Content abstraction presentation along a multidimensional path
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method, comprising:
- generating a first set of one or more content menu items related to content;
generating a second set of a plurality of content menu items related to content;
simultaneously displaying the first and second sets of content menu items;
for each content menu item in the first set of content menu items, associating a corresponding set of content abstractions with the content menu item;
associating another set of content abstractions with the second set of content menu items, each content menu item in the second set of content menu items associated with a corresponding content abstraction in the another set of content abstractions;
highlighting one of the content menu items;
if the highlighted content menu item belongs to the first set of content menu items, then displaying with the first and second sets of content menu items only the corresponding set of content abstractions that corresponds to the highlighted content menu item in the first set of content menu items;
if the highlighted content menu item belongs to the second set of content menu items, then displaying with the first and second sets of content menu items only the corresponding content abstractions in the another set of content abstractions that correspond to the content menu items in the second set of content menu items;
defining a multidimensional path; and
generating overlapping depth transitions of the displayed content abstractions through the multidimensional path.

Abstract
Content abstractions are emerged in to an ingress terminus of a multidimensional path and depth transitioned through the multidimensional path to an egress terminus. The content abstractions are eliminated at the egress terminus.

10. A computer readable medium storing instructions that upon execution by a processing device cause the processing device to perform operations comprising:
-
generating a first set of one or more content menu items related to content items; generating a second set of a plurality of content menu items related to content items; simultaneously displaying the first and second sets of content menu items; for each content menu item in the first set of content menu items, associating a corresponding set of content abstractions with the content menu item; associating another set of content abstractions with the second set of content menu items, each content menu item in the second set of the content menu items associated with a corresponding content abstraction in the another set of content abstractions; highlighting one of the content menu items; if the highlighted content menu item belongs to the first set of content menu items, then displaying with the first and second sets of content menu items only the corresponding set of content abstractions that corresponds to the highlighted content menu item in the first set of content menu items; if the highlighted content menu item belongs to the second set of content menu items, then displaying with the first and second sets of content menu items only the corresponding content abstractions in the another set of content abstractions that correspond to the content menu items in the second set of content menu items; defining a multidimensional path having an ingress terminus and an egress terminus; emerging the content abstractions into the multidimensional path at the ingress terminus; eliminating the content abstractions from the multidimensional path at the egress terminus; and generating depth transitions of the displayed content abstractions through the multidimensional path from the ingress terminus to the egress terminus. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15)
