Abstract
In a method for displaying information arranged in lists, a portion of a list is displayed in a display area, which includes a plurality of list entries, multiple elements being associated at least in part with the list entries, the displayed portion of the list being modifiable by a scrolling action such that previous and subsequent list entries are displayable in succession, and, when a list entry is selected, this list entry is displayed together with at least a portion of the elements that are associated with the list entry. If a selected list entry is displayed together with at least a portion of the elements associated with the selected list entry and the scrolling action is performed, first previous or subsequent elements are displayed in succession and thereupon list entries preceding or following the selected list entry are displayed. A device is configured for implementing the method.
