US 2019/0377586 A1 · GENERATING CUSTOMIZED USER INTERFACE LAYOUT(S) OF GRAPHICAL ITEM(S)

Abstract

The disclosed system generates a customized layout based on an analysis of characteristics of graphical items to be displayed. The graphical items can include user interface (UI) control elements (e.g., buttons, a menu, menu options, etc.) streamed content (e.g., video feeds), file content of different types (e.g., text, images, etc.), or other items that can be displayed to a user. The system can analyze preferred characteristics that are based on previously selected graphical items and previously used layouts. The system can then configure a customized layout that includes one or more display areas. Each display area contains at least one graphical item. The preferred characteristics can be used to automatically select graphical items that have a characteristic that correlates with a characteristic of a previously selected graphical item. The customized layout can then be presented to a user.

Dependent claims

A system comprising:

one or more processing units;
and
a computer-readable medium having encoded thereon computer-executable instructions to cause the one or more processing units to:
analyze a plurality of video feeds being input to a communication session to identify characteristics associated with individual video feeds;
access information defining preferred characteristics determined from previously selected video feeds;
configure a plurality of layouts, wherein an individual layout comprises a plurality of display areas, wherein individual display areas contain a video feed of the plurality of video feeds and the video feed is selected based on a correspondence between the characteristics of the video feed and the preferred characteristics;
populate a graphical user interface with the plurality of layouts;
configure a control that enables a selection of one of the plurality of layouts;
and
based on the selection of the one of the plurality of layouts using the control, cause the one of the plurality of layouts to be displayed in the communication session.
