8 User Studies I ran in 1973 The main subject was our secretary Blank screen study findings included: She wanted and expected WYSIWYG To delete [imaginary] text she would run her finger across it on the screen and press a Delete key (verb after object) Studies of RCG (an NLS subset) Syntax was verb before object
9 NLS and RCG delete syntax verb noun mark OK Delete Character Word Statement Text (2 marks)
10 NLS and RCG editing syntax verb noun mark OK Delete Move Insert Replace Character Word Statement Text (2 marks) mark
11 RCG user study Aug 1973
12 Conclusions that endured Character keys type characters, not commands The intuitive use of a mouse is to point at things, not to accept and delete commands There is a cursor displayed showing where the next character typed will appear There are two ways to move the cursor: keystrokes and mouse pointing
13 Conclusions we abandoned There are no invisible characters; carriage return is a command, not a character Space bar and carriage return should do what they do on typewriters Keys that don t exist on typewriters do nothing until the user has learned them The mouse is taught late; its best aspects are emphasized to make a positive impression

17 Objections to cut & paste 1. Unfamiliar metaphor (in the 60s and 70s) 2. User mistakes (e.g., forgot to paste) 3. Speed compared to NLS 4. Extensibility to other applications
18 Advantages of cut & paste 1. Fewer errors because there can t be any mode errors.
19 Advantages of cut & paste 1. Fewer errors because there can t be any mode errors. 2. Speed. Roberts and Moran (1983) showed that experienced Gypsy users, on average, performed tasks in two-thirds the time of NLS. Fewer key presses were required.

21 Advantages of cut & paste 1. Fewer errors because there can t be any mode errors. 2. Speed. Roberts and Moran (1983) showed that experienced Gypsy users, on average, performed tasks in two-thirds the time of NLS. Fewer key presses were required. 3. Modeless. The ability to do other things between cut and paste entails more benefits than risks.
22 What is a mode? A mode is a state of the user interface that lasts for a period of time, is not associated with any particular object, and has no role other than to place an interpretation on operator input.
23 Prefix vs. suffix syntax in editors Prefix Syntax <verb> <object> After the verb, the editor must enter a mode to wait for the user to specify the object. Suffix Syntax <object> <verb> After the verb, the editor can perform the command immediately. No mode is needed.
24 How modes degrade usability! Keeping track of mode changes can distract a user from the task at hand. If the current mode is misjudged, unintended and sometimes disastrous results ensue. Users often get stuck in a mode and ask, How do I get out of this mode?

34 One button subset Novices used only the top button Single click selected between characters ^ Click & drag selected a character range range Marginal click & drag selected paragraphs Typing, cut and paste were about like today Look-b/i/u did bold/italic/underline
35 Middle & bottom buttons For power users Single click selected one character Marginal click selected one paragraph Double click [and drag] selected word[s] Otherwise, same as the top button But they differed from each other...
36 Source and Target For power users Top or middle button selected the target Bottom button selected the source Anything cut also became the source Paste copied the source to the target Cut+Paste transposed source and target

45 Gypsy s Modeless Text Editing Pattern Click to select an insertion point Double click to select a word Click and drag to select a passage Type to replace the selection by new text Cut to move the selection to a buffer Paste to replace the selection by the buffer Control-B to bold the selection, etc. Undo to undo the most recent command Edit a search query as you edit any text
46 Summary Qualitative and quantitative user studies showed that a two-step Cut and Paste enabled faster editing and fewer errors. Those studies and subsequent mass market adoption validated the usability advantages of the modeless text editing pattern.
