Abstract
A computer device displays some amount of an electronic document which includes an object. The object correlates with both a first and second portion of the electronic document. The first and second portions are different. The device detects a first input gesture which is located within a predetermined distance of the object. The first portion is determined to correlate with both the object and the first input gesture. In response to determining this correlation, the first portion is displayed. After displaying the first portion, the device detects a second input gesture. The second input gesture is within the predetermined distance of the same object. The second input gesture includes a different motion than the first input gesture. The device determines that the second portion correlates with both the object and the second gesture. In response to this determination, the second portion is displayed.

9. A computer system comprising:
-
a display; a memory; and one or more processing circuits communicatively coupled to the memory and to the display, wherein the one or more processing circuits are configured to; direct the display to display an object within an electronic document, wherein the object correlates with both a first portion of the electronic document and a second portion of the electronic document, wherein the first portion and the second portion are different; detect a first input gesture located within a predetermined distance of the object; determine that the first portion of the electronic document correlates with both the object and the first input gesture; direct the display to display the first portion of the electronic document in response to detecting the first input gesture within the predetermined distance of the object; detect a second input gesture located within the predetermined distance of the object, wherein the second input gesture includes a different motion than the first input gesture; determine that the second portion of the electronic document correlates with both the object and the second input gesture; and direct the display to display the second portion of the electronic document in response to detecting the second input gesture within the predetermined distance of the object. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
