Filed:

Jan 29, 1999

Appl. No.:

09/240016

Inventors:

Anthony Edward Martinez - Austin TX

Assignee:

International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY

International Classification:

G06F 300

US Classification:

345781, 345733, 345966, 345967

Abstract:

A method and implementing computer system is provided in which a user program-linking interface is presented on a computer screen to enable a user to select an input or source program, as well as one of several available functional operators. The linking program is effective to receive data from the input program, perform a selected functional operation on the data as may be selected by a user, and deliver the resulting information in a manner chosen by the user. In one exemplary embodiment, the resulting information is delivered to a selected output or target program which may be coupled to the linking program. In another example, the linking program is effective to provide a display window to show the results of the functional operation performed on the source program as selected by the user.

Appl. No.:

09/657116

Inventors:

Anthony Edward Martinez - Austin TX, US

Assignee:

International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY

International Classification:

G06F 3/048

US Classification:

715862

Abstract:

An apparatus and method is disclosed for displaying a secondary layer of information in a graphical user interface where the second layer of information is revealed when a point on the circumference defined by radius “r” originating at the x,y coordinates of the cursor covers a point in a secondary content of the second layer. The circumference may be set to trigger appearance of secondary content gradually, all at once or to trigger the appearance of all secondary content in a predefined zone.

Filed:

Jul 7, 1997

Appl. No.:

8/888799

Inventors:

Anthony Edward Martinez - Lakeway TX

Assignee:

International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY

International Classification:

G06F 300
G06F 314
G09G 534

US Classification:

345341

Abstract:

The present invention provides a method and system for controlling content on a display of a computer system. The method and system comprises providing at least one control element on the display, moving the at least one control element selectively between a first position and a second position on the window. The method and system further includes the content between the first and second positions. The at least one control element allows the user to "fold" windows of information like a piece of paper, at any location, to hide information that is not of interest to the user.

Appl. No.:

9/250448

Inventors:

Alex Dudley Little - Raleigh NC
Anthony Edward Martinez - Austin TX
Michael David Rahn - Rochester MN

Assignee:

International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY

International Classification:

G06F 314

US Classification:

345341

Abstract:

An apparatus, program product, user interface control and method indicate, on a data set user interface control, the size of a subset of data relative to an overall data set accessible by the control. The data set user interface control may be implemented in much the same manner as a scroll bar, including a slider control that can be manipulated along a scroll region of the scroll bar to adjust the parameters of the subset of data accessible through the window. Further, the length of the slider may be set relative to that of the scroll region to represent the size of the current subset relative to the overall data set. The length of the slider may also be manipulated by a user to adjust the size of the current subset. While a data set user interface control may be implemented in a wide variety of additional environments, one particularly suitable use is in a client-server environment where a data set is retrieved in the form of subsets from an external information source accessible via a server computer.

International Classification:

G09G 534

US Classification:

345126

Abstract:

The present invention provides a method and apparatus for altering the display of an object on a display device in a data processing system. Changes in the attitude of a device within the data processing system are detected relative to a reference plane. The device may be a display device or some other device within the data processing system. The display of the object is altered in response to detecting selected changes in the attitude of the device.

International Classification:

G06F 300
G09G 534

US Classification:

345123

Abstract:

A method and apparatus for inline scrolling of related objects in a computer desktop environment. This scrolling is accomplished by utilizing a pointing device to activate an indicator actually imbedded into the relational information for the data being presented. The inline scrolling is designed to reduce the amount of space required on a display device to convey information to the user.
