  • Patent number: 11030388
    Abstract: Live text glyph modification is described. A content processing system receives a selection input to select a glyph via a user interface of a content editing application. Responsive to this selection, the content processing system generates an outline of the glyph's geometry and enables modification of the outline relative to left-bearing, right-bearing, and baseline positions for the glyph, which define the glyph's position relative to other glyphs of the text content. Using the modified outline, the content processing system generates a modified glyph, which may be stored in a global storage resource and added to a stylistic set for the font type of the original glyph. This enables the content processing system to generate and store modified glyph geometries that can be readily interchanged with original glyph geometries during the creation of text content—without destroying the ability to edit the text content using conventional text editing tools.

  • Patent number: 11029813
    Abstract: A client computing system (CCS) receives a download including (i) an image representative of at least one circuit in a vehicle, the at least one circuit including a first circuit configured for carrying a first signal within the vehicle, and (ii) symbol data associated with at least one symbol, the at least one symbol including a first symbol. After receiving the download, the CCS displays the image and the at least one symbol. The CCS then receives a first input corresponding to selection of the first symbol. The CCS then responsively receives, from the vehicle, data representing value(s) of the first signal. The CCS then determines a first display-location at which to display the data representing the value(s) of the first signal. While the image and the at least one symbol are displayed, the CCS then displays, at the first display-location, the data representing the value(s) of the first signal.

  • Patent number: 10949604
    Abstract: Techniques described herein implement identifying artifacts in digital documents in a digital medium environment. A document analysis system is leveraged to extract page features from a digital document and to determine whether certain page features represent page artifacts such as headers and footers. Those page features determined to be page artifacts can be extracted from the digital document to generate a reflowed version of the digital document that preserves primary content. The primary content, for instance, is rearranged in the reflowed document to compensate for the extracted page artifacts.

  • Patent number: 10936342
    Abstract: Embodiments of apparatus, systems, and methods are described for creating, arranging, and displaying data mappings between two different data schemas in a graphical user interface (GUI). The GUI allows scaling of a data schema, automatic data sorting and grouping of objects in a schema, dynamic spacing of data mappings in the GUI, and customizable data map transformations to entities of a canonical data model. The GUI can limit the display of objects and fields to those that have been mapped into entity groups. The GUI can display mapped or unmapped fields to facilitate the mapping of additional fields or objects. The GUI displays visual logic connectors between objects and entities to summarize the relationship and number of mappings between the objects and entities. Objects and entities can be expanded and collapsed to show more granular relationship information. Instance-enabled canonical entities can be created to conceptually group fields.

  • Patent number: 10884891
    Abstract: Interactive detection of system anomalies is disclosed. One example is a system including a data processor, an anomaly processor, and an interaction processor. Input data related to a series of events and telemetry measurements is received by the data processor. The anomaly processor detects presence of a system anomaly in the input data, the system anomaly indicative of a rare situation that is distant from a norm of a distribution based on the series of events and telemetry measurements. The interaction processor is communicatively linked to the anomaly processor and to an interactive graphical user interface. The interaction processor displays, via the interactive graphical user interface, an output data stream based on the presence of the system anomaly, receives, from the interactive graphical user interface, feedback data associated with the output data stream, and provides the feedback data to the anomaly processor for operations analytics based on the feedback data.

  • Patent number: 10885263
    Abstract: A processor may determine at least one document formatting feature by analyzing raw data and select templates corresponding to the at least one document formatting feature. The processor may generate a dynamic document template including at least a portion of the raw data and based on the selected templates. The dynamic document template may include a plurality of template sections arranging the raw data into a prescribed document format. The processor may receive at least one user change to the dynamic document template and may regenerate the dynamic document template by regenerating only a subset of the template sections affected by the change while preserving at least one template section unaffected by the change. The processor may generate the formatted document by processing the dynamic document template into a static form having the at least one document formatting feature and including the at least the portion of the raw data.

  • Patent number: 10803239
    Abstract: The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for automatically generating reporting documents based on contents of an associated set of test data. One example method includes receiving a request to generate a new report, the request identifying a report template, a set of test data, and a report name associated with the request. A repository stores the test data and report templates, each template associated with an initial set of bookmarks, each bookmark associated with a particular location. A copy of the template is generated and stored as the identified report name. Based on the test data, a set of visualizations to be inserted into the new report are identified. Bookmarks associated with each of the visualizations are inserted into the new report. Each visualization is then generated and inserted at the location of the corresponding bookmark. The updated version of the report is then stored.

  • Patent number: 10788969
    Abstract: A method remotely monitors an operation of a household appliance by a portable communication end device by receiving status data of the appliance. A current operating state of the appliance is detected based on received status data via a control unit and by actuating a display for displaying a graphical user interface for remote monitoring of the operation by the control unit. The current operating status of the appliance is output. The outputting of the current operating status includes an image depiction which characterizes the current operating status. To generate the image depiction, differential features between the current operating status and a reference status of the appliance are identified and a basis image, in which the appliance is shown in the reference status, is overlaid by an overlay image illustrating the differential features, which overlay image illustrates the appliance in the current operating status in interaction with the basis image.
