==Guidelines==
[[File:NP-Wizard.png]]
* Provide a clear and easily understandable description of each step. Follow the [https://techbase.kde.org/Projects/Usability/HIG/Wording wording] guidelines.
* In addition to Next/Previous buttons, Include a list of steps that allow the user to track the current progress.
* The list should clearly identify the steps that have been completed and the steps that have not.
* Where possible, the user should be allowed to jump back to previous steps by selecting the step from the list.
* Where possible, the user should be allowed to quit the wizard at any time without adverse impacts.
* On the last step, provide a clear summary of the task accomplished by the wizard and a Finish button to make it clear to the user that this is the last step.
