Abstract

While user interface objects that correspond to different applications are concurrently displayed at respective depths, with a background located behind the user interface objects visible via a display, a user input including a movement is detected. In response to the user input, if the input is directed to a first user interface object and the movement meets first criteria, the computer system maintains display of the second user interface object while the background remains visible, and ceases to display the first user interface object; and if the input is directed to the second user interface object and the movement meets first criteria, the computer system maintains display of the first user interface object while the background remains visible, and ceases to display the second user interface object.
