Patent ID: 8904306

Claim:
One or more computer-readable media having computer-useable instructions embodied thereon for performing a method of scrolling at variable speeds through a list of items that are presented on a display of an electronics device, the method comprising: displaying a portion of the list of items on the display, wherein each item within the list of items is associated with a visible line to form a set of visible lines which converge toward a dynamically adjustable single point, wherein the set of visible lines provides a visual indication of a placement of the displayed portion relative to the list of items; receiving an indication from the user that indicates a scroll action to scroll through the list of items with the associated visible lines, wherein the indication includes a starting point and an ending point that are in a certain portion of the display; based on the certain portion of the display and a position of the dynamically adjustable single point in relation to the list of items, determining a speed to scroll through the list of items, wherein a variance of available speeds to scroll through the list of items is proportionally related to a distance the dynamically adjustable single point is from the list of items; and scrolling through the list of items at the determined speed.
