A method is described for dynamically determining session boundary coordinates within a canvas. As described, an initial explored area of the canvas is defined. The initial explored area is expanded. When the size of the expanded explored area of the canvas reaches a predefined maximum size, the explored area coordinates are set as the session boundary coordinates. A computing device and a non-transitory computer readable medium having instructions configured to implement the method are also described.

Dynamically determining workspace bounds during a collaboration session

A computer implement method for creating a user group is provided. In accordance with the method, a temporary session identifier is generated for a first session associated with the user group. The temporary session identifier is communicated to a display for presentation. Requests to join the first session are received from a plurality of users. The requests include the temporary session identifier. User identifiers of the plurality of users are correlated with the temporary session identifier. The user group is created, comprising the user identifiers of the plurality of users and a name for said user group. The user group is stored in memory. A computing device and a non-transitory computer readable medium configured to implement the method are also described.
