## Claims

### Claim 1

A method for associating non-narrative, invention-related data within a disclosure application comprising:
a. instantiating a disclosure application having one or more nested hierarchies of elements or steps;
b. entering non-narrative data into a presentation layer of the disclosure application; and,
c. producing visual output after processing of non-narrative data by said disclosure application

### Claim 2

A system for associating non-narrative invention-related data with a disclosure application comprising:
a. a computer with memory,
b. non-narrative data processing modules with said computer memory wherein non-narrative data is entered into a disclosure application via the CPU and outputs visual information unrelated to the narrative of a patent application.
