Abstract:
One or more processors create a first scrollable user interface display including content that is scrollable in at least a first direction in response to user input. The processor(s) receive a first user input including an indication of a first portion of the content which is less than all of the content. In response to the receipt of the first user input, the processor(s) create a second scrollable user interface display, where content on the second user interface display is scrollable in at least the first direction except for the first portion of the content which is pinned such that it does not scroll when the rest of the content scrolls. Responsive to the receipt of a second user input, the processor(s) scroll content in the first direction except for the first portion of the content which remains pinned and does not scroll.
