Patent number: 10908786Abstract: Application extension management may be provided. A plurality of related documents may be scanned to determine whether an activation trigger associated with an application extension has been triggered. In response to determining that the activation trigger associated with the application extension has been triggered, the application extension may be triggered and a user interface element associated with the application extension may be displayed according to a display rule.Type: GrantFiled: December 9, 2019Date of Patent: February 2, 2021Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: David Claux, Jason Todd Henderson, Oleg Ouliankine, Michael Anthony Faoro

Patent number: 10862840Abstract: A compose form for drafting a message is presented inline within a window along with a message list. For example, instead of overlaying the message application's user interface (UI) with a new window for composing a message, the compose form is displayed within a portion of the window reserved for viewing content of messages. While composing the message using the compose form, the rest of the message application's UI remains visible and accessible to the user. For example, the user may navigate to another folder and/or move to another message/conversation by interacting with the tree view/message list view. A draft of the message being composed may be automatically saved when the user navigates away from the compose form (e.g. by selecting another conversation in the list view).Type: GrantFiled: April 23, 2018Date of Patent: December 8, 2020Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: David Pierre Marcel Claux, Michael Anthony Faoro, John Leslie Gibbon, Jason Todd Henderson, Chao-Chung Lin, Robert Steven Meyer, Andrew John Sullivan, Guojun Yu

Patent number: 10725632Abstract: Techniques for providing an in-place contextual menu and user interface for email and other information management system triage are provided in which a contextual menu can be overlaid or replace an item on a view screen. The contextual menu can provide action commands specific to the type and state of the items selected in the feature view of the email or other information management system. A single recognized selection input, such as a swipe gesture, selects an item and invokes an in-place contextual menu presenting actions that can be asserted on the selected item. Multiple item selection is available through the same invocation of presenting the in-place contextual menu.Type: GrantFiled: July 26, 2017Date of Patent: July 28, 2020Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Jeffrey K. Feiereisen, Yung-Cheng Chen, Ryan Thomas Murphy, Eva Britta Karolina Burlin, Michael Anthony Faoro, Kenneth Fern, Michael R. Gow, Chao-Chung Lin, Joseph McLaughlin

Patent number: 10154381Abstract: Enhanced input field features and techniques for displaying and resolving location information in meeting items are provided. In response to a user's interaction with a place name displayed in the location field of a user interface for a meeting item, up to date information is retrieved about the location associated with the place name from a web service and displayed. The display can include a map image tile. In addition to enabling the displaying of up to date information, during creation of the meeting item, the location input field of a meeting item can present location suggestions from within the location input field, for example, as a drop-down listing of possible locations. The suggestions for completing a user's input text string to the location input field can be obtained from sources such as a web service, a mailbox, a managed database/directory service, a history cache/database or a combination thereof.Type: GrantFiled: January 5, 2017Date of Patent: December 11, 2018Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Danilo L. Benzatti, Gregory A. Bolles, Andrew Winslow Brough, Jason Andrew Cook, Michael Anthony Faoro, Vanessa Feliberti, Shivakumar Seetharaman, Yeelin Tan, Gustavo Varo
