1. A processor system comprising a processor and a memory field for containing a computer interface having a number of elements each representing a function, an element being directly displayed on a screen in case this element is entirely displayed all the time and independent of whether or not this element has been activated, and an element being selectively displayable on the screen in case this element is not entirely displayed all the time but is only entirely displayed after this element has been activated, the processor system being adapted for displaying at least one element directly on a screen, the processor system being adapted forallocating a first element parameter to a first element, the first element parameter being a function of a number of times this first element has been activated,allocating an element type to the first element,allocating a second element parameter to a second element, the second element parameter being a function of a number of times this second element has been activated,allocating an element type to the second element,comparing the first element parameter with a threshold value and based on a comparison result either directly displaying the first element on the screen or enabling the first element for selective display on the screen,comparing the second element parameter with another threshold value and based on another comparison result either directly displaying the second element on the screen or enabling the second element for selective display on the screen, andbased on the comparison results either interchanging values of at least two element types or not interchanging values of said at least two element types,the memory field and the computer interface being adaptable by storing new values of element parameters and of element types.
