Holehan’s UI Reviews

Use the data collected from the survey to optimize choice of toolbar entries. Specifically reconsider:

  • “Open (recent)” - remove?
  • “Back/Forward” - reconsider position, remove?
  • “Next/Previous Page” - better put this into the toolbar? These are verry commonly used actions. The icon survey showed that several participants mistake the back/forward buttons for the previous/next page ones
  • “zoom in/out”
  • “zoom combo” - when collapsed only show values in %; when expanded, also offer “fit page/width” in drop down. after “fit page/width” are selected, show the respecting zoom levels in % in the combo. this will keep the zoom combo always in the same width.
  • “fit page/width” - remove if the above zoom combo comes true.
  • “Tools”

Proposal for documents:

[Previous/Next Page] [Zoom Combo][Zoom out/in] [Tools]
