A display system for a vehicle is provided. The display system includes a display device, and control circuitry that is coupled to a user input device and the display device. The control circuitry controls the display device to display a user interface (UI) having a UI element and changes a first opacity level of a first mode text for an outgoing mode of the vehicle, up to a first value so as to mask the first mode text within the UI element. The control circuitry further controls the display device to change a second opacity level of a second mode text for an incoming mode of the vehicle, up to a second value so as to unmask the second mode text within the UI element.

Display system for mode information display

A display system and a method for display control of a gauge graphic is provided. The display system controls the display device to display the gauge graphic. The gauge graphic includes a scale and a needle movable on the scale. The scale includes a first region and a second region. The display system detects a first movement of the needle beyond a first threshold marking on the scale and towards an end of the first region and controls the display device to gradually unmask a first gradation pattern in the second region based on the detected first movement. The display system further detects a second movement of the needle over the second region and controls the display device to change the unmasked first gradation pattern so that the unmasked first gradation pattern flashes with a defined frequency in the second region based on the detected second movement.
