20120116834 | HYBRID TASK BOARD AND CRITICAL PATH METHOD BASED PROJECT APPLICATION - Tasks can be visualized and tracked through automatic generation of a task board based on data from a project management application and data transferred from a task board to a project management application. Summary tasks, which represent grouping of related tasks in project management, are pivoted such that sub-tasks can be laid out in task board rows or “stories.” Progress status indicators in a task board (or columns) are derived automatically from intrinsic and traditional project management application fields like “percent complete” enabling users to take advantage of traditional project management features such as dependencies, resource leveling, etc., while presenting a simplified and intuitive task board interface to a project manager and/or a project team. | 05-10-2012 |
20120116835 | HYBRID TASK BOARD AND CRITICAL PATH METHOD BASED PROJECT MANAGEMENT APPLICATION INTERFACE - Seamless interaction between a task board and an underlying Critical Path Method (CPM) based project management application is provided, where users are enabled to move tasks on a task board user interface across columns or summary task (“story”) rows. Upon detecting a move of a task, a task board application (or its parent project management application) updates a project hierarchy of tasks reflecting the new grouping if the move is across rows such that critical path and other computations for the overall project can be updated by the project management application. If the move is across columns indicating a change of task property, relevant properties associated with the task (and/or its parent task(s)) are updated and provided to the project management application for re-computation of appropriate aspects of the project. | 05-10-2012 |

20120324345 | Transitioning between an Editing View and a Backstage View of an Electronic Document - Transitioning between an editing view and a backstage view of an electronic document may be provided. A user interface may be displayed on a computer which includes an editing view of the electronic document. The computer may then receive an input in the editing view for transitioning from the editing view to the backstage view of the electronic document. The backstage view may include meta information associated with data displayed in the editing view. A transition may then be performed from the editing view to the backstage view of the electronic document. The backstage view including the meta information may then be displayed in the user interface. | 12-20-2012 |

20090234699 | User Interface For Scheduling Resource Assignments - A project management resources scheduling user interface is provided in which resource information may be displayed in a condensed timeline for each resource over the duration of a project. Individual tasks or groups of tasks displayed in the project management resources scheduling view may be moved from one resource to another resource while respecting project constraints and dependencies. Unassigned and unscheduled tasks may be dragged onto the scheduling view and may be dropped on a given resource in a timing location required by the project. Tasks may be viewed according to a hierarchical relationship between tasks of a given project. The scheduling view may be used in combination with a Gantt chart view of project tasks for allowing a view of both task-based and resource-based scheduling. | 09-17-2009 |
