1. A computing device, comprising:
- a touch screen display;
one or more processors;
memory; and
one or more programs, wherein the one or more programs are stored in the memory and configured to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including;
instructions for detecting one or more finger contacts with the touch screen display and relative to a displayed electronic document comprising a set of items; and
instructions for applying one of a plurality of navigation operations in response to the detected one or more finger contacts and based at least on a distance and a direction of the one or more finger contacts,wherein applying one of the plurality of navigation operations comprises;
applying a vertical screen scrolling operation in response to a determination that the one or more finger contacts correspond to a one-dimensional vertical screen scrolling command rather than a two-dimensional screen translation command based on a movement of the one or more finger contacts with respect to the touch screen display;
applying a two-dimensional screen translation operation in response to a determination that the one or more finger contacts correspond to the two-dimensional screen translation command rather than the one-dimensional vertical screen scrolling command based on the movement of the finger contact with respect to the touch screen display; and
applying a next item operation in response to a determination that the one or more finger contacts correspond to a command to transition from displaying a respective item in the set of items to displaying a next item in the set of items within the electronic document.

Abstract
Navigating on a display includes tracking motion of an input tool on a display, comparing a motion of the input tool to a threshold, and changing a position of the visible portion of a page of information on the display if the input tool motion exceeds the threshold. The position of the visible portion of the page of information on the display is constrained if the motion does not exceed the threshold.

5. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
-
displaying, at a computing device with a touch screen display, an electronic document comprising a set of items; detecting one or more finger contacts with the touch screen display and within the electronic document; and applying one of a plurality of navigation operations in response to the detected one or more finger contacts and based at least on a distance and a direction of the one or more finger contacts, wherein applying one of the plurality of navigation operations comprises; applying a vertical screen scrolling operation in response to a determination that the one or more finger contacts correspond to a one-dimensional vertical screen scrolling command rather than a two-dimensional screen translation command based on a movement of the one or more finger contacts with respect to the touch screen display; applying a two-dimensional screen translation operation in response to a determination that the one or more finger contacts correspond to the two-dimensional screen translation command rather than the one-dimensional vertical screen scrolling command based on the movement of the one or more finger contacts with respect to the touch screen display; and applying a next item operation in response to a determination that the one or more finger contacts correspond to a command to transition from displaying a respective item in the set of items to displaying a next item in the set of items within the electronic document. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7, 8, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36)

9. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having stored therein instructions, which when executed by a device with a touch screen display, cause the device to:
-
detect one or more finger contacts with the touch screen display and relative to a displayed electronic document comprising a set of items; and apply one of a plurality of navigation operations in response to the detected one or more finger contacts and based at least on a distance and a direction of the one or more finger contacts, wherein applying one of the plurality of navigation operations comprises; applying a vertical screen scrolling operation in response to a determination that the one or more finger contacts correspond to a one-dimensional vertical screen scrolling command rather than a two-dimensional screen translation command based on a movement of the one or more finger contacts with respect to the touch screen display; applying a two-dimensional screen translation operation in response to a determination that the one or more finger contacts correspond to the two-dimensional screen translation command rather than the one-dimensional vertical screen scrolling command based on the movement of the one or more finger contacts with respect to the touch screen display; and applying a next item operation in response to a determination that the one or more finger contacts correspond to a command to transition from displaying a respective item in the set of items to displaying a next item in the set of items within the electronic document. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44)
