Abstract:
An embodiment provides a product comprising a machine-readable medium and machine-executable instructions for causing a computer to perform a method comprising providing a first array of information elements adapted to be expanded into at least one other array of information elements on a display. Another embodiment provides a method of displaying information elements on a display of a computer system with arrays of information elements, the method comprising displaying a first array of information elements, expanding the first array of information elements into at least one other array of information elements, wherein the first array of information elements and the at least one other array of information elements have a commonality. A system and a graphical user interface providing same are equally provided herein.
Abstract:
Is provided herein a method of non-homogeneously magnifying objects comprising providing an information element adapted to be displayed on a display and surrounded by a margin thereof; displaying the information element and its margin on a display; defining a standardized object adapted to respectively include therein the information element and at least a portion of the margin; magnifying the standardized object; defining a size of the magnified information element by removing an unmagnified size of the at least a portion of the margin to the size of the magnified standardized object; and displaying the magnified information element with its surrounding margin.
Abstract:
An aspect of the invention hereby presented provides a means to display a first set of, for instance, documents in conjunction with a second set of documents when the second set of documents would not necessarily fit in the query used to select the documents of the first set of documents and/or would not necessarily fit the collation of the first set of documents. The second set of documents so located in relationship with the first set of documents having a beneficial effect for the understanding of the first set of documents. A system and a GUI thereof is also hereby presented.
Abstract:
The invention pertains to a method and an apparatus adapted to carry out a mechanism for managing navigation among information elements displayed on axes thereof when information elements are not displayed on a display area, the method generally comprising displaying an array, or an axis, of information elements adapted to receive thereon information elements, the array of information elements virtually extending outside a viewing area, the array of information elements including a portion thereof having no information elements thereon, and displaying an indicator of a non-displayed information element present on the axis of information elements outside the viewing area.
Abstract:
A method, a system and an interface adapted to enhance the computing power of computer systems, the method being designed to calculate the position of documents as they are displayed on computer screens. The documents are displayed on axes belonging to axes group(s). The method relates to reducing and/or minimizing the computing power necessary to identify the position of documents when they are subject to displacement caused by the movement of the axes groups to which they belong and/or of the display screen.
Abstract:
The present invention provides solutions to the potential undesirable effects the insertion and removal of information elements and documents may have on arrays and axes of information elements using a collation function to determine the position of information elements thereon. The invention can be effectuated as a method, a device and an apparatus carrying out the method described herein.

Abstract:
Is provided herein a method of non-homogeneously magnifying objects comprising providing an information element adapted to be displayed on a display and surrounded by a margin thereof; displaying the information element and its margin on a display; defining a standardized object adapted to respectively include therein the information element and at least a portion of the margin; magnifying the standardized object; defining a size of the magnified information element by removing an unmagnified size of the at least a potion of the margin to the size of the magnified standardized object; and displaying the magnified information element with its surrounding margin.
Abstract:
A method for managing information elements on axes is provided, the method comprising providing a plurality of axes of information elements adapted to display information elements thereon in a substantially rectilinear fashion, displaying at least a portion of at least one of the plurality of axes of information elements with information elements respectively displayed thereon, at least some of the information elements displayed being adapted to be selectable, to enable a first group of actions thereon, and adapted to be activated, to enable a second group of actions thereon. Another embodiment of the present invention provides a method for enabling logical functions on a basis of a plurality of axes of information elements adapted to be displayed on a display. Another embodiment of the present invention provides a method for navigating among axes of information elements identifying directions where movements of the active information element are allowed.
