  • The Apple II Human Interface Tools
    APPLE II HUMAN INTERFACE TOOLS A good human interface is vital to your software product's success. Top-selling applications packages are those that are simple to learn, easy to remember, consistent, and efficient, as well as reliable and accurate. Apple Computer has developed guidelines and a number of human interfac~ tools for applications software development, reflecting years of collective human/computer research. We offer the Apple II human interface tool kits summarized here for inclusion in your new or updated Apple II software products. Potential benefits include "friendly" user interaction, reduced development time/costs, improved product reliability, and easier Apple II/Macintosh software portability. Apple II Human Interface Models Because no single style of interface is appropriate for every application, we support two approaches to human interface design for the Apple II. These are the "Filecard" and "Desktop" paradigms. Filecard Interface The Filecard interface was first used by Apple II's Appleworks (see accompanying example). Overlaying filecards on the screen visually represent the different menu levels with the paths available to the user. Options or activities are arranged in a hierarchy. Functions are performed in a specific order. We recommend the Filecard interface for applications where. the program must exercise restraint and guidance over the user's activities. It is also a good choice for upgrading your existing, menu-driven software: It offers the visibility of modern software design without requiring.major restructuring. Desktop Interface The more flexible, relational Desktop interface follows Macintosh design principles and calling conventions. The Apple II screen represents a desktop, with multiple screen windows .representing different "documents" on the desktop.
