Speed dependent displaying of information items in a graphical user interface

Abstract

An apparatus with a graphical user interface includes a processor, a display screen coupled to said processor, and a navigational input device coupled to said processor. The processor is configured to display a plurality of information items on the display screen, position the information items on the display screen as a string of information items along a path, move the string of information items along said path in response to input from said navigational input device, and change a shape of said path in relation to a speed at which the string of information items moves along the path by including only straight sections at zero speed of movement of the string of information items and including one or more curves at increased speeds of movement of the string of information items.

1 . An apparatus with a graphical user interface, said apparatus comprising:
 a processor;   a display screen coupled to said processor;   a navigational input device coupled to said processor;   wherein the processor is configured to:
 display a plurality of information items on the display screen; 
 position the information items on the display screen as a string of information items along a path; 
 move the string of information items along said path in response to input from said navigational input device; and 
 change a shape of said path in relation to a speed at which the string of information items moves along the path by including only straight sections at zero speed of movement of the string of information items and including one or more curves at increased speeds of movement of the string of information items.
