Abstract: A background thread can be used to process events, e.g., a touch, gesture, pinch, or swipe, that are received on a touch sensitive device, or events, e.g., mouse scroll wheel events that are received on a input device, e.g., a mouse. The background thread can be used to process events when a main thread assigned to the Graphical User Interface (GUI) is interrupted. In such situations, the background thread can continue processing events. In cases where the main thread is interrupted and the event is scroll input, the background thread can draw content on the GUI in response to the scroll, so that the response to the scroll input observed by the user is unaffected by the interrupted main thread. By processing events and drawing content using the background thread while the main thread is blocked, the GUI can be navigated without having the user experience a stall or stutter.

Abstract translation: 背景线程可用于处理在触敏设备上接收的事件（例如，触摸，手势，捏或滑动）或诸如在输入设备上接收的鼠标滚轮事件的事件，例如， 一个鼠标。 当分配给图形用户界面（GUI）的主线程中断时，后台线程可用于处理事件。 在这种情况下，后台线程可以继续处理事件。 在主线程中断并且事件是滚动输入的情况下，后台线程可以在GUI上绘制内容以响应滚动，使得由用户观察到的对滚动输入的响应不受中断的主线程的影响。 通过在主线程被阻塞时通过处理事件和使用后台线程绘制内容，可以导航GUI，而不会使用户体验到停顿或停顿。

Abstract: Exemplary methods, apparatuses, and systems receive a preferred language and a base file that includes localizable and non-localizable user interface objects, the text string associated with the localizable user interface objects, and the respective ID codes of the user interface objects. Substitute the text string of localizable user interface objects in the base file with the text string in a localization text file referenced by the ID code. Generate a user interface window with the user interface objects including the text from the localization text file.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide for a multi-process model to support compiling applications for multiple platforms. In one embodiment, applications designed for execution on a mobile platform can be ported to and/or compiled for execution on a desktop/laptop platform without requiring modification of the core program code of the mobile application. The mobile application is executed using a multi-process (e.g., two or more process) model in which the core mobile application program generates content that is displayed by a host process. The host process enables automatic translation of program calls to generate mobile user interface elements into program calls that generate user interface elements of the host platform. The translation can be performed using a multi-process (e.g., two or more process) model in which the core application program generates content that is displayed by a host process.

Abstract: A method and apparatus of a device that modifies an application sleep state of a running application is described. In an exemplary embodiment, the device detects an event associated with the running application. In addition, the device evaluates one or more run-time characteristics of the running application. The device further determines if the running application is a candidate to have the application sleep state of this running application modified based on the monitored one or more run-time characteristics of the running application and the detected event. If the running application is a candidate to have the application sleep state of this running application modified, the device sends a message to the operating system of the device indicating how the application sleep state of the running application is to be modified, where the device includes a virtual memory subsystem that pages data of the running application between volatile storage to non-volatile storage.

Abstract: An electronic device may have a main display and an ancillary display. The device may also have a backlit keyboard with glyphs. An ambient light sensor may measure ambient light levels. Control circuitry in the laptop computer may adjust the color cast of content on the ancillary display depending on whether the content contains glyphs or other input display content or whether the content contains images, color gradients, or other output display content. Input display content may be matched in color cast to the color cast of the glyphs, which may be determined based on backlight status and/or measured ambient light information. Output content may be color matched to the main display.

Abstract: Exemplary methods, apparatuses, and systems receive user input to move, resize, or add a first user interface object to a first location in a user interface window. The user interface window includes a second user interface object in a second location. In response to the user input, constraints are generated based upon the first location and the second location. The constraints define a size or a position of the first user interface object relative to the second user interface object. The first user interface object is displayed within the user interface according to the determined constraints.
