Methods and systems involving object attribute recognition

Abstract

A method for displaying formatting of objects, the method comprising, receiving an input, wherein the input is a selected range of objects, determining formatting attributes of the selected range of objects, determining an amount of objects having each of the formatting attributes in the selected range of objects, displaying each of the determined formatting attributes, designating each of the determined formatting attributes displayed with a unique non-textual indicator, marking the objects in the selected range of objects with the unique non-textual indicator corresponding to the determined formatting attributes of the objects in the selected range of objects, and marking the objects in the selected range of objects with a second type of indicator to indicate the determined amount of objects having each of the formatting attributes in the selected range of objects relative to a total amount of objects in the selected range of objects.

1 . A system for displaying formatting of objects comprising:
 a processor operative to:   receive an input, wherein the input is a selected range of objects;   determine formatting attributes of the selected range of objects;   determine an amount of objects having each of the formatting attributes in the selected range of objects; and   a display operative to:   display each of the determined formatting attributes;   designate each of the determined formatting attributes displayed with a unique non-textual indicator; and   mark the objects in the selected range of objects with the unique non-textual indicator corresponding to the determined formatting attributes of the objects in the selected range of objects; and   mark the objects in the selected range of objects with a second type of indicator to indicate the determined amount of objects having each of the formatting attributes in the selected range of objects relative to a total amount of objects in the selected range of objects.
