20080201652 | Techniques for viewing and managing work items and their relationships - Various technologies and techniques are disclosed for viewing and managing work items. A work item management application is provided to allow a user to view and manage a plurality of work items from a single view. An interactive viewing feature is provided to allow the user to interactively view complex relationships between selected groups of work items. When the user selects all of the work items of a particular type in a work item group, the orphaned items are visually indicated. A many-to-many linker feature allows the user to create many-to-many relationships between a selected group of the work items in a single operation. | 08-21-2008 |
20090204912 | GENEERAL PURPOSE INFINITE DISPLAY CANVAS - Expanding and contracting a display screen container. Data is stored in a computer readable medium. The data represents a screen container such as a graphical desktop user interface displayable to a user on a computer display of a computing device. Data is stored representing artifacts, including one or more application graphical user interface artifacts for applications that are instantiated on the computing device. Information is stored specifying locations where each of the artifacts should be graphically located in the screen container. The graphical size of screen container is determined by the locations of the artifacts. Based on user input, a portion of the screen container is displayed to the user on the computer display of the computing device. The screen container may be expanded or contracted based on opening or closing graphical user interface artifacts, adding or removing artifacts, or repositioning artifacts. | 08-13-2009 |
20090322739 | Visual Interactions with Analytics - Visual interaction with an analytics-driven model view composition application. The application includes a data-model binding component that binds input data to model parameters, an analytics solver component that solves for remaining unknown model parameters, and a view composition component that generates a view composition using the model parameters. In one visual interaction, various solutions of the model are provided in alternative views of various view compositions in a single integrated composition. In another interaction, regardless of whether there are multiple view compositions illustrated in a single integrated view, there might be visual prompts in the view composition that suggest an adjustment to make that might move the value of a particular model parameter in a desired direction. | 12-31-2009 |
20120159298 | GENERATING CUSTOMIZED DATA BOUND VISUALIZATIONS - Descried herein are various technologies to visualizing data in a spreadsheet application. Customized visualizations are generated by binding a user-defined equation with a parameter of a primitive visual shape that has been selected by the user to visualized a dataset. The user-defined equation takes as input a value of data in a cell of the spreadsheet application, and the primitive visual shape is displayed to the user as a function of the output of the user-defined equation. | 06-21-2012 |
20130007671 | MULTI-FACETED RELATIONSHIP HUBS - Multi-faceted relationship hubs can support browsing an extensible set of relationship types from within a single tool window. A user can switch between relationship types within a single tool window without disrupting user flow by having to change context in a plurality of tool windows. Multiple instances of relationship hubs can be created. Browsing navigation history can be stored, allowing a user to maintain and reacquire relationship contexts. A user can preview the content of one or more files without opening the file. | 01-03-2013 |
20130074042 | VISUALIZING THREAD STATE DURING PROGRAM DEBUGGING - The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for visualizing thread state during program debugging. A tooltip can present a visual summary of the execution state of the application threads, what the values are, and patterns in the values, during debugging. As such, a developer debugging a parallel application can see the status of threads within a thread block. A visual tooltip (or other presentation mechanism) can be activated by hovering (e.g., placing a mouse pointer) over a user interface element. A visual tooltip can be presented by hovering over a status rollup visualization of the thread states or by hovering over an icon that appears in the code gutter for a code segment. Accordingly, developers can get a concise visual summary of thread states, variables, and values during debugging. | 03-21-2013 |
20130083025 | VISUAL FOCUS-BASED CONTROL OF COUPLED DISPLAYS - Various technologies described herein pertain to controlling functionality of a display based on visual focus of a user in a multiple display or multiple computational device environment. A particular display from a set of displays on which a user is visually focused is identified. The set of displays includes at least a first display and a second display. Moreover, a type of input receivable from the user via the first display and/or content rendered on the first display is controlled based on the visual focus of the user. | 04-04-2013 |
20130086105 | VOICE DIRECTED CONTEXT SENSITIVE VISUAL SEARCH - Various technologies described herein pertain to voice directed context sensitive visual searching. Visual content can be rendered on a display, and a voice directed query related to the visual content can be received. Contextual information related to the visual content can also be identified. Moreover, a search word recognized from the voice directed query and/or the contextual information can be used to detect an object from the visual content, where the object can be a part of the visual content. Further, a search can be performed using the object detected from the visual content, and a result of the search can be rendered on the display. | 04-04-2013 |
20130152051 | TIME-BASED NAVIGATION WITHIN RESOURCE UTILIZATION DATA - The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for time-based navigation within resource utilization data. A computer system is configured to present resource utilization data representing performance of computer resources. The resource utilization data is displayed on a diagnostic data trace during the execution of the application. The user can select a desired time range and the resource utilization data within the time range will be displayed at other traces. The diagnostic data trace is still presented so that the user can understand the relation between the selected time range and the overall time length. Further, the user can modify the selected time range by change the extents of the selected time range using resizing tool. The resource utilization data within the modified selected time range, similarly, is also displayed along with the diagnostic data trace. | 06-13-2013 |
20140310273 | BINDING OF DATA SOURCE TO COMPOUND CONTROL - The automated binding of a data source to a compound control. The properties of the compound control are identified. Furthermore, a particular data source is associated with the compound control. For each of one or more of the properties of the compound control, information regarding the compound control and the data source are used to identify a set of one or more fields of the particular data source that may be bound to the corresponding property of the compound control. If the corresponding property of the compound control has bound thereto an output parameter of a declarative transformation, the nature of the transformation may also be taken into consideration when identifying the set of one or more fields that may be used in order to bind to the corresponding property of the compound control. | 10-16-2014 |
20140310619 | SIGNAL CAPTURE CONTROLS IN RECALCULATION USER INTERFACE - A recalculation user interface that includes visualization controls that display in response to received data, and signal capture controls that capture corresponding environment signals upon detection of a corresponding event. A declarative transformation chain is positioned between the various controls. Examples of environmental signals captured by the signal capture controls include image, video, audio, orientation, biometrics, location, weather, or any other information about the environment. Incorporating such signal capture controls into the recalculation user interface thus allows captured environmental signals to be incorporated into the logic and other data of the transformation chain. Also, an authoring tool that permits authoring of such recalculation user interfaces is described. | 10-16-2014 |
