    Abstract: A method of, and system for, building a screen and retrieving related portions of the screen through single button depression. The order with which various portions are built in building a screen is used upon recall of the screen and selection of one portion for controlling selection of related portions. Consider a wheel which is built by building a hub, spokes, rim, and tire in order. Later recall of the wheel and aelection of the spokes will permit selection of either the hub or rim upon single button depression.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for remote control of electronic devices (10,14) includes one or more processing units (20), a memory system (20), one or more I/O controllers (20), controlling various input/output devices such as a keyboard (26), a mouse (28), a display device (22), communications adapters and the like, a bus (20) which connects the processing units, the memory system, and the I/O controllers, one or more transducers (202,204,212,214) adapted to convert electronic signals to wireless communications signals the processor units (20) being arranged to execute one or more application programs for controlling generation and transmission of wireless communications signals for remote control of one or more electronic devices (10,14). A typical application is the control of transmission of infrared signals to remotely control consumer electronics equipment (10,14).

    Abstract: In a data processor controlled display system having three-dimensional objects laid out in a three-dimensional virtual workspace, the objects have associated there with respective collision barriers which are stored with their corresponding objects. Then during navigation via changing the users viewpoint in to the workspace, when this changing viewpoint encounters any collision barrier which is offset from its object by a selected distance D, the viewpoint stops. This distance of the barrier from the object is selected so as to stop the viewpoint at a distance sufficiently removed from its particular object so as to leave the user or viewer with a view of the workscape of sufficient scope to permit the viewer to select a different navigation path or path branch. In accordance with a further aspect of the present invention, the viewpoint is optionally provided with a similar collision barrier.

    Abstract: An extended selection field for use in selecting one or more choices from a list on an information system display. The extended selection field exhibits the behavior and appearance of a standard single choice field, with the additional capability to switch into a multiple choice mode to override the single choice restriction. A single choice is selected using the standard technique of moving the selection bar to the desired choice and pressing the Enter key. However, the single choice restriction may be overridden by using the standard multiple choice selection technique of moving the selection bar to a first desired choice and pressing (instead of the Enter key) a choice selection key such as the space bar. The field then exhibits the behavior and appearance of a standard multiple choice field. The single choice selection bar immediately changes to a multiple choice indicator and the operator receives immediate visual feedback that the system is enabled to accept multiple choices. At the conclusion of the multiple choices, the Enter key is depressed to submit all of the selected choices for processing. The single choice mode can be reestablished by deselecting all of the selected choices.
