Do you also claim to be a user interface expert and write articles about it?
This technique is pervasive throughout Android. You should try long pressing on every UI element - especially the home button and the home screen - to see all the different actions you can do.
- Tichy 16y agoThe point is not "can a user interface understand this menu", the point is "can an average user understand this interface". I agree that once the different behavior emerges, it might not be that hard to find the source. But I am not sure - the keyboard never appeared for me because I never pressed the menu button for a longer time. Now I tried it and it worked, but I already knew why because of the article. In the other hand, I use my iPod Touch only very rarely. I think there is supposed to be some kind of tap bar (I know this from reading about PhoneGap), and I managed to bring up a menu once in a game I have installed by tapping around on the screen wildly. I was unable to bring it up a second time, so no, it is not always easy to identify the source of some activity.
