Computer controlled user interactive display interfaces with three-dimensional control buttons

摘要

A virtual three-dimensional user interactive control button comprising a first face in a first of said three dimensions including a first user interactive element enabling a user to select a first function; a second face in a second of said three dimensions including a second user interactive element enabling a user to select a second function; and a third face in a third of said three dimensions including a third user interactive element enabling a user to select a third function. By combining such sets of three interactive elements, such as icons, into unitary compact and concise control buttons, considerable display space is conserved. Also, if the functions of the combined elements are related to each other, there is a considerable improvement in the organization of the display workspace.
