Graphical user interfaces for computer display devices include a page bar control element that allows a user to easily and quickly navigate among the pages of a multiple page electronic document and/or among the pages of a plurality of electronic documents. In some examples, the page bar control element displayed on the computer system provides a visual representation of a multiple pages of the document(s), wherein the visual representation includes several tabs or markers, each marker representing one or more pages of the document(s). In some examples, the markers are rendered in colors that enable quick identification of the current page and/or the page being viewed as well as pages viewed in a riffling action. The page bar control element also may include a visual 'flag' that helps users quickly locate text that they have previously flagged or that the system has automatically flagged for them.

A system and method for associating an ink title with a note is described. A user may hand write a title for a document or note and have the handwritten ink title be displayed when interacting with the system when, for example, viewing the contents of a directory, reviewing the results of a search, viewing a list of most recently used documents, viewing a history of which documents were used, and the like. The use of a handwritten ink title speeds a user's recall of the content of the note over textual titles.

Organization of handwritten notes using handwritten titles

Electronic note taking is enhanced by automatically modifying an electronic document corresponding to a user's meeting notes to include at least some data from an electronic calendar or scheduling system in which the user's meeting is scheduled. For example, when an electronic note is created for a specific meeting, information about the meeting from the user's electronic calendar or scheduling system can automatically be included in the new electronic note. This information may be provided in the note in a form that allows it to be electronically searched and shared with others.
