Abstract: Non-limiting examples of the present disclosure describe an application command control user interface menu to facilitate user interaction between a user and a mobile application. An application command control menu is displayed on a display screen of a processing device. An input may be received into an application canvas of a launched application. The application canvas may be positioned above the application command control menu on the display screen. In response to a received input into the application canvas, a soft input keyboard application may be displayed. The soft input keyboard application may display below the application command control menu on the display screen. A selection may be received in the application command control menu. In response to the received selection, display of the application command control menu may be expanded to replace display on the soft input keyboard application on the display screen. Other examples are also described.

Abstract: Aspects of a system for automatically managing a pane in a user interface on a small form factor computing device include an adaptive pane module for determining when an event that affects the canvas size occurs, such as changing the display configuration or reorienting the display, which in turn affects pane management, or the opening or closing of a pane. The adaptive pane module manages the pane. After managing the pane, the system resizes the canvas and reflows the content as appropriate for a small form factor computing device.

Abstract: A wet ink texture engine and associated method. The wet ink texture engine may run in the context of any application on any device, service, or general endpoint capable of receiving ink input. For example, the wet ink texture engine may be used in the context of a note application that receives input in the form of writing or drawing. The wet ink texture engine reduces, minimizes, or eliminates lag between receiving the input and displaying the input to improve inking experience for the user.
