METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR GENERATING A VISUAL REPRESENTATION OF OBJECT TIMELINES IN A MULTIMEDIA USER INTERFACE

摘要

A method and an apparatus for generating a visual representation of object timelines in a multimedia user interface by illustrating time information, associated with a moving object that needs to be displayed, directly over a motion path of the moving object by assigning and displaying color-values on a time-line of the moving object and displaying corresponding colors on the motion-path are provided. The method includes presenting an object through a display operatively coupled with an electronic device, presenting a first visual indicator that relates time information associated with a motion of the object with a motion path of the object, and presenting a timeline associated with the time information. Here a visual property of the first visual indicator matches a visual property of the second visual indicator in relation with the time information.
