Sharing a perspective view with users in a web conference by identifying each user participating in a web conference, determining a role of at least two users participating in the web conference, determining a first user provides screen content to the web conference, wherein the provided screen content of the first user corresponds to a first view of the first user, generating a second perspective view of the provided screen content of the first user for a second user, and providing the second view of the provided screen content to the second user.

Message display control means updates and displays messages sequentially on a message list screen each time message receiving means receives a message. When input detection means detects a response message, identification means identifies the latest message at the time of detection and the response message. Response message sending means sends the response message as a response to the identified message to other participants upon completion of input of the response message. Therefore, even in the case where the message list screen is updated due to receiving the subsequent message during the input of the response message, the completed response message is able to be sent back to the response object message.

A group-based communication platform is configured to initialize processing actions executable via validated external resources. Moreover, the group-based communication platform may recommend specific processing actions to a user based at least in part on the user's activity in interacting with the group-based communication platform (e.g., via a client device), wherein such activity may be represented as environmental contextual data. Moreover, once the user selects a particular processing action for execution, the group-based communication retrieves at least a portion of the generated environmental contextual data to be passed to the validated external resource for use in executing the selected processing action.

Methods and systems for creating and managing electronic communications are disclosed. Exemplary methods can compress and encrypt meeting information and encode the compressed and encrypted meeting information into a uniform resource locator (URL) for transmission between one or more devices and a conferencing server.

A method includes displaying a message within an interface of a group-based communication platform on a device associated with a user; receiving, from the user, a selection of a first reactive emoji having a first skin tone for display in association with the message; and in response, displaying a first instance of the selected first reactive emoji having the first skin tone in a first grouping with at least a second instance of the first reactive emoji having a second skin tone different than the first skin tone, wherein the first grouping of the first instance and the at least the second instance is displayed in association with the message.

A collaboration system is provided and includes memory storing collaboration data including a spatial event map locating events in a virtual workspace and a local display including a screen space. The collaboration system further includes logic to identify a local client viewport in the virtual workspace, logic to render, in the screen space on the local display, graphical objects identified by events in the spatial event map that have locations within the local client viewport, logic to change a location and a dimension of the local client viewport in the virtual workspace in response to input signals, logic to render, in the screen space on the local display, graphical objects identified by events in the spatial event map that have locations within the changed local client viewport, and logic to generate a viewport change event in response to the change of the local client viewport in response to input signals.

The present disclosure generally relates to embodiments for video communication interface for managing content that is shared during a video communication session.

Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing a program and method for configuring 360-degree video within a virtual conferencing system. The program and method provide, in association with designing a room for virtual conferencing, a first interface for configuring at least one participant video element which is assignable to a respective participant video feed; receive, via the first interface, an indication of user input for setting first properties for the at least one participant video element; provide, in association with designing the room for virtual conferencing, a second interface for configuring a 360-degree video element which is assignable to a 360-degree video source; receive, via the second interface, an indication of user input for setting second properties for the 360-degree video element; and provide, in association with virtual conferencing, display of the room based on the first properties and the second properties.

Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing a program and method for updating a room element within a virtual conferencing system. The program and method provide for providing, in association with designing a room for virtual conferencing, an interface for setting properties of elements within a room; receiving, via the interface, an indication of first user input setting a property of an element within the room; providing, based on the first user input, a virtual conference between plural participants within the room, the room including the element; receiving, via the interface and during the virtual conference, an indication of second user input updating the property of the element within the room; and updating, based on the second user input and during the virtual conference, the property of the element.

A server and computer implemented method for sharing physical writing actions, the method comprising the steps of: detecting, at each of a plurality of computing devices associated with a meeting, one or more physical writing actions being performed on physical writing surfaces; generating writing signals based on the physical writing actions; transmitting the generated writing signals to a server; forwarding, via the server, the writing signals for receipt at the plurality of computing devices associated with the meeting; and each computing device outputting a representation of the physical writing actions.
