Systems, devices, or methods for accessing information employing a tumbler-style graphical user interface
View Patent ↗A tumbler-style graphical user interfaces (TSGUI) facilitates high context rapid selection of content objects from at least a plurality of tumbler components. Selection of content objects can relate to a path for a memory to access a related final information. The TSGUI can be employed in mobile computing devices, including telephonic mobile computing devices. In an embodiment, a TSGUI of a mobile device can facilitate access to content in relation to messaging applications native to the mobile device.
1. A mobile device, comprising:
a processor; and
a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
subsequent to populating a child tumbler of a hierarchical presentation with a first set of first child objects, receiving input data that selects a first child object from the first set of first child objects, wherein the child tumbler is populated based on a selection of a first parent object displayed within a parent tumbler of the hierarchical presentation,
in response to determining that the first parent object has been updated to a second parent object in the parent tumbler and based on metadata associated with the first child object, repopulating the child tumbler with a second set of second child objects,
facilitating a display of the second parent object and a second child object that is determined to be selected from the second set of second child objects along a common axis, and
in response to determining that information representing a relationship between the second parent object and the second child object satisfies a validity criterion, facilitating a transmission of the second child object via a cross-platform messaging application of the mobile device.
2. The mobile device of claim 1 , wherein the metadata is first metadata and the operations further comprise:
organizing the second set of second child objects based on second metadata associated with the second set of second child objects.
3. The mobile device of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprise:
organizing the second set of second child objects based on temporal data associated with the second set of second child objects.
4. The mobile device of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprise:
organizing the second set of second child objects alphabetically.
5. The mobile device of claim 1 , wherein the facilitating the display comprises facilitating the display based on a characteristic of a display area of the mobile device.
6. The mobile device of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprise:
inserting the second child object into a text message of the cross-platform messaging application.
7. The mobile device of claim 1 , wherein the facilitating the display comprises highlighting the second child object based on historical data.
8. The mobile device of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprise:
in response to determining that the information does not satisfy the validity criterion, facilitating rendering of notification data that indicates that the validity criterion has not been satisfied.
9. The mobile device of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprise:
in response to determining that the second parent object has been updated to a third parent object in the parent tumbler, deleting the second set of second child objects from the child tumbler.
10. The mobile device of claim 1 , wherein the cross-platform messaging application utilizes disparate messaging protocols to facilitate the transmission.
11. A method, comprising:
based on a selection of a first parent object displayed within a parent tumbler of a hierarchical presentation, populating, by a mobile device comprising a processor, a child tumbler of the hierarchical presentation with a first set of first child objects;
in response to determining that the first parent object has been changed to a second parent object in the parent tumbler and based on metadata associated with a first child object that is determined to be selected from the first set of first child objects, repopulating, by the mobile device, the child tumbler with a second set of second child objects;
facilitating, by the mobile device, an alignment of the second parent object and a second child object that is determined to be selected from the second set of second child objects along a common axis; and
in response to determining that information representing an association between the second parent object and the second child object satisfies a validity criterion, facilitating, by the mobile device, a transmission of the second child object via disparate messaging protocols.
12. The method of claim 11 , further comprising:
organizing, by the mobile device, the second set of second child objects based on classification data associated with the second set of second child objects.
13. The method of claim 11 , further comprising:
organizing, by the mobile device, the second set of second child objects based on timing data associated with the second set of second child objects.
14. The method of claim 11 , further comprising:
organizing, by the mobile device, the second set of second child objects based on size data associated with the second set of second child objects.
15. The method of claim 11 , further comprising:
inserting, by the mobile device, the second child object into a text message determined by a cross-platform messaging application of the mobile device.
16. The method of claim 11 , further comprising:
in response to determining that the information does not satisfy the validity criterion, facilitating, by the mobile device, a rendering of notification data that indicates that the validity criterion has not been satisfied.
17. A computer-readable storage device comprising executable instructions that, in response to execution, cause a mobile device comprising a processor, to perform operations, comprising:
based a first parent object being selected from parent objects within a parent tumbler of a hierarchical presentation, populating a child tumbler of the hierarchical presentation with a first set of first child objects;
receiving input data that selects a first child object from the first set of first child objects;
in response to determining that the first parent object has been updated to a second parent object of the parent objects and based on metadata associated with the first child object, populating the child tumbler with a second set of second child objects;
facilitating a display of the second parent object and a second child object that is determined to be selected from the second set of second child objects along a common axis; and
in response to determining that information representing a relationship between the second parent object and the second child object satisfies a validity criterion, facilitating a transmission of the second child object via a cross-platform messaging application of the mobile device.
18. The computer-readable storage device of claim 17 , wherein the second child object represents a protocol.
19. The computer-readable storage device of claim 17 , wherein the operations further comprise:
based on historical data, highlighting a subset of the second set of second child objects.
20. The computer-readable storage device of claim 17 , wherein the facilitating the transmission comprises facilitating the transmission via disparate messaging protocols.
