Abstract: An electronic device, in response to detecting an input that includes a combination of eye movement and finger movement: processes the input with a first gesture recognizer for an operating system application; and processes the input with a second gesture recognizer for a first software application, distinct from the operating system application. If the first gesture recognizer recognizes the input, based on the combination of eye movement and finger movement, the electronic device performs an operation defined by the operating system application and transitions the second gesture recognizer into an event impossible state. If the second gesture recognizer recognizes the input, the electronic device delays performance of an operation defined by the first software application for the input until the first gesture recognizer indicates that the input does not match the gesture definition of the first gesture recognizer.

Abstract: An electronic device displays one or more views of a software application with a plurality of gesture recognizers including at least one discrete gesture recognizer, configured to send a single action message in response to a respective gesture; and at least one continuous gesture recognizer, configured to send action messages at successive recognized sub-events of a respective recognized gesture. The device detects one or more events and processes each event using one or more of the gesture recognizers, including: processing the respective event at a respective gesture recognizer in accordance with a respective gesture definition corresponding to the respective gesture recognizer, and conditionally sending one or more respective action messages to the software application in accordance with an outcome of the processing of the respective event. The device executes the software application in accordance with one or more action messages received from one or more of the gesture recognizers.

Abstract: Embodiments provide methods and systems for updating application data in snapshots of applications for previewing. Some embodiments update application data by determining when current application data may expire and retrieving updated application data. The application data for various applications in a preview mode may be updated based on an allotted budget. Permission can be selectively granted to applications to obtain updated data so as to control the budget. Application data in the snapshots may appear updated to a user as the user browses the dock without requiring the applications to request updated application data when the user enters the dock, regardless of whether each application is active. Further, some embodiments may generate a snapshot using a layer hierarchy and image layer data generated while the application was last running if the time associated with when the application was last active is later than the time associated with an existing snapshot.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a technique for implementing a secure lock screen on a computing device. The secure lock screen is configured to permit particular applications to display their content—such as main user interfaces (UIs)—while maintaining a desired overall level of security on the computing device. Graphics contexts, which represent drawing destinations associated with the applications, are tagged with entitlement information that indicates whether or not each graphics context should be displayed on the computing device when the computing device is in a locked-mode. Specifically, an application manager tags each application that is initialized, where the tagging is based on a level of entitlement possessed by the application. In turn, a rendering server that manages the graphics contexts can identify the tagged entitlement information and display or suppress the content of the applications in accordance with their entitlements.

Abstract: An electronic device displays one or more views. A first view includes a plurality of gesture recognizers. The plurality of gesture recognizers in the first view includes one or more proxy gesture recognizers and one or more non-proxy gesture recognizers. Each gesture recognizer indicates one of a plurality of predefined states. A first proxy gesture recognizer in the first view indicates a state that corresponds to a state of a respective non-proxy gesture recognizer that is not in the first view. The device delivers a respective sub-event to the respective non-proxy gesture recognizer that is not in the first view and at least a subset of the one or more non-proxy gesture recognizers in the first view. The device processes the respective sub-event in accordance with states of the first proxy gesture recognizer and at least the subset of the one or more non-proxy gesture recognizers in the first view.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method that displays a document that includes several glyphs on a touch screen display. The method receives a touch input on the touch screen display to activate a zoom tool enabling location of a position indicator within a set of associated glyphs. The method automatically divides a touch screen region for the set of associated glyphs into sub-regions. Each sub-region is associated with a position indicator location between two subsequent glyphs. A first sub-region associated with a location between first and second glyphs has a same width as a second sub-region associated with a location between the second glyph and a third glyph. The first and third glyphs do not have an equal width. The method correlates movement of the touch input across the touch screen display with the equally-spaced sub-regions in order to move the position indicator between the glyphs in the associated set.

Abstract: A method executes software including a view hierarchy with a plurality of views which displays one or more views of the view hierarchy. The method executes software elements associated with a particular view, wherein each particular view includes event recognizers. Each event recognizer has an event definition based on sub-events, and an event handler that specifies an action for a target, and is configured to send the action to the target in response to an event recognition. The method detects a sequence of sub-events, and identifies one of the views of the view hierarchy as a hit view that establishes which views in the hierarchy are actively involved views. The method delivers a respective sub-event to event recognizers for each actively involved view, wherein each event recognizer for actively involved views in the view hierarchy processes the respective sub-event prior to processing a next sub-event in the sequence of sub-events.

Abstract: A display driving architecture that can include two graphics pipelines with an optional connection between them to provide a mirrored mode. In one embodiment, one of the two pipelines can be automatically configured (e.g. routed in one of a plurality of ways, such as routing to do color conversion) based upon the type of cable that is coupled to a connector of the one pipeline. In another embodiment, a connection of a cable can cause display information (e.g. resolutions of an external display) to be provided to an application which can select a display mode while one of the graphics pipelines is kept in a low power state.

Abstract: An electronic device comprising one or more touches on a region of the touchscreen display that includes the application content of the first application. In response to detecting the input comprising the one or more touches, the electronic device, in accordance with a determination that the one or more touches correspond to a system gesture for switching applications, replaces display of the first application with a second application without delivering information corresponding to the one or more touches to the first application; and in accordance with a determination that the touches do not correspond to a system gesture, delivers the information corresponding to the one or more touches to the first application.
