  • Patent number: 10990279
    Abstract: A computing device is described that receives a notification generated by a notification source, determines a set of notification channels defined by the notification source, each notification channel having one or more parameters defined by the notification source, and determines a particular notification channel from the set of notification channels assigned to the notification. The computing device determines one or more parameters of the particular notification channel and outputs an indication of the notification according to the one or more parameters of the particular notification channel. In this way, a user may be provided with an indication of the manner in which a given notification is being handled by the computing device. This may provide further information on the notification itself and allow efficient interaction in light of the knowledge thereby provided.

  • Publication number: 20200019291
    Abstract: A computing device is described that receives, from a source, a notification. The computing device determines content of the notification other than a quantity of notifications currently pending for the source of the notification and based at least in part on the content, determines a notification badge that reflects the content of the notification. The device displays the notification badge near a graphical element for launching the source of the notification. In reflecting content of the notification, the badge icon may facilitate efficient interaction with the computing device by resolving one or more ambiguities that would otherwise arise.

  • Patent number: 10306049
    Abstract: In some implementations, a computer-implemented method of displaying alert information with a mobile communication device includes displaying device status indicators to a user of a mobile device in a status area; receiving information from an application to display an alert in the status area; displaying in the status area a first level of information for the alert and a user-selectable control; and displaying, in response to a selection of the user-selectable control, a second level of information for the alert that provides greater detail than the first level of information.

  • Publication number: 20180136789
    Abstract: In some examples, a computing device includes at least one processor, wherein the at least one processor is configured to output for display, a graphical user interface comprising a plurality of partitions, wherein each respective partition of the plurality of partitions is a non-overlapping region of the graphical user interface and each respective partition of the plurality of partitions is individually addressable by the window manager module. The at least one processor may receive from an application module, a request to output, for display, information indicated by the application module, wherein the request addresses a particular partition of the plurality of partitions in which to display the information. The at least one processor may output for display a window including the information in the particular partition.

  • Patent number: 9830056
    Abstract: A computing device outputs an arrangement of a set of windows organized into one or more visual stacks. Each respective visual stack from the one or more visual stacks comprises a respective subset of the set of windows sequenced based on a characteristic. The computing device determines that a first window from the set of windows has a particular relationship with a second window from the set of windows, wherein the particular relationship is not based on the characteristic. The computing device outputs, responsive to the determining, a visual indication of the first window that visually differentiates the first window from windows from the set of windows not having the particular relationship with the second window.

  • Patent number: 9547439
    Abstract: A computing device outputs, for display, a virtual keyboard comprising a plurality of virtual keys. Furthermore, the computing device receives an indication of a first movement of an input object along a spatial path. The computing device determines, based on locations of the virtual keys and locations along the spatial path, a plurality of character strings. In response to determining that the first movement has ceased for at least a threshold amount of time, the computing device outputs, for display, the plurality of character strings. While the character strings are displayed, the computing device receives an indication of a second movement of the input object. The computing device selects, in response to the indication of the second movement, and based at least in part on a direction of the second movement of the input object, a particular character string from the plurality of character strings.

  • Publication number: 20160350136
    Abstract: In general, this disclosure is directed to techniques for outputting, by a computing device and for display at a display component that is operatively coupled to the computing device, a graphical user interface of an application. The computing device determines context data from content included in the graphical user interface. The computing device further determines, based at least in part on the context data, an indication of assistance that is contextually related to the content included in the graphical user interface. The computing device outputs the indication of the assistance.
