Should this name be more consistent with the others? e.g.
kBrowserActionGrippyWillDragNotification?

[Robert Sesek, 2014/10/29 21:21:33]

Yes, I'd recommend that.

[Malcolm, 2014/10/30 10:08:05]

I will change the naming.

This can be simplified to @{ kTranslationWithDelta : @(dx) }

[Malcolm, 2014/10/30 10:08:05]

Absolutely!
