Abstract
The present invention relates to at least one image section which is represented according to a zoom factor selected from a number of different zoom factors. Either the represented image section is changed when the zoom factor is lower than a zoom threshold value, or a marker representation superimposing the image section is displaced when the zoom factor is higher than a zoom threshold value, via input elements.
Claims17
A method for navigating within an image, the method comprising:
- displaying at least one image segment according to a zoom factor;
- changing the displayed image segment using an input element if the zoom factor is less than a zoom threshold value;
- setting the displayed image segment when the zoom factor is greater than the zoom threshold value;
- and
- moving a marking point corresponding to the set image segment using the input element when the zoom factor is greater than the zoom threshold value and without changing the image segment being displayed when the marking point is not located in a corresponding border zone of the image segment and changing the image segment when the marking point is located in a corresponding border zone of the image segment.
