Navigating scrollable sections of content in a viewing area

A computer-implemented method, comprising:

• displaying on a computing device a view panel having a first end and an opposing second end, wherein
• the view panel displays scrollable sections,
• the scrollable sections each include a heading bar and exposable content, the exposable content for a scrollable section appears between the heading bar and the second end when the exposable content is visible,
• when a particular heading bar, which is any heading bar of the view panel, is docked on either the first end or the second end, no exposable content is visible between the particular heading bar and the end on which the particular heading bar is docked, and
• the particular heading bar cannot scroll past a given end of the view panel without first becoming docked in a stack at the given end of the view panel;
• receiving input corresponding to scrolling that causes the particular heading bar to change from being docked to being undocked;
• responsive to the input, displaying an updated view panel, including
• undocking and moving the particular heading bar away from the end on which the particular heading bar is docked,
• making visible a first exposable content between the particular heading bar and an adjoining heading bar, and
• at least partially collapsing a second exposable content on a side of the particular heading bar opposite the adjoining heading bar;
• and
• receiving input corresponding to a selection of the heading bar associated with the particular scrollable section, the particular heading bar containing a particular heading and having associated therewith a partially-exposed area of the first exposable content other than the particular heading, and responsive to the selection input, fully exposing the first exposable content of the partially-exposed area.

A non-transitory computer program product storing program instructions that, when executed on a computer, cause actions comprising:

• displaying, on a computing device, a view panel having a first end and an opposing second end, the view panel displaying scrollable sections, wherein
• each scrollable section includes a heading bar and exposable content, wherein the exposable content of a scrollable section, when visible, is situated between the heading bar and the second end,
• when a particular heading bar, which is any heading bar of the view panel, is docked on either the first end or the second end, no exposable content is visible between the particular heading bar and the end on which the particular heading bar is docked, and
• the particular heading bar cannot scroll past a given end of the view panel without first becoming docked in a stack at the given end of the view panel;
• receiving input corresponding to scrolling the particular heading bar that is docked, the particular heading bar being associated with a particular scrollable section;
• when the particular heading bar is docked against the second end and the input corresponds to scrolling the particular heading bar toward the first end, scrolling the particular heading bar toward the first end while (a) exposing first exposable content of the particular scrollable section, and (b) collapsing other exposable content of another scrollable section of the view panel to make room for the first exposable content;
• and
• receiving input corresponding to a selection of the particular heading bar associated with the particular scrollable section, the particular heading bar containing a particular heading and having associated therewith a partially-exposed area of the first exposable content other than the particular heading, and responsive to the selection input, fully exposing the first exposable content of the partially-exposed area.

• receiving input corresponding to scrolling a first particular heading bar that is docked, the particular heading bar being associated with a particular scrollable section of the view panel;
• when the particular heading bar is docked against the second end and the input corresponds to scrolling the particular heading bar toward the first end, scrolling the particular heading bar toward the first end while (a) exposing particular exposable content of the particular scrollable section, and (b) collapsing other exposable content of another scrollable section of the view panel to make room for the particular exposable content;
• responsive to receiving the input corresponding to scrolling the particular heading bar that is docked, applying a non-linear mapping to the speed at which the scrolling is displayed on the computing device;
• and
• receiving input corresponding to a selection of the particular heading bar associated with the particular scrollable section, the particular heading bar containing a particular heading and having associated therewith a partially-exposed area of the particular exposable content other than the particular heading, and responsive to the selection input, fully exposing the particular exposable content of the partially-exposed area associated with the particular heading bar.
