A 3D-metaphor explains the handling of a 3D-operation with a two dimensional input device. Current developments emphasize new input devices with higher degrees of freedom for interaction with three-dimensional graphics application. virtual-sphere-metaphor = ( parallel { turntable-angle-metaphor, turntable-axis-metaphor }, variants = ( ...

The current study examined the readability of GUI's using four levels of textured backgrounds (plain, small, medium, large), two levels of saturation (dark, light), and three colours (blue, grey, yellow). Participants (N=34) found target words ("square", "circle", "triangle") embedded in the text excerpts (black text) that were placed on top of the textured backgrounds. In general, the plain backgrounds led to faster search times than did the medium-textured backgrounds, and the blue ...

Since Felker, Pickering, Charrow, Holland, and Redish published the first Guidelines for Document Designers in 1981, the guidelines revolutionized and focused technical communicators on producing functional, readable documents. Although document design is intended to focus the efforts of communicators on helping readers achieve their goals, in practice, the appearance of pages and screens, and the editorial quality of the writing predominate. Consider informal comments by many technical ...

The study suggests that a behavioral framework that relates motivations (Aguilar) and moves (Ellis) may be helpful in analysing patterns of Web-based information seeking. Section 3 integrates elements from research in information seeking and organizational scanning into a behavioral model of Web-based information seeking. The figure below identifies four main modes of information seeking on the Web: undirected viewing, conditioned viewing, informal search, and formal search.

Posted 2 Feb 2001 by maphew The computer User Interface is something I spend a lot of time thinking about, and even more time cussing and fretting widely used. Shortcut keys for all commands, wherever possible and it makes sense. To assign a new keyboard shortcut to a command, open the menu as you normally would, select but don't activate the command, press the desired key, and voila!

Graphical user interfaces (GUIs) have become the user interface of choice. GUI designers' predilection for control is evident in applications that continually attempt to control user navigation by graying and blackening menu items or controls within an application. The Dispatch button invokes a modal dialog box instead of a modeless child window.

There is a wonderful book called A Pattern Language. This site is about experiences with that pattern language. Some people, while thinking about what makes web sites and pages good, have looked at this book and begun to wonder what a pattern language for the web might be like.

User Interface Design for Programmers 3 Posted by Joel Spolsky, 4/12/00 at 9:59:49 PM. Chapter 3: Choices When you go into a restaurant and you see a sign that says "No Dogs Allowed," you might think that sign is purely proscriptive: Mr. Restaurant doesn't like dogs around, so when he built the restaurant he put up that sign. Pull up the Tools Options dialog box and you will see a history of arguments that the software designers had about the design of the product.

Jolon Faichney: What makes user interfaces awful is that Apple and Microsoft aren't prepared to take them seriously and to develop user interfaces that are very good. Thus, it is up to the application designers to figure out the higher level semantics of their application and then come up with a way to implement those semantics. Adobe developed a UI for Photoshop, initially on the Mac, that made heavy use of tabbed palettes to control their extremely feature rich application.

Alben and her colleagues developed a set of criteria for assessing quality of user experience in order to judge entries in the first ACM/interactions Design Awards. The jury was interested in how effective interaction design could provide people with sucessful and satisfying experiences. The criteria fall into two categories: those that directly impact user experience (e.g., learnable and usable), and those that make their contribution indirectly (e.g., understanding of users and effective ...

A 60-item questionnaire for evaluating the users’ satisfaction of a web site was developed following a factor model used with success for conventional software evaluation. The results indicate that visitors reported higher satisfaction for the web sites which had some explicit HCI involvement in their development. The authors have developed a similar questionnaire for the evaluation of user satisfaction with web sites.
