Ah yes, this task fails hard at the xkcd.com/627/ tactic of "Find a menu item or button that looks related to what you want to do..." What do I want to do? "turn off my computer" What button do I press? "

Interesting how different people's brains work. I personally cannot mentally parse a month-based calendar - the distribution of weeks and weekends is far too variable. I print one of these in A3 every year [0] - easy to see at a glance

Calendarpedia offers loads of options which are great for printing. I always print an A3 "rolling" format for the current year, which I haven't seen anywhere else - lets you see all your weeks and weekends at a glance.

You can do "see only current branch" with the little filter icon when you hover next to a branch. Although I do find myself getting lost amongst branches more easily compared to Sourcetree, I think there's some difference in

There are commonly used terms for different types of empathy[1] which makes these conversations a lot easier. People often generalise, or misinterpret a lower level of one type of empathy for another - for example, some autistic individuals

Nice to see people getting interested in eye gaze. There are two things that you might like to look at that can help the UX. 1 - Calibration. Looking at static dots is BORING. The best idea I've seen is Tobii's gaming calibration

Thanks, that's it. I really like 'gradually walk the UI tree', though I'm struggling a bit with the thing I want being obscured by the label (and me not remembering what was there). An offset would be nice, though I&#x27

Yes! transforming the top level frame sounds like the way to go. I ran jwno with example-config and pressed RAlt and RAlt+K a few times, each time trying one of the onscreen shortcut keys (b, c, d, etc). Log at the bottom of this comment. A

This looks to have great potential for accessibility! I work with individuals who use eye gaze input, where a significant part of the screen is taken up by an on-screen keyboard (including various shortcut/macro keys as well as for typ

I maintain an open-source interface that lets kids with physical disabilities play Minecraft using eye control[1]. When I started working on it, I was already familiar with what Minecraft offers as 'virtual lego' in creative mode,

Do you have any recommendations for getting over the friction of starting? Like, suggestions of what to write about if you're unsure what's worth putting to paper. I'm sure I'd have plenty to write once I got started, bu

Agree on this. Also a bug report - I was getting bored of a story level and tried to find a shortcut to skip it or speed it up or something. Pressed a key (not sure which - was thinking about Esc/Tab/Enter type navigation at the t

You might also want to look at other apps that use the OpenBoardFormat: https://www.openboardformat.org/partners I contribute to Optikey and was involved in OpenVoiceFactory in its first incarnation. Optikey is primarily QW

Not the OP, but Dasher is a classic example that works very well for a single 2D input like using a joystick: https://youtu.be/0d6yIquOKQ0

Windows 10's Eye Control has something like this, called "Shape Writing". See the second GIF here: https://www.theverge.com/2017/8/2/16087368/microsoft-eye-con... Long before that, Optikey

This is really interesting and fun! One bit of UX feedback - I played about with children, cross breeding and editing genes and never figured out a mental model for what interactions caused a derivative image to be previewed vs being used t

Whatever you use, please remember not everyone has good vision / hearing / dextrous mouse control. Captchas can be a nightmare for accessibility. Most of the 'clever' solutions to this will completely block some subset o
