1. A computer implemented method for moving window objects about a display frame, the method comprising:

  • receiving a gesture, the gesture comprising a signal from a human interface device;

    determining environmental variables, the environmental variables comprising at least a strength of the gesture from the human interface device and mass values for the window objects wherein the mass values for the window objects correspond to inertial values for movement of the window objects;

    applying a first movement to a first window object, the first movement based on a first mass value of the first window object and at least one aspect of the gesture; and

    applying a second movement to a second window object, the second movement based on a second mass value of the second window object and the same at least one aspect of the gesture;

    wherein the second movement is different from the first movement when the second mass value is different from the first mass value.
