Three-dimensional data can be synchronized between a first electronic device and a second electronic device. A content creation application may be running on the first electronic device and may utilize a data file describing a three-dimensional content item. A two-dimensional representation of the content item may be displayed on the first electronic device. A user may request to preview the two-dimensional representation of the content item in three-dimensions. The first electronic device may initiate a data transfer with the second electronic device. The three-dimensional data of the data file may be transferred, via a communication link, from the content creation of the first electronic device to a three-dimensional graphic rendering application at the second electronic device. The three-dimensional graphic rendering application may generate a preview of the content item in three-dimensions based on the received three-dimensional data.

Selection of visualization objects, such as applications windows, is performed by determining a position of a system object. A graphical representation of a system object can be positioned over a display area of an application interface. The application interface is preeminently displayed in response to a graphical representation of system object being positioned over a corresponding display area of the application interface.

User interface for application interface manipulation

In one embodiment, a method of generating a computer-generated reality (CGR) file includes receiving, via one or more input devices, user input generating a computer-generated reality (CGR) scene, a user input associating an anchor with the CGR scene, user input associating one or more CGR objects with the CGR scene, wherein the CGR objects are to be displayed in association with the anchor, and user input associating a behavior with the CGR scene, wherein the behavior includes one or more triggers and actions and wherein the actions are performed in response to detecting any of the triggers. The method includes generating a CGR file including data regarding the CGR scene, the CGR file including data regarding the anchor, the CGR objects, and the behavior.

Device, method, and graphical user interface for composing CGR files

Methods and apparatuses for controlling application programs are described. A first item and a docking interface having a second item are displayed on a screen space. A selection of the first item is received. A proxy of the first item is positioned over the second item. Next, a window is displayed in response positioning. An application is executing to display the window. In another embodiment, synchronizing a first docking interface on a first screen space of a first machine to a second docking interface on a second screen space of a second machine is performed. The first docking interface has an item that identifies a first application supported by the first machine and the second docking interface has another item that identifies a second application supported by the second machine.

Methods and apparatuses to control application programs

Systems, methods, computer-readable mediums, user interfaces and other implementations are disclosed for workflow widgets. In some implementations, a widget workflow method includes: launching a widget at a first device; and updating the widget with content created at a second device.

Workflow widgets

An icon receptacle is disposed along a depth aspect, and one or more icons are disposed within the icon receptacle, one of which is a stack item.

Visualization object receptacle

User interfaces for multiple display regions are described. One embodiment provides an array of non-overlapping windows that are created from a set of overlapping windows, and a user can select one of the non-overlapping windows to obtain an enlarged view of that selected window while keeping the other windows in their non-overlapping state. In one embodiment, the array of non-overlapping windows can include minimized windows or windows in other virtual desktops (e.g. windows in other 'Spaces') or both. In one embodiment, only windows of a selected application are shown in non-overlapping mode while opened windows of other applications are not shown.

User interface for multiple display regions

A user interface can have one or more spaces presented therein. A space is a grouping of one or more program windows in relation to windows of other application programs, such that the program(s) of only a single space is visible when the space is active. A view can be generated of all spaces and their contents.

User interface spaces

A widget manager facilitates management of widgets in a dashboard layer. Management functions can include enablement, preview, importation, exportation, organization, installation, deletion, acquisition, etc.
