34. pretty + usability = acceptance + less training Icon & position conveys status and context faster than text. Use of color and layout helps users quickly identify areas of screen with different data types, function, and purpose. Controls use every day language not cryptic computer jargon such as filter, sort, or scroll. Designed to match the work and work flow, not function and data retrieval. Color, layout, and text used to quickly convey context (what am I looking at and how do I change the view?) . “FOR PICKUP” is not going to change the list of drivers at the bottom left. Contrast is used to help the user focus on the primary purpose of the screen. Layout reduces the number of “hard lines” ... which, in turn, reduces time to comprehension. Text is carefully aligned to improve reading comprehension (see time column)
