Patent number: 11966573Abstract: Technologies are disclosed for temporarily hiding user interface (“UI”) elements, such as application windows or tabs. A request can be received to hide a UI element for a specified period of time. When such a request is received, the UI element is hidden and an identifier corresponding to the UI element is moved from a first area of a taskbar to a second area of the taskbar. The application presenting the UI element can be configured for reduced consumption of computing resources while the UI element is hidden. Additionally, notifications associated with the UI element can be disabled while the UI element is hidden. When the specified period of time to hide the UI element has elapsed, the UI element is once again displayed. Additionally, the identifier corresponding to the UI element is moved from the second area of the taskbar back to the first area of the taskbar.Type: GrantFiled: June 2, 2021Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Jan-Kristian Markiewicz, Jerome Stephen Healy, Tiffany Jamie Chen

Patent number: 11614852Abstract: A method, apparatus, and product are provided for providing a GUI. The method includes determining whether to present a widget over a display of a user, where the display has at least a portion of a page that is visible to a user. The page has a second widget, and the determining is based on an estimated likelihood that the user will reach the second widget. The widget is configured to present in the display one or more content cards. Upon determining that the estimated likelihood is below a first threshold, the widget is displayed over the display of the user. The estimated likelihood of the user is dynamically adjusted based on interactions with the page to provide an adjusted estimated likelihood. If the adjusted estimated likelihood of the user is above a second threshold, the widget may be removed from the display.Type: GrantFiled: April 22, 2021Date of Patent: March 28, 2023Assignee: TABOOLA.COM LTD.Inventors: Lior Golan, Lior Papirblat

Patent number: 11561672Abstract: A method executes at a computing device having a display, processors, and memory. The device displays a user interface for a data preparation application, including icons in a flow element palette, each icon representing a parameterized operation that can be inserted into data preparation flows in a flow pane of the user interface. A user places icons into the flow pane, visually defining flow elements for a flow that extracts data from selected data sources, transforms the extracted data, and exports the transformed data. The device retrieves the version number of a corresponding server application running on a server. Using a feature matrix, the device determines which flow elements are not supported by the data prep server application according to the version number. When there are flow elements not supported by the data prep server application running on the server, the device indicates this to the user.Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 2020Date of Patent: January 24, 2023Assignee: TABLEAU SOFTWARE, LLCInventors: Maraki Aschalew Ketema, Douglas Alan Thomae, Linda Oliveira, Miranda Rose Rensch, Yihai Zhu, Ruben Baeza, Jr., Krishan Zachary Jain, Faisal Ejaz
