Abstract
Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and software for facilitating gallery environments and views. In at least one implementation an initial view is presented of tagged items arranged in tag groups. The tag groups correspond to tags and the tagged items are arranged in the tag groups based on with which of the tags each of the tagged items is associated. One of the groups may be identified for enhanced viewing. Accordingly, tagged items associated with the identified group, by way of their association with a tag corresponding to the group, are identified. In some implementations they may be referred to as enhanced tagged items. An enhanced view may then be presented of at least the enhanced tagged items.
Claims20
One or more computer readable storage media having program instructions stored thereon for facilitating views in a gallery that, when executed by a computing system, direct the computing system to at least:
- present an initial view of at least a plurality of tagged items arranged in a plurality of tag groups, corresponding to a plurality of tags, based on with which of the plurality of tags each of the plurality of tagged items is associated;
- identify an enhanced plurality of tagged items to present based at least in part on to which of the plurality of tags a tag group, identified from the plurality of tag groups for enhanced viewing, corresponds;
- and
- present an enhanced view of at least the enhanced plurality of tagged items;
- wherein the initial view comprises a plurality of rows corresponding to the plurality of groups and the enhanced view comprises one row shifted horizontally to bring at least one of the enhanced plurality of tagged items into view.
A method for facilitating views in a gallery comprising:
- presenting an initial view of at least a plurality of tagged items arranged in a plurality of tag groups, corresponding to a plurality of tags, based on with which of the plurality of tags each of the plurality of tagged items is associated;
- identifying an enhanced plurality of tagged items to present based at least in part on to which of the plurality of tags a tag group, identified from the plurality of tag groups for enhanced viewing, corresponds;
- and
- presenting an enhanced view of at least the enhanced plurality of tagged items;
- wherein the initial view comprises a plurality of rows corresponding to the plurality of groups and the enhanced view comprises one row shifted horizontally to bring at least one of the enhanced plurality of tagged items into view.
A computing apparatus comprising:
- a computer readable storage media;
- a gallery application comprising program instructions stored on the computer readable storage media that, when executed by a processing system, direct the processing system to at least:
- present an initial view of at least a plurality of tagged photos arranged in a plurality of rows based on a plurality of associations between the plurality of tagged photos and a plurality of tags corresponding to the plurality of rows;
- and
- in response to a user input, present an enhanced view of an enhanced plurality of tagged photos corresponding to a tag selected from the plurality of tags;
- wherein the enhanced view comprises one row shifted horizontally to bring at least one of the enhanced plurality of tagged items into view.
