  • Publication number: 20230377281
    Abstract: A third-party user input content item is presented on a user device of a user. A first content augmentation of the third-party user input content item by a first content augmentation function is determined. A camera graphical element is presented. The camera graphical element is user-selectable to invoke a camera function and cause presentation of a first content augmentation selection graphical element. Responsive to determining a user selection of the camera graphical element, the camera function is invoked. The user is enabled to select a second user input content item and the first content augmentation selection graphical element is user-selectable to invoke the first content augmentation function.

  • Publication number: 20230290027
    Abstract: A content display system can control which content and how the content is displayed based on viewing parameters, such as a map zoom level, and physical distance parameters, e.g., a geo-fence distance and an icon visibility distance. Different combinations of input (e.g., zoom level and physical distances) yield a myriad of pre-set content displays on the client device, thereby allowing a creator of an icon to finely tune how content displayed otherwise accessed.

  • Publication number: 20230280879
    Abstract: A map-based graphical user interface (GUI) for a public messaging platform allows a user location-based to their own expired ephemeral content. Such expired content is no longer available to other users for online viewing. The user can, however, switch the GUI between a live mode and a historical mode, access to their own expired content in the historical mode being facilitated in a manner closely similar to that for viewing live publicly available content.

  • Patent number: 4986005
    Abstract: An upholstery pleat layout device having a pounce template with a plurality of parallel rows of apertures and a pounce applicator assembly. The pounce template preferably further includes indexing indicia positioned in indexed relation to the rows of apertures to enable the template to be moved between a plurality of index positions for the formation of pleat layout patterns by a combination of pounce markings. The applicator assembly includes a felt applicator, a piece of chalk and a chalk holder supporting the chalk in a position for rubbing of the felt applicator across the surface of the chalk to transfer chalk pounce to the applicator for subsequent transfer of pounce from the applicator through the pounce template.
