US 10,379,970 B2 · Automatic design discrepancy reporting

Abstract

A digital medium environment is described for automatic design discrepancy reporting of discrepancies between an actual display and its intended design. In one example, a design validation system generates a design screen model for a design screen, based on an object included in the design screen and at least one display property that defines a visual appearance of the object. The design validation system then identifies an application object that has a similar visual appearance to the defined visual appearance of the object of the design screen model. The design validation system additionally determines that a discrepancy exists between a display of the design screen model object and the application object. The design validation system also determines a value by which the at least one property of the application object is to be adjusted and outputs the value to adjust the at least one display property of the application object.

Dependent claims

In a digital medium environment to facilitate automatic design discrepancy reporting, a method implemented by at least one computing device, the method comprising:

generating, by the at least one computing device, a design screen model for a design screen, the design screen model based on an object included in the design screen and at least one display property that defines a visual appearance of the object;
identifying, by the at least one computing device, an application object included in an application screen that has a similar visual appearance to the defined visual appearance of the object of the design screen model;
determining, by the at least one computing device, that a discrepancy exists between the at least one display property for the object in the design screen model and at least one display property of the application object;
determining, by the at least one computing device, a value by which the at least one display property of the application object is to be adjusted in order to at least partially remedy the discrepancy;
and
outputting, by the at least one computing device, the value to adjust the at least one display property of the application object.

In a digital medium environment to facilitate automatic design discrepancy reporting, a system comprising:

a parsing module implemented at least partially in hardware of a computing device to generate an artboard rendition and a design screen model for each of a plurality of design screens, each said artboard rendition including an image representation of the design screen and each said design screen model based on an object included in the design screen and at least one display property that defines a visual appearance of the object;
a visual similarity module implemented at least partially in hardware of the computing device to identify one of the generated artboard renditions that is visually similar to an application screen that includes an application object for display;
an object analysis module implemented at least partially in hardware of the computing device to identify at least one said design screen model that corresponds to the visually similar artboard rendition and determine a discrepancy between the at least one display property of the object and at least one display property of the application object;
and
a discrepancy report module implemented at least partially in hardware of the computing device to:
generate a transformation that indicates a value by which the at least one display property of the application object is to be adjusted in order to at least partially remedy the discrepancy;
generate an automatically modified application display by creating a copy of the application screen and adjusting the at least one display property of the application object by the value;
and
output the automatically modified application display.
