Bug Description

As an Ubuntu phone user
I want to switch between the clock and the stopwatch screen using a swipe gesture (e.g. on the center of the screen)
so that I don't need to locate and press the (rather tiny) icon "tabs" on top of the screen.

If there is a countdown screen one day this should also allow me to switch to the third screen, of course.

-------- Implementation Issue (Technical) ------------

Description of the problem:
The whole stopwatch and clock is placed inside a horizontal listview.
If you enable scrolling there, then when you try to swipe delete a world ity, it will swipe to the stopwatch page instead.
So the world city swipe event is being stolen by the navigation listview.

According to UX team, the swipe should switch between clock/stoppwatch/countdown.

Unfortunately we faced some issues during implementation.
We will check again possible solution for that issue.

Just to make sure we're all on the same page: OTA-10.1 still has not fixed this. (You must tap one of the "tab" icons on top of the screen to switch between the screens/views.)

Unfortunately we are unable to overcome the technical limitation as described in the bug description. It is conflicting with the listview swipe gesture.

Also if it was fixed and released, we will mark the status of the bug accordingly.

I've Implemented the fix as Specified by the in the bug (simply enabling the interactive flag in the listview) and at least on the desktop and in the emulator it seems to work without any problems you can delete cities without any problem.
The only issue I noticed is that you can't swipe the pages when flicking on the cities but i think this is an expected behaviour.

Should i push the fix?
