Abstract: A flexible display that can be adjusted by an electromagnetic mechanism to remove a deformation is disclosed. The flexible display is attached to a body that is configurable in a folded configuration or an unfolded configuration by a hinge mechanism. When unfolded the flexible display includes a deformation (i.e., warp) in an area around the hinge mechanism. Accordingly, an electromagnet is included with the hinge mechanism to remove the deformation by attracting a magnetic element is disposed on a back surface of the flexible display.

Abstract: A wearable device, which comprises a wristband, an electronic module and a connector. The wristband comprises a housing and a band. The housing has a first end, a second end, and an accommodating space. The band has a first end extending from the first end of the housing, and a free second end opposite to the first end of the band. The electronic module disposes within the accommodating space. The connector disposes either at the second end of the housing, or at a first end of the electronic module that is closer to the second end of the housing than the first end of the housing, wherein the free second end of the band is insertable through or into the connector. Wherein there is free of any band between the second end of the housing and the connector and between the first end of the electronic module and the connector.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for an improved user interface for displaying and scaling selectable software commands and controls in at least one of a first ribbon and a second ribbon. Underneath a first ribbon of top-level command tabs, selectable controls associated with a selected command tab are presented in logical subgroups or chunks. The selectable controls within the chunks are granularly scaled to accommodate different screen sizes or changes in window size. The scaling includes moving a subset of the selectable controls within at least one of the chunks between an overflow pane and the second ribbon.

Abstract: A system and machine-implemented method for providing a font is provided. A request is received from a client device to download a font. The requested font is accessed, where the accessed font includes a corresponding character map and a corresponding glyph table. A supported character list and a modified font based on the corresponding character map, the modified font is compressed, and the supported character list and the compressed modified font are sent to the client device. Character data is also sent to the client device, wherein the character data is for merging the at least one character into the modified font based on information in the character data.
