    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system for hiding conversation elements. The system accesses a conversation interface of a messaging application on a web browser and presents the conversation interface in a window associated with the web browser. The conversation interface comprises a plurality of conversation elements. The system accesses a focus status of the window and, in response to determining that the focus status indicates that the window has lost focus, obscures a first subset of the plurality of conversation elements.

    Abstract: An interaction system that provides users in mutual affinity relationships to send messages. Interaction applications of two or more users receives notifications of a mutual affinity relationship between the first user and the second user. The interaction applications configure respective mutual affinity widgets by associating the mutual affinity widget with the respective other user. Icons of the mutual affinity widgets are provided on respective home screens of the users. Upon detecting a selection of the mutual affinity widget by a first user, a message creation interface is provided to the first user and a message is generated based on an image captured by the first user using the message creation user interface. The message is then sent to a second user. The second user uses their own mutual affinity widget to access the message.

    Abstract: A user interface comprising a message composition area is presented at a user device. Commencement of a resizing gesture is detected. A location of the resizing gesture within the user interface is tracked while the resizing gesture is in progress. The location of the resizing gesture is adjustable to cause resizing of message content in the message composition area. Responsive to detecting ending of the resizing gesture, a size of the message content is checked. Transmission of the message content to a recipient is based on a size of the message content relative to a base size.

    Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for performing operations for generating a custom sticker. The operations include receiving, by a messaging application implemented on a first device, an image. The operations include receiving, by the messaging application, input that selects a region of the image. The operations include generating, by the messaging application, a graphical element comprising the region of the image selected by the input. The operations include applying, by the messaging application, one or more visual effects to the graphical element. The operations include causing the graphical element to be animated according to a given animation pattern selected from a plurality of animation patterns to generate an animated custom graphic. The operations include sending the animated custom graphic with the one or more visual effects from the first device to a second device.

    Abstract: The subject technology detects a first gesture and a second gesture, each gesture corresponding to an open trigger finger gesture. The subject technology detects a third gesture and a fourth gesture, each gesture corresponding to a closed trigger finger gesture. The subject technology, selects a first virtual object in a first scene. The subject technology detects a first location and a first position of a first representation of a first finger from the third gesture and a second location and a second position of a second representation of a second finger from the fourth gesture. The subject technology detects a first change in the first location and the first position and a second change in the second location and the second position. The subject technology modifies a set of dimensions of the first virtual object to a different set of dimensions.

    Abstract: The subject technology receives a set of frames. The subject technology detect a first gesture correspond to an open trigger finger gesture. The subject technology receives a second set of frames. The subject technology detects from the second set of frames, a second gesture correspond to a closed trigger finger gesture. The subject technology detects a location and a position of a representation of a finger from the closed trigger finger gesture. The subject technology generates a first virtual object based at least in part on the location and the position of the representation of the finger. The subject technology renders a movement of the first virtual object along a vector away from the location and the position of the representation of the finger within a first scene. The subject technology provides for display the rendered movement of the first virtual object along the vector within the first scene.
