Abstract: In some implementations, a computer-implemented method of displaying alert information with a mobile communication device includes displaying device status indicators to a user of a mobile device in a status area; receiving information from an application to display an alert in the status area; displaying in the status area a first level of information for the alert and a user-selectable control; and displaying, in response to a selection of the user-selectable control, a second level of information for the alert that provides greater detail than the first level of information.

Abstract: In general, the present disclosure is directed to techniques for displaying, e.g., events of multiple calendars or annotations in a word processor in a single view. In one example, a method includes, providing a first calendar and a second calendar, wherein the first calendar includes a first group of calendar events at least some of which have corresponding textual event details, and wherein the second calendar includes a second group of calendar events at least some of which have corresponding textual event details; receiving a user input to select one of the first calendar or the second calendar; displaying the one or more corresponding textual event details of the first group of calendar events for the first calendar; and displaying visual representations of the second group of calendar events for the second calendar without displaying the corresponding textual event details.

Abstract: A drawer-like apparatus for storing objects for use with a data set in an application window on a digital computer. The drawer is advantageously associated with a user data set instead of with an application program or an application window. The drawer further includes a visible drawer handle displayed in the application window and a drawer storage area coupled to the visible drawer handle. Unless accessed via the visible drawer handle, at least a majority of the drawer storage area is visually hidden. The drawer storage area is capable of storing a plurality of objects, at least one of the plurality of objects stored within the drawer storage area is represented upon access by a symbolic representation within the drawer storage area. There are two types of drawers, default and customizable. Default drawers are read-only storage devices and store an unalterable number of default objects.
