Object oriented computer system.

摘要

An object-based computer system has a graphical user interface. A palette view is provided onto an object within the system that depicts all the subobjects that potentially form parts of that object. By manipulating the objects in this view, for example by dragging and dropping them onto another view of the object, the user can select them for inclusion in the object. Also provided is a parts view, which depicts the list of parts that have actually been included within the object. <IMAGE>
