  • Patent number: 9870362
    Abstract: The techniques and systems described herein efficiently and effectively enable an author to create an interactive, data-driven presentation during an authoring stage. Moreover, the techniques and systems enable a consumer to interact with the data-driven presentation during a consuming stage. For example, the techniques and systems generate and output graphical user interfaces that enable an author to define consumer interaction settings so a consumer of the presentation can: switch between alternative types of visual elements (e.g., charts), determine whether a visual element is presented with or without animation, determine a presentation timing of visual elements and/or textual elements, determine presentation styles (e.g., color scheme, font type, etc.), filter a set of data presented in a visual element so that a subset of the data can be viewed or distinguished, and/or adjust a scale associated with a visual element (e.g., change a scale for an axis of a chart).
