Patent number: 10845980Abstract: A technique is described herein for facilitating movement of graphical objects across display screens. In one manner of operation, the method includes: displaying a representation of a first movement as a user moves a graphical object across a source screen; detecting that the user has moved the graphical object into a graphical source portal associated with the source screen; associating the graphical object with two or more graphical destination portals provided by the plural display screens, in addition to the graphical source portal, such that the graphical object is accessible from the graphical source portal and any graphical destination portal; detecting that the user has removed the graphical object from a chosen graphical portal in a chosen screen; displaying the graphical object as having been removed from all graphical portals; and displaying a second movement as the user moves the graphical object across the chosen screen to a final destination.Type: GrantFiled: March 28, 2018Date of Patent: November 24, 2020Assignee: Micosoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Patrick Joseph Derks, Peter Eugene Hammerquist, Eric J. Hull, Sophors Khut, Cassandra April King, Christian Klein, Bryan Mamaril, Nishad Mulye, Kenton Allen Shipley, Daniel Edward Stafford
