A web application dialog user interface is provided for presenting users with controls for viewing, editing, and otherwise managing content through the web application. Consistency in style and order of control elements in the user interface with control elements of a standard application user interface, launching of the dialog without a page refresh, and maintenance of task continuity provide users a seamless experience in managing their documents through the web application without loss of context.

A drawing assistance system enhances a sketch drawn by a user in an electrical document on a computer system by collecting stroke data from one or more strokes of a sketch as a user draws the sketch. The stroke data includes time-based information and features of each stroke. The strokes are handled based on the time-based information, and analysed based on the strokes handled based on the time-based information. The sketch is enhanced based on results of the analysis.

A mark-making tool creator creates mark-making tool definitions for a graphic computer software application having a mark-making tool handler for handling mark-making tools based on mark-making tool definitions. The mark-making tool creator comprises a donor handler for receiving definitions of selected donor mark-making tools and a control value synthesizer. Each definition has a set of donor control values defining the respective donor mark-making tool. The control value synthesizer interpolates the sets of donor control values of the selected donor mark-making tools to generate one or more new sets of control values, and provides the new sets of control values to the mark-making tool handler as new definitions to create and display new mark-making tools for user's preview.
