Power tools and composite tools: integrating automation with direct manipulation
This paper describes a drawing system that incorporates two novel interaction techniques based on analogies to physical tools. Power tools add limited autonomy in the form of rotators and movers for automated circular, linear, and Bezier-curve movement. Composite tools are user-constructed combinations of existing tools to create new functionality. Categories and Subject Descriptors H.5.2 [Information Interfaces and Presentation]: User Interfaces General Terms Human Factors. Keywords Drawing environments, tools.
