Abstract:
1. A machine-implemented method comprising: detecting a first user input at a first location on a user interface (UI) presented on a display screen, the first user input being detected at least proximate to an arrangement of four visual controls, the four visual controls arranged in a two-by-two grid on the UI to establish the arrangement, the four visual controls each respectively being presented on the UI prior to the detecting of the first user input such that they are each presented in at least one dimension that is smaller than the same respective dimension of all other visual controls presented on the UI other than the four visual controls of the arrangement; identifying the four visual controls as at least being proximate to the detected first location; and presenting a magnification interface on the UI such that the magnification interface is overlaid on the area of the UI on which the four visual controls were presented prior to the detecting of the first user input, the magnification interface overlaid over at least a portion of at least one other area of the UI presenting at least one other visual control than the four visual controls of the arrangement, the magnification interface including a larger rendition of the four visual controls relative to their respective rendition on the UI prior to the detecting of the first user input.
