Zusammenfassung:The invention provides a method for human-computer interaction on a graphical user interface (GUI), a GUI, a navigation tool, computers and computer operated devices. The method includes the steps of: determining coordinates of a pointer with, or relative, to an input device; determining coordinates of interactive objects of which at least two objects are displayed; establishing a threshold in relation to the interactive objects and in relation to space about them; prioritizing the interactive objects in relation to their distance and/or direction to the pointer; moving the interactive objects and thresholds relative to the object priority; repeating the above steps every time the coordinates of the pointer changes; and performing an action when a threshold is reached.
