A method for manipulating notes on a screen of a computer display characterized by: (a) generating an initial note area; (b) dividing the initial note area into a plurality of note areas in response to at least one division gesture implemented by a pointing device, where each division gesture creates a header bar, including function buttons, on the computer display which visually separates two adjacent note areas; (c) modifying the size of a selected note area in response to a sizing gesture made to a header bar; and (d) scrolling in at least one note area in response to a scrolling command. Step (b) includes the steps of detecting a division gesture made on the computer screen by a pointing device, and then creating a header bar at a location indicated by the division gesture. Step (c) includes the steps of detecting the selection of a header bar with a pointing device, detecting a subsequent sizing gesture made by the pointing device, and moving the header bar as indicated by the sizing gesture. Step (d) includes the steps of detecting a scrolling command, and scrolling the note areas in a direction indicated by the scrolling command such that the note areas move in a quantized fashion.

A method for generating header divider indicia of note areas on a computer display comprising: detecting a division gesture on a screen of a computer display as implemented by moving a pointing means across the width of the display such that a left edge of the division gesture is within a first defined distance of a left side of said computer display and a right edge of the division gesture is within a second defined distance of a right side of said computer display, wherein the division gesture is made in a horizontal motion having a slope of less than a predefined slope value; and generating a divider indicia header bar on said display as indicated by said division gesture, said divider indicia header bar visually separating two adjacent note areas and including one or more header function buttons specifying a command to be taken on a note associated with the divider indicia, wherein saw note areas have arbitrary sizes at least initially delimited by the division gestures, and wherein the note areas may be scrolled such that they are sequentially displayed in response to a scrolling command.
