Abstract
A user may interact with a control interface in the course of interacting with electronic content. The control interface may include any user interface utilized to adjust various aspects of an application, including, but not limited to, scroll bars, sliders, and/or navigation windows. Input at the control interface may be received from the user indicating that the user desires to manipulate the electronic content (e.g., jump to another location in a movie) or, alternatively, that the user wishes to manipulate the control interface. Upon determining that the input is intended to manipulate the control interface, the control interface may be adjusted to display a control interface view that provides finer or coarser granularity, allowing the user to interact with the control interface with more accuracy.
