N2 - The complexity of presenting and exploring large amounts of graphical data, on mobile devices, increases due to their small screen size. To mitigate this problem several approaches have been proposed to give clues about objects that are located off-screen. In this paper we present a user study comparing the Halo off-screen visualization technique with HaloDot, our approach that aims to improve direction awareness, as well as, relevance of off-screen objects, and to avoid cluttering of Halos. The study shows that searching and pointing relevant Points of Interest (PoI) can be achieved faster than with Halo and that the proposed aggregation method is useful.
