    Abstract: An electronic device displays a radial menu including a first sequence of selectable options that extends off an edge of the display so that a first portion of the first sequence of selectable options is displayed while a second portion of the first sequence of selectable options is not displayed. The radial menu also includes a first selection region at a first fixed location on the radial menu. While a first option in the first sequence of selectable options is displayed in the first selection region of the radial menu, the electronic device detects an option-selection input associated with the radial menu. Responsive to detecting the option-selection input, the electronic device slides the first sequence of selectable options around the perimeter of the radial menu so that the first option is moved out of the first selection region and a second option is moved into the first selection region.
