摘要:
A wheeled device, and method of making thereof, that simulates the feel and performance of alpine skiing/snowboarding on dry land is provided. Features of embodiments include: (1) a deck having flex similar to that of a ski/snowboard; (2) placement of wheels in a geometry mimicking the side cut of a shaped alpine ski/snowboard, and that with feature (1), enables a user to turn the device in an arc; and (3) wheels constructed of materials of varied coefficients of friction, which enable a user to skid the device in a braking mechanism similar to that of an alpine ski/snowboard, with the placement and design of the wheels emulating the base edge bevel of a typical snow-ski/snowboard. In an embodiment, the device is affixed to a user's feet using a binding device similar to that used for alpine skiing/snowboarding, and the user primarily relies on gravity on an inclined plane for locomotion.

Provided is an oriented polymeric sheet comprising a photochromic-dichroic material, wherein the sheet exhibits dichroism in an activated state. Also provided is a multilayer composite comprising at least a support layer; and an oriented thermoplastic polymeric sheet having two opposing surfaces and comprising a photochromic-dichroic material. The sheet exhibits dichroism in an activated state. At least one surface of the sheet is connected to at least a portion of the support layer. The present invention also relates to an optical element comprising the multilayer composite. Related methods also are disclosed.

Source values are mapped to new user-defined categories. The new user-defined categories are stored in a new user-defined field. In an embodiment, a user-selection of an existing field is received. Based on a data type of the existing field, a specific mapping interface is displayed. The interface guides the user through specification of the new field and categories, and identification of the source values to map to the new categories.

摘要:
Various techniques and procedures related to filtering objects in a virtual application within a multi-tenant system are provided. One approach involves providing a first graphical user interface element enabling indication of a first filtering criterion and a second graphical user interface element enabling indication of a second filtering criterion within the virtual application being accessed over a network from a client device. After indication of the first filtering criterion and the second filtering criterion, a filtered set of objects is identified based on the first filtering criterion and the second filtering criterion. At least a portion of the filtered set of objects may then be presented within the virtual application on a client device.
