Abstract:
Aspects of the subject technology relate to systems and methods for processing voice input data. Voice input data is received from a computing. An intended task is determined based on the received voice input data. Contextual information related to the intended task is obtained. A plurality of services to be accessed at the computing device is determined based on the intended task and the obtained contextual information. Instructions associated with the plurality of services are provided for transmission to the computing device for execution at the computing device.
Abstract:
A system and machine-implemented method of adjusting a size of an active region within a graphical user interface are provided. A stored association is accessed between a first input element of a graphical user interface and prior touch input corresponding to the first input element. Based on the accessed association, a size of an active region for at least one of the first input element or a second input element of the graphical user interface may be increased or decreased. The graphical user interface based on the increased or decreased size of the active region is displayed.
Abstract:
Methods for providing visual feedback when an end area of content is reached are provided. In one aspect, a method includes receiving an input in a first direction to at least one of scroll, rotate, or scale a portion of content provided for display, and determining whether an edge of the content in the first direction is reached in response to the input. The method also includes applying a stretch effect to the displayed portion of content when the determination indicates an edge of the content in the first direction is reached. Systems and machine-readable media are also provided.
Abstract:
A system and machine-implemented method for matching input gestures on a touch interface to a security pattern to allow user access to an electronic device or account. The security pattern may correspond to a combination of linear and non-linear input gestures relating to directional changes of the input gestures. A determination of the security pattern may be based on the end motion and speed of each input gesture.
Abstract:
A system and machine-implemented method for providing a visual cue of overscrolling displayed content on an electronic device. When the end of a scrollable page or content has been reached, the visual cue corresponds to the user's physical scrolling input. The content in the window is effectively attached to the window so that when the end of the content is reached in one direction, the window containing the content is pulled in the same scrolling direction. The pulling in the scrolling direction occurs in a logarithmically decreasing manner, providing a tactile-like visual effect that the outer frame of the window is resisting the attempt to scroll further in the scrolling direction. The visual resistance effect may include squishing or stretching portions of the window without distorting the content within the window.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the subject technology relate to systems, methods, and machine-readable media for providing a light bar for a web browser in an immersive mode. A system is configured to display a web browser in a first browsing mode, wherein the browser in the first browsing mode comprises one or more tabs and receive, from a user, an indication to enter a second browsing mode for the web browser. In response to receiving the indication, the web browser may be displayed in the second browsing mode in which the one or more tabs are not shown. One or more light bars may also be displayed in a display area of the web browser at locations corresponding with the one or more tabs. Each of the one or more light bars is associated with one of the one or more tabs.
Abstract:
The disclosed subject matter relates to a method for managing display of a window. In certain aspects, the method includes presenting a window in a display area, wherein the window comprises a control icon, receiving a first input indicating a selection of the control icon and presenting a plurality of selectable options associated with the control icon, wherein each of the plurality of selectable options correspond with one of an up direction, a down direction, a left direction or a right direction. In certain aspects, the method further includes receiving a second input indicating a selection of a first one of the plurality of selectable options and adjusting a size of the window in response to the second input based on a direction associated with the first one of the plurality of selectable options. Systems and computer-readable media are also provided.
Abstract:
The subject disclosure relates to associating contacts with corresponding system actions. It includes identifying a contact profile for configuring with system actions, based on one or more of an address book, user input, online accounts, or an interaction with a contact corresponding to the contact profile, retrieving contact information for the identified contact profile and determining at least one available system action based on the retrieved contact information for the identified contact profile. The disclosure also includes generating, based on the retrieved contact information, a system icon representing the contact profile for displaying the contact profile in a graphic user interface component of an operating system and associating the at least one available system action with the contact profile by configuring the at least one available system action to automatically launch when selected at the system icon representing the contact profile.
Abstract:
A system and method for registering a client device to obtain network access from a provider device. A server receives an authorization request for a user account to provide network access from provider devices associated with the user account to client devices associated with the user account. The server receives a unique identifier for each of the client devices, and provides the unique identifier for each of the client devices to each of the provider devices. The server provides an indication to at least one provider device to monitor for a request for network access from at least one client device, the request from the client device comprising the unique identifier of the client device. The provider device is configured to provide network access information to the client device in response to the request.
Abstract:
On a computing device, an overview mode is provided to present overview windows of all applications currently running on the computing device. When one or more applications are running in a windowed mode, a first overview window is generated for each of the one or more applications running in the windowed mode; when one or more applications are running in a full-screen mode, a second overview window is generated for each of the one or more applications running in the full-screen mode. The one or more first overview windows in the first space can be arranged in one or more rows in a first overview space, and the one or more second overview windows in the second space in a stack in a second overview space. The arranged overview windows may then be displayed in the overview mode of the computing device.
