In general, user interfaces for controlling a plurality of multimedia players in groups are disclosed. According to one aspect of the present invention, a user interface is provided to allow a user to group some of the players according to a theme or scene, where each of the players is located in a zone. When the scene is activated, the players in the scene react in a synchronized manner. For example, the players in the scene are all caused to play a multimedia source or music in a playlist, wherein the multimedia source may be located anywhere on a network. The user interface is further configured to illustrate graphically a size of a group, the larger the group appears relatively, the more plays there are in the group.

A method controls a list scroll bar, including displaying a partial area of a list having at least one first item, and a list scroll bar to scroll the list; expanding and displaying a first index area having at least one first index corresponding to the at least one first item in the list scroll bar; downscaling a second index area having at least one second index corresponding to at least one second item different from the at least one first item and displaying a representative second index representing the second index area in the list scroll bar; and upon detecting a gesture to select the representative second index, expanding and displaying the second index area in the list scroll bar while downscaling the first index area and displaying a representative first index representing the first index area in the list scroll bar.

A computer-implemented method includes receiving instructions to display contents containing multiple items, and calculating a number of pages in which the multiple items are divided. The method further includes creating several user interface elements, each user interface element assigned to a page. The method further includes determining a range information of each page, wherein the range information of the page indicates a start and end of a range of the items included on the page. The method further includes, for each of the user interface elements, adding the range information of the page assigned to the user interface element, and displaying the user interface elements with respective range information.

Embodiments herein describe a patient evaluation system that generates tags for a patient that, e.g., an evaluator can use to determine whether a particular healthcare facility can meet the needs of the patient. The patient evaluation system can scan a patient's medical records to identify keywords or phrases that can be used to generate tags. The patient evaluation system can then assign a visual indicator to the tags to represent the tags' relevance to a particular health care facility. For example, if a tag indicates the patient needs a complex medication which the facility does not have, this tag is assigned a visual indicator a low compatibility with the healthcare facility. These tags, along with their visual indicators, can then be displayed on a graphical user interface (GUI) for the evaluator to then make a recommendation whether to transfer the patient to the healthcare facility.

User interface techniques provide user vocalists with mechanisms for solo audiovisual capture and for seeding subsequent performances by other users (e.g., joiners). Audiovisual capture may be against a full-length work or seed spanning much or all of a pre-existing audio (or audiovisual) work and in some cases may mix, to seed further contributions of one or more joiners, a user's captured media content for at least some portions of the audio (or audiovisual) work. A short seed or short segment may span less than all (and in some cases, much less than all) of the audio (or audiovisual) work. For example, a verse, chorus, refrain, hook or other limited “chunk” of an audio (or audiovisual) work may constitute a short seed or short segment. Computational techniques are described that allow a system to automatically identify suitable short seeds or short segments. After audiovisual capture against the short seed or short segment, a resulting, solo or group, full-length or short-form performance may be posted, livestreamed, or otherwise disseminated in a social network.

Systems and methods are presented herein for generating at least one preview of a portion of a content item, wherein the at least one preview is selectable and, when selected, enables a user to change to a playback position of the at least one preview. An input corresponding to a request to generate at least one preview of a portion of a content item is received. At least two key events corresponding to the portion of the content item is identified. In response to identifying the at least two key events, at least one interactive thumbnail corresponding to the at least two key events is generated, wherein the icon corresponds to a preview of the portion of the content item.

The present disclosure relates to a method and an apparatus for displaying an object. The method includes displaying a navigation bar and a user interface of an application program, wherein the navigation bar is configured to display widgets of n virtual buttons provided by an operating system, where n is a positive integer; when a first object is displayed in the user interface, determining a second object corresponding to the first object, wherein the first object and the second object are a part of a superior-level object; displaying in the navigation bar a display widget corresponding to the second object; receiving a first signal that is generated based on a first specified operation that is triggered on the display widget; and switching a display of the first object in the user interface to a display of the second object.
