Hi Olga,

Sorry for the bad explanation of the issue. Yes, it's an app-related issue: we 
already have the code for swiping the list item, but we disabled it.
The task in this bug report was basically a to-do entry for me, rather than an 
explicit request to the ux team. My fault!

The problem is that we need to provide those actions (e.g. delete a document, 
move to sd card, etc.), which are activated by a swipe, also in the grid view, 
but the swipe gesture does not seem to be suitable for being used in a grid.
A solution we were considering was to use a context menu, triggerable by a 
button placed in the grid delegate, as done for example in the Android Google 
Play app[1].

I'm not sure though whether it fits with the Ubuntu UX guidelines.

The page which requires this improvement is the first/welcome/main page
of the app, where the user can scroll a list of documents in the device,
and pick one to be opened and read by the PDF viewer.
