Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure relate to systems and methods for extending emoji reactions into file specific content. In one aspect, a file created with an application may be rendered on a user interface. One or more activities associated with the file created with the application may be obtained. In one example, the one or more activities include corresponding activity metadata. A file activity feed including the one or more activities associated with the file may be rendered within the file. The one or more activities may include at least an emoji icon displayed within at least one of the one or more activities.
Claims20
A system comprising:
- one or more computer readable storage media;
- and
- program instructions stored on the one or more computer readable storage media that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to at least:
- initiate rendering of a file created with an application on a user interface;
- obtain one or more activities associated with the file, wherein the one or more activities include corresponding activity metadata;
- render, within the file, a file activity feed including the one or more activities associated with the file, wherein the one or more activities include at least an emoji icon displayed within at least one of the one or more activities for extending emoji reactions into file specific content;
- perform an analysis on the one or more activities to determine whether to suggest one or more emoji based on at least one of the activity metadata and an activity type;
- when it is determined to suggest the one or more emoji, display a first navigable menu including at least the suggested emoji;
- and
- when it is determined not to suggest the one or more emoji, display a second navigable menu including a set of standard emoji.
A computer-implemented method for extending emoji reactions into file specific content, the method comprising:
- initiating rendering of a file created with an application on a user interface;
- in response to receiving a selection of an activity feed icon:
- obtaining one or more activities associated with the file, wherein the one or more activities include corresponding activity metadata;
- rendering, within the file, a file activity feed including the one or more activities associated with the file, wherein the one or more activities include at least an emoji icon displayed within at least one of the one or more activities for extending emoji reactions into file specific content;
- performing an analysis on the one or more activities to determine whether to suggest one or more emoji based on at least one of the activity metadata and an activity type;
- when it is determined to suggest the one or more emoji, displaying a first navigable menu including at least the suggested emoji;
- and
- when it is determined not to suggest the one or more emoji, displaying a second navigable menu including a set of standard emoji.
A system comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- memory encoding computer executable instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, perform a method for suggesting one or more emoji within a file created with an application, the method comprising:
- rendering, on a user interface, the file;
- obtaining one or more activities associated with the file, wherein the one or more activities include corresponding activity metadata;
- rendering, within the file, a file activity feed including the one or more activities associated with the file;
- determining whether to suggest one or more emoji based on at least one of the activity metadata and an activity type;
- when it is determined to suggest one or more emoji based on at least one of the activity metadata and the activity type, displaying a first navigable menu including at least the suggested emoji;
- and
- when it is determined not to suggest one or more emoji based on at least one of the activity metadata and the activity type, displaying a second navigable menu including a set of standard emoji.
