Abstract

Provided are devices and methods for generating a view tile for a user interface. In one example, the method may include generating a top image layer comprising a plurality of transparent segments which are capable of representing a plurality of values based on which of the plurality of transparent segments are filled in with a color, generating a background color layer including the color, and overlaying the top image layer on the background color layer to generate a view tile representing a value from among the plurality of values. The generated view tile may provide a quick overview of an item with only a glance without requiring the viewer to read information in detail allowing the viewer to provide their attention to other activities.
