文档中呈现的信息通常由主要内容以及支持材料组成,例如解释性注释、详细推导、插图等。我们引入了一类用于流体文档的用户界面技术,支持读者转向支持材料,同时保持主要材料的上下文。我们的方法最初通过将支持材料呈现为靠近带注释的主要材料的小视觉提示来最大程度地减少支持材料的侵入。当用户表达对注释的兴趣时,它会平滑地扩展到可读的大小。同时,主要材料为扩展注释腾出了空间。必须为膨胀的支撑材料提供占据的空间,并且相对于周围的主要材料必须使其突出。空间和显着性这两个方面取决于主要材料和支持材料之间的协商。本文介绍了我们的流体文档技术的组成部分,并描述了确保主要材料和支持材料的演示得到尊重的谈判架构。
The information presented in a document often consists of primary content as well as supporting material such as explanatory notes, detailed derivations, illustrations, and the like. We introduce a class of user interface techniques for fluid documents that supports the reader’s shift to supporting material while maintaining the context of the primary material. Our approach initially minimizes the intrusion of supporting material by presenting it as a small visual cue near the annotated primary material. When the user expresses interest in the annotation, it expands smoothly to a readable size. At the same time, the primary material makes space for the expanded annotation. The expanded supporting material must be given space to occupy, and it must be made salient with respect to the surrounding primary material. These two aspects, space and salience, are subject to a negotiation between the primary and supporting material. This paper presents the components of our fluid document techniques and describes the negotiation architecture for ensuring that the presentations of both primary and supporting material are honored.
