SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DISPLAYING ANDROID APPLICATIONS LAUNCHERS IN WEBTOP APPLICATION TRAY
First Claim
1. A method for displaying an application tray on a device, the method comprising:
- displaying, in a first portion of the application tray on a display of the device, a first icon corresponding to a first application running in a first environment operating on the device;
displaying, in a second portion of the application tray on the display of the device, a second icon corresponding to a second application running in a second environment operating on the device;
detecting a selection on one of the displayed first and second icons,launching the first application in a window when the first icon is selected; and
displaying the window on top of other open windows on the display,wherein the first environment and the second environment interact with a kernel operating on the device, andwherein the second environment is a primary environment operating on the device.

Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed to display an application tray having a first and second application launchers from two completely native environments operating on a device. First, in a first portion of the application tray, the device displays a first icon corresponding to a first application running in a first environment. Second, in a second portion of the application tray, the device displays a second icon corresponding to a second application running in a second environment. Third, the device detects a selection on one of the displayed first and second icons. In the fourth step, the device launches the first application in a window when the first icon is selected. Finally, the device displays the window on top of other open windows on the display. The first environment and the second environment interact with a kernel. The second environment is a primary environment operating on the device.
