Patent ID: 10984188

Abstract:
Method, apparatus, and computer-readable media for converting static objects into dynamic intelligent object templates preferably provides structure and/or function whereby a first user displays a static object on a display. The user converts the static object into a dynamic template object having attributes of a group, the group including at least two of (i) notes, (ii) text boxes, (iii) images, (iv) sketches, (v) embedded links, (vi) inking objects, and (vii) sub-groups. Objects of the group inherit behaviors and attributes of the group including at least two of (i) color, (ii) naming convention, and (iii) positional attributes. The conversion occurs when the attributes and behaviors of the group are added to the static object, or when another underlying behavior is made available through interaction with the object. The dynamic template object is stored in a template library. Preferably, a second user can have the same conversion rights as the first user.
