Kactus2 user experience design principles

We want that Kactus2 gives the best user experience for an EDA tool. This is how we will do it:

It is human friendly

• Use context to help user to never get lost
• Do not show every possible choises at once but only the frequently used first
• Context sensitive ribbon, editors, designers, library views and filtering
• Switching between mission specific workspaces

It is wrist friendly
All actions with minimum mouse/touch clicks
No deep and complex menus
Multitouch screen support
Column-wise layout that extends vertically

It is brain friendly
Hide IP-XACT internal structure from user
Hide IP-XACT internal terms (as much as we can, but not changing purpose)
* Reason and auto fill multiple IP-XACT elements from single user input
