CONTEXT MENU UTILIZING A CONTEXT INDICATOR AND FLOATING MENU BAR

摘要

A context menu in an application user interface displays a context indicator in response to user interaction that places an insertion pointer or selects content in the application user interface. The context indicator is configured to invoke a floating menu having a set of contextual commands. The contextual commands of the floating menu include a parent command that is configured to open a submenu. The submenu includes a plurality of submenu commands associated with the parent command. The context menu displays a selectable button appended to the context indicator without presenting the underlying floating menu and submenu. The selectable button is configured to execute a predicted command that corresponds to one of a contextual command of the floating menu or a submenu command of the submenu.
