> To ensure that these rates were not artificially low due to usability issues, we also confirmed in a separate qualitative test that users were indeed able to find and operate the disable functionality if they desired to disable Page previews.
(From their AB article)
I just tested it and it's trivial to click. Are you actually having difficulty or just pretending it's hard so you can be condescending?
I think the best place for these controls are usually on the feature itself. I don't want to have to search in some independent preferences UI every I want to see if something can be tweaked, but it makes sense to offer it there as well.
“We thought the floating pop-up billboard showing you a preview of what’s inside when you glance at a building was a great feature as you walk down times square”
in my case every single time was by accident whilst moving the mouse around, off of other text I was trying to read.
frankly, its bloody annoying
it covered the text i was reading
the search for yet another "disable" setting begins....
