Abstract:

In a display component, a component application having an attribute is provided. The component application is configured to communicate with an external system. In one embodiment the component application receives a communication from the external system to modify the value of the attribute. A value of the attribute of the display component is modified to define a logical relationship between a plurality of presentation elements. The presentation elements are operated and displayed by the external system. A user input is received via a user interface of the component application. The logical relationship between the presentation elements is triggered in response to the user input. In one embodiment, triggering the logical relationship includes defining an alternate path through a presentation. In another embodiment, an edit mode user interface for modifying a value of an internal display component attribute is provided.

Abstract:

In a presentation system, a presentation program is provided to display a user interface having a presentation window. A library of presentation elements is provided. The library includes a title and a thumbnail for a presentation element. The presentation elements include templates and components. Each presentation element has an attribute that defines a logical relationship with another presentation element. From the library of presentation elements, a plurality of presentation elements is selected. The selected presentation elements are inserted into the presentation. The selected presentation elements are logically related to create the presentation by setting a value of the attribute of a selected presentation element. The logical relationships alter the output of the presentation, for example, by defining an alternate path through the presentation. Each presentation element includes a user interface for triggering the defined logical relationship.
