  • Publication number: 20250036263
    Abstract: Methods and systems for controlling window arrangements for tabbed user interface elements. An example method includes displaying a plurality of application windows including at least one application window for a web browser application having multiple open tabs, the multiple open tabs including at least one active tab and multiple inactive tabs, receiving an input to invoke a snap assist mode; in response to the input, display a snap assist user interface to reconfigure the display of one or more the plurality of the application windows, the snap assist user interface including tab representations and an application-window representation. In response to receiving a selection of a tab representation, a web browser application window is displayed with the corresponding tab as the active tab.

  • Patent number: 12169725
    Abstract: A method and system for providing access to virtual desktops may include receiving an input indicating hovering of a pointer over an icon in a toolbar, identifying one or more existing virtual desktops, determining a state for each of the one or more existing virtual desktops by identifying one or more instances of any applications that are currently running in each of the one or more existing virtual desktops and determining a running state for each of the one or more instances, and displaying a preview of each of the one or more existing virtual desktops in response to the hovering of the pointer over the icon. The preview may include displaying the running state for one of the one or more instances for each existing virtual desktop.

  • Patent number: 11755200
    Abstract: Techniques for adjusting a posture of an operating system mode for a touch-enabled computing device based on combinations of user preferences and user input modality signals. Various adjustments to the posture of the operating system mode do not impact whether particular user interface elements are present but rather alter characteristics with which these particular user interface elements are rendered. Posture adjustments to an operating system mode occur based on combinations user input modality signals and user preferences not to enter another mode in which particular user interface elements are no longer displayed within a task bar along a peripheral edge. An object of designing an operating system mode to have multiple different postures with common user interface elements displayed in the task bar while adjusting the characteristics thereof is to preserve the user familiarity across postures while optimizing graphical layouts to accommodate for a current user input modality.

  • Publication number: 20220376170
    Abstract: A magnetic structure capable of field-free spin-orbit torque switching includes a spin-orbit coupling base layer and a ferromagnetic layer formed thereon. The spin-orbit coupling base layer is made from a particular crystal material. The ferromagnetic layer has magnetization perpendicular to a plane coupled to the spin-orbit coupling base layer, and is made from a particular ferromagnetic material with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. The perpendicular magnetization of the ferromagnetic layer is switchable by an in plane current applied to the spin-orbit coupling base layer without application of an external magnetic field. A memory device and a production method regarding the magnetic structure are also provided.
