摘要： Displaying controls in a toolbar display based on the control's usage. A toolbar displays controls, including a special control for accessing a drop-off well display for those controls not fitting into the toolbar display. A Most Recently Used parameter is associated with each control and is determined by the user's selection of individual controls. When the user selects a control from the drop-off well display, the Most Recently Used parameter associated with the selected control is updated to indicate that it is the control that has been used most recently. Preferably, the toolbar display attempts to expand to incorporate the selected control. If the toolbar display can be expanded, then the selected control is added to the toolbar display and placed in the toolbar displayed in a predefined relational order. If the toolbar display cannot be expanded, then a calculation is performed to determine which controls to display in the toolbar and which controls to place in the drop-off well display. This calculation is based on the Most Recently Used parameter and the display size of the associated control. Only those most recently used controls will be displayed in the toolbar display and the remaining controls will be placed in the drop-off well display.

摘要翻译： 根据控件的用法显示工具条中的控件。 工具栏显示控件，包括用于访问不适合工具栏显示的控件的特殊控件。 最近使用的参数与每个控件相关联，并由用户对单个控件的选择决定。 当用户从下达井显示器中选择控制时，与所选择的控制相关联的最近使用的最近的参数被更新以指示它是最近使用的控制。 优选地，工具栏显示尝试扩展以包含所选择的控件。 如果可以展开工具栏显示，则将所选择的控件添加到工具栏显示并放置在以预定关系顺序显示的工具栏中。 如果工具栏显示无法展开，则执行计算，以确定要在工具栏中显示哪些控件，以及要将哪个控件放置在放样表中。 此计算基于最近使用的参数和相关控件的显示大小。 只有最近使用的控件才会显示在工具条显示中，剩下的控件将被放置在下拉菜单中。

摘要： Indicators operable to preview or show the position and relative zoom level of a field of view within a virtual space. Virtual space exploration took typically make use of a field of view for limiting a user's view of the virtual space and zooming in on a portion of the virtual space. A spherical indicator is provided to show the current position of the field of view within the virtual space, as well as provide an indication of level of zoom. A local field of view indication is also provided to show the current position of the field of view, as well as provide an indication of level of zoom, with respect to a nearby object within the virtual space. Such indicators may be useful in exploring outer space as well as landscapes and any other spaces.

摘要翻译： 指示器可操作以预览或显示虚拟空间内的视场的位置和相对缩放级别。 虚拟空间探索通常利用视野来限制用户对虚拟空间的视图并放大虚拟空间的一部分。 提供球形指示器以示出虚拟空间内的视场的当前位置，并且提供变焦水平的指示。 还提供了局部视野指示以显示视野的当前位置，以及相对于虚拟空间内的附近物体提供变焦水平的指示。 这些指标可能有助于探索外层空间以及景观和任何其他空间。

摘要： Improved conversation grouping methods and systems are provided for electronic mail records. Electronic mail messages that are unread or flagged for follow-up are automatically displayed under an associated conversation grouping heading. If a conversation grouping contains only a single unread or flagged electronic mail message, the single electronic mail message is automatically displayed under the conversation grouping heading for review by a user. For a conversation grouping having no unread or flagged electronic mail messages, the latest electronic mail message in the grouping is automatically displayed under the conversation grouping heading.

摘要： Groups of photo thumbnails are presented to the user, and where a user selects one of the thumbnails, a transition is provided replacing the group of thumbnails with the photo represented by the selected thumbnail. The photo may be displayed without cropping or stretching. In addition, a zoom/enlargement animation of the selected thumbnail is provided, and also possibly of the remaining thumbnails in the group, which then transitions into the represented photo. In addition, after or during the zooming animation, a cross-fading may occur such that the thumbnails fade out and the represented photo fades in. These types of transitions and user inputs both while the user is manually browsing thumbnails and when the user is viewing an automated slideshow of the thumbnails.

摘要： Automatic sorting and grouping of electronic mail items in an electronic mail system is provided. An automatic mail grouping property may be selected for electronic mail received, sent or stored in a variety of storage folders. For a given mail location (e.g., received mail, sent mail, or a given mail storage folder), a selected automatic grouping property causes mail to be displayed to a user in one or more categories that make location of specific mail items easier and more efficient. Visible dividers with optional headings may be provided between mail categories to quickly draw a user's attention to a given mail category and to separate large numbers of mail into logical groupings that make location of specific mail items more manageable.
