Abstract: Systems, methods and a graphical user interface are provided for enhancing a computing navigation device route directions view. A system is disclosed including a computing navigation device configured to identify a route for travel. The route includes one or more geographic locations along the route. The computing navigation device is further configured to receive media from a media service via a computer network, wherein each media includes associated geographic information indicating that the media relates to the one or more geographic locations. The computing navigation device is further configured to display the media in a route directions view of a graphical user interface.

Abstract: A computing navigation device is disclosed that includes a processor configured to control a communication module configured to receive a global positioning satellite (GPS) system signal corresponding to a vehicle position of a vehicle. The processor may be further configured to recognize a dropped signal condition in which no operational signal is detected from the GPS system, and to identify a last position of the vehicle corresponding to a time of the dropped signal condition. The processor may be further configured to retrieve on-board diagnostics data from an on-board diagnostics system of the vehicle corresponding with a movement of the vehicle. The computing navigation device may further include a kinematic module configured to calculate a calculated position of the vehicle based on the last position and the movement of the vehicle, and a display configured to display a representation of the calculated position.

Abstract: A method and system for automatically displaying content of a window on a display that has changed orientation is described. The content of a window, such as a dialog box, that has been authored for a particular size is repositioned and resized such that the window is viewable in its entirety when the display screen orientation is changed (e.g., from portrait to landscape.) A scroll bar is added to allow full access to content that is not visible within the display screen when necessary. Likewise, the scrollbar is removed when the scrollbar is no longer necessary in the new orientation. The repositioning and resizing of the window, as well as the addition or removal of the scrollbar occurs without interruption of other operating system applications.
