Design

• At the top of the mobile page is the RecipeFinder Header and Task Bar, preset to "Saved Recipes". See the Header & Task bar page for more information.
• At the top of the page is the search bar. This includes a text entry field and two filtering buttons.
  • Tapping in the text entry field brings up a keyboard from the bottom of the page. Entering text filters the list; only menu items matching the list will be displayed. Erasing text from the field resets the filter.
  • The A-Z button cycles sorting from A-Z to Z-A.
  • The Small-Large button on the furthest right cycles sorting from most commonly selected to least commonly selected.
• If the user does not enter any search terms, the display area shows all of the user's favourited recipes.
• Each dish is presented in a list with an "X" icon next to each recipe.
  • Tapping on the recipe name takes the user to the View Specific Recipe page.
  • Tapping on the 'X' will remove the entry from the user's favourites.
  • Alternatively checking on the already checked "Thumbs Up" button when viewing a specific recipe will also remove the recipe from the user's list of favorite recipes.
• The user can scroll up and down if there are more items than can fit on the screen.
  • A maximum of 6 items will be displayed at a time to prevent any performances losses when loading recipes.
