1.5-8 Uncluttered Displays

Displays should be as uncluttered as possible.

Additional Information:
Display packing density should not exceed 50 percent. Density should be minimized for displays of critical information. Displays consisting largely of alphanumerics generally should not exceed 25 percent density. Displays composed largely of graphics may be more dense. The unused area should be distributed to separate logical groups, rather than having all unused area on one side. When a display contains too much data for presentation in a single frame, the display should be partitioned into separately displayable pages (multipage displays) or displayed through frames/viewports (such as scrollable windows).
