USER INTERFACE OF ELECTRONIC APPARATUS
First Claim
1. A user interface, implemented on an electronic apparatus, comprising:
- at least one launched indicator, each launched indicator indicating an executed program;
at least one non-launched indicator, each non-launched indicator indicating a non-executed program, wherein the arrangement of the launched indicator and non-launched indicator forms a loop path, and the launched indicator and the non-launched indicator have a revolution around a centre of the loop path according to a received direction command; and
a specific location, wherein the launched indicator or the non-launched indicator moved to the specific location is a selectable indicator, and then the executed program or the non-executed program indicated by the selectable indicator can be called or operated.

Abstract
A user interface of electronic apparatus includes at least one launched indicator and at least one non-launched indicator, and the arrangement of the launched indicator and non-launched indicators forms a loop path so that the indicators can have a revolution around a centre of the loop path according to a direction command inputted by a user. Each launched indicator indicates an executed program, each non-launched indicator indicates a non-executed program, and the indicator moved to a specific location is defined as a selectable indicator. The user can control the program indicated by the selectable indicator with any operation.

12. A method for generating a user interface, implemented on an electronic apparatus, comprising:
-
providing at least one non-launched indicator for indicating a non-executed program; providing at least one launched indicator for indicating an executed program; arranging the non-launched indicator and the launched indicator to form a loop path; when a direction command is received, making the non-launched indicator and the launched indicator have a revolution around a centre of the loop path according to the received direction command; and defining the executed program or the non-executed program indicated by the launched indicator or non-launched indicator moved to a specific location as an operable program. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
