发明名称 Dynamic property sheet system
摘要 Methods and apparatus for the concurrent display of two or more property pages of a Graphical User Interface (GUI) are disclosed. A user can select a property page displayed by a first property sheet system and create a second property sheet system that displays the selected property page at second, user selected display position. Alternatively, the user can place, or dock, the selected property page into an existing property sheet system for inclusion therein and display thereby. The first property sheet system displays, at a first display position, any of the property pages remaining therein. Typically, the selected property page is removed from the first property sheet system and the first property sheet system is destroyed if it contains no other property pages. The invention allows a user of a GUI to concurrently display and interact with multiple property pages of multiple property sheet systems for optimizing the exchange of information with the GUI. <IMAGE>
