A specification language allows a user to define platform-independent user interface panels without detailed knowledge of complex computer programming languages. The specification language is referred to herein as a Panel Definition Markup Language (PDML), which defines tags that are used in similar fashion to those defined in Hypertext Markup Language (HTML), that allow a user to specify the exact location of components displayed in the panel. A graphical editor allows the creation and modification of platform-independent user interface panels without programming directly in the specification language. A conversion tool may be used to convert platform-specific user interface panels to corresponding platform-independent user interface panels. A help generator tool also facilitates the generation of context-sensitive help for a user interface panel.

Data in a document are displayed according to a transformation stylesheet, and the transformation stylesheet is automatically updated in response to a document modification made using a graphical editor. Mapping between the transformation stylesheet and the document is automated, so that user modifications to the document or to the transformation stylesheet are automatically incorporated in both. The transformation stylesheet is automatically annotated to create the mapping, and the data are transformed according to the annotated transformation stylesheet. Annotations are carried over to the resulting document. The annotations map nodes within the document to corresponding nodes in the transformation stylesheet. Annotations affected by modifications to the document are translated and replace corresponding nodes in the transformation stylesheet. The updated transformation stylesheet is re-annotated and the data are again transformed. Differences between the updated document and the original document are merged into the original document to maintain user selection information.

In one embodiment a new method to address configuring a logical design and libraries of design elements with additional information is proposed that may be used to create a physical design from that logical design. Logical designs may be generic, while physical design libraries are normally targeted towards specific technology. Consequently, there can be a mapping from the cells in a logical library to cells which correspond to their implementation in a physical library. In one embodiment, annotations required to map from logical design to physical design may be stored in a separate design view. In one embodiment the user can modify the physical mapping attributes of cells, instances, and occurrences in the logical design and save the modifications back to the physical configuration view.

A modeling tool may be created directed from a drawing. A plurality of components and their relationships are deduced from the drawing and defined as a metamodel. One or more user operations performed while creating the drawing are also determined and used in building the metamodel. The metamodel may be used in a fixed mode to create a model with definition of the metamodel. The metamodel may be also used in a flexible mode to further redefine the metamodel or create a second metamodel.

A method, apparatus and computer-usable medium for improved management of object properties in an integrated development environment (IDE). A cursor mode allows the underlying properties of one or more predetermined objects in a graphical editor to be dynamically viewed and modified by a user. One or more object's properties are displayed in an object properties pop-up viewer/editor window adjacent to the cursor when a user “mouses-over” target objects in a graphical editor and are editable upon explicit user gesture. The properties pop-up viewer/editor window is implementable to move with the cursor, i.e., cursor-attached, and to remain open to dynamically display, without additional user gestures, the respective properties of each predetermined object a user mouses-over.

A graphical editor displays graphical representations of underlying data items in a distribution of information-bearing states across a bounded region of a display. One or more of the data items are selected as belonging to a context of a user task or operation. The information-bearing states are redistributed in the bounded region of the display so that an amount of information sufficient to the task is provided through the graphical representations of the data items in the context and any space in the bounded region of the display needed to display such information is acquired by a decrease in the amount of information provided by the data items outside the context.
