I have a ListView. I let the user perform some action on a long-click
(pop up a picker dialog with a few choices) on row items.
Is there any typical UI mechanism that should be used to let the user
know that they can long-click a row item? Right now I feel like users
would have no idea to long-click the rows for a list of choices.
I'm not aware of any hints for this.
IMHO, long-click should be a power user thing. Make sure anything that
can be done by that mechanism can be done by some other means that is
more discoverable.
For example, in the Contacts app, you can long-tap to delete a contact,
but you can also tap on the contact, bring up the contact details
activity, and do a delete from the option menu. The option menu is a bit
more discoverable because there's a button for it.
