Abstract

See full text

A method operates a device that includes a display device, a user interface device, and a processor connected to the display device and the user interface device. The processor connected to the display device receives a user input defining a line on the display device; detects one or more direction changes in the received user input of the defined line; and defines a line segment according to the detected direction changes, where a length of the line segment is a distance between a start of the defined line and a first detected direction change. One or more processors segment a time period into multiple time segments, where each time segment corresponds in length to the defined line segment. The display device then displays the segmented time period on the defined line segment.
