Abstract

The invention relates to a method of selecting objects of a user interface on a display screen, in which a selection coefficient is determined for an object (O4) with reference to predetermined parameters, which selection coefficient serves for selecting the object. When selecting an object from a group of objects (O4, O5) of the user interface, the object that has the largest determined selection coefficient among the objects of the group can be selected.
