A method is provided for causing a display of at least one content item and for enabling movement of the at least one content item. The method also causes a portion of the at least one content item to be highlighted relative to another portion of the at least one content item while the at least one content item is being moved. The portion of the at least one content item may be highlighted in various manners including by changing the brightness of the portion, applying a graphical effect to the portion and/or causing movement of the portion, such as by zooming the portion of the at least one content item. A corresponding apparatus and computer program product are also provided.

A system, method and non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium are disclosed for implementing dynamic layout rules for attributed text strings having different type styles. In some implementations, developers can use an Application Programming Interface (API) or a design tool to specify dynamic text layout rules for rendering attributed text strings in a user interface (UI). Various text attributes associated with the different type styles (e.g., font metrics) are dynamically adjusted based on the dynamic text layout rules to improve the readability of the text when, for example, font sizes are adjusted. In some implementations, one or more parameters of a text container, text container region, line-fragment or display object are dynamically adjusted based on the dynamic text layout rules to improve the readability of the text.

A processor may receive a request to display descriptive information for a location of interest on a device. The processor may retrieve a first set of attributes for the location of interest and compare the retrieved set of attributes to a second set of attributes for a location associated with the device. The processor may reduce the first set of attributes to a reduced set of attributes comprising attributes that are different from the attributes in the second set of attributes. The processor may cause the device to display the reduced set of attributes.
