    摘要: Described is a pluggable policy component that determines the look and feel, or windows visual experience, of a computer user interface. Window-related instructions are redirected to the policy component, while client area change instructions are provided to a substrate (into which the policy component plugs in) that includes a composition component. The plug-in policy component handles windows-related (e.g., structural or attribute) changes to a scene graph to construct and maintain the scene graph, while the substrate handles program content changes to the client areas within windows. The substrate may include a desktop window manager that has access to the client areas in the scene graph, whereby the desktop window manager can copy a client area for rendering. For example, the desktop window manager can provide a supplemental live thumbnail image of a window.

    摘要: A multiple-level graphics processing system and method (e.g., of an operating system) for providing improved graphics output including, for example, smooth animation. One such multiple-level graphics processing system comprises two components, including a tick-on-demand or slow-tick high-level component, and a fast-tick (e.g., at the graphics hardware frame refresh rate) low-level component. In general, the high-level, less frequent component performs computationally intensive aspects of updating animation parameters and traversing scene data structures, in order to pass simplified data structures to the low-level component. The low-level component operates at a higher frequency, such as the frame refresh rate of the graphics subsystem, to process the data structures into constant output data for the graphics subsystem. The low-level processing includes interpolating any parameter intervals as necessary to obtain instantaneous values to render the scene for each frame of animation.

    摘要: Described is an adaptive scheduler associated with a desktop window manager that dynamically controls the rate at which graphics frames are composed. Values corresponding to performance when composing a frame are measured, and the frame composition rate is adjusted as necessary based on the values. The measured data is sampled to provide smooth adjustments. The sampled data is evaluated as to whether the current frame rate is too slow, too fast, or acceptable. If too slow, the frame rate may increased relative to the refresh rate, while if too fast, the frame rate is decreased relative to the refresh rate. In one implementation, the frame rate is too fast if a count of missed frames achieves a missed threshold value, or if a count of late frames achieves a late threshold value. The frame rate is too slow if a count of early frames exceeds an early threshold value.

    摘要: The visual output of legacy child windows intended for display on a non-legacy parent are redirected to an off-screen bitmap buffer. A display component having enhanced visual functionality processes the output of the legacy child window with any of a number of visual effects. The display component composes the parent window by combining the non-legacy visual output with the processed output of the legacy child window. In this way, visual enhancements that have been technologically unavailable to the legacy child windows may be applied to the legacy child windows when used in combination with a new-technology parent window.

    摘要: An application program interface may be used to construct a three-dimensional (3D) scene of 3D models defined by model 3D objects. The interface has one or more group objects and one or more leaf objects. The group objects contain or collect other group objects and/or leaf objects. The leaf objects may be drawing objects or an illumination object. The group objects may have transform operations to transform objects collected in their group. The drawing objects define instructions to draw 3D models of the 3D scene or instructions to draw 2D images on the 3D models. The illumination object defines the light type and direction illuminating the 3D models in the 3D scene. A method processes a tree hierarchy of computer program objects constructed with objects of the application program interface. The method traverses branches of a 3D scene tree hierarchy of objects to process group objects and leaf objects. The method detects whether the next unprocessed object is a group object of a leaf object. If it is a leaf object, the method detects whether the leaf object is a light object or a drawing 3D object. If the leaf object is a light object, the illumination of the 3D scene is set. If a drawing 3D object is detected, a 3D model is drawn as illuminated by the illumination. The method may also performs a group operation on the group of objects collected by a group object.

    摘要: A method and system for rendering a desktop on a computer using a composited desktop model operating system are disclosed. A composited desktop window manager, upon receiving base object and content object information for one or more content objects from an application program, draws the window to a buffer memory, and takes advantage of advanced graphics hardware and visual effects to render windows based on content on which they are drawn. The frame portion of each window may be generated by pixel shading a bitmap having the appearance of frosted glass based on the content of the desktop on top of which the frame is displayed. Legacy support is provided so that the operating system can draw and render windows generated by legacy applications to look consistent with non-legacy application windows.
