  • Patent number: 11379093
    Abstract: A method performed by a computing system includes generating a to-do list user interface comprising a user actuatable list element corresponding to a particular entry on a to-do list associated with a user, and a user input mechanism actuatable to perform a to-do list management function comprising at least one of adding a new entry on the to-do list, deleting an existing entry on the to-do list, and modifying an existing entry on the to-do list. The method includes generating an agenda associated with the user, the agenda comprising an agenda item having an associated time period, and detecting a flick gesture on the user actuatable list element on the to-do list user interface, and adding, based on the detected flick gesture, an agenda item to the agenda associated with the user, the added agenda item corresponding to the particular entry on the to-do list.

  • Patent number: 11003314
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and software for implementing enhanced menu presentation technology. In at least one implementation, a user interface to a personal information service is presented by a suitable computing system. The user interface includes a viewing pane and an information panel in which various personal information items may be organized. In response to a selection of any of the personal information items for viewing, content associated with the item is presented in the viewing pane. In addition, in response to an identification of an action group that includes multiple ones of the personal information items, an action menu is presented in at least a portion of a space in the user interface occupied by the viewing pane.

  • Patent number: 10620789
    Abstract: A to-do list management system surfaces a user interface with a user input mechanism that displays a user actuatable element for each item on a user's to-do list. It senses a flick gesture and automatically moves a to-do list item to the user's agenda. It can also sense a user input gesture and automatically remove an agenda item from the user's agenda, and place it on the user's to-do list.
