AUTOMATIC COLUMN RESIZING
First Claim
1. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing code that when executed by one or more processors associated with one or more computer systems configures the one or more processors for creating documents of desktop applications that act as user interfaces for web-based applications, the non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising:
- code for creating contents of a document in a native application format associated with a first application;
code for associating a user interface element with a portion of the contents of the document, the user interface element being a component of a second application and providing a link between the portion of the contents of the document and data associated with data models provided by web-based applications in communication with the second application;
code for mapping the user interface element to one or more data models provided by a web-based application wherein the user interface element contributes at least a portion of data associated with the one or more data models provided by the web-based application to a user interface within the first application based on dimension information determined at runtime that instructs the first application on how to resize the data; and
code for generating metadata associated with the document based on the associating of the user interface element with the portion of the contents of the document and the mapping of the user interface element to the one or more data models provided by the web-based application.

Abstract
In various embodiments, methods, systems, and non-transitory computer-readable media are disclosed that allow developers to provide automatic column resizing in spreadsheet software using a desktop integration framework. The width of a column usually can only be set at or to hard-wired widths or manually adjusted to fit (even with a manually triggered auto adjustment function). This feature adds the ability to control column widths in tables at run time.

13. A method comprising:
-
creating, by a computer system, contents of a document in a native application format associated with a first application; associating, by a computer system, a user interface element with a portion of the contents of the document, the user interface element being a component of a second application and providing a link between the portion of the contents of the document and data associated with data models provided by web-based applications in communication with the second application; mapping, by a computer system, the user interface element to one or more data models provided by a web-based application wherein the user interface element contributes at least a portion of data associated with the one or more data models provided by the web-based application to a user interface within the first application based on dimension information determined at runtime that instructs the first application on how to resize the data; and generating, by a computer system, metadata associated with the document based on the associating of the user interface element with the portion of the contents of the document and the mapping of the user interface element to the one or more data models provided by the web-based application.

14. A system comprising:
-
a processor; and a memory storing a set of instructions which when execute by the processor configure the processor to; create contents of a document in a native application format associated with a first application; associate a user interface element with a portion of the contents of the document, the user interface element being a component of a second application and providing a link between the portion of the contents of the document and data associated with data models provided by web-based applications in communication with the second application; map the user interface element to one or more data models provided by a web-based application wherein the user interface element contributes at least a portion of data associated with the one or more data models provided by the web-based application to a user interface within the first application based on dimension information determined at runtime that instructs the first application on how to resize the data; and generate metadata associated with the document based on the associating of the user interface element with the portion of the contents of the document and the mapping of the user interface element to the one or more data models provided by the web-based application.
