Crossing-based interface
open-in-new
<p>Crossing-based interfaces are <a href="/facts/Graphical_user_interface/wBlQFWDP">graphical user interfaces</a> that use crossing gestures instead of, or in complement to, <a href="/facts/Point-and-click/YvGz3Bah">pointing</a>. Where a pointing task involves moving a cursor inside a graphical object and pressing a button, a goal-crossing task involves moving a cursor beyond a boundary of a targeted graphical object to trigger an effect. </p>
