  • Publication number: 20070266335
    Abstract: A system and method for providing a standard user interface (UI) across disparate display interfaces is disclosed. The technology initially determines a scaling factor for a UI containing a plurality of elements. The technology also establishes a reflow characteristic of the plurality of elements within the UI. The technology additionally provides a scrollbar characteristic for the UI. In so doing, the reflow characteristic is utilized when the scaling factor results in a UI that does not fit on a display interface.
