Abstract: Techniques for sharing style information between different applications and/or devices are provided. A document is displayed in a first window of a first application. The document includes user-selectable portions that each comprises at least one style information item. A menu is displayed in a second window. The menu provides a mechanism to store at least one style information item from the user-selectable portions. In response to a user selecting a user-selectable portion, menu options are provided in the menu to store at least one style information item for the selected user-selectable portion. The menu options are determined based on the style information item corresponding to the selected user-selectable portion. In response to the user selecting a menu option, the style information item corresponding to the selected menu option is stored.

Abstract: Techniques for sharing design elements between different applications and/or devices are provided. A design element is received from a first application as multiple representations, each of the multiple representations corresponding to a complementary storage format for the design element based on a design element type. The design element is stored as the multiple representations in a centrally stored library, the centrally stored library being shared among a plurality of applications. An indication to use the design element in a second application may be received. At least one of the multiple representations may be returned, as determined by the second application.

Abstract: Method and systems of visually depicting rendering data are provided. rendering data pertaining to rendering, by a display engine, of display objects in a display zone for a selected frame is accessed. Then, for the selected frame, a heat map is generated based on rendering data corresponding to the selected frame, the heat map containing a plurality of heat objects, each heat object corresponding in proportional size and location to a different display object in the display zone, each heat object displayed in a color having an intensity proportional to an amount of computational resources taken by the display engine to render the corresponding display object. Finally, the heat map is displayed.
