Abstract: Timeline creation of electronic document creation states is described. In one or more implementations, document creation states are created responsive to performing editing operations on a document. Document creation state snapshots are then generated for respective document creation states responsive to the document creation states meeting at least one criterion. The at least one criterion may be based on an amount of change in the document, completion of an editing operation, specific alterations to the document, a user request to create a document creation state snapshot, and so on. The resulting document creation state snapshots along with visual representations of metadata associated with the respective document creation states are compiled into a single timeline in a chronological order of when the respective document creation states occurred.

Abstract: Systems and methods provide for a visual history of state changes for content of a document that is being modified within a content editing application. When modifications are made to the content within the content editing application, the modifications are recorded as state changes, and a graphical representation is generated for the modified content at each state change. The graphical representations with associated state changes are presented in a visual history area allowing the user to visually identify the state of the content corresponding to each graphical representation. The user can select a particular graphical representation from the visual history area and the content is transformed to the state corresponding to the selected graphical representation.

Abstract: A customized configuration of controls on a dynamic keyboard is provided for an application using a control configuration file separate from the application. The control configuration file includes a control configuration for each custom control and a layout description. Each control configuration includes a visual description and a command description for a corresponding custom control. The visual description provides data regarding visual aspects of the custom control, while the command description includes data regarding behavioral aspects of the custom control. The layout description includes data for positioning visual representations of the custom controls on a dynamic keyboard. When the application is launched, a storage location is scanned to identify the control configuration file, and the control configuration file is used to configure the custom controls on the dynamic keyboard.

Abstract: Dynamic motion path blur techniques are described. In one or more implementations, paths may be specified to constrain a motion blur effect to be applied to a single image. A variety of different techniques may be employed as part of the motion blur effects, including use of curved blur kernel shapes, use of a mesh representation of blur kernel parameter fields to support real time output of the motion blur effect to an image, use of flash effects, blur kernel positioning to support centered or directional blurring, tapered exposure modeling, and null paths.
