Abstract
Described herein are techniques for adaptively displaying graphic elements (e.g., user interface elements) on a display of a device based on sensing proximity of an input device (e.g., a hand or fingertip of a user, a stylus, etc.) to the display of the device. For example, in response to an input device being detected to be less than a threshold distance from the display of the device, one or more graphic elements are presented or dynamically resized on the display. However, in response to no input device being detected to be less than the threshold distance from the display, the one or more graphic elements are not presented or are maintained in their current size on the display.
