    摘要： The display system includes at least one central processing unit (CPU) which is coupled through appropriate input/output (I/O) circuitry to input devices, such as a keyboard, digital pad, mouse and/or trackball. The CPU is coupled to a hard disk drive for the storage of programs and data, and may also be coupled to a network through which the CPU may communicate with a variety of other system resources and devices. The CPU is further coupled to a display device such as a CRT or liquid crystal display, on which the present invention is displayed. The windows include defined areas having window features such as menu bars, command options, text, icons and/or button functions to be executed by the CPU. The help system includes an access window having topics, index and look for button functions for selection by a user. Through the use of the topics, index or look for functions, a help inquiry is defined which results in the CPU generating and displaying a presentation window on the display. Both the access and presentation windows "float" above all other layered windows being displayed regardless of the application currently being executed by the user. Both the access and presentation windows remain active and may be operated upon by the user, as does the top most window immediately below the access or presentation windows being displayed. Other layered windows under the top most application window are inactive, and must be brought to the "top" of the stack immediately below the access or presentation window to be operated upon.

    摘要翻译： 显示系统包括至少一个中央处理单元（CPU），其通过适当的输入/输出（I / O）电路耦合到诸如键盘，数字键盘，鼠标和/或轨迹球之类的输入设备。 CPU耦合到硬盘驱动器以用于存储程序和数据，并且还可以耦合到网络，CPU可以通过该网络与各种其他系统资源和设备进行通信。 CPU还耦合到显示本发明的诸如CRT或液晶显示器的显示装置。 窗口包括具有Windows要由CPU执行的窗口特征的定义区域，例如菜单栏，命令选项，文本，图标和/或按钮功能。 帮助系统包括具有主题，索引和查找用于用户选择的按钮功能的访问窗口。 通过使用主题，索引或查找功能，定义帮助查询，这将导致CPU在显示屏上生成和显示演示窗口。 无论用户当前正在执行的应用程序如何，访问和呈现窗口都将“浮动”在所有其他分层窗口之上。 访问和呈现窗口都保持活动状态，并且可以由用户操作，正如正在显示的访问或呈现窗口正下方的最上面的窗口。 在最上面的应用程序窗口下的其他分层窗口是不活动的，并且必须被带到正在操作的访问或演示窗口下方的堆栈的“顶部”。

    摘要： The present invention comprises a method and apparatus for receiving data analysis instructions from a user and for displaying results of the data analysis to the user. In one embodiment, the invention provides a series of interface windows displayed on a computer display screen. A first window allows a user to select one or more specification files comprising reference data specifying capabilities and or resources with which other data is to be compared. A second window allows the user to select one or more data files to be compared to the one or more specification files selected using the first window. A third window allows the user to interactively select the type of analysis to be performed and provides the results of the selected analysis to the user. The third window also allows the user to interactively apply one or more filters to the results and to select the manner (view) in which the results are displayed.

    摘要： A user interface includes an object oriented graphic user interface having overlapping windows and provides an access window having topics, index and look for button functions for selection by a user. Through the use of the topics, index or look for functions, a help inquiry is defined. The selection of one of the button functions results in the generation and display of entries in a predefined area of the access window. Upon the selection of one of the entries by a user, phrases related to the selected entry are displayed in a working area of the access window. The selection of one of the phrases results in the display of a presentation window containing help instruction data to guide the user in the particular help task specified by the entry and phrase selection. To further assist the user, visual cues in the form of coach marks are generated for identifying features on the display which relate to the information disposed within the presentation window, but may identify any feature on the display. The coach marks are displayed generally concurrently with the display of the presentation window. The coach marks are displayed such that they appear animated as if drawn by hand and appear to approximate a geometric object, such as an arrow, a circle, an X, and the like. The coach marks encircle, point to, and/or underline objects, features, icons, folders and other display elements to assist the user in operating the computer system.
