Abstract: A system and machine-implemented method for providing a visual cue of overscrolling displayed content on an electronic device. When the end of a scrollable page or content has been reached, the visual cue corresponds to the user's physical scrolling input. The content in the window is effectively attached to the window so that when the end of the content is reached in one direction, the window containing the content is pulled in the same scrolling direction. The pulling in the scrolling direction occurs in a logarithmically decreasing manner, providing a tactile-like visual effect that the outer frame of the window is resisting the attempt to scroll further in the scrolling direction. The visual resistance effect may include squishing or stretching portions of the window without distorting the content within the window.

Abstract translation: 一种用于在电子设备上提供显示内容过卷动的视觉提示的系统和机器实现的方法。 当到达可滚动页面或内容的结尾时，视觉提示对应于用户的物理滚动输入。 窗口中的内容实际上被附加到窗口，使得当在一个方向上到达内容的结尾时，包含内容的窗口被拉向相同的滚动方向。 滚动方向的拉动以对数递减的方式发生，提供了触觉式的视觉效果，使得窗口的外框架抵抗在滚动方向上进一步滚动的尝试。 视觉效果可以包括挤压或拉伸窗户的部分而不会使窗内的内容变形。
