Digital processing systems and methods for variable hang-time for social layer messages in collaborative work systems
Systems, methods, and computer-readable media that automatically vary hang-time of pop-up messages, to enable presentation of a shared work environment on a plurality of client devices and cause a presentation of a plurality of visual indicators on a fraction of a display of the shared work environment, wherein each visual indicator represents differing clients associated with the plurality of client devices. The embodiments may further enable at least one group chat between the plurality of client devices, wherein communications are presented in pop-up windows appearing adjacent corresponding visual indicators, and wherein the pop-up windows remain on the display for differing durations depending on variables including at least one of length of message, number of concurrently displayed messages, a client defined threshold, or a sender status.
1. A communications system that automatically varies hang-time of pop-up messages, the system comprising:
at least one processor configured to:
enable presentation of a shared work environment on a plurality of client devices;
cause a presentation of a plurality of visual indicators on a fraction of a display of the shared work environment, wherein each visual indicator represents differing clients associated with the plurality of client devices;
enable at least one group chat between the plurality of client devices, wherein communications are presented in pop-up windows appearing adjacent corresponding visual indicators of senders, wherein the locations of the messages vary based on locations of the visual indicators, and wherein the messages have variable hang times; and;
enable the pop-up windows to remain on the display for differing durations depending on variables including at least one of number of concurrently displayed messages, or a sender priority over users.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to save a pop-up message for later review on a particular client device when a client associated with the particular client device selects the message.
3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the fraction of the display includes a bar on an edge of the display.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the visual indicator is at least one of a thumbnail photo, an icon, or alphanumeric characters.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to compare each message to a message length threshold and to increase message hang-time when the message length threshold is surpassed.
6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the client defined threshold is selectable by a client.
7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the client defined threshold is selectable by an administrator.
8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to alter a combination of the plurality of client devices in the at least one group chat.
9. A non-transitory computer readable medium containing instructions that when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform operations for automatically varying hang-time of pop-up messages, the operations comprising:
enabling presentation of a shared work environment on a plurality of client devices;
causing a presentation of a plurality of visual indicators on a fraction of a display of the shared work environment, wherein each visual indicator represents differing clients associated with the plurality of client devices;
enabling at least one group chat between the plurality of client devices, wherein communications are presented in pop-up windows appearing adjacent corresponding visual indicators of senders, wherein the locations of the messages vary based on locations of the visual indicators, and wherein the messages have variable hang times; and;
enabling the pop-up windows to remain on the display for differing durations depending on variables including at least one of number of concurrently displayed messages, or a sender priority over users.
10. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 9 , wherein the operations further comprise saving a pop-up message for later review on a particular client device when a client associated with the particular client device selects the message.
11. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 9 , wherein the fraction of the display includes a bar on an edge of the display.
12. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 9 , wherein the visual indicator is at least one of a thumbnail photo, an icon, or alphanumeric characters.
13. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 9 , wherein the operations further comprise comparing each message to a message length threshold and to increase message hang-time when the message length threshold is surpassed.
14. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 9 , wherein the client defined threshold is selectable by a client.
15. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 9 , wherein the client defined threshold is selectable by an administrator.
16. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 9 , wherein the operations further comprise altering a combination of the plurality of client devices in the at least one group chat.
17. A method for automatically varying hang-time of pop-up messages, the method comprising:
enabling presentation of a shared work environment on a plurality of client devices;
causing a presentation of a plurality of visual indicators on a fraction of a display of the shared work environment, wherein each visual indicator represents differing clients associated with the plurality of client devices;
enabling at least one group chat between the plurality of client devices, wherein communications are presented in pop-up windows appearing adjacent corresponding visual indicators of senders, wherein the locations of the messages vary based on locations of the visual indicators, and wherein the messages have variable hang times; and;
enabling the pop-up windows to remain on the display for differing durations depending on variables including at least one of number of concurrently displayed messages, or a sender priority over users.
18. The method of claim 17 , further comprising saving a pop-up message for later review on a particular client device when a client associated with the particular client device selects the message.
19. The method of claim 17 , further comprising comparing each message to a message length threshold and to increase message hang-time when the message length threshold is surpassed.
20. The method of claim 17 , further comprising altering a combination of the plurality of client devices in the at least one group chat.
