Embodiment Construction

[0029] Reference will now be made in detail to the embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. In the following detailed description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention. It will be apparent, however, to one skilled in the art that the present invention may be practiced without these specific details. In other instances, well-known methods, procedures, components, circuits, and networks have not been described in detail so as not to unnecessarily obscure aspects of the embodiments.

[0030] It is also to be understood that although first, second, etc. may be used herein to describe various elements, these elements should not be limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish one element from another. For example, a first contact could be termed a second contact, and, similarly, a second contact could be termed a first contact, without departing from the...

Abstract

Heuristics for resizing displayed objects within an electronic document are disclosed. The heuristics include resizing displayed objects (516) to predefined ratios (3:5), resizing displayed objects by predefined increments (520-2 TO 520-6), relating resizing of displayed objects to a global reference grid (522), and resizing a plurality of displayed objects aligned to an axis.

Description

[0001] related application [0002] This application claims priority to US Patent Application Serial No. 12 / 639,849, filed December 16, 2009. technical field [0003] The disclosed embodiments relate generally to computing devices and, more particularly, to computing devices and methods for managing user interface content and user interface elements. Background technique [0004] The use of computers and other electronic computing devices to manage user interface content and user interface elements has increased significantly in recent years. Exemplary computing devices that include the ability to manage user interface content and user interface elements include mobile phones, desktop computers, laptop computers, tablet computers, e-book readers, consumer electronics, personal digital assistants, and the like. [0005] Many users rely on electronic computing devices to manage user interface content and user interface elements. Unfortunately, existing methods of managing UI...
