** Description changed: - The current UX for tablets or when converged with a mouse attached is a bit of a placeholder showing the default phablet user. - Remove mention of the phablet user - Honor the current lock mode and present UI accordingly. + The current UX for tablets or when converged with a mouse attached is a + bit of a placeholder showing the default phablet user. + + We need to support two modes of the greeter that scales according to the + available input devices. The first one is one that works across mobile + and tablet devices in non-mouse connected / touch-centric state. + Unlocking with no mouse connected would be exactly as it is today on the + phone, which displays the Infographic until you touch the screen, and + then you get a message that says "swipe to unlock" If you don't have a + pin code set, the screen unlocks. if you have a pincode set, the touch + pincode-entry pad appears. + + If a mouse is connected, however, you get the more "desktop-friendly" + greeter with the infographic, user-name and password entry field (just + like what we have today) on tablet. If the user taps or clicks into the + password edit box, the OSK is popped up (unless an external keyboard is + also attached). If no password or pincode has been set, then instead of + the password entry field, you would instead have a "login" button that + clears the greeter. + + On a tablet with mouse connected and no pincode set, the user could + either swipe away the greeter or tap on the login button. If the user + has a password/pincode set and attempts to swipe away the greeter, we + should put up a hint message asking the user to enter their + password/pincode to continue. + + This incremental enhancement to recognize the mouse is more consistent + with convergence because tablets are mobile devices, and if no mouse is + attached, we should follow a touch-centric approach. In a mouse- + connected state, we can assume the user will be favoring that device.
