Abstract: A first computer system in a collaborative environment receives a plurality of indications of actions executed on content of a second computer system in the collaborative environment. A mapping between the content of the second computer system and corresponding content of the first computer system is determined. A subset of the plurality of indications of the actions executed on the content of the second computer system that are to be executed on the corresponding content of the first computer system is identified. A preview of executing the subset of the plurality of indications of the actions is presented on the first computer system. The subset of the plurality of indications of the actions is executed on the corresponding content of the first computer system.

Abstract: A method includes, in response to items being selected in a graphical user interface, defining a first state for the items as selected items and a second state for a set of one or more unselected items in the list as unselected. The method includes graphically indicating via the graphical user interface the items as selected items and the set of items as unselected items. The method includes updating the first state of the items to a third state that reflects manipulation of the items while still indicating the items as selected items and maintaining the second state for the set of items. The method includes updating the graphical user interface to depict the manipulation of the items in accordance with the command while still indicating the items as selected items and the set of items as unselected items.

Abstract: Selections from a long list of elements on a Graphical User Interface (GUI) are presented. When a context window is presented for the selections, different cues are provided in the context window to provide feedback regarding the selections that are not in the current view, and to also facilitate rapid navigation to those selections on the GUI. Interaction with the GUI widgets within the context window, and interaction with the context window itself, facilitates the navigation toward the other selections that are not in the current view. Interaction with the GUI widgets also facilitates the preview of the selections that are not in the current view, thus making it easier to determine what has been selected without having to navigate to the view that contains those selections.
