Abstract

An electronic system includes: a user interface configure to provide a plurality of an interface panel less than a display threshold for displaying on a device; and a control unit, coupled to the user interface configured to: determine a panel position for determining a view type for the plurality of the interface panel, and determine a panel dimension based on the panel position for expanding the interface panel in a focus position for displaying a subpanel.

Claims

1. An electronic system comprising:

a user interface configure to provide a plurality of an interface panel less than a display threshold for displaying on a device; and

a control unit, coupled to the user interface configured to;

determine a panel position for determining a view type for the plurality of the interface panel, and

determine a panel dimension based on the panel position for expanding the interface panel in a focus position for displaying a subpanel.

2. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to determine an interface opacity based on the view type for the subpanel having an interface color different from the interface panel.

3. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to determine a page coverage of an interface page for determining a page opacity.

4. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to change a side angle by pivoting a slanted top side, a slanted bottom side, or a combination thereof based on a gesture direction.

5. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to update the panel dimension based on a gesture speed for changing an adjustment degree of the panel dimension.

6. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to determine an interface opacity based on the focus position for an instance of the interface panel in the focus position including an interface color different from another instance of the interface panel in the panel position different from the focus position.

7. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to determine a moving set based on a gesture speed meeting or exceeding a speed threshold.

8. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to update the panel dimension based on gesture speed meeting or exceeding a speed threshold for changing an adjustment degree.

9. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to determine a page coverage based on a page center (41) of an interface page relative to a display center of a display interface.

10. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to provide an interface page including the plurality of the interface panel in a peek view, a contracted view, or a combination thereof.

11. A method of operation of an electronic system comprising:

providing a plurality of an interface panel less than a display threshold for displaying on a device;

determining a panel position with a control unit for determining a view type for the plurality of the interface panel; and

determining a panel dimension based on the panel position for expanding the interface panel in a focus position for displaying a subpanel.

12. The method as claimed in claim 11 further comprising determining an interface opacity based on the view type for the subpanel having an interface color different from the interface panel.

13. The method as claimed in claim 11 further comprising determining a page coverage of an interface page for determining a page opacity.

14. The method as claimed in claim 11 further comprising changing a side angle by pivoting a slanted top side, a slanted bottom side, or a combination thereof based on a gesture direction.

15. The method as claimed in claim 11 further comprising updating the panel dimension based on a gesture speed for changing an adjustment degree of the panel dimension.

16. An electronic system including a user interface comprising:

an interface page including a page opacity based on a page coverage;

an interface panel within the interface page displayed in a view type based on a panel position; and

a subpanel within the interface panel having an interface opacity different from the interface panel.

17. The user interface as claimed in claim 16 wherein a plurality of the interface panel having a panel dimension different from one another based on the panel position within a display interface.

18. The user interface as claimed in claim 16 wherein the interface panel is in a peek view for displaying the subpanel including a preview.

19. The user interface as claimed in claim 16 wherein the interface panel is in a contracted view for hiding the subpanel.

20. The user interface as claimed in claim 16 wherein the subpanel having the interface opacity different from the interface opacity of the interface panel based on a luminosity factor.

21. A non-transitory computer readable medium including instructions for execution by a control unit comprising:

providing a plurality of an interface panel less than a display threshold for displaying on a device;

determining a panel position for determining a view type for the plurality of the interface panel; and

determining a panel dimension based on the panel position for expanding the interface panel in a focus position for displaying a subpanel.

22. The non-transitory computer readable medium as claimed in claim 21 further comprising determining an interface opacity based on the view type for the subpanel having an interface color different from the interface panel.

23. The non-transitory computer readable medium as claimed in claim 21 further comprising determining a page coverage of an interface page for determining a page opacity.

24. The non-transitory computer readable medium as claimed in claim 21 further comprising changing a side angle by pivoting a slanted top side, a slanted bottom side, or a combination thereof based on a gesture direction.

25. The non-transitory computer readable medium as claimed in claim 21 further comprising updating the panel dimension based on a gesture speed for changing an adjustment degree of the panel dimension.
