Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method and apparatus for changing the screen display of a mobile terminal. Here are the key points:

  • The method involves displaying a page on the mobile terminal, which includes an index region with multiple indices and a content region that displays content corresponding to the highlighted index.
  • The user can select a new index from the index region using a selection input.
  • Upon selecting a new index, the page represented by the highlighted index is changed to a new page represented by the newly selected index.
  • The new page appears in a direction from the position of the new index to the position of the highlighted index.

Potential applications of this technology:
