Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for displaying graphic objects and a communication device, in particular a mobile phone or a computer.
  • graphic objects such as symbols, which indicate a function or a program
  • a virtual surface field for example on an electronically stored and graphically representable map, which is larger than an available display field.
  • Browsing maps or desktop surfaces using a limited section suffers from the problem that additional information such as Restaurant opening times, subway departure times, pictures of buildings etc. can only be viewed by the user when he has clicked on the corresponding icon on the map to open it in its detailed view. That the map view (with the icons) is separate from the detailed information of the respective icons.
  • the invention is based on the object of specifying a technical teaching which enables a comfortable, clear display of graphic objects which are displayed on a virtual surface. Are arranged surface area that is larger than an available display field.
  • graphic objects that are arranged on a virtual surface field that is larger than an available display field are preferably projected onto the edge of the display field if they are outside a predetermined threshold range.
  • graphic objects are also understood to mean symbols, symbol parts, icons, leonmaschine, display windows, display window parts, images, image sections or texts or text elements.
  • the display field is preferably formed by a display device, such as a graphic display, or part of a display device.
  • a display field can be realized by a graphics window.
  • the virtual surface field such as an electronic graphical map
  • the virtual surface field is preferably formed by information stored in a storage device, which describes the positions of graphic objects relative to a reference point on the virtual surface field.
  • this information can also describe the graphic objects themselves or a display scale.
  • This or other information can also determine which section of the virtual surface field is currently to be displayed in which display size on the display field.
  • the display size or the display scale of the virtual surface field and the graphic objects arranged thereon can be changed by the user, for example, so that the case can also occur that the representation of the virtual surface field becomes smaller than the display field. In this case, a projected representation of graphic objects can be omitted.
  • the virtual surface field is preferably larger than a display field if the current length and / or width dimensions of the display field are smaller than the current length or width dimensions of the virtual surface field, with the dimensions of the virtual being calculated The currently valid display scale is used.
  • a graphic object is preferably within a threshold range if it is wholly or partially within the threshold range or if its center lies within the threshold range.
  • the projection onto the edge of the display field includes in particular the case that the graphic object is wholly or partly from its actual position on the virtual surface field in the direction of the center of the displayed area. Section of the virtual surface field is shifted and is shown in whole or in part in the edge area of the display field.
  • the edge area is particularly to be interpreted broadly.
  • Graphic objects that are projected are preferably shown in a reduced size, distorted and / or shown as simple geometric shapes, such as lines, compared to the display scale that currently applies to the virtual surface field.
  • the marginal areas occupied by the projected graphic objects take up a minimum of space in line display and even when displayed by scaled semicircular projections or "half" object projections, the space requirement is very small A minimum of additional space is required (in extreme cases, it is only a pixel line of the edge area) in order to be able to visualize all graphic objects and their spatial relationship to one another.
  • the size of the representation of a projected graphic object is preferably set as a function of the distance between the displayed section of the virtual surface field and the position of the graphic object.
  • the reference point used for the calculation of the distance representing the section shown is preferably by the center of the section or the display field shown, a corner point of the section or the display field shown, the intersection of a corresponding projection line with the edge region of the display field or another Point of the section shown is formed.
  • the present invention preferably uses the input of a two-dimensional input device, such as a pen, a mouse, or the like, in order first to achieve the displacement of a map (virtual surface field) relative to its peep-hole (display field).
  • info icons graphics objects
  • a threshold area certain radius measured from the center.
  • it is now moved towards the center so that when the icon position is covered with the center, the information area also occupies the center position and, on the other hand, the area of the information area takes up the largest possible area according to certain heuristics.
  • the user can decide on complex viewing conditions with a single positioning interaction.
  • the information will be minimally detailed (this can be the actual icon, for example, but can also be a small additional info) 2. on the inner edge of the center projected away and 3. possibly connected with a (red) reference line to the actual map position.
  • the behavior described under 4a changes as follows: 1. Change of position The positions are no longer projected on the edge, but with increasing shortening of the Distance moved from the center to this. The direction of projection remains the same. In the current proto-typical implementation (code can be supplied if required), this is a linear function, but this can also be implemented in a non-linear manner. If the info position with the card movement is placed exactly on the center, the info area position is also in the center position. The impression that the user creates when driving in, through and out is a kind of 3-dimensional magnifying glass effect with regard to the position of the relevant information area. This is particularly impressive when some info positions are close together and group around the center. 2.
  • Size change When changing the position of the info area as described in 4bl, the size of the info area is also changed (if desired). This size change is maximal in the implemented prototype but independent of the surrounding neighboring areas when the positions of Information area and information position in the center. Other heuristics in the allocation of space are conceivable: a) Maximum size regardless of the area neighbors Has just been described and can be viewed dynamically in the prototype. b) Size in the threshold area is "democratically" based on the neighboring areas. The algorithm for this is as follows: • First, all areas determine what they would need as a maximum area and with which neighbors there would be an area conflict.
  • each area becomes a percentage reduced his neighbors of the conflict so that the areas no longer overlap c) size in the threshold area is "undemocratic" according to the neighboring areas
  • the algorithm for this is as follows: • First, all areas determine what they would need as the maximum area and with which neighbors it is an area conflict would come. • All areas whose positions lie within the maximum area of the area closest to the center, force this area closest to the center to reduce its size so that at least the icons (ie the maximally reduced information areas) have space next to it. • Then the procedure continues as in 4b2b or else • With each area closest to the center (and its still further away), the same procedure is used as described above (closest to the center). D) Size in the threshold range depends on other heuristics "into the heuristics of how large which area should be drawn in the event of a conflict, conceivable.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé permettant de représenter des objets graphiques, selon lequel lesdits objets graphiques sont disposés sur un champ de surface virtuel, notamment sur une carte topographique électronique. Selon ledit procédé, le champ de surface virtuel est supérieur à un champ d'affichage. Un secteur du champ de surface virtuel accompagné des objets graphiques est représenté sur le champ d'affichage. Le champ de surface virtuel et le champ d'affichage sont déplacés l'un par rapport à l'autre. Une zone seuil est prédéfinie, de manière centrée, à l'intérieur du champ d'affichage. Les objets graphiques qui se trouvent à l'intérieur du champ d'affichage et en dehors de la zone seuil sont projetés, du centre du champ d'affichage, sur le bord du champ d'affichage.
