EDGE GESTURE
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- determining that a gesture has a start point at an edge of a user interface or display and a later point not at the edge;
determining a second user interface of multiple user interfaces to present based on one or more factors of the gesture; and
responsive to determining a second user interface of multiple user interfaces to present, presenting the second user interface.

Abstract
This document describes techniques and apparatuses enabling an edge gesture. In some embodiments, these techniques and apparatuses enable selection of a user interface not currently exposed on a display through an edge gesture that is easy-to-use and remember.

10. A computer-implemented method comprising:
-
determining that a gesture has a start point at an edge of a gesture-sensitive display or user interface presented within the gesture-sensitive display and a later point not at the edge; responsive to the determining, causing a second user interface to be presented; determining, based on a successive point of the gesture, that the gesture includes a reversal; and responsive to determining that the gesture includes the reversal, causing the second user interface to cease to be presented. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12)

13. A computer-implemented method comprising:
-
determining that a gesture has a start point at an edge of a gesture-sensitive display or a first user interface presented within the gesture-sensitive display and a later point not at the edge; responsive to the determining, causing presentation of a second user interface; determining, based on a successive point of the gesture, that the gesture extends a preset distance from the edge or the later point; and responsive to determining that the gesture extends, causing an expansion of the second user interface or presentation of a third user interface. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
