days at The Art Institute of Seattle. I designed an interface that broke from the normal rules and created a design where the items were large horizonral sliding icons. An Icon can represent a folder or an individual item and changes layout to help communicate the differences. Multi-Touch and Swipe support were added to utilize the new and cutting edge multi-touch interfaces on the market at the time. The ui was data-bound to an xml file or Sharepoint list that has a matching file structue to hold the images. Multiple views were added so the user can switch between Slide, Grid and List views.
