Abstract

See full text

A reduced complexity user interface is described. In an embodiment, a user interface module causes an animation of a pile of objects on a user interface display. The pile of objects is configured to expand from a contracted form when a pointer approaches a boundary of the pile on the user interface display. The user interface module is configured to determine two closest objects in the pile of objects that correspond with the pointer on the user interface display and to move the two closest objects to the pointer to visually indicate an insertion point into the pile. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
