4.2.2 Designing interactive graphics
This section outlines the recommended layout to optimize user experience during room operation. As a security
measure to prevent malware attacks, Web browsers do not allow the display to change to full-screen mode
without user interaction. Using a different layout may cause the icon to display, which indicates that a tap or
click is required to authorize full-screen mode.
NOTICE
When using any kiosk graphic with hyperlinks, always ensure there is a way to
hyperlink back to the kiosk before initiating full-screen mode.
Overview
● A single graphic is assigned to a kiosk configured for an interactive graphic.
– This graphic is initially displayed when the kiosk is activated and whenever a user navigates to the kiosk.
– This graphic can contain hyperlinks to other graphics, which allows multiple graphics to be used for
room operation.
● It is only possible to enter or exit full-screen mode by hyperlinking to the kiosk.
– Hyperlinking to the graphic assigned to the kiosk supports room operation but does not support the
touch sequence to exit full-screen mode.
– Navigating to the kiosk to exit from full-screen mode requires clicking the icon.
● Configure hyperlinks so that users can always navigate to the kiosk from any graphic used in room
operation. Use one of the following methods to provide this navigation:
–
(Recommended)
Create a direct hyperlink to the kiosk from each graphic.
– Create a hyperlink to the kiosk on only one graphic and ensure that this graphic can be accessed from
all others.
For example, the Sample Room graphic is assigned to a kiosk and contains a hyperlink to the Sample room
segment graphic. The kiosk is activated by touching the icon and full-screen mode is enabled. If the kiosk
operator selects the hyperlink to navigate to the Sample room segment graphic, there must be a way to return to
the kiosk to which Sample Room graphic is assigned. Although the Sample room segment graphic provides a
hyperlink back to the Sample room graphic, it is not possible to exit full-screen mode from either graphic. The
display is stuck in full-screen mode.
● A hyperlink that navigates to the kiosk itself is required in the Sample Room graphic.
● A hyperlink that navigates to the kiosk itself is recommended in the Sample room segment graphic.
Recommended layout
The recommended layout for an interactive graphic with hyperlinks uses a starting graphic to provide a clear,
visual indication that the user has navigated to the kiosk. The starting graphic should clearly provide the
following information:
● Confirmation that the touch sequence to exit full-screen mode is available for users with the appropriate
access.
● The navigation sequence to initiate or return to room operation.
