    摘要: A method apparatus and application is provided for displaying wells containing objects related to objects initially displayed. The computer system has at least a visual operator interface, an operating system for operating applications within the computer system, and memory for storing the application. A new display control function called Expand to Wells is provided. The Expand to Wells function opens all the wells for any object on which it is dropped. The function applies to all objects shown. A separate one is not required for each well.

    摘要: An application, method and apparatus for revision of attributes of selected objects as controlled by a computer system. The computer system has at least a visual operator interface, an operating system for operating applications within the computer system, and memory for storing the application therein. Selected objects, such as other applications, parts of applications such as cells in a spread sheet, or real objects such as printers, are designated for selected attribute revision. A global change operation for all of the designated objects having properties to be revised is selected. The attributes are revised as desired and the revised attributes are propagated to the designated objects. Also disclosed is a method, apparatus and application for indicating the desired revisions to the attributes using a model object. The model object method, apparatus and application is an alternative embodiment of the invention.

    摘要: An application, method and apparatus for revision of a title of a window containing objects as controlled by a computer system. The computer system has at least a visual operator interface, an operating system for operating applications within the computer system, and memory for storing the application therein. A title is generated for the window containing a list of all of the parent objects, either in the window or represented by child objects in the window. The title is revised dynamically to correspond with modifications in the parent objects. The title revision is done while the window is displayed. Also a means for retaining in the title the name of a parent object even if the parent object becomes temporarily unavailable while the window is displayed. Also a means for saving the revised title so that when the window is opened again in the future, the objects are displayed. Additionally a means for closing the window if all of the objects are deleted.
