Abstract: A computer system and method for presenting windows in a dynamic menu are provided. The dynamic menu presents windows corresponding to an active application according to a first order, whereby windows are arranged based on recent interaction. The dynamic menu also presents windows corresponding to one or more inactive applications according to a second order, whereby windows are arranged based on relevance to a user of the computer system. The windows are presented in a first presentation state, and are expanded to a second presentation state or a third presentation state in response to user interaction. The third presentation state is reached via the second presentation state, thereby reducing latency and complexity of menu navigation.

Abstract: Techniques for better information sharing and control switching in a graphical user interface (GUI) are described. In an example, upon a user request, a menu is presented over content from a first application based on an execution of a menu application. The menu comprises a window presented in a first state that corresponds to a second application other than the first application. Upon a user selection of the window, the window is transitioned and presented in a second state. During the transition, an overlay window supported by an application module is presented that completely overlaps the window in the second state. While the window and the overlay window are in the second state, options to perform actions on the overlay window or content of the overlay window are presented.

Abstract: Techniques for better information sharing and control switching in a graphical user interface (GUI) are described. In an example, a computer system determines a user context indicating a likely user interest in applications. Upon a user request for a menu, windows are added to a dynamic area of the menu based on the user context and correspond to the applications. The menu is presented in the GUI and each window be shown in a glanced state to provide quick information about the corresponding application. When the user focus shifts to a window, that window is presented in a focused state to also provide a selectable action that can be performed. Upon a user selection of the window, the window is presented in a selected state to further provide additional performable actions. The window can be pinned to the GUI and user control can automatically switch to another application.

Abstract: A computer system including a content monitoring service of a menu application is provided. The content monitoring service pre-fetches data for a target application based on a data template defined for the target application, and stores the pre-fetched data in a cache of the menu application. The menu application presents a window in a first presentation state, where the window corresponds to the target application and includes content based on the pre-fetched data in the cache. The computer system further includes a window application that, upon a user selection of the window, receives a copy of the pre-fetched data from the cache and presents the window in a second state based on the data template.

Abstract: Techniques for better information sharing and control switching in a graphical user interface (GUI) are described. In an example, application windows are added to a dynamic area of a menu based on an execution of a menu application. The menu is presented in the GUI and each window is shown in a glanced state to provide quick information about the corresponding application. When the user focus shifts to a window, that window is presented in a focused state. Upon a user selection of the window, the window is presented in a selected state and includes one or more selectable controls. Based on the window in the selected state, an application module is updated to present an overlay window reproducing the window in the selected state. The overlay window is presented coextensive with and over the window in the selected state.
