Abstract: Many applications may display information through lists. For example, an email application may display a current visual interface comprising a list of emails. A gesture input may be received for an item within the item list. Responsive to receiving the gesture input, the item may be selected. In an example, the item list may be transitioned into an editing mode based upon the gesture input. While in the editing mode, context indicators (e.g., indicating whether an email item has been read or is unread) may be modified (e.g., shrunk) and/or selection indicators may be displayed for items within the item list. A selection indicator may be selected to select a corresponding item. In this way, gesture input (e.g., single gesture) may be used to select items and/or to transition the item list into the editing mode without transitioning away from the item list.
