  • Patent number: 11947788
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer readable medium for determining a current drop target during a drag and drop operation are disclosed. The method includes during the drag and drop operation, detecting an event that indicates that a draggable item has moved. The method further includes determining whether a previous location of the draggable item was over a first drop target prior to the detected event, and determining whether a current location of the draggable item is over a second drop target. The method further includes determining whether to continue selecting the first drop target as the current drop target or to select the second drop target as the current drop target depending on the previous and current location of the draggable item, and a stickiness of the first drop target.

  • Patent number: 11880696
    Abstract: A system provides a design interface for designing and implementing graphical user interfaces that users can access through web browsers. Depending on the configuration of the graphical user interfaces, the users may be able to monitor and control industrial processes by interacting with components that correspond to the industrial processes as displayed in user interfaces at client devices. The design interface includes functionality for selecting preprogrammed components, or for generating new components for display. The design interface further allows designers to associate data values received from a variety of sources with properties of the components in the user interfaces. In particular, properties associated with a component of an interface are stored in property tree structures, making dynamic changes to the components possible. Data bindings between subtrees representing components and sets of data from industrial and other sources allows for designs that scale with the availability of the data.

    Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for software development or modification. Systems transform interactions with physical blocks by a human developer on an activity surface into computer-understandable digital information or logic for developing or modifying software (e.g., websites or mobile applications) in real-time or near real-time. The physical blocks are representative of software elements used in software development. For example, the structures, colors, shapes or hardness/softness/squeeze/bend/flex/elastic/shape-memory/rigid properties, whether symmetrical or asymmetrical, whether open-shaped or close-shaped of the physical blocks can determine which software elements are being developed and the arrangement of the blocks can be mapped to how the software elements are to be included in the software. Users located remotely from the developer can provide annotations or feedback to the software being developed in real-time.

  • Patent number: 11449212
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for animating a drag gesture are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes the actions of receiving a user input that drags a user interface element along a user-induced path across a display. The actions further include moving the user interface element along the user-induced path across the display. The actions further include determining that the user input has ceased. The actions further include determining an additional path and a speed for the user interface element to move along the additional path based on the user-induced path and a speed of the user input. The actions further include moving the user interface element along the additional path to a resting location at the determined speed for the user interface element to move along the additional path.

  • Patent number: 11409405
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to an artificial reality system orchestrating interactions between virtual object “augments.” The orchestration can include linking, which can be forming two or more augments into a combination, embedding an augment within an existing combination, or triggering an action mapped to the linking of those augments. Another type of orchestration can include extracting, which can refer to taking an augment out of an existing combination, either by removing it from the combination or copying the augment to leave a version in the combination and having another version outside the combination.

  • Patent number: 11372520
    Abstract: A display input apparatus includes a display device, an operation device, and a control device. When, with a first page containing an arrangement of icons being displayed on the display device, the control device detects through the operation device a predetermined first operation of selecting a plurality of icons from the arrangement of icons on the first page and grouping the plurality of selected icons, the control device generates a group icon into which the plurality of icons are consolidated and allows the display device to display the group icon on the first page. When the control device detects through the operation device a predetermined second operation of moving the group icon from the first page to a second page different from the first page, the control device allows the display device to move the group icon to the second page and display the group icon on the second page.
