Abstract: Some examples of the disclosure are directed to presenting animated spatial effects within a computer-generated environment, such as an extended-reality environment. A communication associated with presenting a spatial effect may be received by an electronic device, and in response, the device may present the spatial effect with visual attributes that are selected by the device based on various criteria. Such visual attributes may include an emitting location, an emitting direction, a color, and/or a size of the spatial effect. The criteria used to select the visual attributes may include, for example, whether a representation of the sending user is displayed within the computer-generated environment, a direction of attention of the receiving user, and/or other criteria. Optionally, the spatial effect may include an audio portion with audio attributes that are also selected based on various criteria.
