A method can include receiving a starting scene for display and an ending scene for display, the starting scene including at least a first graphical element in a first location and a second graphical element in a second location, the ending scene including at least the first graphical element in a third location and the second graphical element in a fourth location; generating multiple individual candidate animations based on the starting scene and the ending scene, each of the multiple candidate animations including display of the first graphical element transitioning from the first location to the second location and display of the second graphical element transitioning from the third location to the fourth location; for each of the multiple individual candidate animations, determining a score; selecting one of the individual candidate animations based on the determined scores for the individual candidate animations; and presenting the selected individual candidate animation.

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for providing contextual information for a notification. Logical relationships between panels for a user interface of the one or more computing devices are identified. A set of interface patterns that correspond to different logical relationships between panels and describe different spatial relationships for arranging panels having the corresponding logical relationships are obtained. At least one of the logical relationships between the panels for the user interface is determined to match a logical relationship corresponding to a particular interface pattern. The particular interface pattern is selected from among the set of interface patterns to specify the arrangement of the panels of the user interface. The user interface having the panels arranged in the user interface according to the particular interface pattern that is selected is provided.

Dynamically adapting panels of a user interface

A computing device outputs an arrangement of a set of windows organized into one or more visual stacks. Each respective visual stack from the one or more visual stacks comprises a respective subset of the set of windows sequenced based on a characteristic. The computing device determines that a first window from the set of windows has a particular relationship with a second window from the set of windows, wherein the particular relationship is not based on the characteristic. The computing device outputs, responsive to the determining, a visual indication of the first window that visually differentiates the first window from windows from the set of windows not having the particular relationship with the second window.

Indicating relationships between windows on a computing device

In one example, a technique may include outputting, by a computing device associated with a user and for playback at a first volume level by an audio output device, first audio data, receiving, by the computing device, audio input data, and responsive to determining, by the computing device, that the audio input data includes speech associated with an entity different from the user, determining, by the computing device and based at least in part on the audio input data, whether to output second audio data. The method may also include, responsive to determining to output the second audio data: determining, by the computing device, a second volume level lower than the first volume level, and outputting, by the computing device and for playback at the second volume level by the audio output device, the second audio data.

Attention-based dynamic audio level adjustment

While a computing device is in a limited-access state, the computing device may output for display a user interface element. Responsive to the computing device receiving an indication of a first user input at a region of a presence-sensitive input device that corresponds to at least a portion of the user interface element as displayed, the computing device may alter the visual appearance of the user interface element to indicate that the user interface element is selected. Responsive to the computing device determining that it has received the indication of the second user input at the region of the presence-sensitive input device within the predefined period of time subsequent to receiving the indication of the first user input, the computing device may activate the user interface element.

Preventing unintentional user activation of user interface elements

A computing device is described that receives an indication of a notification, and determines a priority level associated with the notification. The computing device determines, based at least in part on the priority level, content of the notification. Responsive to receiving an indication of a gesture detected at an input device, the computing device outputs, for display, a notification center graphical user interface that includes a graphical indication of the notification including the content of the notification.

Prioritized management and presentation of notifications

A computing device is described that receives an indication of a first gesture received at an input device. Responsive to receiving the indication of the first gesture, the computing device outputs, for display, a first information panel having a size. The computing device receives an indication of a second gesture received at the input device. The second gesture has a gesture length. Responsive to receiving the indication of the second gesture, the computing device outputs, for display, an updated graphical user interface that includes the first information panel and a second information panel. The second information panel has a panel length that corresponds to the gesture length of the second gesture.
