Abstract

See full text

A method of displaying graphical information using a 'lenticular-like' interface is described. With a 'lenticular-like' interface, the viewer is made aware that additional, usually complementary information is available besides that which is currently foregrounded in the display. This is accomplished by displaying a small but characteristic portion of the actual secondary field. In another embodiment the dominant field is made to look like a lenticular lens, which suggests to the user that a slight shift in view will bring the secondary field to the foreground. With a 'lenticular-like' interface, this shift is accomplished by moving the cursor from one edge of the display field to the other edge.
