Abstract:
A computing device including a graphical user interface is described. The computing device comprises: a display; a display controller; and a graphical user interface controller. The graphical user interface controller is arranged to create a first and second cluster of associated menu options. The first cluster of associated menu options comprises: a first principal menu option and at least one first sub-ordinate menu option, smaller than the first principal menu option, and located on the periphery of the first principal menu option. The second cluster of associated menu options comprises: a second principal menu option and at least one second sub-ordinate menu option smaller than the second principal menu option, and located on the periphery of the second principal menu option. The graphical user interface controller is also arranged to enable a user (a) to decouple the first sub-ordinate menu option from the first principal menu option and (b) to couple the decoupled the first sub-ordinate menu option to the second principal menu option.
