Abstract
Disclosed herein are various embodiments for an augmented reality contextual menu system. An embodiment operates by receiving a request to open a file from a user. A social media channel associated with the user is identified, wherein the social media channel includes shared media. A graphical social icon representing the social media channel is generated based on the shared media. A plurality of icons, including the graphical social icon, are displayed responsive to the request. A selection of the graphical social icon causes at least a portion of the social media channel to be rendered with a computing workspace.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving a request to open a program or file from a user;
- identifying a first social media channel of a plurality of social media channels of a social media platform, wherein the first social media channel is being followed by the user on the social media platform, and wherein the first social media channel includes a plurality of media shared with the user on the first social media channel;
- selecting a first item and a second item from the media shared with the user on the first social media channel;
- generating a graphical social icon representing the first social media channel including both the first item and the second item, wherein the second item is behind the first item as part of the graphical social icon;
- and
- displaying a plurality of icons, including the graphical social icon, responsive to the request, wherein a selection of the graphical social icon causes at least a portion of the social media channel to be rendered with a computing workspace.
A system, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- at least one processor coupled to the memory and configured to execute instructions that cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:
- receiving a request to open a program or file from a user;
- identifying a first social media channel of a plurality of social media channels of a social media platform, wherein the first social media channel is being followed by the user on the social media platform, and wherein the first social media channel includes a plurality of media shared with the user on the first social media channel;
- selecting a first item and a second item from the media shared with the user on the first social media channel;
- generating a graphical social icon representing the first social media channel including both the first item and the second item, wherein the second item is behind the first item as part of the graphical social icon;
- and
- displaying a plurality of icons, including the graphical social icon, responsive to the request, wherein a selection of the graphical social icon causes at least a portion of the first social media channel to be rendered with a computing workspace.
A non-transitory computer-readable device having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by at least one computing device, cause the at least one computing device to perform operations comprising:
- receiving a request to open a program or file from a user;
- identifying a first social media channel of a plurality of social media channels of a social media platform, wherein the first social media channel is being followed by the user on the social media platform, and wherein the first social media channel includes a plurality of media shared with the user on the first social media channel;
- selecting a first item and a second item from the media shared with the user on the first social media channel;
- generating a graphical social icon representing the first social media channel including both the first item and the second item, wherein the second item is behind the first item as part of the graphical social icon;
- and
- displaying a plurality of icons, including the graphical social icon, responsive to the request, wherein a selection of the graphical social icon causes at least a portion of the social media channel to be rendered with a computing workspace.
