Abstract
An electronic device has a UI that provides first user-selectable options. Second user selectable options are made available upon selection of a specific one of the first options. An information resolution of the first options, when rendered, differs from the information resolution of the second options when rendered. Also, a first modality of user interaction with the UI for selecting from the first options differs from a second modality of user interaction with the UI for selecting from the second options.
Claims12
An electronic device with a UI, wherein:
- the UI provides first user-selectable options, and second user selectable options available upon selection of a specific one of the first options;
- an information resolution of the first options when rendered differs from the information resolution of the second options when rendered;
- and
- a first modality of user interaction with the UI for selecting from the first options differs from a second modality of user interaction with the UI for selecting from the second options.
A method of providing a UI for enabling to select options arranged in first and second layers, wherein:
- when rendered in the UI, the options in the first layer have an information resolution that differs from the information solution of the options in the second layer when rendered in the UI;
- and
- the method comprises providing a first modality to select a first one of the options in the first layer, that differs from a second modality to select a second one of the options in a second layer.
Software for use on an electronic device for generating a UI that provides first user-selectable options, and second user selectable options available upon selection of a specific one of the first options, wherein an information resolution of the first options when rendered differs from the information resolution of the second options when rendered, and wherein a first modality of user interaction with the UI for selecting from the first options differs from a second modality of user interaction with the UI for selecting from the second options.
An electronic content guide or electronic program guide, with a UI that provides first user-selectable options, and second user selectable options available upon selection of a specific one of the first options, wherein an information resolution of the first options when rendered differs from the information resolution of the second options when rendered, and wherein a first modality of user interaction with the UI for selecting from the first options differs from a second modality of user interaction with the UI for selecting from the second options.
