On click/tap, the icon shall change to the “selected” state (shown above in white) and present the Notifications pane. This will show the las 5 notifications received, allowing the user to view each notification by clicking on it, without opening the Notifications page.
If the “Mark all as read” label is clicked/tapped, the pane is to mark all notifications as read (all, not only the ones seen in it).
On click/tap of the “View all notifications” button, the system shall open the Notifications page.
