Systems and methods for sharing electronic assets. A first device can present a boundary across which an electronic asset can be passed. When user input moves an electronic asset partially across the boundary, the first device displays the electronic asset in a way that indicates that it is being shared and the first device provides information that allows the electronic asset to be displayed on a second device in a manner indicating that it is being shared. For example, a portion of the electronic asset crossing the first device boundary may not be displayed on the first device but may be displayed on the second device, for example, adjacent to a corresponding boundary. As an electronic asset is moved across the first boundary on the first device, the portion of the electronic asset passing into the boundary appears to emerge from the corresponding boundary on the second device.
