  • Dual-purpose user-interface control for data submission and capturing feedback expressions
    Patent number: 11907975
    Abstract: A feedback button is configured to receive a feedback expression characterizing a user experience and submit information in a user interface with a single action. When the user hovers an input cursor near the feedback button, icons/text may be displayed that indicate different types of feedback expressions that may be submitted. As the user moves the cursor back and forth over the button, the icons for the different feedback expressions may be emphasized indicating locations where the button may be clicked to submit specific feedback. When the user is satisfied with the displayed feedback expression, the user may click the feedback button at the current location to submit the feedback expression and perform the final submit action for other data in the user interface.
