  • Patent number: 9959263
    Abstract: The subject disclosure relates to configurable multi-view data entry. When a user encounters a form field with a complex data type, depending on the invoking mechanism, either automatic when on focus, or through a user gesture such as clicking on an icon in the form field, the form field expands to multiple form fields including the original form field. The multiple form fields can allow the user to enter in each separate data item that makes up the complex data type. As data items are entered, the data items can be combined into a correct format and displayed in the original form field.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9098472
    Abstract: The subject disclosure relates to providing more effective visual cues for distinguishing between files based upon file types. Given that users typically browse and select files based upon their file types, and further that various collections of files often share identical or similar naming conventions, the subject disclosure provides a useful mechanism to reduce the need for close inspection of file names in order to locate desired files. In particular, various file types can be assigned to a set of groups and each group can be associated with a particular color. Thus, visual representations (e.g., icons or tabs) of the various files can be presented with a color-coded element to serve as the visual cue.
