user 102D has already been requested by another user editing the same content as user 102A . In this way, user 102A is aware that other people are requesting attention for this content and/or this section. 

[0058] Once the get attention feature 206 is activated, the client computing device 104A can send the request to the server computer 112 and/or the other client computing devices of those users which the user 102A wants to view the content. FIG. 3A illustrates a user interface 300 that displays a user interface element 302 generated by the server computer 112 and/or client computing device 104C to notify user 102C that she or he is a user that has been requested to view the content being edited by user 102A (e.g., provide attention to the content being edited by user 102A). 

[0059] The user interface element 302 is displayed while user 102C is editing her or his own content 106C on the digital canvas (e.g., a table with a lamp). As shown, the user interface element 302 is graphically, and visually, associated with the representation of user 102A or (“UA”). This association reveals to user 102C that user 102A is the user requesting attention (not user 102B or user 102D). 

[0060] FIG. 3B illustrates another user interface 304 that displays a user interface element 306 generated by the server computer 112 and/or client computing device 104C to notify user 102C that she or he is a user that has been requested to view the content being edited by user 102A. In this example, the graphical representation of user 102A (“UA”) is altered in a way so as to indicate, to user 102C, that user 102A is requesting attention, and the altered graphical representation comprises the user interface element 306. In the example shown, an “attentionrequested”icon (e.g., an icon of a raised hand) is displayed as a partially transparent overlay on the graphical representation to indicate that attention is requested. In other examples, the graphical representation can flash, change colors, scale to a larger or smaller size, etc. 

[0061] In FIG. 3B, the graphical representations of the users are positioned to reflect a layout location of currently displayed content 106C contained in a currently displayed section relative to a layout location of content being edited by the represented user in another section, as described above with respect to FIG. 1C. 

[0062] FIG. 4 illustrates an example user interface 400 that is displayed after user 102C selects one of the user interface elements 302, 306 in FIGS. 3A and 3B. Accordingly, the view of the digital canvas for user 102C is switched from the currently displayed content 106C in FIGS. 3A and 3B (e.g., the table and the lamp being edited by user 102C) to the content 106A for which the view request was sent (e.g., a chair and the written questions
