List scrolling and document translation, scaling, and rotation on a touch-screen display
In accordance with some embodiments, a computer-implemented method for use in conjunction with a device with a touch screen display is disclosed. In the method, a movement of an object on or near the touch screen display is detected. In response to detecting the movement, an electronic document displayed on the touch screen display is translated in a first direction. If an edge of the electronic document is reached while translating the electronic document in the first direction while the object is still detected on or near the touch screen display, an area beyond the edge of the document is displayed. After the object is no longer detected on or near the touch screen display, the document is translated in a second direction until the area beyond the edge of the document is no longer displayed.

15. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing one or more programs configured to be executed by one or more processors of an electronic device with a touch screen display, the one or more programs including instructions for:
displaying a first portion of a document;
detecting movement of an object on the touch screen display;
in response to detecting the movement, translating the document in a first direction to display a second portion of the document, wherein a direction of the movement of the object corresponds to the translation of the document in the first direction;
in response to an edge of the document being reached while continuing to detect movement of the object on the touch screen display, displaying an indication that the edge of the document has been reached; and
in response to detecting that the object is no longer in contact with the touch screen display, ceasing to display the indication.
16. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
at an electronic device with a touch screen display:
displaying a first portion of a document;
detecting movement of an object on the touch screen display;
in response to detecting the movement, translating the document in a first direction to display a second portion of the document, wherein a direction of the movement of the object corresponds to the translation of the document in the first direction;
in response to an edge of the document being reached while continuing to detect movement of the object on the touch screen display, displaying an indication that the edge of the document has been reached; and
in response to detecting that the object is no longer in contact with the touch screen display, ceasing to display the indication.
17. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 15 , the one or more programs further including instructions for:
in response to detecting that the object is no longer in contact with the touch screen display, translating the document in a second direction.
18. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 17 , wherein the second direction is opposite the first direction.
19. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 17 , wherein translating the document in the second direction is a damped motion.
