  • Publication number: 20050071786
    Abstract: Time and distance metrics are used to control when dynamic information represented by a visual representation to which a cursor points is displayed on a video display. A time metric is used to provide a non-negligible time delay between when the mouse cursor is initially pointing to the visual representation and when the information is displayed. This time delay prevents the user from receiving undesired information when the user inadvertently passes the mouse cursor over the visual representation. In addition, a distance metric is used to monitor the movement of the mouse cursor, so that the information is displayed when the mouse cursor remains within a predetermined distance of the visual representation during the time delay. This monitoring of movement of the mouse cursor provides the user with information even if the mouse cursor is inadvertently moved a predetermined distance.
