Abstract

A device, such as a multitasking mobile telephone or personal digital assistant (PDA), comprises a processor and a user interface including keys (10, 11) and a display. In response to a request from a user to view a menu, the processor compiles a list of menu options and determines the status of applications or functions associated with the menu options. If the menu option relates to an active application, an indicator is added to the list of menu options. The menu is displayed with the active or inactive status of the applications represented using animated icons (26a-c), color of text (25a-c) and / or icons (28a-c), sound, vibration or a combination of two or more of these properties. These properties may also be used to indicate the type of task being performed by an application.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device with a graphical user interface. In particular, the invention relates to a method for editing menus in such devices, and is especially suitable for use in a multitasking environment. Background technique [0002] Devices such as mobile phones or personal digital assistants (PDAs) typically have a graphical user interface (GUI) in which the user is presented with one or more menus listing available functions or applications. exist Figure 1a with 1b An example of a traditional user interface is shown in . The menu options can be presented to the user on the display 1 in the form of a list of icons 2 and / or text labels 3, as in Figure 1a shown in , where one or more options are shown at the same time. This type of menu is commonly used in mobile phones. The user can scroll the list by using the keyboard to move the focus window 4 over the options. For example, due to size limitation, the display screen 1 may not di...
