Edition synchrone de plusieurs objets: services et interaction

Abstract

Graphical interactions that modify many objects at once have not been studied systematically. Based on contextual inquiries of designers, and on previous systems and work, we have identified the services required for an efficient interaction with multiple objects: set management, action management, and support for exploratory design. We present a number of interactions that provide a subset of the identified services, by relying on an improved property sheet. This work may enable designers to design more consistent and more powerful interactions.
