Embodiment Construction

[0015] Embodiments of the present invention are applicable to electronic equipment, such as a mobile station used as a terminal in a communication system including one or more base stations and a terminal communicating with the base stations. The device can be used, for example, for short-range communication via Bluetooth chips, infrared or WLAN connections. The electronic device is, for example, a cellular phone or another communication device including, for example, a portable computer, a personal computer, a handheld computer or a smart phone. Such a portable electronic device may be a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) device including the communication equipment necessary for establishing a network connection, or may be a PDA device connected eg to a mobile phone for network connection. The portable electronic device may also be a computer or PDA device that does not include a communication device.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method of navigating in application views of an electronic device, to an electronic device, to a graphical user interface, and to a computer program product. The electronic device is configured to: display an initial application view on the display, provide a floatable navigation area displayed at least partly over the application views on the display, the floatable navigation area comprising navigation blocks for controlling given software functions, detect a selection of a given navigation block indicated by the input device, perform software functions associated with the selected navigation block once the selection of said navigation block is detected, and to display a current application view on the basis of the performed software functions.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method of navigating in an application view of an electronic device, an electronic device for navigating in an application view, a graphical user interface for navigating in an application view displayed on a display of an electronic device, and a computer program product. Background technique [0002] The significance of different displays such as touch screens is becoming more and more important in portable electronic devices. The browsing capabilities of these devices are improving. For example, portable devices are increasingly used when navigating through different application views displayed on the device. Browsing on the Internet is an example where display availability is critical. However, for example, the size of different portable electronic devices is limited, so the size of the displays used for such devices is also usually much smaller than the corresponding displays used for personal computers. For example, ...
