A recent research direction in modeling interface is to automate or assist the sketch-to-3D translation process. This trend, known as sketch-based interface for modeling, is motivated by the ease of sketching and the ability of human viewers to imbue so much meaning into a sketch. In sketch-based user interface, user expresses visual ideas or messages as freeform strokes on pen-based systems, and the computer takes appropriate action by analyzing the perceptual features of the strokes. Although sketch-based system is powerful, it came with the cost of code complexity. The two main contributors to code complexity are: pen-tablet display and the difficulties in interpreting the sketches. This paper proposed a sketch-based API to reduce the code complexity in sketch-based user interface application. The proposed sketch-based API will be tested by building a sketch-based user interface. © 2010 IEEE. date: 2010 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-78049384947&doi=10.1109%2fITSIM.2010.5561366&partnerID=40&md5=f0e4c99810a49996f6219d2cdb1e62c8 id_number: 10.1109/ITSIM.2010.5561366 full_text_status: none publication: Proceedings 2010 International Symposium on Information Technology - Visual Informatics, ITSim'10 volume: 1 place_of_pub: Kuala Lumpur refereed: TRUE isbn: 9781424467181 citation: Lai, C.-Y. and Zakaria, N.
