  • Patent number: 11055261
    Abstract: A system is provided for enabling in-application support for topological changes to local files during remote synchronization. The techniques disclosed herein solve the problems of existing systems by mitigating conflict states and loss of edits being made to a file during synchronization. In addition, the techniques disclosed herein enable a user to interact directly with a productivity application to rename and/or move a file. The techniques disclosed herein provide an improved user experience and more efficient methods for interacting with files in that a user does not have to exit a productivity application and interact with an operating system interface to rename and/or move a file. A productivity application can operate in a server mode or a client mode depending on a validity of a requested destination location for a file.

  • Patent number: 6381390
    Abstract: A color-coded optical fiber ribbon includes a plurality of substantially parallel, adjacent, longitudinally extending optical fibers disposed, at least at a given cross section of the optical fiber ribbon, in substantially the same plane. A resin matrix material covers the optical fibers, which have at least one coating formed thereon. A color-coding identification scheme for the optical fiber ribbon is formed by coloring the optical fiber ribbon with at least two colors. A ribbon die for producing the color-coded optical fiber ribbon includes at least one coating chamber having at least one primary coating orifice for supplying a primary coating material to be applied to the optical fibers; and at least one flow guide channel for supplying a colored material in addition to the primary coating material in order to coat predetermined areas of the fiber optic ribbon so as to form the color-coding identification scheme.
