Novel User Interfaces for Diagram Versioning and Differencing

Novel User Interfaces for Diagram Versioning and Differencing Inproceedings

Darius Dadgari, Wolfgang Stuerzlinger

Abstract:

Easily available software for diagram creation does not support the comparison of different versions and the merging of such versions. We present new methods and techniques for easy versioning of general two-dimensional diagrams. Multiple novel versioning methods for diagram versioning are compared to each other as well as to previous work in a user study. Participants in a user study preferred the Translucency View and Master Diagram Scenario to the other investigated methods and scenarios.
