Abstract: A system and method for filtering and organizing items from computer memories based on common elements is provided. Filters can be provided for manipulating the items, which serve as tools for narrowing down a set of items. The filters can be dynamically generated based on the properties of the separate items. The system can utilize virtual folders. The virtual folders can expose regular files and folders to users in different views based on their metadata instead of the actual physical underlying file system structure on the disk. Quick links can be provided, which serve as a set of predefined links (e.g., located on the left side of the display) that can be clicked on to generate useful views of the sets of items. Libraries, which can provide large groups of usable types of items that can be associated together, may also be used.

Abstract: An icon overlay for indicating that processing is occurring. When a user makes a selection to expand a node (e.g., a node in a tree view), the processing of the enumeration may take some time. To provide an indication to a user that processing is occurring, an icon overlay is animated over the expanding node's icon. In one embodiment, the overlay is a magnifying glass that is animated to move between three different positions that are changed on a timer. Once the processing is complete, the icon overlay is removed, and the sub-items for the node are inserted into the tree. By using an overlay, the view of the expanding node's icon is preserved as an important part of identifying its type, e.g., network domain, network computer, file system folder, etc. Multiple icon overlays may be provided for multiple expanding nodes at the same time.

Abstract translation: 用于指示处理正在发生的图标覆盖。 当用户选择展开节点（例如，树视图中的节点）时，枚举的处理可能需要一些时间。 为了向用户提供处理正在发生的指示，在扩展节点的图标上动画图标重叠。 在一个实施例中，覆盖物是放大镜，其被动画以在定时器上改变的三个不同位置之间移动。 处理完成后，图标叠加层将被删除，节点的子项被插入到树中。 通过使用覆盖，扩展节点的图标的视图被保留为识别其类型的重要部分，例如网络域，网络计算机，文件系统文件夹等。可以为同一个扩展节点提供多个图标覆盖 时间。

Abstract: A method and system are provided in which static lists facilitate arbitrary grouping of items of data independent of their locations and in ways that are meaningful to the user. A static list is a set of items defined by a root item, a direction, and the entry relationships with that root item in that direction. The static list also defines the properties that each entry relationship in the list is required to have. Verbs are provided to manage a static list. A verb is an action that may be performed on the items in the static list, and includes, among others, move, copy, add, remove, and delete. A view is provided to specify characteristics for displaying data from a static list, including visibility, order, and formatting, among other characteristics.

Abstract: A file system shell is provided. One aspect of the shell provides virtual folders which expose regular files and folders to users in different views based on their metadata instead of the actual physical underlying file system structure on the disk. Users are able to work with the virtual folders through direct manipulation (e.g., clicking and dragging, copying, pasting, etc.). Filters are provided for narrowing down sets of items. Quick links are provided which can be clicked on to generate useful views of the sets of items. Libraries are provided which consist of large groups of usable types of items that can be associated together, along with functions and tools related to the items. A virtual address bar is provided which comprises a plurality of segments, each segment corresponding to a filter for selecting content. A shell browser is provided with which users can readily identify an item based on the metadata associated with that item. An object previewer in a shell browser is provided which is configured to display a plurality of items representing multiple item types.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method and system for use in a computing environment for representing files stored in stacks. The method includes providing a set of stack icons, each icon in the set having a stack height representing a range of stack sizes. The method additionally includes determining a stack size for a selected stack and selecting and displaying an appropriate stack icon from the set of stack icons based on the determined stack size. The selected stack may be stored within one of multiple libraries. Accordingly a distinct set of icons relevant to each library may be stored for each library. The icons may visibly convey information pertaining to the relevant library. Accordingly, the method may include representing a selected stack by determining an appropriate library and an appropriate stack height and displaying a corresponding icon. The system may additionally include an empty stack icon, a generic stack icon, property based icons, and custom thumbnail icons.

Abstract translation: 本发明涉及一种在计算环境中用于表示堆栈中存储的文件的方法和系统。 该方法包括提供一组堆栈图标，集合中的每个图标具有表示堆栈大小范围的堆栈高度。 该方法还包括确定所选择的堆栈的堆栈大小，并且基于所确定的堆栈大小从该组堆栈图标中选择和显示适当的堆栈图标。 所选择的堆栈可以存储在多个库之一中。 因此，可以为每个库存储与每个库相关的一组独特的图标。 这些图标可能会显示相关图书馆的信息。 因此，该方法可以包括通过确定适当的库和适当的堆栈高度来显示所选择的堆栈并显示相应的图标。 该系统可以另外包括空堆栈图标，通用堆栈图标，基于属性的图标和自定义缩略图图标。

Abstract: A universal content representation system (“UCRS”) implements techniques for universally representing digital content such as files, device information, and applications across a group of electronic devices that includes at least a source electronic device and a remote electronic device. Proxy content items, which correspond with items of content (“source content items”) stored on the source electronic device, are data stores for the corresponding source content items, and visually represent the corresponding source content items on the remote electronic device, whether the source electronic device is online or offline. A user of the remote electronic devices uses the proxy content items to search for and view source content items prior to requesting full access to the source content items. From time-to-time, source content items and proxy content items are synchronized with each other.

Abstract translation: 通用内容表示系统（“UCRS”）实现了在包括至少源电子设备和远程电子设备的一组电子设备中普遍地表示诸如文件，设备信息和应用的数字内容的技术。 存储在源电子设备上的与内容项（“源内容项”）相对应的代理内容项是用于对应的源内容项的数据存储，并且在远程电子设备上可视地表示对应的源内容项， 源电子设备在线或离线。 远程电子设备的用户在请求完全访问源内容项目之前使用代理内容项目来搜索和查看源内容项目。 来自时间的源内容项和代理内容项彼此同步。
