Abstract

A panorama display application shows objects from a spreadsheet such as charts in primary screen of a mobile device adjoined by left and right virtual screens. The application overlays interaction controls such as sort and filter functions on the object. The application also provides additional interaction controls for the object on the left virtual screen and associated objects links on the right virtual screen. The application may expose the additional interaction controls and the associated objects links by overlaying portions of the virtual screens on the primary screen. The application fluidly shifts content from virtual screens to the primary screen subsequent to detected user action on the overlaid portions.
