Patent number: 8878777Abstract: Methods, program products, and systems for corner control are described. Each of the four corners of a rectangular display field can be individually configured to be a rounded corner or an angled corner. In some implementations, a method can include providing a user interface item for display. The user interface item can include four control elements. Each of the control elements can correspond to a corner of a display field. Each of the control elements can individually and independently control a shape of the corresponding corner of the display field. The display field can have one or more corners in rounded shape and one or more corners in angled shape, according to user input received through the user interface item.Type: GrantFiled: January 6, 2012Date of Patent: November 4, 2014Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Heather L.

Patent number: 8484560Abstract: A system displays content from a database in a formatted view. The formatted view includes one or more data fields arranged in one or more data sections. Each of the data sections includes a sub-summary display field. The system receives a request to modify data in one of the data fields. In response, the system reformats the formatted view. The reformatting includes moving the data field from a first data section to a second data section and updating the sub-summary display field in the first data section and the sub-summary display field in the second data section. The system displays the reformatted view.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2009Date of Patent: July 9, 2013Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Duc Vuong, Ashok Srinivasan, Christopher Crim, Toufic Milan, Stephen Iremonger, Andrew Paulsen, Rick Kalman

Patent number: 8438177Abstract: A graphical user interface in a database application includes a control for manipulating a result set of a query. The control is operable to display multiple graphical representations of a result ratio between a total number of rows in a database table returned in response to the query and a total number of rows of the database table. By interacting with the control, the user can switch (e.g., toggle) between graphical representations of the result ratio. The toggling can be achieved by automatically creating supplemental queries to the database. The graphical representations can be a pie chart, bar chart, eye chart or any other graphical representation that is suitable for displaying the result ratio.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 2008Date of Patent: May 7, 2013Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Andrew Paulsen, Christopher Crim, Ryan Griggs
