ABSTRACT:
Display surfaces such as catalog items, for example, are displayed in one-dimensional order in a corridor perspective which may be based on one or more points. An input-initiated, processor-controlled dollying effect facilitates visual access, navigation, and browsing to the display surfaces. Within a surface, an input-initiated panning option can be provided, and the scale at which a surface is displayed can be changed. Input may be via a mouse, a light pen, a touch-sensitive screen, a keyboard, a track ball, a touch pad, or voice-activated control.
