A method for providing an Integrated Development Environment comprises receiving input from a user identifying an area containing an edge shared by two or more objects, wherein said shared edge includes two or more individual edges corresponding to said objects, and visibly separating said two or more individual edges in a localized exploded view responsive to said receiving.

Methods and systems for using artwork to develop computer applications in ways that preserve the artwork's appearance and layout, including by importing the artwork and selectively replacing potions with functional components. One embodiment comprises a method for developing an application that involves displaying artwork in a design view area. The method may involve displaying artwork comprising a list representation comprising a plurality of list item representations and identifying each list item representation as a group of one or more subitem representations. The method may further comprise determining a list layout for list items using the list item representations of the artwork and inserting a list as a component in the design view area. This list may determine or otherwise be used to determine the positions of either the list item representations or list items replacing the list item representations. These positions may be determined based on the list layout that was determined.

A system and method for maintaining a Web site is disclosed that includes browsing to a Web page to be edited, automatically downloading a source file for the Web page including related files associated with display of the Web page, editing the source file, and automatically publishing the edited source file to a file transfer server associated with the Web site including the related files associated with the display of the Web page.

The inventive editor allows web authors to edit HTML visually while preserving the HTML source document. The editor preserves the structure and format of the HTML, and permits simultaneous modeless visual and source document editing. When an edit is made with the invention, only the HTML source around that edit is updated, rather than rewriting the whole HTML source document. Furthermore, when an edit is made, the new HTML source code is outputted in a format that is specified by the user. In order to preserve the format of the document, format information is stored in the parsed tree. The format of the node is preserved when its source is regenerated; edits to the node will reformat it according to user preferences. In order to preserve the structure of the document, invalid HTML structures are maintained and not corrected. The invention will either support the invalid structure by reflecting such structure in the parsed tree, and thus allow for editing of the structure, or the invention will not support such a structure, and represent such structures as invalid nodes. Moreover, the invention also maintains structure while editing, as the structure and format of the document is only minimally modified during editing, i.e. only the nodes affected by the edits are restructured and reformatted, and the remainder of the document is unmodified.

Automatic detection and implementation of modifications to an application are described. A new base model of the application is generated using the edited version of the application. This base model is simulated to a selected state, resulting in a new presentation model that includes a tree of multiple objects described by the new base model at the selected state, and a pointer for each node of the tree that points back to the associated node in the new base model. The pointers of each node of the new presentation model are compared to the nodes of the previous presentation model of the application and then replaced with those corresponding nodes in the previous presentation model when the nodes are equivalent. Otherwise, the nodes of the new presentation model are maintained.
摘要:
A development environment is described that includes identifying relevant code or rules applicable to various elements of a hierarchical document and displaying the relevant code or rules to a user within a display interface of the development environment. The system recognizes document elements highlighted by a user and searches through a data structure of the code or rules applied to the hierarchical document for code or rules that expressly reference the element selected by the user. The system then searches the data structure of the code or rules applied to the parent elements of the selected element. The discovered code or rules are then displayed to the user in the development environment along with any properties that are associated with the code or rules. The development system determines which of the properties do not apply to the selected element and render a marker indicating the non-applicability of that property.
摘要:
Certain embodiments facilitate collaboration between designers and developers in the creation of software applications. Designers and developers can work on the same multi-file-based software development project, without the designer having to address or even be aware of the multi-file structure of the project or the management of different versions of the project. Instead the designer can receive and send the project as a single file and work with it as if it were a single document. A developer or another user can address conflicts and other versioning issues that may result from collaborators making changes concurrently.
摘要:
A system and method are described for automatically generating style sheet formatting for stylistic edits to a Web page in a Web development environment. The Web development environment detects the user's selection of particular content of the Web page and captures any stylistic changes that the user makes to the content. Using the stylistic changes, the Web development environment searches a style data structure to determine whether any style rules already exist that correspond to the user's stylistic changes. If the Web development environment does not find a pre-existing style rule, it automatically generates one or more style rules for the stylistic edits and associates those rules with the selected content. If a pre-existing style rule exists within the style data structure, the Web development environment assigns the pre-existing style rule to the selected content.
