Abstract
With the recent move towards table displays, there has been an
increasing interest in examining horizontal orientation. In order to
effectively understand this issue, it is important to have a foundational
understanding of orientation on physical tables as well as table dependent
aspects of orientation. As an initial investigation into supporting rotation
of digital objects on table displays, an examination of mobile controls was
carried out. A test application consisting of a map with labels that could be
freely rotated was implemented and examined, and from this a general framework
for approaching orientation on table displays emerged.
