A method of display with a graphical user interface includes arranging selectable
navigation points along a line configured on a display screen. In some embodiments,
the selectable points correspond to pieces of information to be displayed, such
that selection of a selectable point causes the corresponding piece of information
to be displayed. The selectable points may be arranged along the line according
to a priority sequence of the corresponding pieces of information. In other embodiments,
the selectable points correspond to functions useful in using an application program.
Selection of a selectable point in this embodiment causes the corresponding function
to be executed. The line with selectable navigation points may therefore be used
in place of other display tools such as toolbars or pull-down menus, and may allow
rapid selection of desired options, commands, or information while using a minimum
amount of screen space.
