Abstract
A system, device, and method for creating widgets presentable in an image are disclosed. The widget creating system may include a system configuration file, one or more definition files, and a windows generator (WG). The WG may be configured to perform definition and run-time operations. The definition operation may include loading the system configuration file; loading first definition file(s) owned by a first user application and include at least one first-layer widget defined by a set of widget parameters, where each set may include contents corresponding to a second definition file of a second layer; and creating one or more first-layer widgets. The run-time operation may include loading one or more first-layer widget data parameter sets, where the contents corresponding to the second definition file are loaded and at least one second-layer widget is created during run time.
