The first menu includes a virtual touches selection icon. In response to detecting selection of the virtual touches selection icon, the electronic device displays a menu of virtual multitouch contacts.

Abstract: In some implementations, a computing device can present dynamic graphical user interface previews of an application on a display of the computing device. For example, cached graphical user interface (GUI) content can be dynamically generated in response to receiving application data update information for the corresponding application. The computing device can dynamically determine a portion of the cached GUI content to present on a display of the computing device. For example, the cached GUI content can be an image that is larger than the display of the computing device. The computing device can generate a GUI preview based a portion of the cached GUI content that fits on the display of the computing device based on an indication of which portion of the cached GUI content the user wishes to view and present the preview on the display of the computing device.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for the efficient display of hierarchical datasets using high-water mark scrolling. Certain techniques allow for the creation of simple, intuitive, and computationally inexpensive user interfaces for displaying hierarchical data sets. According to some embodiments, a defined number of items of a hierarchical list are presented in a hierarchical user interface module. This defined number of items may be referred to as a “high-water mark” value. When one of the items having associated child items (that are not currently displayed) is selected, one or more presented items in the hierarchical list are replaced with a corresponding one or more of the child items, thus maintaining a same number of displayed list items (i.e., the high-water mark number of displayed list items).
