NAPA applications are based on databases. Ship design projects are lengthy, and often users end up re-using the same components or parts of their earlier solutions. For this reason, there is a feature where the user can copy content from a project to another.

Summary of requirements

• Easy to use interface to copy content (geometry, etc.) from a project to another
• Possibility to copy from a version of the project to another
• Handle exceptions of overwriting

I created several prototypes with multiple options, which we then tested internally with people close to our users. Participants for user tests were from Korea, Japan, China, Europe.

Below is a video of one of the prototype walkthroughs.
