Form Filling

Form Filling in a View

1. Pane header
2. Content area for form elements
3. Pane footer containing navigational buttons

Form filling is done when the user is creating or editing content using standard UI form components. Examples of form filling include creating or editing a calendar event or modifying app preferences. See the webOS TouchPad Wireframe Stencils for examples of common form-filling UI components.

As with interactive pop-ups, form filling is considered an example of a task flow, and so utilizes the Task Flow Navigation pattern. As such, the form fill elements are placed within the content area, and buttons that are used for navigating through the task flow, such as "Done", "Cancel" and "Back", are placed in the footer area. Note that these buttons would not generally be present on phones, as phones would rely on the Back gesture area for navigation.

See the Navigation Patterns section for further details.
