Abstract
Device simulators and methods for using the same are disclosed. In some embodiments, the device simulators are capable of permitting accurate pixel to pixel and inch to inch mapping between a simulated display and a display of a target device. Web application development tools utilizing such simulators are also disclosed. In some embodiment, such web application development tools provide a convenient method to convert electronic document source files to interactive document web applications for multiple operating systems and form factors.
Claims20
A system, comprising:
- a processor;
- a memory having device simulator instructions stored thereon, wherein when executed said device simulator instructions cause said processor to:
- generate a user interface within a web browser, said user interface comprising at least one host frame and at least one scalar, said at least one host frame containing a simulation of a target device running therein, the target device comprising at least one display;
- convert a position of said scalar into a zoom ratio;
- and
- apply said zoom ratio to said at least one host frame;
- wherein at least one first position of said scalar correlates to a zoom ratio that enables inch to inch mapping between said at least one host frame and said at least one display of said target device.
4 more elements
A method, comprising:
- generating a simulation of a target device in a web browser executed by a processor, said target device comprising at least one display;
- and
- altering the zoom of the simulation based on a zoom ratio determined from a position of a scalar;
- wherein at least one first position of said scalar correlates to a zoom ratio that enables inch to inch mapping between said simulation and said at least one display of said target device.
1 more element
A method, comprising:
- displaying a user interface within a web browser executed by a processor, the user interface comprising a presentation layer and a rendering layer, the presentation layer comprising hyper text markup language code, the rendering layer comprising JavaScript code;
- executing a simulation of a target device within said presentation layer, said target device comprising at least one display;
- detecting a position of a scalar with said rendering layer;
- converting said position of said scalar to a zoom ratio with said rendering layer;
- and
- applying said zoom ratio to said simulation;
- wherein at least one first position of said scalar correlates to a zoom ratio that enables inch to inch mapping between said simulation and said at least one display of said target device.
