LIST DISPLAY APPARATUS, LIST DISPLAY METHOD AND GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE
First Claim
1. A list display apparatus comprising:
- a picture generating unit for generating a three-dimensional list picture, the three-dimensional list picture having a plurality of lower item cards having a respective lower items in a hierarchical structure being unfolded and expanded in a bellows configuration when shifting from an upper level to a lower level of the hierarchical structure, or the plurality of lower item cards being folded and collapsed in a bellows configuration when shifting from the lower level to the upper level of the hierarchical structure; and
a control unit for outputting the three-dimensional list picture to a predetermined display unit, thereby displaying the three-dimensional list picture.
