Dynamically specifying a view

Abstract

Systems and methods to provide a UI includes providing a program with a dynamic content to specify a view; and rendering the view based on the dynamic content.

1 . A method of interacting with a user interface (UI), comprising:
 presenting a user with a review of a proposed treatment plan by using the UI, where the review includes a series of panes presenting different views associated with the proposed treatment plan;   for one or more of the series of panes, providing the user with at least one input field to receive a user input based on a dynamic content associated with a particular view presented for consideration by the user;   prompting the user to enter a comment in response to one or more of the received user inputs; and   providing a change request associated with the proposed treatment plan in response to at least one of:
 the one or more of the received user inputs; and 
 the comment entered in response to the one or more of the received user inputs. 
   
   
   
       2 . The method of  claim 1 , where the method includes providing the user with a review of a proposed orthodontic treatment plan. 
   
   
       3 . The method of  claim 1 , where the method includes preventing the user from continuing to a subsequent pane of the series of panes until the user enters the comment when prompted. 
   
   
       4 . The method of  claim 1 , where the method includes providing, via the UI, a number of questions to be answered as to the user's satisfaction with a number of aspects of the treatment plan. 
   
   
       5 . The method of  claim 4 , where the method includes entering text regarding one or more of a number of aspects when the user indicates dissatisfaction in response to one or more of the number of questions. 
   
   
       6 . The method of  claim 5 , where the method includes updating a number of case settings in a proposed treatment plan file in response to the user's answers to one or more of the number of questions. 
   
   
       7 . The method of  claim 1 , where the method includes embedding the dynamic content in a browser. 
   
   
       8 . A method for specifying a view, comprising:
 providing a program with a dynamic content to specify the view; and   rendering the view based on the dynamic content;   where the content relates to a treatment plan;   where the program includes an animation routine that provides a series of panes downloaded from a server;   where at least one of the panes has at least one tool to change the view and at least one of the panes provides a treatment plan review;   where the treatment plan review includes putting forth a number of items for consideration and comment by a user; and   where the user is prompted to enter a comment in response to one or more of the number of items for consideration.   
   
   
       9 . The method of  claim 8 , where the method includes allowing the user to cycle through the series of panes via a number of control buttons associated with the animation routine. 
   
   
       10 . The method of  claim 8 , where the method includes integrating the series of panes in a display area of the program. 
   
   
       11 . The method of  claim 8 , where the method includes checking whether the user wishes to modify one or more case settings associated with the treatment plan in response to the comment of the user. 
   
   
       12 . The method of  claim 8 , where the method includes providing a different view for each of the series of panes. 
   
   
       13 . The method of  claim 8 , where the method includes providing a program that includes dynamic content related to a proposed orthodontic treatment plan. 
   
   
       14 . The method of  claim 8 , where the method includes presenting a 3D model in each pane of the series of panes. 
   
   
       15 . The method of  claim 14 , where the method includes allowing the user to change the 3D model in the panes via the animation routine. 
   
   
       16 . A system to provide a UI, comprising:
 means for providing a program with a dynamic content to specify a view; and   means for rendering the view based on the dynamic content;   where the dynamic content relates to a treatment plan;   where the program serves to present a series of panes downloaded from a server;   where the treatment plan review includes a number of questions to be answered by a user as to the user's satisfaction with a number of aspects of the treatment plan; and   where the user is prompted to enter text regarding one or more of the number of aspects when the user indicates dissatisfaction in response to one or more of the number of questions.   
   
   
       17 . The system of  claim 16 , where the view and a number of case settings are updated in response to the user's answers to the number of questions. 
   
   
       18 . The system of  claim 16 , where the treatment plan is an orthodontic treatment plan. 
   
   
       19 . The system of  claim 16 , where the system includes means for embedding the dynamic content in a browser in the program. 
   
   
       20 . The system of  claim 16 , where the program will not continue unless all questions have a response.
