ABSTRACT:
A process for a virtual windows desktop system visually organizing multiple computer application objects on a computer screen comprising the steps of: 1) providing for a virtual display with application objects arranged thereon and having a virtual area larger than the screen when the application objects are resolvable on the screen; 2) providing for a physical display for displaying the application objects; 3) locating the physical display at a position corresponding to at least one of the application objects on the virtual display; 4) viewing the application object through the physical display; and 5) moving the physical display or a larger group of application objects in one single, continuous movement or one discreet movement anywhere on the virtual display. The process extends the windows work area within the virtual display area, beyond the physical limitations of the system's display devices.
