Abstract

The methods and devices enable displaying image portions generated on a first computing device on a second computing device. A master helper app on the first device receives user content selections and computes bounding boxes on each. The master helper app may expand the system frame buffer to hold the selected content and cause the windows manager to direct applications to draw contents into the expanded frame buffer. The master helper app may invoke a slave helper app on the second device to receive the frame buffer contents. The slave helper app stores the received display data in a frame buffer so the image is displayed. Resizing, blending and partitioning processing of display content can be accomplished on either the first or second devices or on a third proxy device. Keystrokes on the second device can be translated into commands executed on the first device.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to computer graphical user interfaces, and more particularly to methods and apparatus for providing application program interface portions on peripheral computer devices. Background technique [0002] Computing devices with graphical user interfaces, such as computer workstations and cellular telephones, provide applications with graphical interfaces to users. This graphical interface permits the display of images by applications and Internet web pages. However, current applications can only display images on a display coupled to the computer on which the application is running. Contents of the invention [0003] Various aspects provide a method for displaying, on a display of a second computing device implementing a slave assistant application, a selected portion of a display image produced on a first computing device implementing a master assistant application, comprising: recreating formatting a display im...
