About this title

Synopsis

This book/disk package begins by addressing the basic principles of user interface design, discusses the fundamentals of handling mouse and keyboard input, and covers the implementation of the "interactivity basics" - for example, selecting objects and navigating with the mouse and keyboard. The guide then covers, chapter-by-chapter, and in detail, the major elements of the Windows interface - windows, menus and dialog box controls. It concludes by covering several important and miscellaneous topics, including providing mechanisms for users to customize the interface, adding a system, and recognizing issues related to internationalizing an application. Specific features include: interactive design guide - a sample application that provides access to an online version of this book; visual design guide - descriptions, specifications and online illustrations of Windows design elements; buttons and cursors - a dynamic link library with standard cursor and toolbar button images, ready to use.
