GUI Elements
- GUI provides a set of components to interact with software or hardware.
- Every graphical component provides a way to work with the system.
- A GUI system has following elements such as:
Window
- An area where contents of application are displayed.
- Contents in a window can be displayed in the form of icons or lists, if the window represents file structure.
- It is easier for a user to navigate in the file system in an exploring window.
- Windows can be minimized, resized or maximized to the size of screen.
- They can be moved anywhere on the screen.
- A window may contain another window of the same application, called child window.
Tabs
- If an application allows executing multiple instances of itself, they appear on the screen as separate windows.
- Tabbed Document Interface has come up to open multiple documents in the same window.
- This interface also helps in viewing preference panel in application.
- All modern web-browsers use this feature.
Menu
- Menu is an array of standard commands, grouped together and placed at a visible place (usually top) inside the application window.
- The menu can be programmed to appear or hide on mouse clicks.
Icon
- An icon is small picture representing an associated application.
- When these icons are clicked or double clicked, the application window is opened.
- Icon displays application and programs installed on a system in the form of small pictures.

- On screen cursor follows the instructions from hardware in almost real-time.
- Cursors are also named pointers in GUI systems.
- They are used to select menus, windows and other application features.
