摘要： The present invention provides a system and method for convenient display of a user interface providing dynamic information. The user interface may contain a designated area that provides the dynamic information and a predetermined location. When a cursor hovers over the predetermined location, the user interface may be displayed in front of any overlapping element on the display. The user interface may be displayed behind the overlapping elements on the display when the cursor is moved away from the user interface or predetermined location.

摘要： A system and method for resizing tiles on a computer display is provided. The tiles are automatically sized until a user takes control after which the user may manually size the tiles. Size limits may be set for the tiles. If an attempt is made to automatically resize a tile above a specified limit, then a notification may be sent to the user requesting approval for the new tile size. If the user does not approve the new size, then the tile will be placed in a manual sizing mode in which further automatic resizing is limited. If the user approves the new size, then further automatic resizing may occur without requesting further approval. The tiles are prevented from being automatically resized too frequently, which could be distracting or annoying to a user.

摘要： Aspects of the present invention are directed to the stacking of visual items, and their subsequent expansion, or unstacking. Upon selection of a stack, that stack expands into the individual visual items making up that stack. Further aspects of the present invention are directed to expanding a stack in different ways depending upon the circumstances. Further aspects of the present invention are directed to providing a hot area associated with, and potentially disposed around, a stack. Selection by the user of the hot area results in selection of the associated stack. The stack may itself be considered a single item that is itself selectable. After the stack is expanded, then the individual visual items making up the original stack are each individually selectable. However, when stacked, the individual items may not be selectable except as a complete stack.

摘要： A system and related techniques to collect and manage a set of incoming message notification objects, such as instant message notifications, email notifications, download notifications, transaction notifications and others and present those objects to the user an icon, tile or other representation on a dynamically scaled timeline. According to embodiments, the dynamically scaled timeline may present the most recently received object farthest to the right on a notifications bar or facility, and slide objects to the left to represent that passage of time as those objects age. Instead of presenting those objects on a linear scale, according to the invention the time intervals in which the objects may be presented may be scaled to cause the oldest message objects to be presented on a relatively compressed dimension. The most recently received messages in contrast may be presented on wider intervals, to permit the user to perceive the differences in arrival of those items more clearly. According to embodiments, when more than one message object slides to an overlapping point with another, those objects may be stacked into a cascading message stack. When two or more stacks touch, they may be merged into a single stack. According to embodiments of the invention in another regard, when the user hovers over a given message object a popup box may appear which displays attributes of that object, such as message or other notification type, the date and time which the object was received, the source of the underlying message or other data. In further embodiments, one or more of the message notification objects may be clickable or otherwise reactivatable to reveal actions, dialogs, inputs or other interactions which were presented at the time the message was originally received, such as a query box to input a password or a selection for an email address.

摘要： A fuel metering assembly includes a solenoid fluidly coupled between a fuel supply and a cooking appliance. A timer is electrically coupled to a power source. The timer is additionally electrically coupled to the solenoid such that the timer selectively actuates and de-actuates the solenoid. A plurality of time actuators is coupled to the timer to select a duration of time for the solenoid to be actuated. A display is coupled to the timer. The display displays numerals indicating the selected duration of time. A control is electrically coupled to the timer. A primary actuator is coupled to the control. The primary actuator is engaged by a user such that the timer actuates the solenoid for the selected duration of time. A light emitter is coupled to the control. The light emitter emits light when the primary solenoid is actuated.
