Figure 16: An example of a Multipage Dialog
8.2.1 Grouping settings and choosing the title of the page
Group settings so that related settings appear on the same page, and give that page a title that sums up the settings
of that page. For settings that are not related and cannot be included in any other page, use the term ‘‘Other’’ as the
title of the page.
8.2.2 Display the most important page first
With Multipage Dialogs, display the most important page first. This page is opened first when a dialog is opened.
8.2.3 Multipage Dialogs can make your application much easier to use
Crowding one screen/dialog is usually counter-productive — the more items there are, the more the user gets
confused. Even just one setting that they do not understand may discourage them from using the dialog.
If a dialog contains a lot of information, try to use a Multipage Dialog, and move less important, less commonly used
settings off the first page. As with everything else, a dialog should focus on the everyday things the user wants to do,
and should express things in terms the user understands.
