  • Patent number: 10168876
    Abstract: A computer processor receives a selection to create a duplicate cursor in addition to a default cursor. The computer processor determines a first position corresponding to a default cursor, and the computer processor stores information about the first position. The computer processor determines a second position in which to create the duplicate cursor, and the computer processor stores information about the second position. The computer processor receives data input for the first position corresponding to the default cursor. The computer processor recalls the information of the first position and the information of the second position, and the computer processor duplicates the data input, which is received, at the first position and at the second position.

  • Patent number: 9563333
    Abstract: In general, embodiments of the present invention provide an approach to control computer-based interfaces from anywhere in a GUI (e.g. a window, a desktop, etc.) regardless of the fixed position of the instances. Specifically, using a pointing device or the like (e.g., by right clicking), a user can activate an instance control function that allows the user to open an instance, close an instance, and/or or switch between running instances. Along these lines, the instance control function can be activated by interacting with an icon, a window (e.g., corresponding a folder or a running instance), or a desktop. Once activated, the instance control function allows the user full control over instances.
