Abstract
A display application rotates content to provide a perspective view along the z-axis during a scroll action as a feedback to a user indicating a scroll action has reached a beginning or an end of available content. Determined direction and speed and/or acceleration of the scroll action is applied to move content and rotate it based on: a tilt angle proportional to the speed and/or acceleration and a rotation axis perpendicular to the direction. Additional content is displayed in the perspective view based on the tilt angle. And, the tilt angle is adjusted to rotate the content in response to reaching an end of the content during the scroll action or upon detecting a subsequent scroll action.
