COMBINING INTERFACES OF SHELL APPLICATIONS AND SUB-APPLICATIONS

摘要

A system comprises storage that includes a shell application and a sub-application that is adapted to provide a functionality to the shell application. The system also comprises processing logic coupled to the storage and adapted to execute the shell application and the sub-application. The processing logic generates a first graphical user interface (GUI) using the sub-application and generates a second GUI using the shell application. The processing logic displays on a display the first GUI superimposed onto the second GUI. The processing logic captures input provided using the first GUI and provides the input to the sub-application.
