Good program for you.

By: Alex Vince

1. Colors.
Avoid programming interface which is made of bright, saturated colors. This design is well only in the promotional products and games. In daily work with the program your eyes withstand short. Vivid colors are permitted only in the communications failures and other important, but rare events, which the user must draw attention. These messages should disappear from the screen or change the colour of the normal once you confirmed that saw them (click Ok). Note that the standard colors windowing GUI Windows, MS Office placed well, it can be used as a model when assessing applications.

2. The amount of information on the screen.
The screen should not be overloaded. Must attend required for ongoing information. Many programmers, even experienced, passionate about creating screen savers, all beautiful, but useful images, each placed in the form of visual information support. Not to miss this "superservis." Extra "Beauty" on the screen, the abundance of supporting data hampered the perception of information, you will be distracted by the picture, you need to look long data-analysis, increased fatigue, reduced performance.

3. Applied fonts and icons.
Font size should be such that you read easily without stretching sight, and not too long, so we do not have load zkran after each paragraph. "Beautiful" fonts with every twirl ( "hand", "Gothic "...) divert impair perception and appropriate only in the advertisement, congratulations, etc. Bold type, italics can be allocated only important places. Well, if the software is able to customize font and size. Pictograms should MJP and understandable at a glance, so we do not have to wonder, "what happens if you press the button" and constantly refer to the documentation.

4. Sound accompaniment.
There are also frequent "beautiful excesses." Sound is needed in training programs (spoken text accompanying the photo, the sounds of the demonstration, for example, chemical experiments, etc. well help absorb material) in the game, spectacular marketing and presentation materials, but in the "normal" type of program accounting or stock accounting, text and image editors, databases, it detracts from the case, prevents focus leads to a rapid fatigue. If your chosen program accompanied by the sound of each click, every move to another window, each appearance on the screen, a new form-cancel this program. After three days of work with it, you will be ready to pick up hammer and razdolbit computer. Sounds in the program allowed (but not required) only error messages and other important, but rare events, which the user must draw attention. This sounds to be quiet, short and pleasant listening, even if they escorted a protest message.
