Procedurally generating sets of probabilistically distributed styling attributes for a digital design

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions thereon that, when executed by at least one processor, cause a system to:

• identify, in an initial digital design, a plurality of styling attributes each having an initial styling value;
• identify a plurality of potential replacement styling values for a first styling attribute of the plurality of styling attributes;
• determine a compatibility score for each potential replacement styling value for the first styling attribute that indicates a compatibility of the potential replacement styling value with the initial digital design by determining how changing a design element in the digital design to have a given replacement styling value will effect one or more of:
• proximity to other design elements, visibility of the design element, color contrast with other design elements, font similarity with other design elements, or text content of displayed text;
• weight, based on the determined compatibility score for each potential replacement styling value for the first styling attribute, each potential replacement styling value for the first styling attribute;
• select, based on the weights for each potential replacement styling value for the first styling attribute, a replacement styling value for the first styling attribute;
• and
• apply the selected replacement styling value to the digital design to generate an updated digital design by changing the initial styling value for the first styling attribute of the digital design to match the selected replacement styling value for the first styling attribute.

A system comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions thereon that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the system to:
• identify a plurality of styling attributes in an initial design of a digital media item, wherein each of the plurality of styling attributes is associated with a plurality of styling values;
• determine, for each styling attribute, a compatibility score for each of the plurality of styling values that indicates a compatibility of the styling values with the initial design of the digital media item;
• identify, for each styling attribute, styling values having a compatibility score above a predetermined threshold;
• generate, for each styling attribute, a probabilistically distributed set of styling values with compatibility scores above the predetermined threshold;
• identify a position of a graphical user interface control set by a user;
• select styling values from each probabilistically distributed set of styling values based on the identified position of the graphical user interface control;
• generate a styling combination of the selected styling values;
• and
• applying the generated styling combination to the initial design of the digital media item to generate an updated design of the digital media item by changing the initial design to match the generated styling combination.
