Abstract

A computer-implemented user interface method includes receiving a first user selection at a first location on a graphically-displayed object on a graphical user interface, receiving a subsequent user selection, separate from the first user selection, at a second location on the graphically-displayed object, determining a relative orientation between the first location and the second location, and zooming on the graphically-displayed object centered on a point that is along a line between the first location and the second location. A direction of the zooming is determined from the relative orientation of the first location to the second location.
