Filed:

Oct 30, 1997
Appl. No.:

8/961373
Inventors:

Girish V. Prabhu - Fairport NY
Walter C. Bubie - Rochester NY
Assignee:

Eastman Kodak Company - Rochester NY
International Classification:

G06F 314
US Classification:

345337
Abstract:

A graphical system interfaces user selections with an image capture device by means of a series of display screens produced by a processor and presented to the user on a display device. After initiating a setup process for establishing an image capture, a graphical interface is generated including a plurality of display screens that establish an intuitive setup procedure for an inexperienced user. More specifically, the interface is based on a progressive disclosure of the screens, in particular by representing one or more screens with user accessible icons, such as file tabs on file folders, which are expandable into additional screens according to user intervention. Thereupon, user interaction with, e. g. , a selected tab of a selected file folder produces two or more additional folders related to the selected tab.
