<chapter id="gui-1"> 
  <title>Writing for GUIs</title> 
  <para> This chapter provides guidelines about how to document graphical user
	 interfaces (GUIs) in the GNOME Desktop. </para> 
  <sect1> 
	 <title>GUI Basics</title> 
	 <para> A <firstterm>graphical user interface</firstterm> (<acronym>GUI</acronym>) provides the user with an intuitive way of
		interacting with a computer and computer applications. The main purpose of a
		GUI is to make the activities involved in doing a task simple and quick. GUIs
		include elements that users use to work with applications, and elements that
		display information to the users. </para> 
	 <para> GNOME documentation must cater for the following GNOME GUIs: 
		<itemizedlist> 
		  <listitem> 
			 <para> GNOME Desktop GUI </para> 
		  </listitem> 
		  <listitem> 
			 <para> Application GUIs </para> 
		  </listitem> 
		  <listitem> 
			 <para> Applet GUIs </para> 
		  </listitem> 
		</itemizedlist> </para> 
	 <para> The GNOME Desktop GUI includes the following elements: </para> 
	 <itemizedlist> 
		<listitem> 
		  <para> Buttons </para> 
		</listitem> 
		<listitem> 
		  <para> Desktop</para> 
		</listitem> 
		<listitem> 
		  <para> Dialogs</para> 
		</listitem> 
		<listitem> 
		  <para> Menus</para> 
		</listitem> 
		<listitem> 
		  <para> Panels</para> 
		</listitem> 
		<listitem> 
		  <para> Windows</para> 
		</listitem> 
	 </itemizedlist> 
  </sect1> 
  <sect1 id="gui-2"> 
	 <title>Writing About GNOME Desktop GUIs</title> 
	 <para> When you write about GNOME Desktop GUIs, observe the following guidelines:
		</para> 
	 <itemizedlist> 
		<listitem> 
		  <para> Provide only the essential details or information that the user
			 needs to know to accomplish a task. </para> 
		</listitem> 
		<listitem> 
		  <para> Refer to windows and dialogs by the title of the window or
			 dialog. Refer to menus by the title of the menu, or by the name specified for
			 the menu in <xref linkend="menu-terminology"/>. </para> 
		  <para> Avoid repeated use of the same name when the meaning is clear.
			 For example: you instruct the reader to choose 
			 <menuchoice> 
				<guimenu>File</guimenu> 
				<guimenuitem>Print</guimenuitem> 
			 </menuchoice>, with the expected result that the 
			 <guilabel>Print</guilabel> window is displayed. In this case, you do
			 not need to repeat "in the 
			 <guilabel>Print</guilabel> window", if there is no ambiguity about
			 which window you want the user to work in. </para> 
		</listitem> 
		<listitem> 
		  <para> Write the names of dialog elements and menu commands as they
			 appear in the GUI. If the name includes a colon or an ellipsis, do not include
			 that punctuation when you refer to the item in your documentation. </para> 
		</listitem> 
		<listitem> 
		  <para> Mention certain technical GUI distinctions only when necessary.
			 For example, mention that a menu is a popup menu only if that information is
			 relevant to the task that the documentation describes. </para> 
		</listitem> 
	 </itemizedlist> 
	 <para> When writing about the GUI, reserve certain verbs for specific
		activities. For a list of the verbs to use when writing about the GUI, see
		<xref linkend="gnome-glossary-user-actions"/>. </para> 
	 <para> When you write about the mouse, note the following: </para> 
	 <itemizedlist> 
		<listitem> 
		  <para> Refer to the buttons on the mouse as <emphasis>mouse
			 buttons</emphasis> to avoid confusion with buttons in dialogs. </para> 
		</listitem> 
		<listitem> 
		  <para> Refer to the indicator that shows where the mouse action occurs
			 as the <emphasis>pointer</emphasis> or <emphasis>mouse pointer</emphasis>.
			 Write about the pointer to keep the user focused on the screen. For example,
			 describe moving the pointer, not moving the mouse.</para> 
		</listitem> 
		<listitem> 
		  <para> The plural for <emphasis>mouse</emphasis> is <emphasis>mouse
			 devices</emphasis>. </para> 
		</listitem>
