Abstract: Techniques for selection of content within web documents are described herein. In implementations, a selection tool for a browser or other client application is configured to analyze web documents to recognize different regions in the arrangement of content for the document. The selection tool may parse the underlying structure of a webpage (e.g., the mark-up code and DOM structure) to identify different discrete regions in the webpage. In addition or alternatively, the selection tool may use optical recognition techniques to visually analyze the webpage as it appears when rendered and detect different discrete regions based on the visual analysis. Recognized regions are configured as portions of the content that are individually selectable. These selectable regions may be exposed and made accessible in various ways to enable users to toggle selection of the regions quickly and easily.

Abstract: The digital ink system receives digital ink input from a user and analyzes the digital ink input to collect ink stroke data for the various ink strokes that make up the digital ink. The digital ink system also receives an animation type selection that describes a manner in which the digital ink is to be displayed. The animation type is a dynamic display type, which is display type in which the digital ink changes while the digital ink is displayed. The ink strokes of the digital ink input are displayed using the selected animation type, and are also stored along with the animation type in a digital ink container for subsequent display. The digital ink can be subsequently displayed using the animation type or using a static display type in which the digital ink appears to be stationary while the digital ink is displayed.

Abstract: Access and management control of browser annotations are described. In one or more implementations, a method is described to control and manage access to annotations made via a browser to transform a webpage. The method includes displaying the webpage by the browser executed by a computing device; receiving one or more inputs by the computing device via the browser as one or more annotations to the webpage; capturing an image of the displayed webpage and the one or more annotations that are made in relation to the display of the webpage by the browser of the computing device; and controlling access via the browser to the annotated webpage through use of the one or more annotations and the captured image of the webpage.
