Abstract: Described herein is a computer implemented method. The method includes accessing asset data defining a plurality of components. An overview GUI that includes a plurality of corresponding component previews is displayed, the plurality of component previews being displayed adjacent one another along an axis in an order that is based on a component order. The overview GUI further includes an audio element preview corresponding to an audio element, the audio element preview being aligned with the plurality of component previews in order to indicate the audio element's start time and end time. A first user input changing the display width of the first component preview is detected. In response, a new duration for the first component is determined and a determination that adjustment of the audio element is required is also determined.

Abstract: Non-limiting examples describe sharing of bundled content through an application/service. A first input may be received, through a user interface of the email service. The first input is associated with a selection of a user interface element for sharing of a bundle of emails that comprises a grouping of at least two separate email threads. A second input is received indicating one or more other users for sharing the bundle of emails. The bundle of emails is shared with the one or more other users. Sharing of the bundle of emails creates a sharing permission that enables multi-directional sharing between the user and the one or more other users for current content of the shared bundle of emails and future content added to the shared bundle of emails. The shared bundle of emails is displayed inline with other emails of an email mailbox of the user through the user interface.

Abstract: Non-limiting examples describe automated management of rich content previews associated with bundled content of an application/service. As an example, a bundle of content may be a bundle of emails created within an email service. Email content associated with a bundle of emails may be accessed. The email content may be evaluated based on application of machine learning model that: determines an entity type associated with the bundle of emails based on the tag, identifies a state associated with the bundle of emails, and determines relevancy of specific email content in association with a determined entity type and the identified state associated with the bundle of emails. A rich content preview for the bundle of emails may be generated based on an evaluation of the email content.

Abstract: Non-limiting examples describe enhanced searching and filtering of message content by an application/service. Processing operations described herein are applicable to any type of message content including but not limited to bundled content of an email service. A search input may be received through a user interface of an email service. The search input may be for searching emails associated with a mailbox the email service. Email results may be retrieved based on the received search input. The retrieved email results may be categorized into one or more categories. A smart filter may be generated for filtering the retrieved email results. An exemplary smart filter may comprise at least one filter field that corresponds to category specific content extracted from emails of a category of the one or more categories. The email results and the smart filter may be displayed through the user interface of the email service.

Abstract: Systems for determining and presenting consensus based on evaluating a message conversation are described. A consensus determination application may automatically parse each message of a series of messages related to a topic, using natural language processing or similar methods, to determine one or more suggestions and corresponding opinions for the one or more suggestions contained within those messages. The consensus for each of the one or more suggestions may be presented to a user. By viewing the automatically-determined consensus, the user may, without reading and evaluating all of the messages within the conversation, understand the level of consensus regarding the topic across the group of message participants. Accordingly, user burden is reduced and users may more effectively debate ideas and present suggestions with fewer misunderstandings, leading to an overall better user experience.

Abstract: Non-limiting examples describe automated bundling of content on behalf of a user by an application/service. As an example, a bundle of content may be a bundle of emails created on behalf of a user by an email service. Email data associated with a user account of an email service may be accessed. The email data may be evaluated by applying a bundle generation model that that evaluates the emails for bundling associations. An exemplary bundle generation model may evaluate the email data based on: user signal data from actions pertaining to categorization of specific emails, content and metadata corresponding with the email data, and server side metric analysis of activity corresponding with the user account. A bundle of emails may be automatically generated based on an evaluation result from applying the bundle generation model. The bundle of emails may be transmitted for display in a mailbox of the user account.

Abstract: An electronic mail (email) system generates an email user interface display, that allows the user to enter message content. A context-sensitive calendar preview can be triggered and displayed on the email user interface display. The email system detects a user drag and drop input dragging at least a portion of the message content onto the calendar preview, and automatically generates a calendar event based upon the detected drag and drop input, and the particular portion of the message content dragged onto the context-sensitive calendar preview.
