ABSTRACT:
A window frame pointing method is used for pointing a window frame out of multiple window frames contained within a window interface by using a mouse. The content of the window interface will automatically be scrolled if the pointed window frame is not displayed over a monitor screen. The mouse comprises a two dimensional control button for generating a two dimensional pointing signal. The window interface is controlled by a window software which comprises a frame control module for controlling the pointing of a window frame according to the pointing signal. The method comprises: providing a frame position file which contains position of each window frame contained within the window interface, actuating the control button to generate a pointing signal, detecting a position of a window frame contained in the frame position file starting from the position of a currently pointed window frame approximately along the direction of the pointing signal, and designating and displaying the detected window frame as a pointed window frame over the monitor screen.
