Jessica Arwen Best - Bellevue WA, US
Assignee:

MICROSOFT CORPORATION - REDMOND WA
International Classification:

G06F 17/20
US Classification:

715228
Abstract:

Embodiments are provided that include the use of an underlying grid structure as part of managing table operations and/or animation visualizations, but are not so limited. A method of an embodiment uses an underlying grid structure as part of an animation control reference or guide to provide table visualizations for display, including using one or more table borders and aspects of a reference grid column or row as part of controlling table features. A system of one embodiment includes a table manager to manage table actions and a grid manager to manage an underlying grid structure based in part on associated table actions and/or animations. Other embodiments are also disclosed.

G06F 17/30
US Classification:

707687, 707E1701, 707E17005
Abstract:

Techniques to modify file descriptors for content files are described. An apparatus may comprise a processor circuit and a file descriptor application operative on the processor circuit to manage file descriptors for content files, the file descriptor application arranged to generate a file descriptor for a content file in accordance with a universal file descriptor model, the universal file descriptor model to comprise a file descriptor surface with multiple file descriptor tiles to present corresponding content parts from the content file, with at least one of the file descriptor tiles defining a content part class representing homogeneous content parts from heterogeneous content file types. The file descriptor application may also comprise a file descriptor editor component arranged to allow modifications to the file descriptor. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

US Patent:

20120162266, Jun 28, 2012
Filed:

Sep 23, 2011
Appl. No.:

13/242009
Inventors:

Malia Douglas - Seattle WA, US
Tristan Davis - Redmond WA, US
Matthew Wood - Seattle WA, US
Robin Troy - Kirkland WA, US
Pam Teh - Bellevue WA, US
Assignee:

MICROSOFT CORPORATION - Redmond WA
International Classification:

G09G 5/00
US Classification:

345677
Abstract:

Techniques for an electronic montage system are described. An apparatus may comprise a logic device arranged to execute a montage application comprising a presentation component. The presentation component may be operative to detect when a display size or resolution has changed from one used for an original layout of a montage. The presentation component may reposition, or reflow, the tiles in the montage in the changed display in a way that preserves the spatial characteristics of the tiles to each other. An authoring component may reflow tiles automatically when a tile is deleted from a montage to minimize blank space between tiles. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

16/434467
Inventors:

- Redmond WA, US
Nathaniel Marvin Myhre - Kirkland WA, US
Malia Morioka Douglas - Seattle WA, US
Shikha Devesh Desai - Bellevue WA, US
Yoon Jin Lee - Woodinville WA, US
Peter Loren Engrav - Seattle WA, US
International Classification:

G06F 16/16
G06F 3/0482
Abstract:

Technology is disclosed herein for enhancing a file aggregation service. In an implementation, a set of files associated with a user is identified. For at least a file of the set of files, one or more events that occurred with respect to the file are identified. Based at least on the one or more events, one or more synthetic attributes of the file are generated. The one or more synthetic attributes comprise an attribute that differs relative to existing attributes of the file. A file system view of the set of files is then generated which comprises the one or more synthetic attributes of the file. The file system view of the set of files is displayed to a user.
