+
+<p>Grid lists are an alternative to standard list views. They are best suited for showing data sets
+that represent themselves through images. In contrast to simple lists, grid lists may scroll either
+vertically or horizontally.</p>
+
+
+
+<h2 id="generic_grid">Generic Grids</h2>
+
+
+<p>The items in a grid list are arranged in two dimensions, one of which is fixed when scrolling
+content. The scrolling direction dictates the ordering of the items within the grid list. Since the
+scrolling direction is not deterministic, make it easy for the user to determine the orientation by
+cutting off grid items to communicate where the overflow is located.</p>
+<p>Avoid creating grid lists that scroll in two dimensions.</p>

+ <div class="layout-content-col span-6">
+
+<h4>Vertical scrolling</h4>
+<p>Vertically scrolling grid list items are sorted in traditional western reading direction:
+left-to-right and top-down. When displaying the list, cut off the items in the bottom row to
+communicate that the user can scroll the list down to show additional items. Be sure to retain this
+scheme when the user rotates the screen.</p>
+
+ </div>

+<div class="layout-content-row">
+ <div class="layout-content-col span-7">
+
+ <img src="../static/content/gridview_horizontal.png">
+
+ </div>
+ <div class="layout-content-col span-6">
+
+<h4>Horizontal scrolling</h4>
+<p>Horizontally scrolling lists fix the vertical axis of the item grid. Compared to vertically
+scrolling lists, the sorting changes slightly to a top-down and left-to-right arrangement. Employ
+the same technique of cutting off the items in the rightmost column to indicate the scrolling
+direction.</p>
+<p>Don't use scrolling tabs as a means to switch views in conjunction with horizontally scrolling grid
+lists, because the horizontal gesture for view and content navigation will conflict. If you show
+scrolling tabs for view navigation together with a grid list, use vertical grid scrolling for list
+navigation.</p>

+
+
+<h2 id="with_labels">Grid List with Labels</h2>
+
+<p>Use labels to display additional contextual information for your grid list items.</p>

+ <div class="layout-content-col span-6">
+
+<h4>Style</h4>
+<p>Use semi-transparent panels on top of the grid list items to display your labels. This allows you to
+control the contrast and ensures legibility of the labels while letting the content "shine through".</p>
