Thread: Summary Dots
View Single Post
Before shipping, we discussed whether the dots should match the filter, or show all remaining items. Our goal was a "gut sense" of the project that would be unlikely to confuse people.

The behavior we settled on ensures that a project won't be underestimated based on a view filter that implies "all is well" when the project's hidden actions really want attention.

When we get back to developing the iPhone app, it may be worth taking the time to add the additional view behavior as an option for those who are more bothered by the clutter and not so concerned about being misled by a filtered state.
