Abstract
Automatic user interface object organization is provided. A user dependent user desktop map is maintained for objects a user manipulates. The user desktop map allows automatic object location, dimension and appearance changes to a newly spawned object according to the state of the object from its last existence on a data processing system user interface for that particular user. Objects not found in a desktop map have user desktop map entries automatically added to the desktop map, and the objects are maintained appropriately to ensure an organized user interface according to user preference.
