Abstract
Systems, apparatus, methods and computer program products are described below for rendering a graphical user interface by selectively compositing display contents. In general for each of one or more content producers, where each content producer is associated with content storage containing display content, display content for output is identified depending on the content consumer to which the graphical user interface is being rendered.
Claims22
A display method, comprising:
- receiving a request to display content associated with a primary memory buffer and a secondary memory buffer, the content further associated with one or more rendering restrictions;
- identifying a content consumer based on one or more of the content, the primary memory buffer and the secondary memory buffer;
- determining whether the content consumer satisfies all of the one or more rendering restrictions;
- rendering content from the primary memory buffer when it has been determined that the content consumer satisfies all of the one or more rendering restrictions;
- and
- rendering content from the secondary memory buffer when it has been determined that the content consumer violates one or more of the one or more rendering restrictions.
3 more elements
A display system, comprising:
- a data processing apparatus;
- a memory coupled to the data processing apparatus, the memory storing instructions executable by the data processing apparatus, the instructions comprising instructions to:
- receive a request to display content associated with one or more rendering restrictions;
- identify a content consumer based on one or more of the content, a primary memory buffer and a secondary memory buffer;
- determine whether the content consumer satisfies all of the one or more rendering restrictions;
- render content from the primary memory buffer when it has been determined the content consumer satisfies all of the one or more rendering restrictions;
- and
- render content from the secondary memory buffer when it has been determined that the content consumer violates one or more of the one or more rendering restrictions.
