Migrating 2.3 applications like SmartDirt and SmartGrade require a different interface and the example below attempt to solve the issues of migration and provide an interface pattern for future products.
The example below use more optimized layouts for portrait and landscape than 2.3 versions. These are for the phone (Galaxy III). Tablets may require different layouts as well.
DEV NOTE: Title will NOT say “AGTEK Smartdirt”. The modern implementation has an AGTEK logo in the lower left corner, so title will simply say “SmartDirt”.
DEV NOTE: Layer button on images is not present in SmartDirt migration, that's a holdover from something else. Graphic Designer made an ooops.

The new action bar makes some items more equal than others and requires prioritizing functions. The menu order and listing for main mode 4.0 is this:
Also notice that Track is no longer an option on the menu. Instead it will move permanently to the screen below the zoom controller. We can also remove the option to remove it from the Preferences tab.
The measure mode menu for 4.0 has the following priorities:
Note that I expanded the measure mode to include File, Save and Settings. With 2.0 menus the goal was to not go to multiple menu screens. We no longer have to make that compromise for 4.0 systems. 2.3 systems will still function but will end up with a More menu item.
SmartGrade follows the same patterns and screen elements as SmartDirt but has many more menus and modes. I am not planning on doing SmartGrade 4.0 screens for the Wiki.
