Abstract
Disclosed is an improved system for performing intelligent text reduction on text strings for optimal display in a variety of user interface display elements. The system includes a smart text reduction algorithm that can shorten text strings as necessary in response to resizing the user interface or elements therein. The system also includes a design time user interface for application developers (or other users) to design graphical user interfaces in a collaborative workspace. The design time user interface incorporates the smart text reduction algorithm to enable designers to modify user interface display elements and run the text reduction algorithm on any text strings that no longer fit within the modified display elements. The described embodiments can also translate text strings of user interface display elements and can execute the smart text shortening algorithm on the translated text strings accordingly.
