Patent ID: 8520026

Claim:
A method comprising: a computing device displaying one of a set of M content items within a display graphic element of a graphical user interface, wherein a sequential ordering exists among the set of M content items; the computing device detecting a rotation of a digital object along a directional axis of rotation, said digital object having N outwardly facing adjacent sides, each of the N adjacent sides, referred to as N sides, sharing a single line segment with each of two adjacent ones of the N sides relative to the directional axis, wherein one of the M content items is displayed in the graphic element for one of the N sides, wherein only one of the M content items is displayed in the display graphic element at a time, wherein a quantity of M is different from a quantity of N; and the computing device, in response to the detected rotation of the digital object along the directional axis, displaying a different one of the M content items within the display graphic element in accordance with the sequential ordering, wherein each sequential increment of the N sides per the rotation along the directional axis results in a corresponding sequential increment through the set of M content items; and the computing device repeating the detecting of the rotation and the displaying of the different one of the M content items, wherein for N repetitions of the repeating, the same one of the N sides is shown since the same side has repeated due to a cycling through of the N outwardly facing adjacent sides of the digital object but a different M content item is displayed in the graphical element due to M being different than the quantity of N causing a cycle through the sequence of M to be discordant with a cycling through the N sides of the digital object.
