A framework for individually controlling the layout of display elements provides management of the layout automatically via pluggable policies. Control modules are dedicated to controlling the format of respective display elements. The control modules are organized into an ancestral hierarchy tree structure. Each parent control module specifies a policy object that manages the layout of its children, and provides measurement information to ancestor control modules. When an aspect of a control module changes that will affect its layout, it makes a single call which causes the framework to utilize the relevant layout managers to layout any affected control modules.

A computer-implemented system for creating or managing layouts, comprising a browser application and one or more display clients for rendering data-oriented views. The browser application is user-operable to select or locate data sources and to select data-oriented views and thereby to control the browser application to control the display clients to render the selected data-oriented views based on the selected data sources. The browser application may include an icon module for generating increment icons, the increment icons being user-operable to select the data sources and the data-oriented views.

The invention relates to a browser-based system and a method for content edition and issue, and belongs to the field of typesetting. The system comprises a data manager, a page manager, a layout manager, a template manager, a style manager and a rule manager; HTML codes are encircled on a layout template in a div label; extended attribute information is attached to an HTML label in a mode of an extended name space; and a web page is directly established and edited on a Web browser in a WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) mode. By adopting the system and the method, the browser-based content edition and web page information publish are realized.

An electronic layout manager system for displaying a plurality of visual elements in different sections of a screen of an electronic device or of a screen image projected by an electronic device, said sections being in the form of assembled square or rectangular tiles of various sizes that in combination fill a square or rectangular screen surface area, the system comprising a layout manager program module configured to define the size and position of each of the tiles as a function of constraints stored in a memory of the system or calculated by an algorithm of the program module, the program module configured to recursively subdivide said screen surface area by horizontal and vertical partitions (H, V) to create a binary space partitioning (BSP) layout containing horizontal and vertical partitions representable by a logical binary tree where each node of the tree represents a partition and each leaf of the tree represents a tile, whereby each addition of a tile comprises either adding a vertical partition (V) or alternatively adding a horizontal partition (H) and each subtraction of a tile comprises either subtracting a vertical partition (V) or alternatively subtracting a horizontal partition (H), the program module configured to automatically resize, as a function of one or more of said constraints, at least one or more tiles aligned with the added or removed tile to fill the space that was occupied by said one or more resized tiles before said addition or subtraction, said aligned tiles sharing a common partition orthogonal to the added or subtracted partition, said automatic resizing occurring in a direction orthogonal to the added or subtracted partition whereby when a vertical partition is added or subtracted said automatically resized tiles are resized in width and when a horizontal partition is added or subtracted said automatically resized tiles are resized in height.

Image control involves receiving source images defined with respect to respective source coordinate systems from source image generators also respectively associated with source IDs. The source images are composed to generate a composite image defined with respect to a composed coordinate system, and the composed image is sent to a viewer which displays the composed image and outputs an HID signal which indicates information defined with respect to the composed coordinate system. A layout manager stores source IDs respectively associated with layout information including position and size of at least one of the source images. An image composer composes the source images according to the layout information. An analyzer analyzes the HID signal for editing layout information stored in the layout manager, and determines a source ID a source image according to the layout information. The HID signal defined with respect to the composed coordinate system is converted to an HID signal defined with respect to the source coordinate system corresponding to the determined source image. An operator then sends the converted HID signal to the source image generator associated with the determined source ID.

The invention provides a trotting horse lamp effect achieving device and method based on an Android platform. The device includes a data collection module (11), an adapter (13), a data processing module (24a), a smooth rolling module (24b) and a Recycler View control (15), wherein the Recycler View control (15) is provided with a layout manager (151). The data processing module (24a) is used for finding subviews in cycle and drawing the found subviews in a memory block in sequence; the smooth rolling module (24b) is used for calculating the speed of the subviews moving based on pixel points and the displacement in preset time duration when the found subviews are drew so as to control the image frame drawing speed in the found subview drawing process; the layout manager (151) is used for setting the rolling direction of the subviews. By the arrangement of the data processing module and the smooth rolling module, the Recycler View control is adopted on the Android platform to achieve a trotting horse lamp effect and allows trotting horse lamps to jitter, and the lagging effect is improved; in addition, the multi-directional trotting horse lamp effect can be achieved through the configuration of the layout manager.

A computer-implemented system for creating or managing layouts, comprising a browser application and one or more display clients for rendering data-oriented views. The browser application is user-operable to select or locate data sources and to select data-oriented views and thereby to control the browser application to control the display clients to render the selected data-oriented views based on the selected data sources. The browser application may include an icon module for generating increment icons, the increment icons being user-operable to select the data sources and the data-oriented views.

The invention relates to a method for controlling the disposition of graphical elements, whose positioning is effected by a layout manager component, according to which the elements are listed in tuples according to a predetermined method. A Boolean condition is evaluated for every tuple and if said Boolean condition is met an associated command is carried out that comprises the control command for the layout manager component. The inventive method is preferably used in generator systems for generating applications that extract data bases, whereby for every line of the result table graphical objects are generated and said objects are disposed on the graphical surface by way of the indicated method.

A computer-implemented method and computer-readable medium are provided for providing page and table layout services. According to the method, a layout manager program provides layout services to client application programs. The layout manager receives requests from client application programs to format document content. In response to such requests, the layout manager performs one or more callback operations to the client application to retrieve portions of the document to be laid out. Once the portions of the page to be laid out have been retrieved through the callback operations, the layout manager lays out the portions of the document and notifies the client application that the layout is completed. The client application can then query the layout manager for the formatting result.
