Abstract
A computing device obtains prescribed sequences of code points for respective pictographs (e.g., 'emojis') from a prescribed destination, determines identifiable graphical subcomponents from the prescribed sequence of code points for each pictograph, and maps the identifiable graphical subcomponents into distinct pattern marker types used for generation of a selected pictograph. The mapping includes aggregating selected graphical subcomponents from among the pictographs as distinct options for an identified one of the pattern marker types. The computing device causes display of the pictographs as a grouping together of respective variations relative to a root pictograph that is based on the identified one of the pattern marker types, where the grouping is based on arranging the distinct options for the pattern marker types relative to the root pictograph, enabling a user selection of the selected pictograph within the grouping relative to the root pictograph.
