Abstract: An exemplary method includes a user computing device 1) executing a software application having primary, secondary, and tertiary menu levels, and 2) providing, for display as directed by the software application, a graphical user interface view that includes a first navigation control section in the form of a footer bar mapped to the primary menu level, a second navigation control section in the form of a header bar mapped to the secondary menu level, and a third navigation control section positioned between the footer bar and the header bar and mapped to the tertiary menu level. In some embodiments, the footer bar includes a slidable segment associated with selectable menu options included in a primary menu level application menu, and a fixed segment associated with a persistent selectable link to an additional software application included in a suite of software applications. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.

Abstract: An exemplary method includes an on-demand content management system detecting a user request for a content library view and displaying, in response to the request, the content library view in a graphical user interface, the content library view including a list of entries graphically representing a plurality of on-demand content instances included in a library of on-demand content, the list of entries comprising a first set of one or more entries representing one or more on-demand content instances included in the library and in a download queue and a second set of one or more entries representing one or more other on-demand content instances included in the library but not in the download queue, wherein a position of the first set of entries is prioritized over a position of the second set of entries in the list of entries. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.

Abstract: An exemplary method includes a user computing device 1) determining current states, such as current integration states and/or current operational states, of software applications included in a suite of software applications relative to the user computing device, 2) identifying, based on the current states, access options for the software applications included in the suite of software applications, and 3) providing, by the user computing device for display, a graphical user interface that includes the access options configured to be selected by a user of the user computing device to access the software applications included in the suite of software applications. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.

Abstract: An exemplary method includes a remote control emulation system directing a mobile device to display an emulation graphical user interface (“GUI”) on a display screen of the mobile device and directing the mobile device to emulate one or more user input devices by selectively positioning one or more interactive graphical depictions of one or more feature sets associated with the one or more user input devices within the emulation GUI. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.
