  • Patent number: 12001499
    Abstract: A computing device is configured to perform acts that include displaying a graphical user interface (GUI) of an operating system installed on the computing device, where a taskbar of the GUI includes a search box. The search box includes: 1) a text entry field that is configured to receive textual input; and 2) a graphical icon. The acts also include detecting a selection of the text entry field and presenting a first graphical pane on the display in response to detecting the selection of the text entry field, where the first graphical pane includes first content. The acts also include detecting a selection of the graphical icon. The acts further include presenting a second graphical pane on the display in response to detecting the selection of the graphical icon, where the second graphical pane comprises second content that is different from the first content.

  • Patent number: 10317790
    Abstract: A method for optical proximity correction includes inputting a physical design having a plurality of shapes. Each shape has a plurality of corners, and the physical design is to be exposed on a surface of a substrate. A set of sub-resolution assist features (SRAFs) for the physical design is determined, where a plurality of SRAFs in the set of SRAFs interact. The plurality of SRAFs together provide better dimensional control of one corner of one shape in the plurality of shapes, when exposed on the substrate, compared to using a single SRAF to control a dimension of the one corner. The plurality of SRAFs includes a positive SRAF and a negative SRAF. A modified physical design is output, where the modified physical design comprises the physical design, as modified by the set of SRAFs.
