Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for displaying a graphic object and a corresponding communication device, in particular a mobile phone or a computer.
  • the invention is based on the object of specifying a technical teaching which enables a clear display of graphic objects which are arranged on a virtual surface field which 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 projected onto the edge of the display field if they lie outside the section of the virtual surface field shown.
  • the projected graphic objects are displayed in such a way that the projected graphic objects do not overlap.
  • graphic objects also mean symbols, symbol parts, icons, leon parts, 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 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. In addition, 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 display 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 outside the section of the virtual surface field shown if it is entirely or partially outside the section of the virtual surface shown. chenfeldes, or if its center lies outside the section of the virtual surface field shown.
  • the projection onto the edge of the display field includes, in particular, the case that the graphic object is shifted in whole or in part from its actual position on the virtual surface field in the direction of the center of the section of the virtual surface field shown and in whole or in part in the edge region of the display field - is provided.
  • 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 when displaying lines and even when displaying with scaled semicircular projections or "half" object projections, the space required is very small a minimal amount 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 a corner point of the section shown through the center of the section or the display field shown or the display panel, the intersection of a corresponding projection line with the edge region of the display panel or another point of the section shown.
  • the present invention is based on a central projection with additional rules which relate to the arrangement of the projected objects to one another and their size.
  • the size of the objects is normalized to the difference between the minimum and maximum distance between the objects.
  • the advantage of the method is the compression of different distances in a way that allows the user to view and interact with objects in a confined space without having to go through different zoom levels. If, for example, a trip from Munich to Tokyo is considered, where information (such as travel photos) at Munich Airport at Tokyo Airport, at various sights in Tokyo etc. has been included in the system, the user can select the information from Kunststoff directly next to the information Perceive Tokyo without having to zoom. He can also use this compressed information display with simple interactions, for example for fast navigation (what information is available at Munich Airport, which is important at Tokyo Airport, etc.).
  • a bowl-shaped arrangement is used as long as the objects do not touch after projection. This system can vary from its "thickness" the thickness of a projected object down to zero thickness (see FIGS. 4 to 7 and 8). Especially when the shell thickness is chosen zero, the method is displacement and further points Size variation instructed so that the user can still feel the distance with simultaneous directional information.
  • Size calculation depending on the distance uses the following Size variation algorithm (see Figures 9 and 10): 1. First, the minimum and maximum distances of all objects located outside the peep-hole are calculated 2. Then the maximum for the minimally distant object is calculated maximum removed the minimum icon size 3. Objects that are in their distance in between are either linear or abe r shows a nonlinear interpolation in size between the two extremes. The non-linear size determination is based on the density distribution of the projected objects on a distance scale (the more objects are located in a certain distance interval, the greater the detail of the change in size and vice versa. d.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé permettant de représenter des objets graphiques, selon lequel les objets graphiques sont disposés sur un champ de surface virtuel. Le champ de surface est supérieur à un champ d'affichage. Un secteur du champ de surface virtuel est représenté sur le champ d'affichage. Les objets graphiques qui sont disposés en dehors du secteur représenté du champ de surface virtuel sont projetés sur le bord du champ d'affichage. A cet effet, la représentation des objets graphiques projetés s'effectue par déplacement, de sorte que les objets graphiques (PGO) projetés représentés ne se chevauchent pas.
