Abstract
A system and method are described for changing window's functionality upon detecting resizing events. According to one example method, a plurality of size thresholds is defined that are associated with a plurality of functional states for a window. Upon detecting that a size of a window reaches a first size threshold, a first functional state is applied to a window. Then, upon detecting another size threshold as the window is being increased or decreased in size, another functional state associated with the detected threshold is applied to the window.

A method for providing dynamic functional states based on a window's characteristics, comprising:
- providing a first functional state in relation to the window having a first size, the first functional state configured to display market data using a first display type, wherein the first display type does not include order entry functionality;
- resizing the window such that the size of the window has a second size that is different from the first size;
- and
- dynamically providing a second functional state in relation to the window having the second size, wherein the second functional state is configured to display market data using a second display type that is different than the first display type, wherein the second display type comprises a market display window for displaying the market data and included order entry functionality to send order messages to buy or sell a tradeable object.
