SCREEN NAVIGATION
A touch screen is the primary means to interface with the software. On
screen navigation is accomplished by pressing the screen with a finger tip
through the use of buttons, scroll bars, and selectable options and windows.
There are two main sequences of movements used to navigate to menus
and system applications:
– Press and Release
– Press, Slide, and Release
PRESS AND RELEASE
This is the most common movement and is primarily used for pressing
buttons and selecting menus. This movement involves applying finger press
on the touchscreen and then lifting the finger off the screen to complete the
object interaction.
PRESS, SLIDE, AND RELEASE
This movement is used for expanding mini-views of applications and for
scrolling up and down menus using a scroll bar. This movement is
accomplished by pressing the finger on the application window or scroll bar
and sliding the finger with constant pressure across the screen without
lifting to the desired end point. Lifting the finger in the middle of sliding ends
the interaction.
