ABSTRACT:
A user interface component and method of using the same navigate across a boundary coupled to a scroll bar display element only after user input to move a user control at least a predetermined distance beyond the boundary is received. A boundary may be defined within a scroll bar display element, or may be defined between a scroll bar display element and another display element (such as another scroll bar display element). By preventing navigation of a boundary until a predetermined distance beyond such boundary has been crossed, inadvertent user input which would otherwise result in accidental navigation of a boundary is disregarded.
