Embodiment Construction

[0046]Before describing in detail embodiments that are in accordance with the present invention, it should be observed that the embodiments reside primarily in combinations of method steps and apparatus components related to altering a presentation orientation of visual indicia on a display in response to user input and then reverting the presentation orientation to an initial orientation in response to a device event, which can be a non-user initiated event. Any process descriptions or blocks in flow charts should be understood as representing modules, segments, or portions of code that include one or more executable instructions for implementing specific logical functions or steps in the process. Alternate implementations are included, and it will be clear that functions may be executed out of order from that shown or discussed, including substantially concurrently or in reverse order, depending on the functionality involved. Accordingly, the apparatus components and method steps ...

Abstract

A display system includes a display and a control circuit operable with the display. The display is configured to provide visual output having a presentation orientation. When user input is received, the control circuit can alter the presentation orientation from an initial orientation in response to user input. When non-user events or device events are detected, the control circuit can revert the presentation orientation to the initial orientation in response to the non-user event or device event. Where the presentation orientation has a user input configuration associated therewith, the user input configuration can either be altered with the presentation orientation or retained in an initial disposition.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO PRIOR APPLICATIONS[0001]This application is related to commonly assigned, U.S. application Ser. No. ______, entitled, “Methods and Devices for Clothing Detection about a Wearable Electronic Device,” Dickinson, et al., inventors, filed concurrently herewith, Attorney Docket No. CS38886, and U.S. application Ser. No. ______, entitled, “Display Device, Corresponding Systems, and Methods for Orienting Output on a Display,” Dickinson, et al., inventors, filed concurrently herewith, Attorney Docket No. CS38820, and which are incorporated by reference for all purposes.BACKGROUND[0002]1. Technical Field[0003]This invention relates generally to user interfaces, and more particularly to devices, methods, and systems for orienting information on user interfaces and displays.[0004]2. Background Art[0005]Electronic devices, such as mobile telephones, smart phones, gaming devices, and the like, present information to users on a display. As these devices have become more sophist...
