Abstract
A computer-implemented method monitors a video-based graphic. The method includes displaying a video-based graphic. A position of a pointer interaction is monitored. The method includes determining a designation of a pixel of the video-based graphic at a location of the pointer interaction. An action is performed based on the designation of the pixel of the video-based graphic at a location of the pointer interaction.
Claims16
A method comprising:
- displaying, with a display device, a video-based graphic;
- displaying, with the display device, other content, the other content at least partially obstructed by the video-based graphic;
- receiving, by a processor, a pointer interaction with the video-based graphic;
- determining, by the processor, a location of the pointer interaction with the video-based graphic;
- determining, by the processor, a transparency designation of a pixel of the video-based graphic at a location of the video-based graphic corresponding to the location of the pointer interaction;
- determining whether the transparency designation of the pixel of the video-based graphic corresponds to a negative interaction with the video-based graphic;
- and
- providing access to the other content displayed with the display device in response to determining that the transparency designation of the pixel of the video-based graphic corresponds to a negative interaction with the video-based graphic.

An apparatus comprising:
- a display device configured to:
- display a video-based graphic;
- and
- display other content, the other content at least partially obstructed by the video-based graphic;
- a user input device;
- and
- a processor coupled to the display device and the user input device, the processor configured to:
- receive a pointer interaction with the video-based graphic via the user interface;
- determine a location of the pointer interaction with the video-based graphic;
- determine a transparency designation of a pixel of the video-based graphic at a location of the video-based graphic corresponding to the location of the pointer interaction;
- determine whether the transparency designation of the pixel of the video-based graphic corresponds to a negative interaction with the video-based graphic;
- and
- provide access to the other content displayed with the display device in response to determining that the transparency designation of the pixel of the video-based graphic corresponds to a negative interaction with the video-based graphic.

- determining, by the processor, a transparency designation of a pixel of the video-based graphic at a location of the video-based graphic corresponding to the location of the pointer interaction;
- determining whether the transparency designation of the pixel of the video-based graphic indicates that the pixel is more transparent than a transparency threshold;
- and
- providing access to other content obscured by the video-based graphic in response to determining that the transparency designation of the pixel of the video-based graphic indicates that the pixel is more transparent than a transparency threshold.
