Separate selection & activation

For system with interactive components, people may need to have separate means of selecting and then activating controls.

Notes

Some potential examples:

• Somebody with tremor or low accuracy may find it better to select and confirm with two separate steps rather than say just using a mouse or touchscreen where selection and activation is essentially the same motion.
• This can be important for everybody with steps where mistakes are likely to occur and there are larger consequences of a mistake.

Note: This is in the " Perceive " section in the ISO guidelines, but seems to (also) be related to operation.
