Fixed Sub-Data List Identification for Large Screen Display Efficiency
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional PADs with large screens face operational inefficiencies when displaying menu items with multiple objects, as objects can move out of the display region, making it difficult for users to identify the correct object, leading to complex procedures and wasted time.
Innovation Solution
A display method and electronic apparatus that maintains the sub-data list identification at a fixed position within the display region, even when the relative position of the data list changes, ensuring users can easily identify the displayed object without additional operations by controlling the display of sub-data list identifications based on the presence of the last display object within the region.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Area of stationary object
If objects are displayed by movement in a large screen PAD, then the display region can accommodate multiple objects, but the user cannot identify which menu item the displayed object belongs to when the object moves out of the display region
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the display system into two distinct components: moving objects (data items) and stationary identifiers (menu item labels). The identifiers remain fixed in the display region while the objects move independently, allowing users to always know which menu item corresponds to each object regardless of its position.
Solution Approach 2:
The stationary identifier acts as an intermediary that links the moving object to its parent menu item. Even when objects move out of the original position, the fixed identifier serves as a reference point that maintains the relationship between the object and its source menu item.
2Quantity of substance
If objects move out of the display region, then more objects can be displayed, but the operating procedure becomes complex and time is wasted
Solution Approach 1:
The identifiers are preliminarily positioned in fixed locations before any object movement occurs. This preliminary arrangement ensures that even as objects move dynamically, their corresponding identifiers are already in place to provide immediate recognition, eliminating the need for users to track object positions or perform additional operations to identify menu items.
3Stability of the object's composition
If sub-data list identification moves with the data list, then the identification remains with the object, but the user cannot determine the selected object when the identification moves out of the display region
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies different quality characteristics to different components: identifiers have the quality of being stationary and fixed in specific locations, while objects have the quality of being movable. This local differentiation in stability allows the system to maintain the relationship between objects and identifiers while ensuring identifiers remain visible for user reference.
