What's in the Interaction Design Guide?
This Interaction Design Guide presents guidelines for finger-operated touchscreen applications. It is a collection of guidelines drawn from the literature, from the web, and from own experiences in the design of applications using finger-operated touchscreens.
Note: These guidelines do not cover pen-operated touchscreens as typically used in handheld computers and palmtops.
Status
This guide is not an official SAP document. It is provided on an "as is" basis, and is based on the personal work of the author.
Currently, these guidelines are in an experimental status. They are offered in order to fill a gap in the SAP guidelines. They also do not adhere to any visual guidelines issued by SAP (currently SAP does not offer visual guidelines for touchscreen devices).
Note: There will probably be no further maintenance for these guidelines.
