Abstract: A method and medium are provided for presenting virtualized visible content within a viewport in a user interface. An anchor is received that represents a point on a line of virtualized visible content and a target value is received that represents a location in a viewport of a user interface. The anchor and target values can be received from user input devices or by analyzing the position of a scroll thumb relative to a scroll trough in the user interface. A first line of virtualized visible content that corresponds to the anchor value is realized by loading the line into memory from another source. The line is then positioned in the viewport based on the target value. Additional lines surrounding the first line are realized until the viewport is full. Lines that are not visible in the viewport can be unrealized, thus conserving computing resources.

Abstract: A multimedia play menu is generated into an auto playgroup organizer system for a multimedia player by using intelligence cursor/scroll sequence functions programmed for operation by an input device such as a hand-held mobile mouse. The intelligence cursor/scroll can sense any type of digitalized item or symbol displayed on the LED or LCD screen of the multimedia player. When the intelligence cursor/scroll function senses a click/press sequence symbol representing the position of a song, it will start to carry out a click/press sequence function as a user wishes. The more clicks/presses are applied by the intelligence cursor/scroll on the sequence symbol before a song/item, the higher the position for that song/item is created, analyzed, recorded and carried out.
