Abstract

Selon un mode de réalisation, l'invention concerne un dispositif électronique qui : affiche des objets exécutables d'un premier ensemble tandis qu'une première direction vers laquelle une première zone d'affichage est orientée est opposée à une seconde direction vers laquelle une seconde zone d'affichage est orientée ; sur la base de l'identification du fait qu'un angle entre la première direction et la seconde direction est modifié dans une première plage de référence, affiche les objets exécutables du premier ensemble et au moins un objet exécutable parmi une pluralité d'objets exécutables d'un second ensemble le long d'un premier bord de la première zone d'affichage et d'un premier bord de la seconde zone d'affichage ; et sur la base de l'identification du fait que l'angle entre la première direction et la seconde direction est changé dans une seconde plage de référence, affiche les objets exécutables du premier ensemble le long du premier bord de la seconde zone d'affichage et affiche au moins un objet exécutable parmi la pluralité d'objets exécutables du second ensemble le long d'un second bord de la seconde zone d'affichage (221).
