2.5.1 Pointer Gestures

포인터 제스처

Summary

Multipoint or path-based gestures need a simple single-pointer alternative. Users with tremor, users who can operate only one finger, and head-pointer users cannot perform them. Pairing pinch-zoom or swipe with buttons resolves it.

Common failures

  • Offering map zoom only through a pinch gesture, with no zoom buttons.
  • A carousel navigable only by swipe, with no previous and next controls.
