Patent number: 8140962Abstract: Dynamically selecting which properties to display for a group of resources is provided. A selection of a group of resources is received to be viewed in a graphical user interface. A determination is made as to whether the group of resources is one of a plurality of previously saved groups of resources. Responsive to the group of resources being one of the plurality of previously saved groups of resources, a determination is made as to whether the previously saved group of resources has an associated saved group of properties. Responsive to the previously saved group of resources having the associated saved group of properties, a table is generated that comprises the previously saved group of resources and the associated saved group of properties. The table is then displayed to a user via a graphical user interface.Type: GrantFiled: April 10, 2008Date of Patent: March 20, 2012Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Randal L.
