Abstract: Facilitating collaboration in a multiuser communication session includes detecting initiation of an interaction between a user of a first device and a virtual object in a multiuser communication session, where the first device and a second device are active in the multiuser communication session, and where state information is synchronized among the first device and second device in the multiuser communication session. In accordance with detecting the initiation of an interaction between the user and the virtual object, synchronization of state information is suspended by the first device, where the state information is related to the interaction between the user and the virtual object. A representation of the multiuser communication session at the first device and a representation of the multiuser communication session at the second device are inconsistent in accordance with the suspended synchronization of the state information.

Abstract: Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that enable improved display of virtual content in computer generated reality (CGR) environments. In some implementations, the CGR environment is provided at an electronic device based on a field of view (FOV) of the device and a position of virtual content within the FOV. A display characteristic of the virtual object is adjusted to minimize or negate any adverse effects of the virtual object or a portion of the virtual object falling outside of the FOV of the electronic device.

Abstract: In an exemplary process for interacting with user interface objects using an eye gaze, a placement point for a selected object is designated at a first position based on a gaze position. In response to a user input, the placement point is moved to a second position that is not based on the gaze position, and the object is placed at the second position.

Abstract: In an exemplary process, a virtual object is displayed in an enhanced reality setting. A request to transfer the virtual object is received, wherein a determination is made whether a set of one or more virtual object transfer criteria is satisfied. Movement of the virtual object away from an avatar is displayed in accordance with a determination that the set of one or more virtual object transfer criteria is satisfied. Displaying movement includes determining whether a size of the virtual object satisfies a set of one or more size criteria. In accordance with a determination that the size of the virtual object satisfies the set of one or more size criteria, a reduction in the size of the virtual object is displayed. In accordance with a determination that the size of the virtual object does not satisfy the set of one or more size criteria, displaying of a reduction in the size of the virtual object is foregone.

Abstract: The disclosure pertains to techniques for collaborating in a multi-user communications environment. One such technique includes receiving, at a first communication device, data associated with a multi-user communication session between a first user of the first communication device and a second user of a second communication device, presenting, at the first communication device, a non-extended reality graphical user interface (GUI), the non-extended reality GUI including a non-extended reality representation of a virtual object included in the multi-user communication session and a representation of the second user based on the data associated with the multi-user communication session, and updating, at the first communication device, the non-extended reality GUI to illustrate an interaction between the representation of the second user and the virtual object in response to the data indicating the interaction.

Abstract: Presentation of objects within the multiuser communication session is changed based on a shared or unshared status, or whether a user is interacting with the object. The movement of a user of a first device is monitored within a first physical environment comprising shared objects and unshared objects, where the shared objects are visible to the user and an additional user of a second device in a second physical environment, the first device and the second device are active in a multiuser communication session, and the unshared objects are visible to the user and are not visible to the additional user. An interaction of the user with an unshared object is detected. In accordance with the detection of the interaction of the user with the unshared object, a representation of at least a portion of the unshared object is provided for presentation by the second device.

Abstract: A state of a multi-user communication session is saved in response to detection of an application state saving event, or a session state saving event. During runtime, application state saving events may be detected for each application executing during a session. Application state parameters are saved in response to each application state saving event, from which the application may be launched to the saved state. In response to a state saving event, the most recent application state information for each application executing in the session are collected and stored such that the multi-user communication session may be launched to the saved state, including each application executing in the session.
