论文摘要
基于触摸的设备尽管有主流的可用性，但仍不支持每个平台和应用程序都可以使用统一，高效的命令选择机制。我们提倡，即使是无键盘应用程序，也可以将Hotkeys通常用作台式计算机上的快捷机制作为命令选择机制。在本文中，我们通过两项研究比较了坐着，站立和步行条件的不同输入方法的两项研究，研究了软键盘快捷键或热键的性能和使用。我们的结果表明，软件不仅受到参与者的赞赏，而且还支持使用不同设备和手动配置的快速命令选择。我们还没有找到证据表明，使用曾经输入方法时行走会阻止其性能。
Touch-based devices, despite their mainstream availability, do not support a unified and efficient command selection mechanism, available on every platform and application. We advocate that hotkeys, conventionally used as a shortcut mechanism on desktop computers, could be generalized as a command selection mechanism for touch-based devices, even for keyboard-less applications. In this paper, we investigate the performance and usage of soft keyboard shortcuts or hotkeys (abbreviated SoftCuts) through two studies comparing different input methods across sitting, standing and walking conditions. Our results suggest that SoftCuts not only are appreciated by participants but also support rapid command selection with different devices and hand configurations. We also did not find evidence that walking deters their performance when using the Once input method.
