Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Systems and methods are provides for adjusting focus during an orientation change. A window is displayed on a single display before the orientation change. After the device is oriented in the landscape orientation, the window expands into a full screen window being displayed on two displays. Further, the focus is changed to the window. And, a configurable area associated with at least one screen that displays the full screen window is changed to display the configurable area on the screen that is at the top of the device.
