Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of optimization method of user interface, particularly relate to a kind of optimization method of high availability user interface.
Background technology
Current Graphics user interface is widely applied, main manifestations is for using WIMP (Windows, Icons, Menus, Pointing device) application object display is in the window one by one for mutual pattern, object can be selected even can be pulled between different windows, user sends order by menu or toolbar to program, operating result is visible, menu is self-evident for the importance of graphic user interface, a good menu effectively can improve the efficiency of user's service routine, and improves the satisfaction that user uses software.
Application number be 200780043834.9 invention propose and a kind ofly control graphical user interface element based on dynamically recording and change the method for behavior, by such as audio sensor, the sensor of video sensor and/or motion sensor provides the dynamically recording of transition information, by the transformation behavior of graphical user interface (GUI) element on the display that responds described dynamically recording to define the electronic equipment of such as mobile terminal, it achieve the problem that user interface robotization dynamically changes, the present invention needs to solve the availability issue improving user's manual operation menu, both are not identical.Application number be 201080032877.9 invention propose that a kind of method and apparatus enables mobile device based on user's past advise that user may interested applications available or feature with current mobile device using forestland to user.Described mobile device can monitor used application-specific/feature and frequency of utilization thereof.Described mobile device can determine based on the frequency of utilization of application program or feature and information other applications available/feature that described user may be interested in use, and described information makes for indicating user Another application program or the interested possibility of feature based on an application program or feature.Be confirmed as described user may interested application program or feature can be added to the form of the suggestion of user interface present to described user with make described user optionally connected by or the suggestion of the described menu of refusal amendment.Above-mentioned two existing patents have all paid close attention to availability during user's service routine menu, 200780043834.9 introduce an adaptive user interface implementation method, 201080032877.9 introduce the method that can start user's program interested fast, but they and unresolved active user uses the inefficient problem of menu.
Summary of the invention
Function due to various program increases and result in increasing of user interface item, current have numerous programs to have more menu item, user will therefrom find the menu item efficiency oneself will carrying out operating lower, the menu that object of the present invention solves the generation of existing user interface creating method just uses the lower problem of efficiency, improves the efficiency of user and system interaction.
For reaching above-mentioned purpose, the invention provides a kind of optimization method of user interface, comprising three steps: the use of step 1, acquisition user interface item is measured; Step 2, measure menu item classification according to the use of menu item; The characteristic attribute of step 3, change different stage menu item.Menu item has multiple attribute, the effective range of the numbering of such as menu item, position, font, background, shape, additional information and operation response, but only have part attribute to be suitable for menu optimizing process of the present invention, be referred to as characteristic attribute in the present invention, part attribute is not suitable for menu optimization of the present invention, is referred to as non-characteristic attribute in the present invention.The attributes such as numbering, position belong to non-characteristic attribute, it is because the change of numbering is not reflected in viewable portion that numbering attribute is not suitable for menu optimization, transparent to user, thus the efficiency of menu is used not affect on user, it is because but can not find when the change of position often causes user habit to go to origin-location to click menu that position attribution is not suitable for menu optimization, causes the reduction of efficiency on the contrary.The effective range of font, background, shape, additional information and operation response belongs to characteristic attribute, change these attributes in the methods of the invention and often improve the efficiency that user uses menu, as increased the font size in a menu item font attribute, user will be easier to find and click this menu item.
After method execution of step 3 of the present invention, also can re-execute step 1, namely described three steps form a circulation, make the menu of presenting to user use the change of tolerance with menu item and change.
In described step 1 use of user interface item measure can the history usage frequency of menu item is clicked at general family, user clicks different menu item time interval, user sets weights, expert assessment and evaluation result is determined.Here user can be unique user, also can be a large number of users.
Menu item can be divided into two-stage in described step 2, one-level is conventional menu item, and another level is the menu item that is of little use.
Menu item can be divided into three grades in described step 2, one-level is conventional menu item, and secondary is for being of little use menu item, and three grades can not use menu item for current.
Can be realized by the effective range of the font attribute of change menu item, background attribute, shape attribute, additional information and operation response in described step 3.Font attribute can be font weight, font style, font effects, font shading, font color.Background attribute can be background shading, background color, background patterns.Shape attribute can be shape size, shape color.Adeditive attribute can be for background text adds bracket, arrow.The effective range of operation response can be the normal response scope expanding menu item normal response scope or reduce menu item.
Method of the present invention can also comprise step a, provide the setting of recovery menu item customized configuration state for user.No matter be that program is automatically for user has adjusted the attribute of menu item or measuring of user's manual configuration menu item, and then after the attribute that have adjusted menu item, there is the situation needing to return to a certain customized configuration state, this particular state can be original state, the state in a certain moment, certain change after state or the state of certain user, as when changing user B into by user A, user B might not use the use of user A to measure the setting of the menu item after being optimized by habit hierarchy.The menu item optimal design-aside obtained when user completes category-A task is not necessarily suitable for situation when user performs category-B task, user can recover the menu item configuration adapting to category-A task before being about to perform category-A task, recovers the menu item configuration adapting to category-B task before being about to perform category-B task.
According to 80/20 rule, menu item can be divided into two-stage particularly in described step 2.The rule of 80/20 is thought: cause and effect, input and output, originally there is imbalance between effort and remuneration.Generally things can be divided into the type that two kinds different: most, they can only cause a little impact; Minority, they cause main, great impact.80/20 these data are only a metaphor and practical benchmark, and real ratio may not be just in time 8:2, and it shows that this relation is likely unbalanced as a rule, and close to 80/20.According to this principle, we can measure using the user interface item coming front 20% and be divided into first rank, and all the other menu items are divided into another rank.
Method of the present invention can also comprise step b before step 1, obtain login user information.After adding this step, specific user and measuring of menu item can be mapped, for different users can generate different menus, realize the customization of user interface.
Major advantage of the present invention is:
One, by carrying out different setup of attributes to different menu item, efficiency when user uses these menu items can be improved, also namely improve the availability of user interface.Such as, the font of word in conventional menu item is set to runic or expands the scope of this menu item operation response, user can be easier to find and perform these conventional menu items.In like manner, by being diminished by the font size of word in the menu item that is of little use, color is thin out, can reduce the interference of menu item to user that be of little use, and also can reach the effect of outstanding conventional menu item.
Two, adaptive user interface is realized.Adaptive user interface refer to one can the current use context of perception, based on context the user interface that change is continuously made a response, this change does not need the participation of user, such as, automatically change the display of user interface, content, navigation, even behavior according to the log-on message of user and operation note thereof.Program automatic acquisition metric can be adopted in step 1 of the present invention, namely complete when not needing user to participate in, so just, achieving the adaptivity of user interface, can improve by realizing adaptive user interface efficiency and the user satisfaction that user uses system.
