| 20090217160 | CUSTOMIZING WIDGET DRAW STYLES - Techniques for customizing draw styles of widgets to better accommodate a user's direct manipulation needs. A user can customize various attributes of a widget and its manipulators to suit the user's needs. The customizations are stored as a style. The stored style can subsequently be applied to the widget to control the appearance and behavior of the widget. Stored styles may be applied to other widgets and can also be shared between users. | 08-27-2009 |
| 20090228873 | DISPLAY BREAKPOINTING BASED ON USER INTERFACE EVENTS - Techniques for monitoring breakpoints. An application having a breakpoint to be executed on a target device is received. The application is executed on the target device. A screen image corresponding to a display on the target device is captured in response to reaching the breakpoint while executing the application. The screen image is stored in a memory of the target device. | 09-10-2009 |
| 20090260022 | Widget Authoring and Editing Environment - An authoring environment for creating and/or editing user interface elements such as widgets used in a unified interest layer. The authoring environment facilitates creation of widgets that have a consistent appearance and mechanism, and allows third-party developers to easily create widgets that have a look and feel that is consistent with a predefined set of widgets. | 10-15-2009 |
| 20110246964 | Archiving a Build Product - An enhanced integrated development environment (IDE) is able to archive a build product and/or work with an archived build product in various ways. In one embodiment, a build product archive includes a manifest, a source code snapshot, a symbol table, and a build product. The manifest contains meta-data about the archive. The source code snapshot is a copy of the source code that was used in the build process. The symbol table is a copy of the symbol table that was generated by the build process. The build product is a copy of the build product that was generated by the build process. A developer can use the enhanced IDE to help share a build product with others and/or to understand system logs and reports that describe operation of the build product (e.g., crash logs and memory logs). | 10-06-2011 |
| 20110258604 | Collapsible Stack Trace - A tool for analyzing software is enhanced to provide multiple views of a stack trace, with each view having a different level of detail. Different views may be lightly simplified, moderately simplified, or heavily simplified. The display of a complete stack trace includes entries for all stack frames in the stack trace. The display of a simplified stack trace includes entries for fewer than all stack frames in the stack trace, thereby “hiding” or “collapsing” entries for some of the stack frames, relative to the complete stack trace display. After a user specifies a level of complexity with which to show a stack trace, the enhanced analysis tool GUI updates the stack trace display according to the specified level. A complexity level is associated with a set of heuristics that is used to create a view of a stack trace at that complexity level. | 10-20-2011 |
