  • Devices, Methods, and Graphical User Interfaces for Interacting with Window Controls in Three-Dimensional Environments
    Publication number: 20240152245
    Abstract: A computer system displays a first object that includes at least a first portion of the first object and a second portion of the first object and detects a first gaze input that meets first criteria, wherein the first criteria require that the first gaze input is directed to the first portion of the first object in order for the first criteria to be met. In response, the computer system displays a first control element that corresponds to a first operation associated with the first object, wherein the first control element was not displayed prior to detecting that the first gaze input met the first criteria, and detects a first user input directed to the first control element. In response to detecting the first user input directed to the first control element, the computer system performs the first operation with respect to the first object.

  • User interfaces for filtering electronic calendar data sets
    Patent number: 11328263
    Abstract: A method may include receiving a request to save the exception to the first rule; in response to the request, updating the user interface, wherein: the first portion is updated to include a parameter of a second rule to exclude a subset of meetings from the ECDS; the second portion is updated to include an impact metric that indicates a percentage of meetings excluded from the ECDS based on an application of the second rule to the ECDS; and the third portion is updated to include selectable elements for creating an exception to the second rule; and a fourth portion of the user interface includes an indication of a number of meetings excluded from the ECDS based on application of the first rule with any exceptions to the first rule.

  • System for identification of outlier groups
    Patent number: 11030214
    Abstract: A method may include retrieving metric data on a plurality of groups of users, the metric data including: a value of a performance metric for each of the plurality of groups; and an indication that a first group of the plurality of groups is anomalous with respect to a value of the performance metric of a control group of the plurality of groups; and presenting a user interface, the user interface including: a first portion including a visualization of a comparison of the value of the performance metric for the first group and values of the performance metric of other groups in the plurality of groups; and a second portion including a visualization of trend data of the performance metric for the first group over a period of time.
