    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for generating a calendar view of a schedule that includes a time zone adjusted travel event and calendar items. When a user creates a travel event on a calendar, an adjusted duration for the travel event is computed, and the travel event is then scheduled according to the adjusted duration. The travel event takes place over a first time zone of a starting location that a user departs from at a departure time, and a second (different) time zone of an ending location that the user arrives at an arrival time. The adjusted duration for the travel event that is time-adjusted, based on time zones that the travel event takes place over, to account for any transitions between the time zones that occur during the travel event. Other calendar items that occur on the travel date and are to be displayed in a main user interface of a calendar application can also be detected. A single schedule is then displayed in the main user interface of the calendar application that includes the travel event and each of the other calendar items. The travel event is displayed within the single schedule such that the travel event is rendered to have the adjusted duration that is time-adjusted to account for any transitions between the time zones that occur during the travel event.

    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for displaying a context-sensitive overlay in conjunction with a calendar displayed by a calendar application. The calendar application can determine contextual information from the calendar that indicates context for the calendar. The contextual information comprises calendar data or third-party data linked to calendar items that are displayed in the calendar. The calendar application can automatically query a backend system to dynamically determine, based on the contextual information, at least one context-sensitive overlay that is pertinent to the calendar in view of the contextual information. The context-sensitive overlay provides supplemental information that is directly associated with the contextual information from the calendar. The context-sensitive overlay can be displayed in conjunction with the calendar so that it is superimposed on at least a portion of the calendar.

    Abstract: A system and related processing methodologies for managing text strings in a graphical user interface are disclosed here. The system is a computer-based system having a memory device and one or more processors configured to execute instructions stored on the memory device to perform a method that provides a user interface (UI) environment having a plurality of features, each of the plurality of features comprising at least one UI component. The method also creates associations between UI text strings, UI components, and features of the UI environment, generates different UI text string identifiers for each unique association of UI text string, UI component, and feature, and maintains, in the memory device, the created associations and the generated UI text string identifiers.
