Abstract
Model-based user interface development environments aim to provide designers with a more systematic approach to user interface development using a particular design method. This method is realised through tools which support the construction and linkage of the supported models. This paper presents the tools which support the construction of the Teallach models in the context of the Teallach design method. Distinctive features of the Teallach tool include comprehensive facilities for relating the different models, and the provision of a flexible design method in which models can be constructed and related by designers in different orders and in different ways.
