Patent number: 11934647Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for using modularized digital editing action blocks in a graphical user interface to generate and apply a variety of advanced modifications to a digital image. The disclosed systems can categorize the digital editing action blocks into digital editing action categories from which a user can select a digital editing action block and insert into a field of a node compositor. Once the digital editing action block is arranged at a compatible field within the digital editing user interface, the snap effects system can execute the digital editing action block to create a particular graphical effect according to the positional configuration of the digital editing action block within the node compositor. In turn, the snap effects system can save the action-block configuration within the node compositor and facilitate additional use and/or sharing thereof.Type: GrantFiled: April 7, 2020Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: Adobe Inc.Inventors: Holger Winnemoeller, Blake Williford

Patent number: 11488602Abstract: A collaborative content management system allows multiple users to access and modify collaborative documents. When audio data is recorded by or uploaded to the system, the audio data may be transcribed or summarized to improve accessibility and user efficiency. Text transcriptions are associated with portions of the audio data representative of the text, and users can search the text transcription and access the portions of the audio data corresponding to search queries for playback. An outline can be automatically generated based on a text transcription of audio data and embedded as a modifiable object within a collaborative document. The system associates hot words with actions to modify the collaborative document upon identifying the hot words in the audio data. Collaborative content management systems can also generate custom lexicons for users based on documents associated with the user for use in transcribing audio data, ensuring that text transcription is more accurate.Type: GrantFiled: February 20, 2018Date of Patent: November 1, 2022Assignee: Dropbox, Inc.Inventors: Timo Mertens, Bradley Neuberg
