Abstract
Methods and systems for facilitating the navigation of a list of content items with gestures are described. Consistent with some embodiments, a computing device detects simple gestures, and in response, display a preview of content items preceding, or following a currently selected content item, from the list of content items. Upon detecting a selection gesture, the computing device updates the view of the currently selected content item to display the newly selected content item.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method to enable navigation of a list of content items, each content item in the list having a list view and a detailed view, the method comprising:
- while displaying a detailed view of a first content item from the list of content items, detecting a first gesture;
- responsive to detecting the first gesture, displaying, simultaneous with the detailed view of the first content item, a list view of a second content item that immediately precedes the first content item in the list of content items;
- and
- responsive to detecting a second gesture, displaying, in place of the list view of the second content item a list view of a third content item that immediately precedes the second content item in the list of content items.
A computer-implemented method to enable navigation of a list of content items, each content item in the list having a list view and a detailed view, the method comprising:
- while displaying a detailed view of a first content item from the list of content items, detecting a first gesture;
- responsive to detecting the first gesture, displaying, simultaneous with the detailed view of the first content item, a list view of a second content item that immediately follows the first content item in the list of content items;
- and
- responsive to detecting a second gesture, displaying, in place of the list view of the second content item a list view of a third content item that immediately follows the second content item in the list of content items.
A computing device to facilitate navigating a list of content items, the device comprising:
- a hardware processor for executing instruction stored in a memory, the instructions, when executed, to cause the computing device to perform operations including:
- detecting a first gesture while displaying a detailed view of a first content item from the list of content items;
- responsive to detecting the first gesture, displaying, simultaneous with the detailed view of the first content item, a list view of a second content item that immediately precedes or follows the first content item in the list of content items;
- responsive to detecting a second gesture, displaying in place of the second content item a list view of a third content item that immediately precedes or follows, respectively the second content item in the list of content items.
