Abstract

Methods and system directed to displaying title bars at a display of a large-format display are provided. More specifically, the methods and systems enable a large-format display, which may be touch-enabled, to detect where a user is interacting with the display and to provide interactive controls in an accessible location to the user. For instance, the display may detect that a user is interacting with a particular quadrant of the display based on a user gesture on or near the display, based on a user interaction with an application window on a portion of the display, based on sensor detection of a user position relative to the display, or other suitable method of detection. Accordingly, the large-format display may provide interactive controls based on the detected quadrant, gesture location, or other interaction with an application window.
