Abstract: A system wherein multiple computers engage in a video conference. The invention creates a common visual image which is displayed by all computers. However, the invention does not distribute a bit map of the image to all computers. Instead, the invention distributes the commands from which the image is created.Further, the distributed commands rely on data structures, which define parameters such as pen color, background color, line width, etc. The data structures are stored in each computer. When a data structure is changed, the invention does not immediately inform all other computers of the change, but waits until necessary.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for managing palettes in collaborative systems. This includes one or more host computers connected to one or more remote computers, wherein an image displayed on the host computer is substantially simultaneously displayed on the remote computer. The invention recognizes when a change is made to a system palette on the host computer, and communicates those changes to the remote computer. A logical palette is created on the remote computer to reflect the system palette on the host computer, and the changes made therein. A system palette on the remote computer may be updated to reflect the logical palette, and the changes made therein, depending upon whether the collaborative system is active or idle. When sharing images between the host computer and the remote computer, the images must first be translated from their device dependent format using the system palette on the host computer into a device independent image.
