- Abstract
- This paper presents MenuErgo, a software environment for designing a menu bar along with its pull-down menus and sub-menus of a graphical user interface by automatic evaluation of menu usability guidelines according to four evaluation strategies: an active strategy initiated by the system, a passive strategy initiated by the designer, a mixed strategy shared by both of them, and a strategy by conceptual units based on the semantic domain. The MenuErgo software architecture consists of an evaluation trigerrer, an evaluation engine, a presenter, and a knowledge base of 58 usability guidelines whose evaluation is automated. A qualitative exploratory study reports on the reactions of nine designers after their usage of MenuErgo on a case study for designing menus for a multimedia application.
