Positioning content in computer-generated displays based on available display space

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing one or more instructions which, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform:

• receiving, at a first electronic device, shared content that a second electronic device has shared with a plurality of computer devices;
• displaying the shared content on a display of the first electronic device in a shared area;
• receiving, at the first electronic device, self-view content from a camera that is coupled to the first electronic device;
• selecting a first area of the display of the first electronic device for displaying the self-view content;
• determining whether the first area of the display of the first electronic device overlaps the shared area;
• in response to determining that the first area overlaps with the shared area:
• determining whether the display has an available different area that does not overlap the shared area;
• in response to determining the available different area that does not overlap the shared area, displaying the self-view content in the available different area.

A computer implemented method comprising:

• receiving, at a first computer, shared content that a second computer has shared with a plurality of computers that are involved in a video conference;
• displaying the shared content on a display of the first computer in a shared area;
• receiving, at the first computer, self-view image content from a camera that is coupled to the first computer;
• selecting a first area of the display of the first computer;
• determining whether the first area overlaps the shared area;
• in response to determining that the first area overlaps the shared area, determining whether the display has an available area that does not overlap the shared area and that has a specified size, and in response to determining the available area that does not overlap the shared area and has the specified size, displaying the self-view image content in the available area.
