The particularly tricky part I'm concerned about is the 3rd section shown in blue outline below.
That section needs to be able to swipe left and right, populating a grid for each swipe (left/right).
Can I put a GridView inside a ScrollView inside a GridView cell?
Can I expect decent performance?
Hi David,
Sure you can do that. We actually nest grid Viiews throughout the samples browser.
I even wrote a blog post that does this : http://ko.infragistics.com/community/blogs/stevez/archive/2012/11/13/creating-a-netflix-style-ios-grid.aspx
One thing i would change is to use another GridView in place of your scrollView. The reason i suggest this, is that way the nested grids are virtualized. If you use a scrollView, then all of those grids will get loaded at once.

Hmmm, that's interesting. Good point.
So that makes me wonder, is it possible to have the "Doohickeys" in a GridView that acts like a flipboard.. which would still give a cool animated effect, but without the scrolling aspect?
Can you flip through a hundred items just as performant as ten items?
I'm assuming the recycling is taking place behind the scenes.
