Abstract

Generating a tag layout from a set of tags and an ordering of the set of tags, wherein each tag includes a text label and a size for the text label, is disclosed. The method further includes receiving at least one closed shape corresponding to a space for the tag layout. A processor computes a scale factor for at least one of the closed shape or the size of the text labels in the set of tags to generate the tag layout of the set of tags within the closed shape such that all the tags in the set of tags fit within the closed shape and the tags are placed in the space based at least upon the ordering of the tags in the set of tags.
