In this paper a novel zoom-based technique with pressure (hereafter referred to as “ZWPS”) is proposed to improve small target selection in pen-based interfaces. In this technique pressure is used as a switch mode to couple a standard pointing technique and a zoomable technique together. ZWPS allows both precise and normal selections. We conducted an experiment to examine the effectiveness of ZWPS. The experimental results indicate that ZWPS significantly enhance small target selections.
