Abstract: Various embodiments discussed herein are directed to improving existing technologies by enabling users to share content items directly from an operating system component, with little to no user interface input requirements at the underlying communications application. For instance, some embodiments receive an indication that a mouse pointer is hovering over an operating system taskbar icon and automatically produce a flyout window so that a user can share a currently opened application page to other users via a selection of a button within the flyout window. Such application page may be shared via a single selection at the flyout window or an additional “are you sure” or confirmation step. In this way, excessive drilling, navigation, and other user input at the application is reduced and simplified, thereby improving the user experience, content sharing accuracy, and computer resource consumption, among other improvements.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing an article, including using coordinate measuring machine both to obtain three-dimensional point coordinate measurements of first part of article in place and to position a second part of article in predetermined spatial relationship relative to first part in dependence upon measurements of first part. Predetermined spatial relationship is defined in more than three degrees of freedom. Positioning second part relative to first part includes controlling machine to move second part relative to first part in more than three degrees of freedom. Machine is controlled to hold first and second parts in predetermined spatial relationship while performing an operation to fix both parts in predetermined spatial relationship. Second part is not in direct contact with any other part of article when first and second parts are in predetermined spatial relationship, at least not in a manner which would interfere with or influence or affect predetermined spatial relationship.

Abstract: A non-Cartesian coordinate positioning machine is provided that comprises an extendable leg assembly for positioning a component such as a measurement probe within a working volume of the machine, and a constraint member associated with the extendable leg assembly for providing a predetermined part of the extendable leg assembly with substantially a same orientation relative to gravity for a same position of the component within the working volume. In a preferred embodiment, the orientation relative to gravity is maintained substantially constant, so that a plane defined by the predetermined part is substantially aligned with gravity, as the component is moved around the working volume.

Abstract: There are disclosed novel 5-substituted 7-amino-[1,3]thiazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine derivatives of formula (I) wherein R1, R2, R3, R4 and R5 are as defined in the specification, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, together with processes for their preparation, pharmaceutical compositions comprising them and their use in therapy. The compounds of formula (I) are CX3CR1 receptor antagonists and are thereby particularly useful in the treatment or prophylaxis of neurodegenerative disorders, demyelinating disease, cardio- and cerebrovascular atherosclerotic disorders, peripheral artery disease, rheumatoid arthritis, pulmonary diseases such as COPD, asthma or pain.

Abstract: A wireless device is described that comprises a spread spectrum radio-frequency (RF) communications portion, such as a Bluetooth module, and an ancillary RF receiver portion. The spread spectrum RF communications portion is activated on receipt of a characteristic RF signal by the ancillary RF receiver portion. The ancillary RF receiver portion may consume substantially less power than the spread spectrum RF communications portion thereby allowing a low power standby mode to be implemented. The wireless device may be a measurement probe, such as a temperature probe, for use with machine tools and the like. An interface for transmitting the characteristic RF signal is also described.

Abstract: Apparatus for a co-ordinate positioning machine is described that comprises an articulating probe head for supporting a measurement probe. The articulating probe head comprises at least one electric motor. Heating means are provided for generating heat in the articulating probe head. The heating means may be the motors or discrete heating elements. Temperature sensing means, such as one or more temperature sensors, is also provided for determining the temperature at the articulating probe head. The apparatus allows the temperature of the articulating probe head to be controlled.

Abstract: A three-dimensional (3D) view of a data collection based on an attribute is disclosed. A timeline is provided for displaying files and folders. The timeline may include a focal group that displays detailed information about its contents to the user. Remaining items on the timeline are displayed in less detail and may be positioned to appear further away from the user. A histogram may be provided as part of the view to allow the user to more easily navigate the timeline to find a desired file or folder.
