Simplify the complicated pilot design

 

Piloting design is one of the main jobs in structure layer design. The quality of piloting design has a direct bearing on whether the users can use it fluently. So, how to simplify the complicated piloting system is a problem that we must face. One solution is to provide fast access to the position, the second one providing collection clipping and the third being looking for solutions from the perspective of pilot interaction.

1. To provide subsidiary piloting.

 

The fast access on SAP provides access to mature users, because SAP is very complicated enterprise management software including financial administration, personnel management and production management. Fast access, no doubt, renders convenience.

Electronic city web is comparatively complicated. If you want find a certain item, it takes much time. But if you use the searching tool, it is much more convenient.

2. Organization mode will also provide solutions. Vista system breaks the stereotype by offering the paths strips.

 

 

3. Fisheye menu gives another solution. See the example:

The rolling of the strip or the turning of the pages wastes much time. But now Fisheye renders a convenient and fast way for people to find the information.

 

 

The click of the mouse signals the large scale piloting, while the triangle is the micro-regulation tool. The users need no more to drag that difficult rolling strip.

 

 

Imagine that you are designing a search mode for your electric dictionary, what will you do?

4. Summary: the finiteness of people’s perception and the piloting design

Humans’ perception is limited, so we should be careful to design the piloting system so as to make it crystal clear for the users to use.

Yes, the design should be user friendly. The design of piloting system should be in conformity with the perception of the users.
