摘要 |
Computer content navigation tools and associated methods are disclosed. One aspect of the invention is directed toward a computer-implemented method for providing content navigation information that includes displaying a navigation tool that proportionally represents a range of locations in a displayable content set. The method can further include displaying one or more anchors proximate to the navigation tool. Each anchor can correspond to a portion of the content set. The position of the anchors relative to the navigation tool can visually represent the displayable location of the corresponding portions relative to one another. In certain embodiments, the method can further include displaying a location marker proximate to the navigation tool and displaying at least one navigation arrow when a cursor is positioned proximate to a selected area of a display. When the cursor is no longer proximate to the selected area, the navigation arrow(s) can be removed.
