UIO button (gear in circle) appears on the bottom left corner when the user opens a page. The button disappears (transitioning downward) when the user scrolls down the page content. The button reappears (transitioning upward) when the user scrolls up the page content.
The preference panel opens (transitioning upward, overlapping content) when the user selects the UIO button.

Notes from Community Meeting discussion about UI Options mobile designs
November 5, 2014
panels on desktop version are fixed-width, but this is not good for mobile
we should use relative widths instead
should we use same styling as for desktop (with updated adjusters that work best for mobile)
e.g. use text-field steppers like those used in the Cloud4All PMT/PCP
change the on/off switches also to match Cloud4All
should we limit the max font size for mobile
what are some other mobile-specific issues for the other preferences?
the current design:
uses space well
has no reset/undo button
has no responsive/landscape design
affects itself (prefs apply to tool)?
integrated into system
breadcrumb dots are good
not consistently styled with desktop (does this matter?)
Details:
emphasis button - active/inactive states seem reversed
captions language drop-down and space
arrow at bottom - need top and bottom? remove altogether?
Merits of live preview on mobile?
use full screen for panels?
if yes, we need a reset button since user will not experience effects of preference adjustments until they close UIO
