| 20100180218 | EDITING METADATA IN A SOCIAL NETWORK - A system and method for server-side method for editing metadata in a file, the method including steps of: receiving from a user a request for editing the metadata in the file; presenting a window to the user for display on a user's screen wherein the window displays properties of the metadata; receiving from the user an edit to the metadata properties; and updating the metadata properties with the edit received from the user, for producing an updated metadata. | 07-15-2010 |
| 20100262925 | EFFICIENTLY SHARING WINDOWS DURING ONLINE COLLABORATIVE COMPUTING SESSIONS - In one embodiment, a presenter device may determine displayed windows of applications, and may provide individual window sharing selectability (e.g., shared or unshared), as well as entire application sharing selectability (shared, unshared, or neither). In particular, the entire application sharing selectability takes priority over individual window sharing selections (i.e., all windows of shared applications are shared and all windows of unshared applications are unshared). Based on individual window sharing selections and entire application sharing selections, a set of presenter device windows that are to be shared with the attendee devices may be determined, as well as a set of unshared windows that are not to be shared with the attendee devices, and the presenter device may share the set of shared windows with the attendee devices, without sharing the set of unshared windows. | 10-14-2010 |
| 20120159355 | OPTIMIZED JOINT DOCUMENT REVIEW - A UI for presenting and reviewing a document is optimized based upon the type of computing device being utilized to present the document. One such UI includes a first pane showing a view of the document under review that is sized and formatted for display on a large-format display device. The first pane can also be utilized to emphasize a portion of the document. The UI also includes a second pane that includes indicators for each of the reviewers of the document. The selection of an indicator will cause a portion of the document being reviewed by the corresponding reviewer to be displayed in the first pane. The UI also includes a third pane that includes a scaled image of the document shown in the first pane. Selection of a portion of the scaled image causes the selected portion of the document to be displayed in the first pane. | 06-21-2012 |
| 20120324373 | Graphical User Interfaces for Supporting Collaborative Generation of Life Stories - Graphical user interfaces (GUIs) support the collaborative generation of life stories by helping the user view the development of the life stories of other users and facilitating interaction with them through these GUIs. A GUI according to a first type helps the user keep track of recent life stories and comments posted by other users of the collaborative system, and a GUI according to a second type helps the user view life stories of any user in a chronological manner. | 12-20-2012 |
| 20130132867 | Systems and Methods for Image Navigation Using Zoom Operations - In accordance with the teachings described herein, systems and methods are provided for navigating an image using zoom operations. A zoomed view of the image may be displayed on a display screen. In response to receiving a first user input, the zoomed view of the image is replaced on the display screen with a zoom selection view of the image, the zoom selection view including a base view of the image with a zoom selection window enclosing a portion of the base view of the image. A second user input may be received to move the zoom selection window in the zoom selection view to identify a portion of the image to be zoomed. A new zoomed view may then be displayed on the display screen, in place of the zoom selection view, that includes the portion of the image identified by the zoom selection window. | 05-23-2013 |
| 20130179805 | SKETCH ANNOTATION TOOL - An input invokes a sketch tool at a computing device. Further, a graphical user interface operably connected to the computing device displays a canvas overlay over a content area displayed by the graphical user interface upon the receipt of the input. In addition, the computing device receives a drawing input with the sketch tool in the canvas overlay. The computing device displays a sketch overlaid over the content area based on the drawing input. | 07-11-2013 |
