Paper Abstract:
|
Many efforts have been dedicated to solve the problem of handling large scale workspaces. Numerous techniques has
been designed, most of them have lots of specific implementations. Also, there exist some generic implementations that
support the development of interfaces using these techniques. The focus+context family lacks of this kind of generic
solutions. In this paper we describe a focus+context technique called R-Zoom and its generalization. From this
experience we propose a generalization framework that could help to design generalizations for other focus+context
techniques. This framework is based on the independence from the individual nature of the elements and the
parameterization of the layout and manipulation features. |
