Abstract:
1. A computer-implementable method comprising: displaying an active context of a software program on a User Interface (UI); receiving a copy command for a copied element from the active context; in response to a control signal, displaying an access view of one or more secondary contexts of the software program, wherein said one or more secondary contexts are initially inactive, wherein the access view comprises miniature views of the one or more secondary contexts of the software program, wherein each of the miniature views presents a miniature depiction of an entire document page, wherein the miniature views do not allow adequate image resolution for a user to paste the copied element, and wherein each of the miniature views are expandable to allow higher resolution for positioning of the copied element for pasting into a selected secondary context when activated; temporarily activating a selected context from said one or more secondary contexts shown in the access view, wherein activating the selected context further causes one of the miniature views to be expanded into an expanded view of the entire document page; and pasting the copied element into the expanded view of the entire document page.
