Abstract:
A window displayed on a user interface can be incrementally enlarged or reduced by selecting an appropriate sizing icon. There are provided an enlarge icon and a reduce icon in the window title bar. To resize the window, the user selects the appropriate icon with the cursor. The window will change its border size according to a predetermined incremental value. The data that is displayed inside of the newly sized window is determined and then displayed. By continuously selecting one of the sizing icons, the window will be continuously sized in an incremental manner until the user terminates the selection or until the maximum or minimum window limits are reached. As the window is resized, the cursor remains attached to the selected icon. During resizing of the window, one border corner is fixed in position on the interface while the opposite border corner is moved.
