Take the 2-minute tour ×  Think of a smartphone style flat list
with items that can belong to one of three priorities: High,
medium and low. Each priority is separated with an inline
header.  Now suppose we have a small viewport, where you can
only see a portion of the list at a time. If you scroll to a
position, where the priority headers are not visible, you might
lose track of which priority "section" you're in.  Thus we have
a scenario like this:  Scenario with small viewport and long
scrollable list  My question is:  If repeating priority on each
item is too much redundancy and sticky headers (like in the
iPhone contacts list) are unfeasible, what would be a good
alternative way to communicate priority regardless of scroll
position?  share|improve this question What about indenting each
