ABSTRACT:
Web pages are displayed with a simultaneous overview and magnified view. An indicator can show the portion of the overview in the magnified view. Both views can be shown, one above the other, across the full width of the same screen. A user can select between such a split view and another view, including an overview-only view, a magnified-only view, and a view in which selected text is laid out to fit the width of the magnified view. Navigational input can directly move the layout in the magnified view or the cursor, and can scroll both the overview and magnified view. The magnified view can display text with antialiased fonts designed for its resolution. The magnified view can be made to function like a magnifying glass. The width of text in multicolumn layouts can be limited to fit the width of a view window, such as the magnified-view.

Edward Porter, “Screen Shot of Three Microsoft Internet Explorer Windows Showing Same Portion of Web Page with Different Layouts”, created Sep. 16, 2005 on Mr. Porter's computer by opening three separate IE windows showing same web sites and manually varying window width and font size. The applicants believe this capability in IE to alter web pages layout by either altering font size or window width predates the earliest priority date in this application.
Edward Porter, “Screen Shot of Microsoft Word Displaying Portion of Text at Two Different Displayed Font Sizes”, created on Sep. 16, 2005 on Mr. Porter's computer by using the split box to open two panes in an MS Word view, scrolling the bottom pane so it showed same text as top pane, and increasing the magnification in the bottom pane while in normal view so the text in the bottom pane would re-flow across line boundaries. The applicants believe the capability in MS Word to alter layout on one pane in a split view by altering magnification predates the earliest priority date in this application.
