ABSTRACT
Pen gesture interfaces have difficulty supporting arbitrary multiple-stroke selections because lifting the pen introduces ambiguity as to whether the next stroke should add to the existing selection, or begin a new one. We explore and evaluate techniques that use a non-preferred-hand button or touchpad to phrase together one or more independent pen strokes into a unitary multi-stroke gesture. We then illustrate how such phrasing techniques can support multiple-stroke selection gestures with tapping, crossing, lassoing, disjoint selection, circles of exclusion, selection decorations, and implicit grouping operations. These capabilities extend the expressiveness of pen gesture interfaces and suggest new directions for multiple-stroke pen input techniques.

Design and analysis of delimiters for selection-action pen gesture phrases in scriboli
CHI '05: Proceedings of the SIGCHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing SystemsWe present a quantitative analysis of delimiters for pen gestures. A delimiter is "something different" in the input stream that a computer can use to determine the structure of input phrases. We study four techniques for delimiting a selection-action ...
Hover widgets: using the tracking state to extend the capabilities of pen-operated devices
CHI '06: Proceedings of the SIGCHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing SystemsWe present Hover Widgets, a new technique for increasing the capabilities of pen-based interfaces. Hover Widgets are implemented by using the pen movements above the display surface, in the tracking state. Short gestures while hovering, followed by a ...
Pen + touch = new tools
UIST '10: Proceedings of the 23nd annual ACM symposium on User interface software and technologyWe describe techniques for direct pen+touch input. We observe people's manual behaviors with physical paper and notebooks. These serve as the foundation for a prototype Microsoft Surface application, centered on note-taking and scrapbooking of ...
