Causation of Expansion of a Supplemental Content Overlay

摘要

A method comprising causing display of a visual representation of content that comprises a link to supplemental content, receiving an indication of a selection initiation input associated with the link, determining that a first threshold duration has elapsed subsequent to the receipt of the selection initiation input, causing display of a supplemental content overlay that comprises a visual representation of a first portion of the supplemental content such that the supplemental content overlay has a first size, determining that a second threshold duration has elapsed subsequent to the receipt of the selection initiation input, and causing expansion of the supplemental content overlay such that the overlay has a second size that is larger than the first size, the supplemental content overlay comprising a visual representation of the first portion of the supplemental content and a second portion of the supplemental content is disclosed.

主权项

1. An apparatus, comprising:
at least one processor; at least one memory including computer program code, the memory and the computer program code configured to, working with the processor, cause the apparatus to perform at least the following: cause display of a visual representation of content that comprises a link to supplemental content; receive an indication of a selection initiation input associated with the link; determine that a first threshold duration has elapsed subsequent to the receipt of the selection initiation input absent receipt of a selection termination input; in response to the determination that the first threshold duration has elapsed, cause display of a supplemental content overlay that comprises a visual representation of a first portion of the supplemental content such that the supplemental content overlay has a first size and overlays at least a portion of the content; determine that a second threshold duration has elapsed subsequent to the receipt of the selection initiation input absent receipt of a selection termination input; and in response to the determination that the second threshold duration has elapsed, cause expansion of the supplemental content overlay such that the overlay has a second size that is larger than the first size, the supplemental content overlay comprising a visual representation of the first portion of the supplemental content and a second portion of the supplemental content.
