摘要:
A method of tracking data objects is provided in accordance with an aspect of the invention. The method includes the step of storing in a workspace memory a first data object having first data object attributes. The method includes the step of storing in a palette memory the first data object where the first data object attributes do not match all attributes of any preexisting data object stored in the palette memory. The method includes the step of generating on a workspace window the first data object. The first data object is in accordance with the first data object attributes. The method includes the step of generating on a palette window a first thumbnail. The first thumbnail is a depiction of the first data object scaled to a predetermined size. A method for using a graphical computer application is also providing according to another aspect of the invention.

A method of processing annotations is provided in accordance with an aspect of the present invention. The method includes the step of loading a plurality of annotations into a memory, each annotation being defined by properties. The method includes the step of displaying in a workspace window a first visual representation of each of the annotations. The method includes the step of receiving a filter command which specifies a condition which may be operative to derive an included annotation set and an excluded annotation set. The method includes deriving a second visual representation of each of the annotations of the excluded annotation set different from the first visual representations of the annotations of the excluded annotation set.
摘要:
A method and system for coordinating visual content collaboration is disclosed. A collaboration session is first established from a server with a plurality of participant nodes. The visual content is transmitted to each of the participant nodes. A session data object is received by the collaboration server from a first one of the participant nodes, and may include view parameters specific to the display of the visual content thereon. A session record entry is generated from the received session data object, and is then transmitted from the collaboration server to one or more of the participant nodes. The view parameters are then applied to the receiving participant nodes.

摘要:
A method for tracking annotations on a document is contemplated. A first annotation defined by a plurality of first annotation attributes is received. Thereafter, a primary visual representation of the first annotation is generated according to the first annotation attributes. The method continues with associating an action identifier with the first annotation as an action link. A thumbnail representation of the first annotation is generated in a toolbox window. A second annotation defined by a plurality of second annotation attributes and associated with the action identifier derived from the action link for the first annotation is linkable to the document in response to a selection input of the thumbnail representation of the first annotation.
摘要:
An annotation method for a three-dimensional model is disclosed. A first set of data representative of a three-dimensional model is stored in a computer memory. A second set of data representative of an annotation is also stored in the computer memory. The annotation is associated with a first spatial location on the three-dimensional model and a first display view. The three-dimensional model and a first graphical representation of the annotation is displayed according to the first display view, with the annotation being positioned as specified by the associated first spatial location. The displaying of the three-dimensional model is modified to a second display view different from the first display view. The annotation is removed from the display window, and an annotation indicator associated with the annotation is displayed. The annotation indicator is visible independent of any display view of the three-dimensional model.
摘要:
There is provided a method for use with a software application. The method includes a step of generating a palette window having a drawing mode and a properties mode. The method includes a step of generating on the palette window in the drawing mode a first thumbnail representative of a first data object having first attributes associated therewith. The first thumbnail is operative to initiate placement on a workspace window a second data object having second attributes derived from the first attributes. The method includes a step of generating on the palette window in the properties mode a first icon representative one of the first attributes. There is also provided a method for using such computer application.
