摘要： Methods and arrangements to control pop-up windows are contemplated. Embodiments include transformations, code, state machines or other logic to deny focus to a pop-up window that is generated within a pop-up delay interval of input activity on the part of a user. In some embodiments, the pop-up delay interval may be a default value such as ten seconds. In other embodiments, the pop-up delay interval is configurable. In some embodiments, the pop-up window may be granted focus after the user ceases input activity for the pop-up delay interval. In some embodiments, the pop-up window may be displayed without focus. Some of these embodiments may modify the region of the screen in which the pop-up window is displayed. In some embodiments, the pop-up window may be displayed in a portion of the screen that does not overlap with the portion of the window that does have focus. In some embodiments, the user may be notified that a pop-up window was displayed without focus. In some embodiments, the user may disable the denial of focus to pop-up windows. In some embodiments, the user may exempt classes of pop-up windows from the denial of focus.

摘要： A method and a computer program product that enable files in a file directory to be queued or marked prior to “sending” the files to a common application. A background operating system (OS) is enhanced by including a set of queue functions/options for selection when a file is selected within a file directory. Among these additional functions/options are “Queue It”, “Queue Edit”, and “Queue Send To.” These queue functions each represent an action item that may be selected to carry out a specific function/operation on/with one or more pre-selected (or queued) files. The “Queue It” function allows the user to mark one or more file(s) or add the file's location and other parameters to a queue. When there is at least one file in the queue, the “Queue Edit” function allows the user to view, sort, and delete files in the queue. Finally, the “Queue Send To” function triggers the import of the queued and/or selected files into the selected application.

摘要： A user connected to a remote printer can choose to activate a print-monitoring feature of the printer as part of the submitted print job. As the job begins to print, the output of the printer is monitored for print quality. If an event occurs during the print job that affects the print job, the user receives real-time notification of the status of the print job. The events can be printer related such as paper jam or print job related such as poor print quality. The user can have an option of reviewing various parts of the print job during the printing process. There can also be an automatic print job out evaluation. If the user accepts the print quality, the printer will continue printing the job. If the user is not satisfied with the print quality, the job is halted and sent to a temporary print buffer. While the job is halted, adjustments are made to either the printer to improve print quality or to the print parameters of the print job to improve print quality.

摘要翻译： 连接到远程打印机的用户可以选择在提交的打印作业的一部分激活打印机的打印监视功能。 随着作业开始打印，打印机的输出被监控打印质量。 如果在打印作业期间发生影响打印作业的事件，用户将收到打印作业状态的实时通知。 这些事件可能与打印机相关，如卡纸或打印作业相关，如打印质量差。 用户可以选择在打印过程中查看打印作业的各个部分。 还可以进行自动打印作业评估。 如果用户接受打印质量，打印机将继续打印作业。 如果用户对打印质量不满意，则暂停作业并将其发送到临时打印缓冲区。 当作业停止时，调整打印机以提高打印质量或打印作业的打印参数，以提高打印质量。
