摘要:
A system is described for displaying images of a virtual three-dimensional book having one or more virtual pages. The system comprises a display system capable of executing a display program wherein images of the virtual three-dimensional book are produced on the display system. The display system may include a folding function, whereby a segment of a virtual page is displayed as at least partially folding backward form a surface of the display system. Additionally, based on one or more search terms, the display system may include an indexing function for creating a customized index and/or a table of contents function for creating a customized table of contents. Moreover, a dynamic bookmark function may be provided for displaying one or more dynamic bookmarks to a virtual three-dimensional book. Also disclosed is a computer program product comprising a computer usable medium having computer readable code embodied therein for producing images of a virtual three-dimensional book.

A system is described for displaying images of a virtual three-dimensional book having a plurality of virtual pages. The system comprises a display system capable of executing a display program wherein images of the virtual three-dimensional book are produced on the display system. Information relating to the virtual three-dimensional book may be displayed on an edge of the virtual three-dimensional book. This information may comprise a table image, meta-data about references in the book, information about the organizational structure of the book, or graphical data. Additionally, several columns or rows of information may be displayed on the virtual book edge, each column or row being selectively expandable and contractible. Moreover, a virtual three-dimensional book may be displayed in a way that bears a metaphorical relationship to the contents of the virtual three-dimensional book. Also disclosed is a computer program product comprising a computer usable medium having computer readable code embodied therein for producing images of a virtual three-dimensional book.

A system is described for displaying images of a virtual three-dimensional book having one or more virtual pages. The system comprises a display system capable of executing a display program wherein images of the virtual three-dimensional book are produced on the display system. The display system may include a magnification function producing a virtual magnifier moveable over the virtual pages. The display system may also include a the “stretchy page” display method wherein one section of the page is directly magnified, while other adjacent sections may be directly magnified in a horizontal or vertical direction, but not both directions. Moreover, a virtual page may also be tilted about a central axis of the virtual page to accommodate viewing of a desired section on the display system. Finally, a computer program product comprising a computer usable medium having computer readable code embodied therein for producing images of a virtual three-dimensional book is also disclosed.

A system is described for displaying images of a virtual three-dimensional book having one or more virtual pages. The system comprises a display system capable of executing a display program wherein images of the virtual three-dimensional book are produced on the display system. A degree of interest (DOI) function is provided for allocating available space on the display system. A page selection function may provide a user-selectable scale along a long axis of the virtual book for selecting virtual pages. Virtual chapter tabs may also be provided for navigating within the virtual book. The display system may also include a page flipping function with several different page flipping speeds and several different page flipping animations for moving between virtual pages in the virtual book. Moreover, a scroll bar function provided to facilitate page navigation wherein space on the scroll bar is allocated using a DOI function. Finally, a computer program product comprising a computer usable medium having computer readable code embodied therein for producing images of a virtual three-dimensional book is also disclosed.
摘要:
A computer-implemented method of generating marks in a graphical view includes receiving a first user request to associate a first set of data samples with a first visual mark property. In response to the first user request, area marks are displayed in a graphical view. Respective area marks correspond to respective data samples in the first set. A second user request is received to associate the first set of data samples with a second visual mark property. In response to the second user request, point marks are displayed in the graphical view. Respective point marks correspond to respective data samples in the first set.

A method for visualizing data is disclosed. The method is performed on a client system. The client system displays a visual representation of a set of data having a plurality of fields; wherein the visual representation is an area-based visual representation. The client system displays the plurality of fields associated with the set of data. The client system then receives an indication from a user associating a first field in the plurality of fields with a column or row attribute of the visual representation and in response to receiving the indication associating a first field in the plurality of fields with a column or row attribute of the visual representation alters the displayed representation to display the set of data as a plurality of smaller area-based visual representations which are sorted in columns or rows according to the values of the selected first field.
