Identifying the “Parts of a Window” is fundamental and transferable. Training our eye to “read” a window and identify the parts and use Cues and Clues, establishes visual control and reduces the “too much information” overload.
The parts of a window are structural elements that are generic and repetitive.
- Window “frame”: the container
- Title Bar: location title and window buttons
- Menu System: actions “commands”
- Address Bar: location and navigation
- Panes: navigation
