User-Interface

I think there are three, large-screen, small-screen and thumbnail.

Large Screen This is the Desktop/Laptop user, the screen has plenty of room to view the work and be surrounded by tool boxes. Major design work can be performed in this environment.
Small-screen This is the Netbook/Pad user, the whole screen is mainly given to the work, with a small menu/toolbar to a short side of the window. Minor amendments to the design can be performed in this environment.
Thumbnail This is the display on the machine. It requires a small colour image and the file-name to be displayed.

The preview-image allows file operations to be applied to the correct design, I hope some sort of service would allow a design to be copied to a (say) JEF folder to have the design converted on-the-fly.

Design of the User-Interface

Luke Wroblewski tells us [1] we need to consider:

  • Interaction Design
  • Visual Design
  • User Research
  • Copywriting (Copyright?)
  • Information Architecture
  • Conventions
  • Proximity
  • Muscle Memory
