Guideline summary

 

Avoiding slips by design

  In a resilience-oriented design we avoid redundant features and controls that are slip-prone.

Reduce shortcut keys

Guideline  Provide shortcut keys only to activate selected features: those used most frequently.

Slip-proof sliding selectors

Guideline  Slips can also be prevented by slowing down the actions, enabling more control of the human operator. The protection concept is to break the motion to small segments, and to enforce delay between segment.
