Displayed image transition indicator

A dual display communication device comprising:

• a first screen, the first screen including:
• a first touch sensitive display region of the first screen;
• a first gesture capture region of the first screen, wherein the first gesture capture region is within the first screen but separate from the first touch sensitive display region on the first screen, and wherein the first gesture capture region does not provide a display;
• a second screen connected to the first screen by a hinge, the second screen including:
• a second touch sensitive display region of the second screen;
• a second gesture capture region of the second screen, wherein the second gesture capture region is within the second screen but separate from the second touch sensitive display region on the second screen, and wherein the second gesture capture region does not provide a display;
• a processor coupled with the first screen and the second screen;
• and
• a memory coupled with and readable by the processor and storing therein a set of instructions which, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to:
• receive, through the first gesture capture region, a drag gesture, the drag gesture indicating that a window is to be moved from a first touch sensitive display region to a second touch sensitive display region, wherein the window is displaying active content for an application;
• and
• in response and prior to movement of the window to the second touch sensitive display region:
• determine, based on contents of the window, to enable a transition indicator;
• display a movement of at least a portion of the transition indicator from the first touch sensitive display region to the second touch sensitive display region, wherein the transition indicator is displayed as moving at substantially a same rate as a rate of movement for the drag gesture, wherein the transition indicator is a static image, and wherein the transition indicator is a same size and same shape to the window;
• while displaying the movement of at least the portion of the transition indicator from the first touch sensitive display region to the second touch sensitive display region, continue to display the active content of the window on the first touch sensitive display region;
• determine if the transition indicator has reached a predetermined point on the second touch sensitive screen;
• upon display of the transition indicator reaching a predetermined point on the second touch sensitive screen, animate movement of the window from the first touch sensitive display region to the second touch sensitive display region in response to display of the transition indicator reaching the predetermined point.

A non-transitory, computer-readable medium comprising a set of instructions which, when executed by a processor, causes the processor to:

• provide a multi-screen device including:
• a first screen, the first screen including:
• a first touch sensitive display region of the first screen;
• a first gesture capture region of the first screen, wherein the first gesture capture region is within the first screen but separate from the first touch sensitive display region on the first screen, and wherein the first gesture capture region does not provide a display;
• a second screen connected to the first screen by a hinge, the second screen including:
• a second touch sensitive display region of the second screen;
• a second gesture capture region of the second screen, wherein the second gesture capture region is within the second screen but separate from the second touch sensitive display region on the second screen, and wherein the second gesture capture region does not provide a display;
• receive, by the first gesture capture region, a drag gesture, the drag gesture indicating that a window is to be moved from a first touch sensitive display region to a second touch sensitive display region, wherein the window is displaying active content for an application;
• and
• in response and prior to movement of the window to the second touch sensitive display region:
• determine, based on contents of the window, to enable a transition indicator;
• display a movement of at least a portion of the transition indicator from the first touch sensitive display region to the second touch sensitive display region, wherein the transition indicator is displayed as moving at substantially a same rate as a rate of movement for the drag gesture, wherein the transition indicator is a static image, and wherein the transition indicator is a same size and same shape to the window;
• while displaying the movement of at least the portion of the transition indicator from the first touch sensitive display region to the second touch sensitive display region, continue to display the active content of the window on the first touch sensitive display region;
• and
• determine if the transition indicator has reached a predetermined point on the second touch sensitive screen;
• upon display of the transition indicator reaching a predetermined point on the second touch sensitive screen, animate movement of the window from the first touch sensitive display region to the second touch sensitive display region in response to display of the transition indicator reaching the predetermined point.
