20090164939 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CREATION OF AN OBJECT WITHIN AN OBJECT HIERARCHY STRUCTURE - A system and method relating to creation of object(s) in an object hierarchy structure is provided. An object generator that in response to a command to expand a node/object provides a initiator node that facilitates generation of a new object within the object hierarchy upon expansion of the node. A display component concurrently displays the initiator node with the expanded node. The initiator node used for creating objects placed (e.g., in-line) within an object hierarchy structure. To create a new object, an instruction (e.g., user input) to expand a node having a initiator node is received. By selecting the initiator node and entering a name, an object of type defined by the initiator node is created. For example, once the object is created the user can enter information defining parameter(s) of the object. Information can be entered through a user interface box (e.g., text box) that is displayed upon the creation of the object. Also, a grid can overlay the object hierarchy structure allowing information to be entered directly into grid cell(s). The grid can further be employed to display defined parameter(s). | 06-25-2009 |
20100306698 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CUSTOMIZING NOTE FLAGS - A method and system for customizing note flags allows a user to change the look or “feel” of a note flag. A user can be provided with several options in order to create note flags that are visually distinguishable from one another. In this way, the note flags can be used to visually distinguish a first note or first set of notes from a second note or second set of notes. The method and system can also link note flags with a particular action or operation within a document editing module or with action or an operation in another application program relative to a document editing module. In other words, a note flag can initiate an operation in another application program or within the document editing module (or both) when a particular note flag is selected by a user. | 12-02-2010 |
20100325578 | PRESAGING AND SURFACING INTERACTIVITY WITHIN DATA VISUALIZATIONS - The use of visual cues associated with rendered visual items to cue a user on whether a rendered visual item has interactive capability and/or what type of interaction is possible with that visual item. The visual items may be rendered in a data driven way with each constructed using a corresponding parameterized view component. The parameter(s) are populated by data, perhaps by model variables obtained from an analytical model. The parameters then drive logic associated with the view component to thereby construct a visual item which may then be rendered. The rendering engine then renders the visual item with the visual cue. The user may then interact with the rendered visual item. Such interaction might cause some external action to occur, might change which visual items are displayed, and/or might change a value of the input parameters of one or more view components used to generate displayed visual items. | 12-23-2010 |
20110126149 | SYSTEM PROVIDING COMPANION IMAGES - A method for presenting radiographic images of a subject obtains, from the same radiographic image capture, at least a first image and a second image, wherein the at least first and second images differ in presentation. The method associates the at least first and second images as companion images according to one or more entered instructions. There is displayed at least a first executable data link that relates to a first storage location of the first image and a second executable data link that relates to a second storage location of the second image. In response to an operator selection of either of or both of the first and second executable data links, the method displays either the corresponding first or second image, or both companion images. | 05-26-2011 |
20110191714 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR BACKEND ADVERTISMENT CONVERSION - A system for backend conversion attribution of an advertisement served to a user device. The advertisement server provides an advertisement to the user device. The advertisement server receives user information from the user device. The advertisement server stores attributable event information and the user information into an attributable event record in a data store. Based on a user event, a conversion server receives conversion information and the user information from the user device. The conversion server stores the conversion information and the user information into a conversion record in the data store. An attribution server matches the attributable event record with the conversion record. | 08-04-2011 |
20140298255 | MAP LENS IN A USER INTERFACE - A map lens may take the form of a shape that may be superimposed on a map displayed in the user interface, moved around the map by the user, and activated by the user to select a region of the map bounded by the map lens. Activation of the map lens may cause the user interface to display only those markers that are within the region bounded by the map lens. In situations where the user moves the map lens over unselected regions of the map, the user interface may dynamically show or hide markers on the map. This may have the effect of presenting to the user a visually uncluttered map in which markers are only shown in the region in which the user has expressed some interest, as indicated by the user moving the map lens to that region of the map. | 10-02-2014 |
20150378580 | INTERACTION IN CHAIN VISUALIZATION - A chain visualization represents first, second and third hierarchical data items from a database. The second data item descends from the first. The third descends from the second. The visualization shows an ancestors chain and a descendants chain. It has an active item location where the chains meet. The visualization shows a card linked to the ancestors chain for the first data item, a card in the active item location for the second data item, and a card linked to the descendants chain for the third data item. Users may navigate upwards or downwards in the hierarchy by activating any card outside the active item location. Users may stack cards to save screen space, and users may scroll to view different parts of the hierarchy. Users may edit information from data items represented by the cards. | 12-31-2015 |
20160139781 | Integrating Maps and Street Views - Methods and systems for improved integration of an overhead representation (e.g., a map) with a street view representation. A user interface with at least two regions is output for display to a user. One region includes an overhead representation of an area and an interactive control overlaid onto the overhead representation. Another region includes a street view perspective that has a point of view corresponding to a position and directional orientation of the interactive control. Information about a user input that adjusts the interactive control is received and the street view perspective is updated to track the control as it is adjusted. The field of view of the street view perspective may be reflected in the appearance of the interactive control. Additionally, the street view perspective may follow the location of a marker as it is moved around the overhead representation. | 05-19-2016 |
