A graphical user interface uses scroll bars having a single pixel width and a much larger scroll button or thumb. Both the scroll bar and the scroll button may be controlled to have selective degrees of transparency so that they underlying image information may be seen under certain conditions. In one application, the scroll bar itself is invisible until a cursor approaches to within a specified proximity. The graphical user interface permit scroll bars to be displayed which follow an arbitrary path in either two or three dimensions. |
