  • Patent number: 11625362
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for generating folder keys and using folder keys to access folder paths. In an embodiment, a computer system may instantiate a graphical user interface (GUI) to display folder and sub-folder contents as well as a folder key. A user may input a folder key as a representation of the displayed sub-folder of the corresponding folder path. The folder key may include one or more symbols that the computer system may store and associate with the folder path. Using the folder key, the computer system may retrieve a particular sub-folder, manage security or permissions related to folders, and/or facilitate navigation between sub-folders. Using a folder key may aid a user in quickly navigating to a particular sub-folder and may allow a computer system to avoid loading unnecessary intermediate sub-folders as a user navigates to a particular desired sub-folder.

  • Publication number: 20200050906
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for scanning and identifying a physical object. An individual may send the scanned object to a recognition engine. The recognition engine may determine the nature of the physical object using an object recognition model and a semantic meaning for any written text on the physical object using a natural language processing model. User-entered context may be displayed for and received from users related to the identified physical object. An appropriate set of actions to perform in response to the scan may be determined and subsequently performed on the mobile device.

  • Publication number: 20120151311
    Abstract: Disclosed embodiments provide a system, machine-readable medium and a method that may generate user-defined task management device. A system for navigating through a number of different computer applications to complete a task. In a graphical user interface generated by a processor, a screenflow template is presented to a user via a list of screens, tasks and applications outlining steps in a process. Based on user inputs, a user-defined screenflow may be generated that incorporates screens for data entry and informational purposes, intermediate tasks for completion of the process, and computer applications for processing inputted and retrieved data. A screen of the user-defined screenflow may access data storage to obtain data required to complete the task.

  • Patent number: 7562308
    Abstract: A method of providing user input values for input controls includes receiving, in a graphical user interface wherein input controls are associated with predefined alternative input values, a first input identifying user selection of at least some of the input controls. The method includes receiving a second input identifying user selection of at least one of the predefined alternative input values that is associated with each of the selected input controls. The second input is made using one of the selected input controls. The method includes entering the selected predefined alternative input value in each of the selected input controls. The value may be automatically entered upon receiving the second input. A third input, for example made with a context menu, may be required to enter the value in the selected controls.
