One or more user input fields can be disposed in the at least one secondary display region. Similarly, one or more selection controls can be disposed in the at least one secondary display region. In that regard, each one of the selection controls can correspond to one of the user input fields. Finally, at least one primary user input field can be disposed in the primary display region.

A method (and system) for editing rules contained in a first document, where the rules define a transformation of data on a second document and where the first document and second document have elements constructed in a tree structure having nodes, each rule having a template structure including at least one match condition, the match condition being an expression in the template that describes a subset of tree nodes, includes selecting at least one rule in the first document and checking a match condition of the user-selected rule with the tree nodes from the second document to determine which structures in the second document match the selected rule.

A method, apparatus, and computer instructions for indicating the current ancestor hierarchy in a graphical user interface while scrolling through a tree structure. A determination is made as to the current ancestor hierarchy of an item displayed in a designated section of the tree structure. The designated section of the tree structure may be the topmost, bottommost, or any other file or directory displayed in the pane. When user searches for files or folders by scrolling through data displayed in a tree structure, a new item may be displayed in the designated section of the tree structure. As a result, the ancestor hierarchy display is updated with the current ancestor hierarchy for the item in the designated section of the tree structure.

Showing ancestors in tree view while scrolling

Systems, methods, and computer program products for displaying user selectable attributes for a first item contained within a set of items are provided. Attributes previously configured for the first item are displayed in a user interface so as to indicate their status as previously configured for the first item. Attributes previously configured for other items contained within the set are displayed in the user interface so as to indicate their status as previously configured for the other items. Attributes not configured for any item contained within the set may be displayed in the user interface so as to indicate their status as not configured for any item within the set.
