Abstract:
1. A method for selectively displaying a plurality of rooms with side bar slide animation, comprising: displaying content material in a page of said room; displaying page associated material in a side bar of said room; responsive to entering a room, executing a first slide animation of said page associated material such that said page associated material slides into said side bar from a first direction; and responsive to leaving said room, executing a second slide animation of said page associated material such that said page associated material slides out of said side bar in a direction different from said first direction; thereby creating a visual effect of entering and leaving an area represented by a panel wherein the visual effect creates a visual impression of entering and leaving said area via one or more of a horizontal and vertical sliding motion; wherein said first slide animation and said second slide animation are elements of an aesthetic set inherited from a parent room; wherein said side bar is configured to allow for said page associated material to slide, via said first slide animation, into said side bar; wherein said side bar is further configured to allow for said page associated material to slide, via said second slide animation, out of said side bar.
