Device, Method, and Graphical User Interface for Navigating Through a Hierarchy
First Claim
1. A multifunction device, comprising:
- a display;
one or more processors;
memory; and
one or more programs, wherein the one or more programs are stored in the memory and configured to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including instructions for;
displaying a view of a top level of a hierarchical user interface on the display, the hierarchical user interface having a plurality of levels including the top level and one or more lower levels;
detecting a first input;
in response to detecting the first input, displaying a view of at least one of the lower levels while concurrently displaying at least a predefined portion of the view of the top level;
while displaying a view of a respective lower level and concurrently displaying at least the predefined portion of the view of the top level, detecting a second input; and
when the second input corresponds to a request to enter a content modification mode for the respective lower level;
entering the content modification mode for the respective lower level andceasing to display the predefined portion of the view of the top level.

Abstract
A multifunction device displays a view of a top level of a hierarchical user interface. The hierarchical user interface has a plurality of levels including the top level and one or more lower levels. In response to detecting a first input, the device displays a view of at least one of the lower levels and at least a predefined portion of the view of the top level. While displaying a view of a respective lower level and concurrently displaying at least the predefined portion of the view of the top level, the device detects a second input. When the second input corresponds to a request to enter a content modification mode for the respective lower level, the device enters the content modification mode for the respective lower level and ceases to display the predefined portion of the view of the top level.
