SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR HANDLING STACKABLE WORKSPACES
First Claim
1. A system for navigating stackable workspaces on an electronic device, the system comprising:
- a navigation module configured to display a first workspace of a plurality of workspaces stacked along a stacking axis, the plurality of workspaces comprising a second workspace stacked on the first workspace, wherein at least one application is open in the first workspace or in the second workspace; and
a detection module configured to detect at least one of a first inter-workspace swipe gesture and an intra-workspace swipe gesture;
wherein the navigation module is configured to display the second workspace in response to the first inter-workspace swipe gesture, andwherein the navigation module is configured to switch between features or applications of the at least one application in response to the intra-workspace swipe gesture.

Abstract
Systems and methods for navigating stackable workspaces on an electronic device are provided. A system includes a navigation module configured to display a first workspace of a plurality of workspaces stacked along a stacking axis. The plurality of workspaces includes a second workspace stacked on the first workspace. At least one application is open in the first workspace or in the second workspace. The system also includes a detection module configured to detect at least one of a first inter-workspace swipe gesture and an intra-workspace swipe gesture. The navigation module is configured to display the second workspace in response to the first inter-workspace swipe gesture. The navigation module is configured to switch between features or applications of the at least one application in response to the intra-workspace swipe gesture.

10. A computer-implemented method for navigating stackable workspaces on an electronic device, the method comprising:
-
displaying a first workspace of a plurality of workspaces stacked along a stacking axis, the plurality of workspaces comprising a second workspace stacked on the first workspace, wherein at least one application is open in the first workspace or in the second workspace; detecting at least one of a first inter-workspace swipe gesture and an intra-workspace swipe gesture; displaying the second workspace in response to the first inter-workspace swipe gesture; and switching between features or applications of the at least one application in response to the intra-workspace swipe gesture. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12)

13. A system for providing a user interface on an electronic device, the system comprising:
-
a workspace module configured to generate a first workspace; a navigation module configured to generate a navigation menu comprising a set of access points, each access point being associated with an application; and a detection module configured to detect a swipe gesture performed on a first access point of the set of access points, wherein the workspace module is configured to open the application associated with the first access point in a first window at an end of the swipe gesture in the first workspace, wherein a size of the first window is less than a maximized size of the first workspace, the maximized size of the first workspace being substantially equal to a size of a screen of the electronic device. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
