Claims18
A display management system for an element displayed on a display of an electronic device, comprising:
- a sensor;
- a movement detection module connected to said sensor providing a movement signal indicating a notable signal from said sensor;
- and
- a displayed element adjustment module for generating said element on said display in a larger size after processing said movement detection signal.
A method for adjusting presentation of an element displayed on a display of an electronic device, comprising:
- monitoring for a notable movement of said device;
- and
- when said notable movement has been detected, generating said element in a larger size on said display after processing said movement detection signal.
A portable electronic device comprising:
- a sensor;
- a display;
- software controlling an element generated by an application on said display;
- an movement detection module connected to said sensor providing an orientation signal registering a notable signal from said sensor;
- and
