Embodiments include a computing system configured to display an icon label with a dynamic display characteristic. The system may receive an indication of an icon representing a data object, determine a type of the data object, and based on the determined type, dynamically determine a label that is associated with the data object and includes a dynamic display characteristic. A user interface display is generated that includes the icon having a display portion configured to display the label with the dynamic display characteristic.

Dynamic display of icon data

Where a label for an item to be represented by an icon is customized, the icon is generated to dynamically display all of the label. Thus, at some point, the entire label is displayed, even though only a portion of the label is eventually displayed in the icon.
