| 20080222561 | Generalized Faceted Browser Decision Support Tool - Embodiments of the present invention provide a faceted browser for decision-making that enables interactive visualization of a decision space as choices are made. According to one embodiment, a computer-implemented method comprises receiving a selection of a first choice from a user. The first choice is displayed in a user interface that includes a plurality of facets, each facet including a plurality of choices. The method further comprises disabling at least one second choice in response to the selection of the first choice, and determining a first result set in response to the selection of the first choice. The user interface is then updated in real-time to display the selected status of the first choice, the disabled status of the second choice, and the first result set to the user. | 09-11-2008 |
| 20090077029 | COMPACT FOCUSED SEARCH INTERFACE - A graphical user interface for searching information related to business objects includes a search interface having one or more user input fields for receiving data from a user related to one or more attributes associated with business objects. The search interface presents the one or more user input fields in response to a user context. A first tab displays information related to a set of business objects in response to a search based on the data provided to the one or more user input fields. A second tab displays information related to a business object in the set of business objects. | 03-19-2009 |
| 20100058218 | DYNAMIC CREATION OF PRODUCT STRUCTURE - Systems and method for dynamic creation of product structure using a graphical user interface (GUI) are disclosed. A method for dynamic creation of products structures may include displaying information specifying a set of product items using the GUI. Input can be received via the GUI. The input may be indicative of one or more product levels within a product structure. A user may indent or otherwise manipulate the set of product items into one or more product levels. A product structure can then be generated based on the one or more product levels. In some embodiments, display of the set of product items can be updated to reflect the product structure. | 03-04-2010 |
| 20100216515 | FLIP MOBILE LIST TO TABLE - A method of presenting data on a mobile electronics device includes initiating an application on a mobile device, requesting data from a server separate from the mobile device, receiving data from the server, displaying the data on the mobile device in a first view, and displaying the data on the mobile device in a second view, upon detecting a change of orientation of the mobile device. A method of providing data to a mobile device includes receiving a request for data from a mobile device at a server, providing the data in at least a first view to a mobile device, and upon reception of a second request from the mobile device, providing the data in a second view. A method of presenting data on a mobile device includes initiating a database application on a mobile device, requesting data from a database server across a mobile network, receiving the data from the database server across the mobile network, displaying the data in a first view on the mobile device, and displaying the data on the mobile device in a second view upon receiving a signal from an orientation sensor in the mobile device indicating that the mobile device has changed orientation from a first orientation to a second orientation. | 08-26-2010 |
| 20100218113 | FLIP MOBILE LIST TO TABLE - A method of presenting data on a mobile electronics device includes initiating an application on a mobile device, requesting data from a server separate from the mobile device, receiving data from the server, displaying the data on the mobile device in a first view, and displaying the data on the mobile device in a second view, upon detecting a change of orientation of the mobile device. A method of providing data to a mobile device includes receiving a request for data from a mobile device at a server, providing the data in at least a first view to a mobile device, and upon reception of a second request from the mobile device, providing the data in a second view. A method of presenting data on a mobile device includes initiating a database application on a mobile device, requesting data from a database server across a mobile network, receiving the data from the database server across the mobile network, displaying the data in a first view on the mobile device, and displaying the data on the mobile device in a second view upon receiving a signal from an orientation sensor in the mobile device indicating that the mobile device has changed orientation from a first orientation to a second orientation. | 08-26-2010 |
| 20110296346 | ACTION TOOL BAR FOR MOBILE APPLICATIONS - According to one embodiment, a computer-implemented method for dynamically providing a tool bar in a user interface is provided. The method includes determining at least one action that is commonly performed based on data displayed on a current page of a graphical user interface of a communications device, creating a tool bar comprising at least one icon representing the at least one action, associating the tool bar with the current page of the graphical user interface, and providing the tool bar to the communications device for display on the current page of the graphical user interface. | 12-01-2011 |
| 20110302177 | SEARCH-SORT TOGGLE - A system for facilitating accessing or retrieving desired data via use of graphically displayed search/sort toggle functionality. In an example embodiment, the method includes providing a first user option to toggle between display of a search control and a sort control. Search results are displayed in response to user input provided via the search control. Note that default search results may be initially displayed. A portion of the search results may be displayed simultaneously with one or more controls associated with the first user option. In a more specific embodiment, the example method further includes displaying search results simultaneously with one or more sort controls in response to user selection of the first option when one or more search controls are initially displayed. Hence, display of search and sort controls may be toggled via the first option while any search results are simultaneously displayed along with the controls. Sort controls are adapted to enable a user to specify one or more sort criteria for sorting data, such as retrieved search results. Similarly, search controls enable specification of one or more search criteria or queries. | 12-08-2011 |
| 20110302516 | MOBILE DESIGN PATTERNS - A mobile design pattern. In an example embodiment, the design pattern includes a first user interface display screen that depicts a list of user interface controls organized in rows. Each row in the list includes a different set of one or more controls. Each different set of one or more controls is associated with a different set of functionality provided by one or more additional user interface display screens. The example design pattern further includes a second user interface display screen that is accessible via the different sets of one or more controls. The second user interface display screen includes a navigation bar, which includes one or more navigation controls and a title or header identifying a set of functionality associated with the different set of one or more controls. The second user interface display screen further includes an information-display region adapted to display data associated with the set of functionality. | 12-08-2011 |
