UserSignifiedAction |
A UserSignifiedAction is an action signified by physical action taken by a ComputerUser in interacting with a ComputerProcess -- scrolling, selecting a link, moving a cursor, ... -- not physical action itself (clicking a button, moving a mouse, touching a screen, ...). Often several different types UserDirectAction (q.v.) could signify the same UserSignifiedAction.

| Children |
BringingGEToFront | A UserSignifiedAction causing an GUIElement to be logically brought to the front -- of its window if it is an element in a window, and of a ComputerScreen if it is an InterfaceWindow. |
| | ClosingGraphicalWindow | A UserSignifiedAction causing an InterfaceWindow on a ComputerScreen to stop being displayed. |
| | CoveringGUIElement | A UserSignifiedAction causing a GUIElement to be covered completely on a ComputerScreen by at least one other GUIElement. |
| | Highlighting | A UserSignifiedAction causing a program to highlight a piece of text, link, image, or other component visible on the screen. |
| | JumpingToActivateUIElement | A UserSignifiedAction causing the cursor to ``jump'' from its current position to a UIElement, making it ``Active''. |
| | MaximizingGraphicalWindow | A UserSignifiedAction causing an InterfaceWindow to be expanded to cover the complete area of a ComputerScreen -- or possibly the complete vertical range of the screen if the window has a maximum width less than the screen-width. If the window being maximized is logically in front of any other window (which would normally be the case), this would also be a case of CoveringGraphicalWindow. |
| | MinimizingGraphicalWindow | A UserSignifiedAction causing an InterfaceWindow on a ComputerScreen to stop being displayed but to still conceptually exist. |
| | MovingCursor | The UserSignifiedGraphicalAction is accomplished by a ComputerUser taking a UserDirectAction that is interpreted as signifying that a cursor should be moved. Depending upon program state this could be accomplished by UserDirectActions of MouseMoving, a TouchSurfaceSlide, JoystickMotion, ScrollWheelRotating, KeyboardAction, repeated %&Clicking, or AudioInput. |
| | OpeningGraphicalWindow | A UserSignifiedAction causing the display of an InterfaceWindow on a ComputerScreen. |
| | PartiallyCoveringGraphicalWindow | A UserSignifiedAction causing a GUIElement to be partially covered on a ComputerScreen by at least one other GUIElement. |
| | ResizingScreenObject | A UserSignifiedAction causing a program to change the size of a display on the ComputerScreen. |
| | UncoveringGUIElement | A UserSignifiedAction causing a covered GUIElement to be completely uncovered on a ComputerScreen. |
| | UnmaximizingGraphicalWindow | A UserSignifiedAction causing an InterfaceWindow to be reduced from covering the complete area of a ComputerScreen to the size and location it had before being maximized. If it was created as maximized, unmaximizing it will shrink it to a default size and location. |
| | WindowScrollingByUser | WindowScrollingByUser consists of moving the contents of a frame in a window (when the logical size of the contents is greater than that of the frame) without moving the window itself. |
