[notifications] remove combo button from incoming call snap

[Olga Kemmet]

Build r123

The current incoming snap decision has a combo button for additional options, allowing users to reply with a quick message if they are busy/can not take the call. This combo button has two hit areas which caused a lot of confusion with users. One part DECLINES the call the other expands for additional options.
Please remove combo button and replace with a toggle button with only one hit area. Hitting that button will reveal an expansion with additional options to users for a quick reply. Remove the CUSTOM option in the quick reply menu.

This is actually two-fold... first the notification-frontend (notification-plugin in unity8) needs to change the used UI-elements for additional actions (> 2 actions).

Secondly, the telephony-service needs to change the actions passed to a snap-decision notification used for the "incoming call"-use-case.

I'll update the bug to affect the correct packages.

[Mirco Müller (macslow)]

For sake of completeness/correctness... the snap-decision notification triggered by telephony-service does not use more than two actions... accept and reject. Thus it does not make use of the additional ComboButton-feature of the notification-system.

What Olga is refering to, are the synthetic notification-system tests and examples used to exercise all the different use-cases the notification-system is currently designed to support.

is that fix related to addressing the "too easy to answer a call" UX issue

[Mirco Müller (macslow)]

Yes.
