Systems and methods for managing the display of content on an electronic device
First Claim
1. A method in an electronic device, the method comprising:
- receiving, at the electronic device, an indication of an incoming communication;
displaying a notification of the incoming communication in a notification area along an outside surface of a touchscreen of the electronic device, wherein the touchscreen can be rolled to form the outside surface;
changing a boundary location of the notification area on the outside surface while displaying the notification in the notification area;
detecting an interaction by the user with the touchscreen; and
in response to the detecting the interaction by the user, terminating the displaying of the notification along the outside surface;
identifying, from the interaction, a position of a hand of the user;
determining, by a processor based on the position of the hand, a display region on the outside surface of the touchscreen to display a graphic; and
displaying, within the display region on the touchscreen, the graphic.

Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for managing the display of content on an electronic rollable device (600). According to certain aspects, the systems and methods facilitate communications and applications of a rollable device with a display screen interface. The device detects an interaction with the display screen interface by a user (605), such as the user grasping the device. From the interaction, the device identifies a position of the user'"'"'s hand and, based on the position, a set of configuration settings, and/or other variables, determines a display region on the touchscreen to display a graphic (635) associated with the communications and applications. The device displays the graphic within the display region and receives and processes input from the user.

18. An electronic device comprising:
-
a flexible display including a touch-sensitive layer; a processor configured to interface with the flexible display and perform operations comprising; receiving an indication of an incoming communication; displaying a notification of the incoming communication in a notification area along an outside surface of the flexible display, wherein the flexible display can be rolled to form the outside surface; changing a boundary location of the notification area on the outside surface while displaying the notification in the notification area; detecting an interaction by the user with the touch-sensitive layer; and in response to the detecting the interaction by the user, terminating the displaying of the notification along the outside surface; identifying, from the interaction, a position of a hand of the user, determining, based on the position of the hand, a display region on the flexible display to display a graphic, and displaying, within the display region, the graphic. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23)

24. A method in an electronic device, the electronic device being rolled with a touchscreen as an outside surface, the method comprising:
-
receiving, at the electronic device, an indication of an incoming communication; displaying a notification of the incoming communication in a notification area along the outside surface of the touchscreen; changing a boundary location of the notification area on the outside surface while displaying the notification in the notification area; detecting a tactile interaction by the user via the touchscreen; and in response to the detecting the interaction by the user, terminating the displaying of the notification along the outside surface; identifying an area of the touchscreen defined by the tactile interaction; determining, by a processor based on the area defined by the tactile interaction, a display region on the outside surface of the touchscreen to display a graphic; and displaying, within the display region, the graphic. - View Dependent Claims (25, 26)
