Abstract
The Focus 3D Telemodeling Tool was designed as a novel graphical interface to data modeling for standards development. This paper describes the design intent for the proposed Graphical User Interface (GUI) of Focus -- how users interact with the system and each other, what feedback is provided to indicate success or failure of a particular action, and how existing model data is made available to the user for modification or addition to a new model. Focus has been designed to satisfy the use cases specified in the document ?Focus 3D Telemodeling Tool: Use Cases for Iteration 1? by Arthur Griesser. Detailed use case descriptions may be found in that document. This document will describe the behaviors that satisfy those use cases: selection, creation, searching, moving, updating, and deleting behaviors, and the tool palette.
