In that cooper book 'about face' their is a section that recommends
something along the lines of printing the UI out dipping your fingers
in ink and touching the interactive elements to see if the button size
accomodates finger tips..
I just installed windows7...

Hi!
I have been working on a "All in one touchscreen PC" , something
similar
to HP Touch smart PC
on windows 7 platform and it supports multitouch.
I have some queries and would like to get your suggestions for the
same.
1) How was your experience with HP Touch smart PC? Any specific pain
point
or moment of delight experienced , with respect to navigation?
2) Is there any guideline for the font and button size for
touchscreen PC
application?
3) Would you prefer to have two or more views for browsing media
files
(music albums, videos ) and photos ?
Currently, in most of the PC applications we get to see arc view and
grid
view or random placement and grid view for browsing files.
4) Since it is multi touch application, can we eliminate zoom
icons/indication/buttons? Also right or left scroll arrows?
Or should we retain them but represent them in a more subtle manner?
5) Is it okay if all the main menu items are not shown at any single
instance on the home page
( but an indication, that the main menu can be scrolled to access
other main
menu items)?
6) We have placed the recycle bin to the bottom left hand corner.
User needs
to drag and drop the items to the recycle bin in order to delete.
Would you prefer a change in position (considering drag and
drop) , like
top left hand (like in windows 7)?
7) Is it necessary to have mute off/on button visible on the screen
at all
times?
Please feel free to answer as many queries as you can.
Thanks and regards,
preeti saluja
