Patent attributes
Techniques for perspective-preserving seamless application switching are disclosed. A system may display a first interface using a first application. The first interface includes interface elements representing a plurality of objects. The system may detect a zoom-in command, received by the first application, requesting a particular zoom level for a first interface element, corresponding to a first object in the first plurality of objects. The system may determine that the requested zoom level exceeds a threshold. Responsive to determining that the requested zoom level exceeds the threshold, the system may display, using a second application, a second interface corresponding to the first object. The second interface may include one or more of: (a) characteristics associated with the first object that were not displayed by the first application, or (b) user input elements for executing operations associated with the first object that were not displayed by the first application.
