Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A device may display a presentation of elements (e.g., icons) on a display component. However, display components have a pixel density that affects aesthetic and practical aspects of the presentation (e.g., rendering the presentation at a variable and inconsistent size); yet, many presentations are not generated in view of the pixel density of the display component of the device. Presented herein are techniques for generating and displaying a presentation of elements in view of the pixel density of the display component, using a scale factor set of scale factors that specify a pixel density range and a scale factor value (e.g., 120%) to be applied to the elements of the presentation. The scale factor set may be kept small to reduce the administrative burden on the designer of the element, while also achieving approximately consistent sizing of the presentation on display components having variable pixel densities.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method of generating, using a device having a processor and an operating system, a presentation of an application comprising elements to be displayed on a display component, the method comprising: executing on the processor instructions that cause the operating system to: identify a pixel density of the display component; for respective elements of the presentation: from a scale factor set comprising at least two scale factors that are respectively ass…
