摘要:
The invention relates to an oven, especially to a domestic oven, which has a control panel comprising a user interface (1) for inputting data (D) into the control panel, wherein the user interface (1) comprises: at least one display element (2) for displaying data, wherein data (D) can be displayed on the display element (2) at a location (Z) on the display element (2) at a predetermined first axial position (x) and a predetermined second axial position (y), wherein the direction of the first (x) and of the second (y) axial positions are perpendicular to another, selecting means (3, 4) for selecting the location (Z) on the display element (2) by selecting or pretending a definite first (x) and second (y) position for a cursor (5), wherein at least one of the selecting means (3, 4) are established as a slider element extending in a longitudinal direction (L) and having a surface (6) sensitive for touching with a finger (7) of the user, wherein a control unit is arranged to position the cursor (5) in a position or direction (x, y) on the display element (2) in dependence on the location or movement of the finger (7) on the slider element (3, 4) in the longitudinal direction (L). By this an improved interaction between the user and the oven becomes possible. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for selecting and inputting an information into the control panel of the oven.

On-screen help with contextual shortcut on an appliance The invention relates to an appliance (100) with a user interface (110) comprising a display (111) for showing indications about conditions in the appliance, and first (112, 114) and second (113) touch-sensitive input means. The second input means causes the interface to enter an assistance mode displaying which assistance items, which a processing means (121) extracts from a collection (122) of assistance information based on the content of the display when the assistance mode is invoked. In one embodiment, a data record ensures that the user returns to the same page after consulting the assistance mode. In another embodiment, the appliance is adapted to update the collection of assistance information on the basis of data received at an external communication interface. In another embodiment, the display reacts differently to short and long activations of a given touch-sensitive input means. In another embodiment, the display includes parallax compensation.

A home appliance has a control field (A) for selecting and setting a program and program option. The control field includes: a plurality of program indicators (2.1-2.5) each having an associated program symbol (2.1a-2.5a), a plurality of program option indicators (4.1-4.5, 6.1-6.4, 8.1-8.4) each having an associated program option symbol (4.1a-4.5a, 6.1a-6.4a, 8.1a-8.4a), a user-operable program selector (2), and a plurality of user-operable program option selectors (4, 6, 8). The program selector (2) and the program option selectors (4, 6, 8) are arranged in an inner region (II) of the control field (A). The program indicators (2.1-2.5) and program option indicators (4.1-4.5, 6.1-6.4, 8.1-8.4) are arranged in a first region (III) at least partially surrounding the inner region (II). The program symbols and the program option symbols are arranged in a second region (IV) at least partially surrounding the first region (III). At least one program symbol (2.1a-2.5a) is assigned to and arranged proximate to each one of the program indicators (2.1-2.5), and at least one program option symbol (4.1a-4.5a, 6.1a-6.4a, 8.1a-8.4a) is assigned to and arranged proximate to each one of the program option indicators (4.1-4.5, 6.1-6.4, 8.1-8.4).
