ABSTRACT:
A dynamic buffer is used to display an object from a document. The cut object is visible to the user as the floating cursor is positioned to a desired insertion point. The cut object can be any combination of text, graphics or data. The display can move in conjunction with the floating cursor or be parked at a predetermined or user-selected position. The cut object can be abbreviated to fit the display, or the display can be sized or scrolled. Once an object has been cut and thus stored in the dynamic buffer, it can be edited, or pasted to a new location or merely deleted.
