ABSTRACT:
A graphical user interface display window configurations containing user-readable data and is implemented by a software presentation system. The software presentation system automatically adjusts window size and positioning in accordance with window environment changes (e.g. changes in user readable data and/or window resolution). The method includes the steps of: establishing through operation of the presentation system, a display including windows with user-readable data; detecting a change in window environment; responding automatically to the change in window environment to determine windows in the display that require a size adjustment; recalculating the size of each window that requires adjustment; and operating a layout routine to reposition windows in the display in accordance with predetermined spacing and positioning parameters.
