Abstract

A control window for navigating and implementing menu selections in a multiple level hierarchical menu is provided having a first zone displaying a list of the selection levels and a second zone displaying a list of the selection options within a selection level. The second zone is refreshed with selections for another selection level in the menu hierarchy in response to a user implementation or registration of a selection option at the originally displayed selection level. Preset default settings in all selection levels permit the user to implement a "fast path"
hierarchical menu selection.

Claims (20)

1. In a computer system having a display screen, a user interface mechanism for hierarchical menu selections comprising:

a zoned menu control window including a first zone displaying indicators representing a plurality of selection levels in a menu hierarchy, and a second zone having contents comprising a displayed list of selection options for one of said selection levels;

means for entering an option selected from said displayed list of selection options;

means for refreshing the contents of the second zone by replacing the displayed list of selection options with a second list of selection options for a different selection level in response to entry of an option selected from said displayed list of selection options; and registration means for implementing a computer task on selection of options for all selection levels in the menu hierarchy.
2. A computer system, according to Claim 1, wherein the means for refreshing the contents of the second zone comprises replacing the displayed list of selection options with a second list of selection options for an inferior selection level in the menu hierarchy.
3. A computer system, according to Claim 1, further comprising:

means for verifying inferior selection levels in the menu hierarchy in response to entry of an option selected from said displayed list of selection options;

a task implementation indicator linkable to said registration means; and means for linking said task implementation indicator and registration means in response to a failure to verify inferior selection levels in the menu hierarchy, whereby to permit engagement of the registration means through the task implementation indicator.
4. A computer system, according to Claim 1, wherein the indicators displayed in the first zone comprise a plurality of pushbuttons, each pushbutton correlating to a separate selection level in the menu hierarchy.
5. A computer system, according to Claim 4, wherein the pushbuttons are ranked from superior to inferior levels in the menu hierarchy.
6. A computer system, according to Claim 1, wherein the second field comprises a scrolled listbox.
7. A computer system, according to Claim 6, wherein the second zone further comprises a title field containing a displayed title identifying said one selection level, and wherein the means for refreshing the contents of the second zone replaces the displayed title with a second title for said different selection level.
8. A computer system, according to Claim 1, wherein the menu control window further comprises a third zone containing a text field adapted to display the options selected for each selection level in the menu hierarchy.
9. A computer system, according to Claim 1, further comprising means for setting default selection values in several selection levels of the menu hierarchy.
10. A computer system, according to Claim 9, wherein the means for setting default selection values sets default selection values for all levels in the menu hierarchy in response to initiation of the menu control window.
11. A computer system, according to Claim 9, wherein the means for setting default selection values are programmable.
12. A computer system, according to Claim 9, wherein the second zone further comprises a movable focus bar for highlighting a single selection option in the displayed list, the focus bar being linked to said means for entering an option, whereby to permit entry of a highlighted selection option.
13. A computer system, according to Claim 12, wherein the means for setting default selection values sets default selection values for all inferior levels in the menu hierarchy in response to movement of the focus bar on the displayed list of selection options.
14. A computer system, according to Claim 13, wherein the control window further comprises a third zone containing a text field adapted to display:

option selections entered for superior levels;

a highlighted selection option from the displayed list of selection options; and the default selection values for all inferior levels in the menu hierarchy.
15. A method of assembling and displaying a hierarchical selection menu on a computer display screen, comprising the computer implemented steps of:

creating a menu control window having at least a first and a second zone;

displaying in the first zone of the control window, a plurality of indicators, each indicator representing a separate selection level in a menu hierarchy;

displaying in the second zone of the control window, a list of selection options for one of said selection levels in the menu hierarchy; and in response to entry of an option from the displayed list of selection options, replacing the displayed list of selection options in the second zone with a second list of selection options for a different selection level in the menu hierarchy.
16. A method, according to Claim 15, further comprising, in response to entry of an option from the displayed list of selection options, the step of verifying inferior selection levels in the menu hierarchy, and displaying as the second list in the second zone, a list of selection options for an inferior selection level.
17. A method, according to Claim 15, further comprising the step of displaying options previously selected for any selection level in the menu hierarchy.
18. A method of assembling and displaying a hierarchical listing of menu selections made by a computer user, said method comprising:

displaying a menu control window having multiple zones;

displaying within a first zone in said menu control window, a list of levels of the menu hierarchy;

displaying within a second zone in said menu control window, a list of selection options for a highest level not yet selected in the menu hierarchy;

displaying options previously selected for any selection level in the menu hierarchy; and refreshing the second zone with a new listing of selection options from an immediately inferior selection level in the menu hierarchy in response to a user selection from the second zone.
19. A method, according to Claim 18, further comprising implementing a computer task in response to user registration of entry of all selection levels in the menu hierarchy.
20. A fast process for implementing selections through a menu hierarchy, comprising the computer implemented steps of:

setting default selection values for all selection levels in the menu hierarchy;

creating a zoned menu control window;

displaying in a first zone of said control window a plurality of indicators, each indicator setting forth the default selection value for a separate selection level in the menu hierarchy;

setting a movable default emphasis on one superior selection level having selection options;

displaying in a second zone a list of selection options for a selection level subject to the default emphasis; and implementing a computer task in response to user registration of selection of options for all selection levels in the menu hierarchy.
