Abstract: A modular rail as a wire harness mounting system uses clips and tie straps. Each clip has a clip post engaging a mounting hole and a clip head. The modular rail has a plurality of rail segments sequentially joined by toolless interlocks disposed at each longitudinal end of each rail segment. Each rail segment has a plurality of eyelets at longitudinally-spaced locations for receiving respective tie-down straps adapted to encircle the wire harness. The interlocks have complementary clasp features including a latch tab that deflects to enable engagement of each respective interlock. A bottom surface of each rail segment has a plurality of longitudinally-spaced brackets, each having a slide track configured to secure a clip head along a range of locations on the slide track. A top surface of each rail segment receives the wire harness when the wire harness is secured via the tie-down straps being inserted through respective eyelets.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes detecting a first window being displayed on a display of a host computing device, detecting graphical content on the first window, generating a second window (overlay) on the display, wherein the overlay is configured on a window layer above the first window, and changing graphical qualities of the overlay based on the detected graphical content of the first window. The graphical qualities may include at least one of a shape, size, color, transparency, or opacity of the overlay. The method can further include receiving input data corresponding to a movement of a cursor on the first window, setting a transparency of an area around the cursor to a first transparency, and setting a transparency of a remainder of the overlay to a second transparency, such that the area around the cursor appears to highlight a corresponding area of the graphical content on the first window.
