METHOD FOR OPERATING A CONTROL SYSTEM FOR A VEHICLE AND CONTROL SYSTEM FOR A VEHICLE
First Claim
1. A method for operating an operator control system for a vehicle, wherein the operator control system comprises a graphical display unit and a touch-sensitive interface, wherein coordinates from information presented on the display unit are associated with coordinates of the touch-sensitive interface, wherein the method comprises:
- presentation of at least one operator control panel on the display unit, wherein the at least one operator control panel is provided for a user to touch in order to operate an operator control function,detection of a touch on the touch-sensitive interface by the user,determination of whether the at least one operator control panel has been hit during the touch by virtue of the coordinates of the touch being compared with the coordinates of the at least one operator control panel, andenlarged presentation of the at least one operator control panel if no operator control panel has been hit.

Abstract
A method for operating an operator control system (1) comprises presentation of at least one operator control panel (5-9) on a display unit (2), wherein the at least one operator control panel (5-9) is provided for a user to touch in order to operate a operator control function, detection of a touch (10-12) on a touch-sensitive interface (3) by the user, determination of whether the at least one operator control panel (5-9) has been hit during the touch (10-12) by virtue of coordinates of the touch (10-12) being compared with coordinates of the at least one operator control panel (5-9), and enlarged presentation of the at least one operator control panel (5-9) if no operator control panel (5-9) has been hit.

6. A method for operating an operator control system for a vehicle, wherein the operator control system comprises a graphical display unit and a touch-sensitive interface, wherein the method comprises:
-
presentation of at least one operator control panel on the display unit, wherein the at least one operator control panel is provided for a user to touch in order to operate an operator control function, and enlarged presentation of the at least one operator control panel on the basis of a state of the operator control system, wherein the state of the operator control system can be altered by inputs from the user. - View Dependent Claims (7)

8. An operator control system for a vehicle, comprising:
-
a graphical display unit which is designed to present a piece of information for a user, a touch-sensitive interface which is designed to detect a touch by the user, wherein coordinates from information presented on the display unit are associated with coordinates of the touch-sensitive interface, and a control unit which is coupled to the display unit and to the touch-sensitive interface and which is designed to present at least one operator control panel on the display unit, wherein the at least one operator control panel is provided for the user to touch in order to operate an operator control function, to detect a touch on the touch-sensitive interface by the user, to determine whether the at least one operator control panel has been hit during the touch by comparing the coordinates of the touch with the coordinates of the at least one operator control panel, and to present the at least one operator control panel in enlarged form on the display unit if it has been determined that no operator control panel has been hit.
