The individual images are laid out on an individual page, and the common images are laid out on a common page. Images in which two or less persons including a person corresponding to the specific individual appear are preferentially selected as the individual image, and images which are other than the individual images and in which three or more persons appear are selected as the common images such that the number of appearances of each person becomes an average of the numbers of appearances of a plurality of persons.
Abstract: A first playback device can include a wireless network interface, an audio input interface, one or more processors, and data storage. The data storage stores instructions that, when executed by the processors, cause the first playback device to determine a first radio frequency (RF) energy level associated with RF signal communications from a second playback device to the first playback device. The first playback device modifies a threshold RF energy level for holding off transmissions by the first playback device based on the first RF energy level. The first playback device receives multi-channel audio content via the audio input interface and detects an ambient RF energy level.
Abstract: An interactive treatment mapping and planning system enables a user to more quickly, thoroughly, and efficiently aggregate fibroid and/or treatment information from a user and/or one or more sets of databases, construct a fibroid map providing a visual representation of the aggregated fibroid information, generate information from the aggregated information about the fibroid to be treated and/or treatment procedure, develop a treatment plan based on the fibroid and/or treatment procedure information, provide real-time information gathered from treatment devices during the treatment procedure, and allow the user to interact with the treatment data.

Abstract: A method, system, apparatus, and computer program product provide the ability to navigate between components in a computer-aided design (CAD) mobile drawing application. A drawing is opened in the CAD mobile drawing application on a mobile device. A navigation panel is activated. A component is selected in the drawing. In response to the selecting, information about the selected component is displayed within the navigation panel. Via a mobile device gesture, an element of the information is selected and used as the selected element. The navigation panel is updated by displaying information about the selected element.
Abstract: A user device (24) includes a display (56), audio circuitry (58) and a processor (44). The processor is configured to run an application that includes visual content and audio content, by: (i) before a user of the user device invokes the application, running the application in a background mode in which the visual content is not visible on the display, and inhibiting the audio content from being played by the audio circuitry, and (ii) after the user invokes the application, switching to run the application in a foreground mode in which the visual content is visible on the display, and permitting the audio content to be played by the audio circuitry.

Abstract: There is provided an image archiving method for use with a writing target, comprising the steps of receiving a series of captured images of the writing target, detecting difference between first and second candidate received images separated by a predetermined period of time, where additive differences are indicative of writing and subtractive differences are indicative of erasure; upon detecting subtractive difference, temporarily retaining a last candidate image captured prior to the detection, and detecting whether the subtractive difference relative to the retained image exceeds a subtraction threshold amount; and if so, then storing the retained image.
Abstract: An electronic device: displays a first window in a display area; and detects a first user input associated with one or more edges of the first window. In response to detecting the first user input, and in accordance with a determination that the first user input corresponds to a first input type, the device resizes one or more dimensions of the first window that correspond to the one or more edges of the first window based on a movement vector associated with the first user input. In response to detecting the first user input, and in accordance with a determination that the first user input corresponds to a second input type, the device moves the one or more edges of the first window to one or more corresponding edges of the display area while maintaining respective one or more opposite edges of the first window.

Abstract: A system and a method are disclosed for simulating asset transfers (e.g., sweeps) using a user interface generated by various collections of display routines. A sweep management system may generate a graphical user interface (GUI) on a webpage to simulate sweeps. The GUI may include a list of entities rendered using a first collection of display routines and a graphical representation of some of the entities rendered using a second collection of display routines. The graphical representation may be rendered using a shared webpage object. Furthermore, callback functions are executed to perform operations based on user interactions. For example, callback functions are used to update the graphical representation after a user has dragged and dropped an entry from the list into the graphical representation.

Abstract: A system for flight and task management timeline display is disclosed. In embodiments, the timeline display is positioned on an edge of a primary flight display (PFD) or other avionics display, divided lengthwise into time (e.g., absolute time) and space (e.g., relative time and distance) scales. The timeline display expands situational awareness into the temporal dimension by positioning waypoints in the flight path based on the relative time to passage or flyover. The time scale corresponds to an adjustable time range and automatically scrolls lengthwise according to the current time, but can be manually zoomed or scrolled in past and future directions as well. Based on updates from the flight management system (FMS), the space scale displays relative time-distanced events, notifications for reminders and tasks, and waypoints positioned according to the likely times they will be encountered (or, in the case of reminders and tasks, must be fulfilled).
