Autoscroll Regions

摘要

Technologies are described herein for autoscroll regions. A device establishes a trigger line near an edge of a selectable region of content that is adjacent to a non-selectable region of content. The device detects user input within the selectable region and detects movement of the user input that intersects the trigger line. In response to detecting the user input intersecting the trigger line, the device scrolls a scrollable region.

1. A computer-implemented method for scrolling a user interface comprising a scrollable region having one or more selectable regions and one or more non-selectable regions, wherein each of the one or more selectable regions lies adjacent to one or more of the one or more non-selectable regions, the method comprising:
detecting user input within a first selectable region of the one or more selectable regions; determining whether an edge of the scrollable region interfaces a visible portion of the first selectable region; in response to determining that the edge of the scrollable region interfaces the visible portion of the first selectable region, establishing a trigger line at the edge of the scrollable region; in response to determining that the edge of the scrollable region does not interface the visible portion of the first selectable region, establishing a trigger line near an edge of the first selectable region, the edge being directly adjacent to a non-selectable region of the one or more non-selectable regions; detecting movement of the user input that intersects the trigger line; and scrolling the scrollable region in response to detecting movement of the user input within the first selectable region that intersects the trigger line.
