    Abstract: A computer-human interface provides a mechanism to manage the available space of a computer display (28) in a manner that facilitates navigation among multiple windows (42-50) that are overlaid upon one another. The interface includes a user-delectable mode (Figure 5) in which the windows are rearranged, and resized if necessary, so that all open windows can be simultaneously viewed within the area of the display, thereby enabling any one of the windows to be easily selected for access. In effect, the presentation of the windows is "flattened" so that all windows appear at the same virtual depth, rather than overlapping one another. With this approach, there is no need to minimize windows in order to access one that is overlaid by another, thereby enabling the user to keep the content of all windows visible and accessible. Subsets of windows can be repositioned in the same manner (Figure 23b), or all windows can be removed from the display area for access to desktop objects.

    Abstract: A method, comprising: at an electronic device with a display device: receiving a request to display a user interface for a live communication session between two or more participants; and in response to receiving the request to display the user interface for the live communication session between two or more participants, displaying, via the display device, a live communication user interface including concurrently displaying a plurality of representations of participants in the live communication session, wherein: in accordance with a determination that the number of participants in the live communication session includes more than a threshold number of participants, at least some of the plurality of representations of participants other than a user of the electronic device overlap each other; and in accordance with a determination that the number of participants in the live communication session includes less than or equal to the threshold number of participants, none of the plurality of representations of participants other than the user of the electronic device overlap each other.

    Abstract: User interfaces for multiple display regions are described. One embodiment provides an array of non-overlapping windows that are created from a set of overlapping windows, and a user can select one of the non-overlapping windows to obtain an enlarged view of that selected window while keeping the other windows in their non-overlapping state. In one embodiment, the array of non- overlapping windows can include minimized windows or windows in other virtual desktops (e.g. windows in other "Spaces") or both. In one embodiment, only windows of a selected application are shown in non-overlapping mode while opened windows of other applications are not shown.

    Abstract: A user-activatable dashboard (also referred to as a unified interest layer) contains any number of user interface elements, referred to herein as "widgets," for quick access by a user. In response to a command from a user, the dashboard is invoked and the 5 widgets are shown on the screen. The user can activate the dashboard at any time, causing the dashboard to temporarily replace the existing user interface display on the user's screen. Once the dashboard has been activated, the user can interact with any or all of the widgets, and can configure the dashboard by adding, deleting, moving, or configuring individual widgets as desired. When the user wishes to return to the normal 0 user interface he or she was working with, the user issues a command causing the dashboard to be dismissed. Once the dashboard has been dismissed, the previous user interface state is restored, allowing the user to resume normal interactions with the operating system.

    Abstract: A user-activatable dashboard (also referred to as a unified interest layer) contains any number of user interface elements, referred to herein as "widgets", for quick access by a user. In response to a command from a user, the dashboard is invoked and the widgets arc shown on the screen. The user can activate the dashboard at any time, causing the dashboard to temporarily replace the existing user interface display on the user's screen. Once the dashboard has been activated, the user can interact with any or all of the widgets, and can configure the dashboard by adding, deleting, moving, or configuring individual widgets as desired. When the user wishes to return to the normal user interface he or she was working with, the user issues a command causing the dashboard to be dismissed.; Once the dashboard has been dismissed, the previous user interface state is restored, allowing the user to resume normal interactions with the operating system.
