Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, this approach has two disadvantages: it requires an additional key, and it breaks the navigation flow from the top (all content) to the bottom (single item) of the hierarchy

Embodiment Construction

[0042] figure 1An embodiment in accordance with the invention is shown wherein the list of container 1 (ie albums) is interleaved with page 2 of the container and the list of items 3 (ie photos) in said container is also interleaved with page 4 of items. In this embodiment, the pages 2, 4 of the container are represented as scroll bars to the left of the list of items and / or containers (objects). One or more scroll bars are provided to visualize page-level navigation.

[0043] exist Figure 2a , a list of first-level objects, which are containers or folders named Project 1 to Project 9 , is shown in the first panel. Project 1 is selected, and the contents of the container are displayed in the second pane. The container includes a second level list, namely Files 1.1 to 1.6. When the last item in the second level list, file 1.6, is selected, no action is performed and the resulting window is shown in Figure 2b, in which file 1.6 is still selected.

Abstract

A method of providing screen scrolling in content, such as hierarchically ordered content, is provided, wherein at least one level in the content comprises a page level comprising pages of objects and an object level comprising the objects, the method comprises the steps of: scrolling the objects page-by-page in the page level, and scrolling the objects object-by-object in the object level. Especially when scrolling in larger amounts of content, such as hierarchically ordered content, it is an advantage of interweaving a page by page level with an object by object level, so that the user may choose a specific level to navigate either page-wise or object-wise.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method and a graphical user interface for navigating in data, and in particular to a method and a graphical user interface for navigating in data by means of a limited number of key or mouse operations. Background technique [0002] Navigating through hierarchically arranged data can be cumbersome and often requires many keystrokes or mouse operations to find a specific object. Especially when more content needs to be displayed than fits on a single screen, the user needs to use multiple keystrokes and / or mouse operations in order to access available but invisible content. [0003] When what needs to be displayed can be thought of as a list of items, up / down operations can be supported such that when the last visible item on the screen is reached, the portion of the screen is refreshed to show previously invisible items in the list. [0004] Navigating by item is sufficient as long as the list of items to be scrolled...
