Existing display devices are typically configured with intelligent software systems that are utilized to implement a variety of functions and applications to provide rich content services to users. However, since the functions and the application programs of the intelligent software system are displayed in the category of "all applications", the user wants to start a certain function or a certain application program, which is inconvenient to find, has a lot of operation steps, and brings a certain trouble to the user operation, especially for the elderly and the like, without knowing the user population of the intelligent software system.

The display device 200 is typically equipped with a control means 100, e.g. a remote control, on which the number of keys provided is very limited, which the user cannot activate by simply operating the keys on the remote control for which he is interested or for which he is interested. In order to enable a user to quickly and conveniently find a function or an application program wanted by the user, the display device 200 provided by the embodiment of the invention performs user-defined function interaction setting on keys on a remote controller, namely, after the control keys 101 are configured on the control device (remote controller) 100 and the user-defined setting is performed on the control keys 101, the control keys can be bound with the function or the application program which is most frequently started by the user each time the display device is used, so that the user can start the bound function or application program by one key when the control keys are triggered.

A block diagram of a display device according to an embodiment is exemplarily shown in fig. 6. Referring to fig. 6, a display device 200 provided in an embodiment of the present invention includes a controller 250 and a display 275, the display 250 is configured to display a user interface, the controller 250 is connected to the display 275 and the control apparatus 100, respectively, a favorite list is configured in the controller 250, application icons for implementing all functions are displayed in the favorite list, and the application icons of all functions include icons of each function and icons of each application program.

Each function and each application program in the intelligent software system configured in the display device are displayed in a favorite list, which is pre-generated by the controller. Each function and each application program in the favorite list are displayed in an ordered mode according to a default arrangement rule, wherein the default arrangement rule is as follows: (1) Functions (games, parent circles, rotations, educational modes, etc.) configured in the controller but without operating keys on the remote controller; (2) presetting an application program; (3) a third party application; (4) channels; (5) a homepage; (6) a signal source.

In order to realize the function or application program of the control key for starting binding by one key, the favorite list is subjected to self-defining setting, so that a certain function or certain application program in the favorite list and the control key establish a binding mapping relation, and further the control key on the control device can control the favorite list in a short-press and long-press control mode.

For example, a short press remote control controls the key scene: in a default state, namely when the control keys and the favorite list are not subjected to user-defined setting, when a user presses the control keys on the remote controller for a short time, the favorite list is called out by the system, and all the preset applications and functions of the system are displayed. Long-press remote controller control key scene: in a default state, namely when the control keys and the favorite list are not subjected to user-defined setting, when a user presses the control keys on the remote controller for a long time, the system executes the action of pressing the control keys together with the control keys for a short time, and the system calls out the preset default favorite list. If the user presses the control key on the remote controller for a short time after the control key is set in a self-defined manner, starting a bound function or application program by one key; if the user presses the control key on the remote controller for a long time, calling out the favorite list after the user-defined setting. After the favorite list is called out, the favorite list is displayed in the user interface.

Therefore, the display device provided by the embodiment of the invention supports the user to start the favorite application by pressing one key for a short time or call out the favorite list by pressing the control key on the remote controller for a long time through the interaction design of the control key on the self-defined remote controller by pressing the control key for a short time and pressing the control key for a long time, so that the user can search quickly and conveniently, and the operation is simple and convenient. In addition, the favorite list also supports sorting operation on the realized functions or application icons, effectively improves the operation efficiency and the user experience effect, and also effectively solves the problem that the old user cannot find the functions and the application.

Specifically, in order to perform custom setting on a control key and sorting operation of icons of each function and application program, the embodiment of the invention provides a display device, when the control key is started for the first time, a controller is configured to:

and step 01, when the control instruction is the first received instruction, presenting a guide page displaying a guide key in a user interface, wherein the guide page is used for prompting an operation process of carrying out user-defined setting on the control key.

After the user normally starts the intelligent software system, i.e. turns on the display device, the user can start a control key in a setup menu configured in the controller, or in any scenario, by short pressing the control key 101 on the control device (remote control) 100. After the display device is opened, a system homepage is displayed in a user interface of the display, a setting menu is displayed in the system homepage, a control inlet for calling up a favorite list is arranged in the setting menu, and a user triggers the control inlet through a remote controller to call up and display the favorite list in the user interface. Alternatively, the user may directly call up the favorites list by pressing the control button 101 on the remote control 100 directly.

When the control key 101 is set in a user-defined manner, since the user operates the control key for the first time, in order to prompt the user about the operation step of the user-defined setting of the control key, when the user triggers the control key or the control entry, a start control instruction is generated. The controller responds to the starting control instruction, and presents a guide page in the user interface after judging that the instruction is the first received instruction for carrying out self-defining setting on the control keys.

A display schematic of a bootstrap page in accordance with an embodiment is illustrated in fig. 7. In some embodiments, when the control key 101 is first activated, the user interface enters a function guide page, and shows an interactive operation mode in which the user performs user-defined setting on the control key. The guide page is displayed with a guide key, which can be the next step.

And step 02, responding to a guiding operation instruction generated when the guiding key is triggered, and presenting a guiding operation process for carrying out user-defined setting on the control key in a user interface.

After the guide page is displayed in the user interface, the default control focus is located on the guide key in the guide page. The user triggers the guide key through the confirmation key in the remote controller to generate a guide operation instruction, the controller responds to the guide operation instruction to enable the currently displayed guide page to jump to the next guide page, and the like until all the guide pages in the guide operation process are displayed.

The guiding content presented on each guiding page is different, and the guiding content on all guiding pages is combined together, namely, the guiding operation process of carrying out the self-defining setting on the control key 101. For example, as shown in fig. 7, the controller displays a first page guide page on which a display image of guide content and favorite list is displayed in response to a start control instruction. The icon selected for custom setting is a function icon, such as a "rotate" function. The guiding content can be that the functions can be ordered by pressing an upward key of a remote controller, or can be set as a one-key starting mode for quick test bar; the virtual control focus is displayed on the icon of the "rotate" function in the display image of the favorite list, and the up key icon "+") is displayed on the icon. A guidance key "next" is displayed under the guidance content.

The control focus is positioned on the guide key, and the user clicks the guide key to turn pages through a 'confirmation key' on the remote controller, so that the guide pages jump to second page guide pages, and the second page guide pages are used for guiding the position ordering operation of each application icon in the favorite list. The second page guide page is different from the first page guide page in that the guide content of the second page guide page can be "the function can be moved and ordered by pressing left and right keys of the remote controller", and meanwhile, the icon of the function virtually selected in the display image of the favorite list is switched and displayed to be a one-key start icon. To indicate the direction of movement of the selected application icon, "left icon <" > and "right icon >" are displayed to the left of the selected application icon (e.g., rotated).

The user clicks the guide key on the second page guide page again through the 'confirm key' on the remote controller, so that the guide page jumps to a third page guide page, and the third page guide page is used for guiding to be set as a one-key starting function. The third page of the guide page is different from the foregoing guide page in that the guide content of the third page of the guide page may be "pressing the remote controller confirm key may set the function to one-key start", while selecting the left icon and the right icon on both sides of the application icon to cancel the display.

The user clicks the guide key on the third page guide page again through the 'confirmation key' on the remote controller, so that the guide page jumps to a fourth page guide page, and the fourth page guide page is used for prompting the operation method of the control key. The fourth page of guide page is different from the above-mentioned guide page in that the guide content of the fourth page of guide page can be "after being set as a key start, the function is started immediately by pressing the control key of the remote controller for a short time, and the control key of the remote controller is pressed for a long time to enter the favorite list"; and switching from displaying the guide key to displaying the end guide key under the guide content, such as "i know", and displaying a favorite icon, such as a "star" icon, on the selected application icon.

In some embodiments, the guiding page may be displayed according to the display content of the four pages set forth above, and in other embodiments, the content of the guiding page may be set according to the actual application, which is not limited herein specifically. All the content corresponding to each guide page displayed in the user interface is the guide operation process of carrying out user-defined setting on the control keys.

And step 03, displaying an end guide key on the guide page after the display of the guide operation process set by the user is finished.

And after all the guide pages displayed in the user interface and used for prompting the user-defined setting of the control keys are displayed, displaying the guide key ending on the last guide page. The end guide key may be in the form of "i know".

When the user interface displays the guiding operation process, the control focus is always positioned on the guiding key and the guiding key, after the guiding process is finished, the user clicks the guiding key to finish the guiding operation process through the confirmation key on the remote controller, and then the guiding operation process can be finished.

And step 04, in response to a guide ending instruction generated when the guide button is triggered, canceling the display of the guide page and presenting a favorite list in the user interface.

The user can generate a guide ending instruction when triggering the guide ending key, and after receiving the guide ending instruction, the controller can exit the display of the guide page, so that the display device enters a conventional menu state, namely, the controller responds to a starting control instruction generated by the user triggering control key to present a favorite list in the user interface.

After the user calls out the favorite list through the control key and displays the favorite list in the user interface, the user can perform self-defined setting on the control key according to the guiding operation process of the guiding page, namely, a mapping relation between the control key and a certain function or an application program in the favorite list is established, so that the function or the application program bound by short-pressing the control key by one key is realized.

A flowchart of a custom setting method for control keys according to an embodiment is exemplarily shown in fig. 8. Referring to fig. 8, in the display device provided by the embodiment of the present invention, when a control key is set in a user-defined manner, a controller configured by the display device is configured to perform the following method:

s11, receiving a starting control instruction generated when the control key is triggered.

And S12, responding to the starting control instruction, presenting a favorite list in a user interface, and displaying a custom setting icon on one of application icons of the favorite list, wherein the custom setting icon is used for prompting various custom setting operations.

The user then generates a start control command when the control key 101 on the control device (remote control) 100 is activated. The start control command is used to implement the operation of the control key on the favorites list, and in some embodiments, by performing custom setting on the control key, a certain function or application in the favorites list is started by one key.

In order to facilitate the user-defined setting of the control keys, the controller responds to the start control instruction to display a favorite list in the user interface. When the control key is used for starting a certain function or application program in the favorite list by one key, a custom setting icon is required to be displayed on a certain application icon in the favorite list, and the application icon comprises a function icon and an application program icon.

The custom setting icon can identify that a certain application icon in the favorites list is edited, that is, various custom setting operations, such as "set one-key start" or "position ordering", are prompted to be performed on the application icon.

Since icons of a plurality of functions and a plurality of applications are included in the favorites list, the control key can establish a binding relationship with any one of them. Therefore, the user can select any application icon in the favorite list through the remote controller to be used as the most commonly used application, and the user needs to display a custom setting icon on the corresponding application icon every time the user selects one application icon so as to edit the selected application icon.

A flowchart of a method for displaying custom setup icons according to an embodiment is illustrated in fig. 9. Specifically, to enable the user to display the custom setting icon on one of the application icons each time the user picks the application icon, referring to fig. 9, the controller is further configured to, upon executing the control instruction in response to the start, display the custom setting icon on one of the application icons of the favorites list:

s121, responding to a starting control instruction, and acquiring a first application icon displayed in the favorites list.

S122, displaying a control focus and a custom setting icon on the first application icon.

To make clear which application icon the current user is operating on, a control focus needs to be displayed on the selected application icon. In some embodiments, the controller controls the focus to be displayed on the first item of the favorites list, i.e., the first application icon, by default after presenting the favorites list on the user interface in response to the launch control instruction. Thus, the controller can display the control focus on the first application icon after the favorite list is called up.

In order to facilitate editing the application icon, a custom setting icon is also displayed on the application icon. In some embodiments, the custom settings icon may be an edit icon, such as the page of FIG. 7 that presents a favorites list, with the first application icon being "parent circle", and then displaying the edit icon on the icon of "parent circle", up-key ". Times..

S123, when a user selects one of the application icons in the favorites list through the trigger control device to perform user-defined setting, a movement control instruction is generated.

And if the first application icon of the favorite list is not the target application icon to be selected by the user, the user can select the application icon which is most used by the user on the favorite list by triggering left and right keys on the remote controller.

In the process that the user selects the application icon which is most commonly used in the favorite list, each time the left key or the right key is triggered, a movement control instruction is generated, and the movement control instruction is used for realizing the movement of the control focus and can indicate the movement direction of the control focus.

And S124, responding to the movement control instruction, indicating the control focus to move on any application icon in the favorite list, enabling the custom setting icon to follow the movement of the control focus, and displaying the custom setting icon on the application icon where the control focus is located.

After receiving a movement control instruction generated by a left/right key on the user-triggered control device, the controller instructs the control focus to correspondingly move according to the movement direction indicated by the movement control instruction, and meanwhile, the custom setting icon is also displayed on the application icon where the control focus is located after the movement along with the movement of the control focus.

For example, if the user activates the right button on the control device once, the "parent circle" icon jumps to the "rotate" icon, at which point a movement control command is generated and the direction of movement indicated by the movement control command is to the right. Thus, the control focus moves once to the right, and is displayed on the "rotate" icon; meanwhile, the custom settings icon is also displayed on the "rotate" icon.

For another example, if the user continuously triggers the right button on the control device twice, the user jumps from the "parent circle" icon to the "family album" icon, at this time, two movement control instructions are generated, and the movement directions indicated by the two movement control instructions are all rightward. Therefore, the control focus moves rightwards twice, is displayed on the 'rotating' icon first and then is displayed on the 'family album' icon last; meanwhile, the custom setting icon is also displayed on the 'rotation' icon first, and then displayed on the 'family album' icon last.

Because the favorite list comprises a plurality of application icons, and the display width of the display is limited, all the application icons in the favorite list cannot be displayed at the same time, after the favorite list is presented on a user interface, the application icons in the first few digits of the digit list are preferentially displayed, and the application icons in the rear digits of the favorite list are hidden.

To facilitate user manipulation of the favorites list, a direction indication icon is displayed on the favorites list to identify where and in which direction the current control focus is located and in which direction the favorites list is movable. Specifically, the controller, upon executing the control focus moving on any one of the application icons in the favorites list in response to the movement control instruction, is further configured to:

in step 1241, when the control focus is indicated to be located on the first application icon in response to the start control instruction, a rightward direction indication icon is displayed on the right side of the favorites list.

Step 1242, when the control focus is indicated to be on any application icon in the middle position of the favorite list in response to the movement control instruction, a leftward direction indication icon is displayed on the left side of the favorite list, and a rightward direction indication icon is displayed on the right side of the favorite list.

Step 1243, when the control focus is indicated to be located on the last application icon of the favorites list in response to the movement control instruction, displays a leftward direction indication icon on the left side of the favorites list.

The user triggers the control key to generate a start control instruction, the start control instruction is called up to be presented in the favorite list of the user interface, the application icons which can be seen are icons positioned at the first few digits of the favorite list, the control focus is positioned on the first application icon, and other application icons positioned on the right side of the control focus are hidden, so that an indication icon such as a ">" icon is displayed on the right side of the favorite list, and the page entering the favorite list is shown in fig. 7.

When the user activates the left/right key on the control device such that the control focus moves over the favorites list, there are application icons on both the left and right sides of the current control focus, and if the control focus moves near the middle position of the favorites list, there may be application icons hidden on both the left and right sides of the favorites list. Therefore, at this time, the direction indication icons are displayed on both the left and right sides of the favorite list, i.e., the left direction indication icon, such as the "<" icon, is displayed on the left side of the favorite list, and the right direction indication icon, such as the ">" icon, is displayed on the right side of the favorite list.

When the user triggers the left and right keys on the control device to enable the control focus to move to the rightmost side of the favorite list and to be positioned on the last application icon, the application icon which is hidden exists on the left side of the control focus. Accordingly, a left direction indication icon, such as a "<" icon, is displayed on the left side of the favorites list.

Displaying a direction indication icon on the favorite list in a manner of adaptively controlling the movement of the focus on the favorite list to identify the position and the movable direction of the current control focus, namely if only a rightward indication icon exists on the favorite list, indicating that the control focus is positioned on a first application icon of the favorite list and can move to the right; if the right indication icon and the left indication icon exist on the favorite list at the same time, the description control focus is positioned at the middle position of the favorite list and can move to the right or the left; if only the left indication icon exists on the favorite list, the description control focus is positioned on the last application icon of the favorite list and can move to the left.

And S13, establishing a mapping relation between a target application icon where the custom setting icon is located and the control key in response to a custom setting instruction generated when the custom setting icon is triggered, wherein the mapping relation is used for starting an application corresponding to the target application icon when the control key is triggered.

When the user triggers the control device to select one of the commonly used functions or application programs in the favorite list, the user-defined setting icons are simultaneously displayed on the application icons where the control focus is located. If the user selects the target application icon, triggering the custom setting icon through the control device to perform custom setting on the target application icon, namely establishing a mapping relation between the target application icon and the control key.

The control keys are bound with the target application icons, so that when a subsequent user operates the display device, the user triggers the control keys once, and can directly start the application programs or functions corresponding to the target application icons by one key, so that the user can quickly and conveniently find the commonly used functions or application programs, the function and application program searching efficiency and the operation convenience are improved, and the user experience effect is effectively improved.

When the control key is subjected to the operation of self-defining setting, the editing function of the target application program is required to be triggered, and then the setting operation of the one-key starting function is performed. The editing icon is used for realizing the function of starting the editing function of the target application icon, and the one-key starting icon is used for realizing the establishment of a mapping relation between the target application icon and the control key.

The user generates an editing instruction when triggering the editing icon, and generates a one-key starting setting instruction when triggering the one-key starting icon. Therefore, the custom setting instruction generated by the controller in response to triggering the custom setting icon is specifically: the controller responds to the editing instruction generated when the editing icon is triggered, and the controller responds to the one-key starting setting instruction generated when the one-key starting icon is triggered.

FIG. 10 is a flow chart illustrating a method for mapping a target application icon to a control key according to an embodiment; fig. 11 is a schematic diagram schematically illustrating a mapping relationship between a target application icon and a control key according to an embodiment. Specifically, referring to fig. 10 and 11, when executing step S13, that is, when establishing a mapping relationship between a target application icon where the custom setting icon is located and a control key in response to a custom setting instruction generated when triggering the custom setting icon, the controller is further configured to execute the following steps:

s131, receiving an editing instruction generated when the editing icon displayed on the target application icon is triggered.

After the user selects the target application icon in the favorite list, the control focus is positioned on the target application icon, and the editing icon is displayed on the target application icon so as to prompt more setting operations. In some embodiments, the edit icon may be an up key "≡.. As in fig. 11 (a), the target application icon is "rotation", and an up key "ζ" is displayed on the "rotation" icon.

The user triggers the 'key-up' of the control device, triggers the editing icon and generates the editing instruction.

And S132, responding to the editing instruction, and switching the editing icon displayed on the target application icon to display a one-key starting icon.

And after receiving an editing instruction generated by triggering of a user, the controller immediately edits the icon to cancel display, and simultaneously displays a one-key starting icon. The editing icon is replaced by the one-key start icon and displayed on the target application icon to prompt that the one-key start function setting can be performed on the target application icon later. As in fig. 11 (b), a one-key start icon "set to one-key start" is displayed above the target application icon "rotate".

S133, receiving a one-key start setting instruction generated when the one-key start icon is triggered.

S134, in response to a one-key starting setting instruction, a mapping relation between a target application icon where the one-key starting icon is located and the control key is established.

When the user triggers the editing icon, the control focus is always positioned on the target application icon, and after the editing icon is triggered, the displayed one-key starting icon is switched to be displayed on the upper layer of the target application icon. In order to trigger the one-key start icon, a user is required to trigger the upper key of the control device, and the control focus on the target application icon is moved upwards to the one-key start icon, namely the one-key start icon obtains the control focus.

After the one-key starting icon obtains the control focus, a user triggers a confirmation key on the control device to realize clicking of the one-key starting icon, triggers the one-key starting icon and simultaneously generates a one-key starting setting instruction.

After receiving the one-key starting setting instruction, the controller indicates that the control key needs to establish a binding relation with the target application icon, namely, establishes a mapping relation between the target application icon where the one-key starting icon is located and the control key.

After the mapping relation between the target application icon and the control key is established, a favorite icon is displayed on the target application icon, and the favorite icon is used for prompting the user-defined setting that the target application corresponding to the target application icon is started by one key. Displaying a favorite icon, such as the "star icon" in fig. 11 (c), on the target application icon can prompt the user that the application icon has been customized as a one-touch start function, avoiding that the user re-selects the application icon when re-customizing the settings, resulting in an invalid setting operation.

The one-key start function is set for the target application icon, and the one-key start function can be set for the target application icon in a canceled manner. To this end, after setting the one-touch-up function on the target application image, the controller is further configured to: in response to the one-key start setting instruction, the one-key start icon displayed on the target application icon is switched to display a cancel one-key start icon, as "cancel one-key start" shown in fig. 11 (c). And responding to a cancel one-key starting instruction generated when the cancel one-key starting icon is triggered, and cutting off the mapping relation between the target application icon and the control key.

After the controller responds to a one-key starting setting instruction triggered by a user, the controller also cancels the display of the one-key starting icon on the target application icon while establishing the mapping relation between the target application icon and the control key, and the one-key starting canceling icon is displayed on the target application icon and used for canceling the setting of the one-key starting function of the target application icon, namely canceling the mapping relation established between the target application icon and the control key.

If the user wants to cancel the setting of the one-key start function of the target application icon, the user triggers the upper key of the control device, and moves the control focus on the target application icon upwards to the one-key start icon, namely the one-key start icon is cancelled to obtain the control focus.

After the one-key starting icon is cancelled to obtain the control focus, a user triggers a confirmation key on the control device to realize clicking of the one-key starting icon, triggers the one-key starting icon to be cancelled, and simultaneously generates a one-key starting cancellation instruction. After receiving the command for canceling the one-key start, the controller indicates that the control key needs to be in a binding relation with the target application icon, namely, cuts off the mapping relation between the target application icon where the canceling one-key start icon is located and the control key. After the target application icon cancels the one-key start function, the favorite icon displayed on the target application icon disappears.

In order to facilitate the accurate and rapid starting of the target application icon when the control key on the control device is triggered, the situation that a plurality of application icons respond to a starting control instruction generated by triggering the control key and are disordered is avoided, in some embodiments, only one application icon can exist in the favorite list to set a one-key starting function, namely, only one application icon which is set up by user definition each time and has a mapping relation with the control key can be used, and the mapping relation between the control key and the plurality of application icons cannot be built simultaneously.

A flowchart of a method for re-customizing control keys according to an embodiment is illustrated in fig. 12. If the user wants to select another new application icon to establish a mapping relationship with the control key, referring to fig. 12, in the display device provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the controller is further configured to:

s141, receiving a new editing instruction generated when the editing icon on the new application icon is triggered.

After the user sets a one-key starting function on the target application icon and establishes a mapping relation with the control key, if the user wants to replace the application icon establishing the mapping relation with the control key, the left and right keys on the control device can be triggered, and the user can select the new application icon wanted by the user again on the favorite list.

When the user selects other application icons in the favorites list, the control focus can correspondingly move along with the left key or the right key triggered by the user. If the user selects a new application icon, at this point, the control focus is on the new application icon and an edit icon is displayed on the new application icon.

The user triggers the up key of the control device, triggers the editing icon on the new application icon, and then generates a new editing instruction.

S142, responding to the new editing instruction, and switching the editing icon displayed on the new application icon to display a one-key starting icon.

And after receiving a new editing instruction generated by triggering an editing icon on the new application icon by the user, the controller immediately edits the icon to cancel display and simultaneously displays a one-key starting icon. The edit icon is replaced by a one-key-start icon and displayed on the new application icon to prompt that the new application icon can be subsequently set with one-key-start function.

S143, receiving a new one-key starting setting instruction generated when a one-key starting icon displayed on the new application icon is triggered.

S144, responding to the new one-key starting setting instruction, establishing a mapping relation between the new application icon where the one-key starting icon is positioned and the control key, and cutting off the mapping relation between the target application icon and the control key.

When the user triggers the editing icon, the control focus is always positioned on the new application icon, and after the editing icon is triggered, the displayed one-key starting icon is switched to be displayed on the upper layer of the new application icon. In order to trigger the one-key start icon, a user is required to trigger the upper key of the control device, and the control focus on the new application icon is moved upwards to the one-key start icon, namely the one-key start icon obtains the control focus.

After the one-key starting icon obtains the control focus, the user triggers a confirmation key on the control device to click the one-key starting icon on the new application icon, triggers the one-key starting icon and simultaneously generates a new one-key starting setting instruction. After receiving the new one-key starting setting instruction, the controller indicates that the control key needs to establish a binding relation with the new application icon, namely, establishes a mapping relation between the new application icon where the one-key starting icon is located and the control key.

At this time, since the control key has established a mapping relationship with the target application icon, if the control key selects to establish a mapping relationship with the new application icon, the mapping relationship between the control key and the target application icon is cut off, the application icon currently establishing a binding relationship with the control key replaces the target application icon with the new application icon, and meanwhile, the favorite icon displayed on the target application icon is cancelled, and the favorite icon is displayed on the new application icon.

In order to facilitate the user to quickly select the most commonly used function or application program, not only the scheme of setting a one-key starting function on the target application icon and establishing a mapping relation with the control key provided by the foregoing embodiment, but also in other embodiments, the application icons displayed on the favorite list may be ordered, so that the commonly used application icons of the user are displayed in the first few digits of the favorite list, so that when the user selects the function or application icon to be started through the left and right keys on the control device, the number of times of triggering the left and right keys on the control device can be reduced, the searching efficiency and the operation convenience of the function and the application program can be improved, and the user experience effect can be effectively improved.

A schematic diagram of the positional ordering of application icons in a favorites list according to an embodiment is illustrated in fig. 13. Specifically, referring to fig. 13, after executing step S132, that is, after switching the edit icon displayed on the target application icon to display the one-touch start icon in response to the edit instruction, the controller is further configured to;

and 151, when a user selects one of the application icons in the favorites list through the trigger control device to perform user-defined setting, displaying a control focus and a moving direction indication icon on the selected target application icon, and generating a sequencing control instruction, wherein the sequencing control instruction is used for indicating the moving direction of the application icon.

In step 152, in response to the sorting control instruction, the target application icon is instructed to move in accordance with the moving direction indicated by the sorting control instruction, and the focus is controlled to move along with the movement of the target application icon.

When the controller calls up the favorite list and displays the favorite list on the user interface, the control focus is positioned on the first application icon, and the editing icon is displayed on the application icon, as shown in fig. 13 (a), the first application icon is "parent circle" and the editing icon is displayed above the "parent circle" icon. After the user selects the most commonly used target application icon in the favorite list by triggering the left and right keys on the control device, the target application icon obtains the control focus and displays the editing icon, and as shown in fig. 13 (b), the target application icon is "rotation", and the editing icon is "up key" displayed above the "rotation" icon.

The user triggers the upper key of the control device to trigger the editing icon on the target application icon to edit the target application icon, and meanwhile, the editing icon is switched and displayed as a one-key starting icon. In order to facilitate ranking of the positions of the application icons in the favorites list, a moving direction indication icon is displayed on the target application icon currently obtaining the control focus, wherein the moving direction indication icon is used for representing the direction in which the position of the target application icon is movable, for example, left icons "<" and right icons ">" are displayed on two sides of the target application icon, and the moving direction of the position ranking of the target application icon can be leftwards or rightwards. As shown in fig. 13 (c), a one-key start icon is displayed above the "rotate" icon, and at the same time, a left icon "<" is displayed on the left side of the "rotate" icon, and a right icon ">" is displayed on the right side.

The control focus is positioned on the target application icon, and the user triggers the left and right keys of the control device, so that the position ordering of the target application icon can be realized. The user triggers the left key or the right key, and then generates a corresponding sorting control instruction, wherein the sorting control instruction can carry the moving direction of the target application icon. For example, if the user activates the left key to implement activating the left icon, then a sort control instruction is generated to move left; if the user triggers the right key to trigger the right icon, a sequencing control instruction for rightward movement is generated.

The controller receives a sorting control instruction generated by a left key and a right key on the user trigger control device, and controls the target application icon to move in accordance with the moving direction indicated by the sorting control instruction, for example, if the user triggers the left key, the target application icon needs to move leftwards, the application icon adjacent to the left side of the target application icon changes position, namely, the target application icon moves leftwards once to occupy the home position of the left application icon, and the left application icon is converted to the home position of the target application icon. As shown in fig. 13 (d), the "rotation" and the "parent circle" are shifted in position. If the target application icon is converted to the first position through the position sorting and cannot move leftwards again, the left icon on the left side of the target application icon after the position conversion is canceled from being displayed.

And when the user triggers the left key on the control device once, a sequencing control instruction is generated once, and the controller controls the target application icon to perform the position movement for the same times to the left according to the times of the received sequencing control instruction until the target application icon is moved to a position satisfactory to the user. Each time the target application icon moves, the position is changed with the application icon on the left side.

The implementation process of triggering the right key by the user and controlling the right moving position of the target application icon is the same as the implementation process when triggering the left key, and will not be repeated here.

When the target application icon is in the moving position, the control focus is always located on the target application icon, that is, the control focus moves along with the movement of the target application icon to characterize that the target application icon is currently subjected to the user-defined setting operation, as shown in fig. 13 (d), and the control focus is always obtained by the rotating icon after the position is changed.

If the target application icon is an icon located in the middle of the favorites list, and the direction indication icons are displayed on the left and right sides of the favorites list, then in this case, when the editing icons of the target application icon are triggered to perform position sorting, the left and right sides of the target application icon are also displayed with the left and right icons, and at this time, when the left and right keys of the control device are triggered, a situation in which the left and right movement instructions collide occurs. Thus, to avoid the controller not knowing how to execute the move instructions, it is configured to preferentially execute the position-ordered move instructions.

After completing the position sorting of the target application icon, the user can end the current position sorting operation process by triggering a return key or a down key on the control device. Specifically, after completing the position ordering operation, the controller is further configured to:

step 153, receiving a return instruction generated when a return key on the control device is triggered after finishing the position sorting operation of each application icon in the favorite list.

Step 154, in response to the return instruction, storing the favorite list after the position sorting operation, displaying a control focus on the target application icon for which the position sorting operation is executed last time, and switching and displaying the one-touch start icon displayed on the target application icon as an editing icon.

After completing the position sorting operation of a certain application icon in the favorite list and completing the position sorting operation of each application icon in the favorite list, the user can exit the current position sorting operation process by triggering a return key on the control device and also can exit the current position sorting operation process by triggering a twice-down key on the control device.

The return key can realize one-key return, namely when the return key is triggered, the position ordering operation is directly exited, and a return instruction is generated. The controller receives a return instruction, firstly stores the favorite list after position ordering, displays a control focus on the application icon on which the last position ordering operation is executed, simultaneously cancels the display of the one-key starting icon, displays the editing icon, returns to the initial display state of the favorite list, obtains the control focus on the target application icon 'rotation' after position transformation, and displays the editing icon 'upward key' above the 'rotation' icon as shown in fig. 13 (e). The initial display state refers to a state that a custom setting icon displayed on an application icon which obtains a control focus on a favorite list is an editing icon.

The key pressing can realize one-step return, namely, the key pressing can be returned to the previous step after one time of triggering, and the initial state of displaying the favorite list can be returned after the key pressing is triggered for a plurality of times. Every time the user triggers a key down, a return instruction is generated. The controller receives a plurality of return instructions and returns to the initial display state of the favorite list according to the step by step steps.

When the position ordering operation is carried out on the favorite list, the user-defined setting icon displayed on the application icon of the control focus is obtained to be a one-key starting icon, so that the user triggers the first key down, the controller exits the position ordering operation, and the control focus is moved to the one-key starting icon; the user triggers the second key press, the controller exits the editing operation, moves the control focus to the current application icon, cancels the display of the one-key starting icon, and simultaneously displays the editing icon.

After the user completes the current custom setting, the user can either trigger the return key on the control device to exit the current operation by one key or trigger the down key on the control device to exit the current operation step by step and return to the initial state.

In order to facilitate prompting the user to perform the custom setting on the control key, the controller is further configured to: after the mapping relation between the target application icon and the control key is established, receiving a return instruction generated when a return key on the control device is triggered; and responding to the return instruction, presenting a favorite list with the user-defined setting being completed in a user interface, and displaying an operation prompt on the favorite list with the user-defined setting being completed, wherein the operation prompt is used for prompting an operation method of a control button on the favorite list with the user-defined setting being completed.

After the custom setting of the control key is completed, in order to obtain and display the favorite list after the custom setting, a return key or a lower key on the control device can be triggered to exit the custom setting operation process for multiple times so as to save the favorite list after the custom setting. The custom setting operation includes positional ordering of each application icon in the favorites list and setting any one of the application icons in the favorites list as a one-touch launch function.

Meanwhile, in order to enable a user to conveniently operate the control key at any time, the influence of the user experience caused by unfamiliar operation methods is avoided, a return instruction can be generated when the user exits from the custom setting operation process so as to present an operation prompt in a user interface, and the content of the operation prompt can be the operation method of the favorite list after the user is custom set.

For example, referring again to fig. 11 (d), if the application icon set as the one-touch start function is "rotate", the operation prompt is "you have successfully set" rotate "as one-touch start, short pressing the remote control key immediately starts the function, long pressing the remote control key enters the favorite list", and is displayed at the upper layer of the favorite list.

Therefore, the display device provided by the embodiment of the invention can realize the custom setting operation of the control keys on the control device. When the control key is triggered, a starting control instruction is generated, the controller responds to the starting control instruction, a favorite list is presented in a user interface, and a custom setting icon is displayed on one of application icons of the favorite list; and responding to a custom setting instruction generated when the custom setting icon is triggered, and establishing a mapping relation between a target application icon where the custom setting icon is positioned and the control key, wherein the mapping relation is used for starting an application corresponding to the target application icon when the control key is triggered. Therefore, the display device provided by the invention establishes the mapping relation with the most commonly used application icons of the user in the favorite list by carrying out the custom setting on the control key, so that the user can conveniently start the application program or the function corresponding to the application icon bound with the control key by triggering the control key, the user can quickly and conveniently search a certain function or the application program, the operation is simple and convenient, and the operation efficiency and the user experience effect are effectively improved.

After the display device provided in the foregoing embodiment is utilized to perform the custom setting on the control key on the control device, the user may implement the function or the application program corresponding to the one-key starting target application icon by triggering the control key.

Specifically, the display device provided by the embodiment of the invention comprises: a display configured to display a user interface; the control device is configured with a control key for completing the self-defined setting, and the control key is used for controlling the display of the favorite list and the function or the application program corresponding to the one-key starting target application icon; and the controller is respectively connected with the display and the control device, a favorite list which is used for completing the self-defined setting is configured in the controller, and application icons for realizing all functions are displayed in the favorite list.

A flowchart of a method of actuation of a control key according to an embodiment is illustrated in fig. 14. Upon triggering a control key to launch a function or application with one key, the controller is configured to:

s21, receiving a starting control instruction generated when a control key which is set in a self-defining mode is triggered.

And S22, when the starting control instruction is a short-press instruction, starting an application corresponding to a target application icon with a mapping relation with the control key which completes the user-defined setting in the favorite list.

And S23, displaying a favorite list which is subjected to user-defined setting in a user interface when the starting control instruction is a long-press instruction.

After the user finishes the user-defined setting of the control keys, when the display equipment is operated subsequently, the user triggers the control keys on the control device to generate a starting control instruction.

And the starting control instructions generated by different triggering time periods are different, namely different control strategies are generated for the favorite list. Therefore, after receiving the start control command, the controller needs to determine the trigger form of the start control command, that is, the command generated by pressing the control key for a short time or the command generated by pressing the control key for a long time.

And if the trigger time exceeds the preset time, determining that the trigger control key is in a long-press form, and generating a long-press instruction. If the triggering time length does not exceed the preset time length, determining that the control key is in a short-press form when triggering, and generating a short-press instruction.

If the start control instruction is a short press instruction, the controller can execute a one-key start function according to the start control instruction because of the application icon which has a binding relation with the control key, namely, start an application program or a function corresponding to a target application icon which has a mapping relation with the control key which completes the self-defined setting.

And if the starting control instruction is a long-press instruction, the controller executes the function of calling up the favorite list according to the starting control instruction, namely, displaying the favorite list which is subjected to self-defining setting in a user interface.

To avoid that the user forgets the method of operating the control key to complete the custom setting, in some embodiments, the controller is further configured to: receiving an exit instruction for exiting the display favorite list; in response to the exit instruction, cancelling display of the favorites list in the user interface; if a selected instruction for triggering the target application icon is received from the user interface, an operation prompt is displayed in the user interface, the operation prompt is used for representing that the target application icon selected by the user has established a mapping relation with the control key, and the control key is prompted to prompt an operation method of the favorite list after the user-defined setting is completed.

After the user interface exits from displaying the favorite list, if the user enters a function or an application program page in the user interface, if the function has set a one-key start function, an operation prompt is displayed in the user interface to prompt the user that the function or the application program has established a mapping relation with the control key, and prompt a specific operation method, for example, the user presses the remote control key for a long time to enter the favorite list after the current function is bound with the control key.

Therefore, the display device provided by the embodiment of the invention can execute one-key starting of the function or the application program bound with the control key for completing the self-defined setting, or call up the operation of displaying the favorite list on the user interface. When the controller receives a short-press instruction which is generated when the control key which completes the custom setting is triggered, starting an application corresponding to a target application icon with a mapping relation with the control key which completes the custom setting. And when the starting control instruction is a long-press instruction, displaying a favorite list which completes the self-defined setting in a user interface. Therefore, the display equipment provided by the invention can support the user to start the favorite application by pressing one key for a short time or call out the favorite list by pressing the control key on the remote controller for a long time through the interaction design of the control key on the self-defined remote controller by pressing the control key for a short time and pressing the control key for a long time, so that the user can search quickly and conveniently, and the operation is simple and convenient. In addition, the favorite list also supports sorting operation on the realized functions or application icons, effectively improves the operation efficiency and the user experience effect, and also effectively solves the problem that the old user cannot find the functions and the application.
