Selection Strategies for Small Targets and the Smallest Maximum Target Size on Pen-Based Systems
Summary :
An experiment is reported comparing six pen input strategies for selecting a small target using five diffenent sized targets (1, 3, 5, 7 and 9 dot diameter circles respectively, 0. 36 mm per dot). The results showed that the best strategy, in terms of error rate, selection time and subjective preferences, was the "land-on2" strategy where the target is selected when the pen-tip touches the target for the first time after landing on the screen surface. Moreover, "the smallest maximum size" was determined to be 5 dots (1. 8 mm). This was the largest size among the targets which had a significant main effect on error rate in the six strategies. These results are important for both researchers and designers of pen-based systems.
