<!-- CB-Ed: The following paragraphs are VERY GOOD because they lay out terms and definitions for the reader clearly and unequivocally. -->

      <para>For most users, the mouse provides the main way of interacting with graphical user interfaces.  The term "mouse" is used in this chapter to include other pointing devices that can be used to move the pointer around the screen, such as trackballs, trackpads, spaceballs, graphics tablets, or assistive technology devices that emulate a mouse.</para>
	
      <para>For right-handed users, the left button on a conventional mouse is used for the majority of mouse actions. We therefore call it the <mousebutton>left button</mousebutton> here, even though that may not physically be the case.  For this reason, you may sometimes see this button referred to in code or documentation as "Button 1" or the "Selection Button".</para>

      <para>Similarly for right-handed users, the right button on a conventional mouse is used for operations involving pop-up menus. We therefore call it the <mousebutton>right button</mousebutton> in this chapter.  You may sometimes see this button referred to in code or documentation as "Button 3" or the "Menu Button".</para>

      <para>A conventional mouse with three buttons normally has its third button (or a scrollwheel that acts as a button when pushed) between the left and right buttons.  We therefore call it the <mousebutton>middle button</mousebutton>, but you may sometimes see this referred to in code or documentation as "Button 2" or the "Transfer Button".</para>

	<para>Do not over-ride this functionality in any part of your user interface where the transfer action is likely to be useful.  If you do intend to use the middle button for a different purpose somewhere, only do so as a shortcut for experienced users, and only for operations that can also be performed without using the <mousebutton>right button</mousebutton> or <mousebutton>middle button</mousebutton>.</para></listitem>

	<listitem><para>If present on the mouse, the scrollwheel should scroll the window or control under the pointer, if it supports scrolling. Initiating scrolling in this way should not move keyboard focus to the window or control being scrolled. <remark>If it supports both horizontal and vertical scrolling, perhaps suggest unmodified scrollwheel should scroll vertically, and <keycombo><keycap>Shift</keycap><mousebutton>scrollwheel</mousebutton></keycombo> should scroll horizontally.</remark></para></listitem>

Zooming in this way should not move keyboard focus to the window or control being zoomed.</para></listitem>

	<listitem><para>Do not depend on input from the middle or right mouse buttons. As well as being physically more difficult to click, some pointing devices and many assistive technology devices only support or emulate the left mouse button.  Some assistive technologies may not even emulate the mouse at all, but generate keyboard events instead.</para></listitem>

	<listitem><para>Ensure that every operation in your application that can be done with the mouse can also be done with the keyboard.  The only exceptions to this are actions where fine motor control is an essential part of the task. For example, controlling movement in some types of action games, or freehand painting in an image-editing application.</para></listitem>

	<listitem><para>Do not warp the mouse pointer, or restrict mouse movement to part of the screen. This can interfere with assistive technologies, and is usually confusing even for users who do not rely on assistive technologies.</para></listitem>

	<listitem><para>Allow all mouse operations to be cancelled before their completion. Pressing the Esc key should cancel any mouse operation in progress, such as dragging and dropping a file in a file manager, or drawing a shape in a drawing application.</para></listitem>

	<listitem><para>Do not assign any actions exclusively to the middle button of a three-button mouse, as not all mice have one.</para></listitem>

	<listitem><para>Do not hard-code mouse target sizes, or make them too small. Define any mouse targets to be at least as large as the arrow button in a GtkSpinBox in the current gtk theme. Bear in mind that a user with impaired dexterity or vision may be using a theme that results in considerably larger widgets than the default theme.</para></listitem>

	<listitem><para>Do not refer to particular mouse buttons in your interface unless absolutely necessary.  Not everybody will be using a conventional mouse with left, middle and right buttons, so any text or diagrams that refer to those may be confusing.</para></listitem>

	<para>A well-designed keyboard user interface plays a key role when you are designing applications. Many power-users prefer to perform most operations with the keyboard rather than the mouse. Visually-impaired users can navigate software more effectively using the keyboard, because using the mouse depends on visual feedback of the mouse pointer location. And mobility impairments can prevent a user from successfully navigating using the mouse, because of the fine motor control skills required.</para>
	
	<para>Make all mouse actions available from the keyboard, and include keyboard access to all toolbars, menus, links and buttons. Every function your application provides must be available using the keyboard alone. Hiding your mouse while you test your application is a great way to test this!</para>

	<para>Most functionality is easy to make available from the keyboard, by using access keys and shortcut keys, and the toolkit's built-in keyboard navigation features. All controls with labels should have access keys, and frequently-used menu items should be assigned shortcut keys. However, operations that rely on drag-and-drop, for example, may require more thought to make them keyboard accessible.</para>

For example, the MouseKeys feature in the GNOME <guilabel>Keyboard Accessibility</guilabel> preferences dialog allows mouse movement and button clicks to be simulated using the keypad.

	<title>Choosing Access Keys</title>

	<para>Give all labelled components an access key (underlined letter), with the exception of toolbar controls which would use up too many access key combinations.</para>

<!-- Consensus was against giving OK and Cancel additional access keys, but they have them anyway and Owen refuses to remove them...

	<note>
	  <title>For discussion</title>
	  <para>It's been suggested that even OK and Cancel should have access keys, as this is more obvious to newer users.  (KDE does this).  What do we think?  Advantages: means you do not always have to have an Enter-operated default button in dialogs where this might lead you to close the dialog by mistake.  Disadvantages: Adds an extra way for people to do things, potentially adding the "dither" factor; uses up O and C access keys, which could be awkward in larger/tabbed dialogs.</para>

	<para>Choose access keys to be as easy to remember as possible.  Normally, this means using the first letter of the label.  However, in complex windows, the choice can become more difficult.  Here are some simple rules:</para>

	<orderedlist>
	    <listitem><para>Assign access keys to the most frequently-used controls first.  If it's not clear which controls will be the most frequently used, assign access keys from left to right, top to bottom (for Western locales).</para></listitem>


	  <listitem><para>Use the first letter of the label, or of one of its other words if it has more than one.  If another letter provides a better association (e.g. "x" in <guilabel>Extra Large</guilabel>) however, consider using that letter instead.</para></listitem>

	  <listitem><para>If the first letter is not available, choose an easy to remember consonant from the label, for example, "p" in <guilabel>Replace</guilabel>.</para></listitem>
 
	  <listitem><para>If no such consonants are available, choose any available vowel from the label.</para></listitem>
	</orderedlist>

	   <para>If duplication of access keys in a window is unavoidable, you should still refrain from duplicating the access keys for any of these buttons that appear in the same window: <guibutton>OK</guibutton>, <guibutton>Cancel</guibutton>, <guibutton>Close</guibutton>, <guibutton>Apply</guibutton> or <guibutton>Help</guibutton>.</para>

	   <para>Also, it is better not to assign access keys to "thin" letters (such as lowercase i or l), or letters with descenders (such as lowercase g or y) unless it is unavoidable.  The underline does not show up very well on those characters in some fonts.</para>


	<para>Applications using a non-Roman writing system in conjunction with a standard keyboard can have control labels prefixed with Roman characters as access keys.</para>

	<title>Choosing Shortcut Keys</title>

	<para>The tables in <xref linkend="standard-shortcuts"/> summarize the standard shortcut keys to use when your application supports those functions.  Your application will not necessarily support all of these functions, see <xref linkend="menus-standard"/> for more information.  However, use the recommended shortcut keys for those functions you do support.</para> 

	<para>You will probably want to add your own shortcut keys for functions specific to your application.  If so, as well as following the guidelines below, look at any other existing similar applications to see which shortcut keys they have defined.  Your users may already be using those or similar applications, so being consistent where it is possible and sensible to do so will provide a better user experience for them when they begin to use yours.</para>

Do not assign them to unrelated functions just because you've run out of other shortcut key combinations, however.</para></listitem>

	  <listitem><para>Only assign shortcut keys to the most commonly-used actions in your application.  Do not try to assign a shortcut key to everything.</para></listitem>

	  <listitem><para>Choose new shortcut keys to be as mnemonic as possible, as these will be easier to learn and remember.

	<title>Keyboard Interaction with Panel Applications (Applets)</title>

	<para>Panels have been fully keyboard navigable since GNOME 2.0.  Since your panel application can gain keyboard focus, you must ensure that it is also keyboard navigable.</para>

	<para>The rules for panel application keyboard navigation are mostly the same as those for any other window.  However, there is one imporant difference:</para>

	<itemizedlist>
	  <listitem><para>Do <emphasis>not</emphasis> use the <keycap>Tab</keycap> key as the means of moving focus between controls in a panel application.  Use the arrow keys for this purpose instead.</para></listitem>
	</itemizedlist>

	<para>When an object on a panel has focus, the <keycap>Tab</keycap> key normally moves focus to the next object on the panel.  If your panel application also used <keycap>Tab</keycap> for its own internal navigation, the user would have to press <keycombo><keycap>Ctrl</keycap><keycap>Tab</keycap></keycombo> to move focus out of your panel application instead.  This inconsistency would be detrimental to the user experience.</para>
