The ratio of interactions that enter text into text fields is relatively high in comparison
with the other user interactions (
). This should be reduced. As an example, entering data can also be done using check boxes
or combo boxes in the case predefined values must be entered.
Several interactions that enter text into text fields repeat tokens such as words or
specific signs (
). This is an indicator that the same data must be entered several times. This could be
better supported by using e.g. automatic filling of input fields, provision of combo
boxes or lists prefilled with data that was already entered previously.
Much of the text entered into text fields contains signs other than letters or digits (
). This is an indicator that the entered data has to follow a specific syntax. This should
be supported by syntax checking, auto completion or even providing the text fields in a way
that does not require the entering of special signs as they are already included at the right
positions.
