    摘要: A method and apparatus for coupling a user-created window, or object, to menu functions of another application is accomplished once functions of another program have been selected and an attachment menu bar is created. The attachment menu bar is then graphically attached to the user-created object. When one of the selected menu functions is invoked, the system performs the function indicated by the selected function on an object within the user-created object or on the user-created object.

    摘要: A computer-implemented method, apparatus, memory embodying computer-readable code for installing software stored on a second machine to a first machine in a distributed computing network is provided. The first machine includes at least a display, processor, and user controls. The method includes the steps of displaying available, installable source objects of a second machine embodying software that is installable on a first machine, displaying software bundle objects having software items, wherein at least one software item is in common with one of the software items in the selected source object in response to a selection by user controls of at least one source object, and installing on the first machine an intersection of the first software items and the second software items.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for editing the custom colors from a Quick Color Selector on a personal computer desktop. An Edit Custom Colors button is provided on the Quick Color Selector. Activating this button causes a Color Editor to appear, either as a separate window or as an expansion of the Quick Color Selector. This invention also provides for a user to specify which custom color chip is to be edited (the target chip). In particular, navigation controls are provided that enable the user to move an identifying cursor across an array of custom color chips. The navigation controls may appear in the Quick Color Selector or in a Color Editor. The Quick Color Selector still exhibits its expected transient behavior in that it, together with any separate Color Editor window, disappears immediately after the user selects a color chip.
