Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, not all, embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
As stated in the background art, when a user inputs characters into a character input interface, the characters input by the user are processed into a dark text in a part of scenes, so that the user cannot clearly know what the currently input characters are, and further, a password input error and a user need to input again due to inconsistency between the currently input characters and the characters expected to be input by the user exist.
Based on this, the embodiments of the present specification detect an input operation performed by a user, for example: inputting characters or inputting voice information on a character input interface, and switching an input mode and/or a character display state of the character input interface when an input operation meets a predetermined condition so as to balance character input accuracy and character input efficiency.
For convenience of subsequent description, the following may specifically describe the character input interface as a password setting interface, and describe an application scenario of the present invention as follows:
referring to the password setting interface shown in fig. 2a and 2b, a first application scenario of the present invention may be:
the password setting interface is in a single-input mode, namely an input area (such as a common input box) is arranged in the password setting interface, and a user can input a password once. And a switching button is arranged at the rear part of the input area and is used for switching the display state of the password of the input area and/or switching the input area in the password setting interface into two.
For example: referring to fig. 2a, the display state of the password in the password setting interface is a default ciphertext display state, and before, during or after the user inputs the password, the user clicks to select a switch button, so that the ciphertext display state of the password is switched to a plaintext display state, referring to fig. 2 b;
and/or the presence of a gas in the gas,
before, during or after the user inputs the password, clicking to select a switching button, and switching one input area into two input areas; alternatively, the switching button is deselected to switch two input regions to one input region.
Therefore, the user can clearly know the currently input password, and the problem that the input password is inconsistent with the expected input password is avoided.
Referring to the password setting interface shown in fig. 2c and fig. 2d, a second application scenario of the present invention may be:
the password setting interface is in a multi-input mode, namely the password setting interface is provided with at least two input areas, a user needs to input passwords at least twice, and the input passwords at least twice need to be the same. And a switching button is arranged at the rear part of the first input area and is used for switching the display states of the passwords of all the input areas and/or switching the number of the input areas in the password setting interface to one or less than at least two.
For example: referring to fig. 2c, the display state of the password in each input region in the password setting interface is a default ciphertext display state, and before, during or after the user inputs the password, the user clicks to select a switch button, so that the ciphertext display states of the passwords in all the input regions are switched to a plaintext display state, see fig. 2 d;
and/or the presence of a gas in the gas,
before, during or after the user inputs the password, clicking to select a switching button, and switching the two input areas into one input area; alternatively, the switching button is deselected to switch two input regions to one input region.
For the above two application scenarios, it is understood that the application is applicable to a terminal device as well as a PC terminal and the like. The terminal device includes a mobile terminal, a PC terminal, etc., and the mobile terminal or called mobile communication terminal refers to a computer device that can be used in mobile, and broadly includes a mobile phone, a notebook, a tablet computer, a POS machine, and even a vehicle-mounted computer. But most often refer to cell phones or smart phones and tablets with multiple application functions. For convenience of description, the following description will be given by taking an application to a smartphone as an example.
The technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Example 1
Fig. 3 is a schematic flow chart of a character input method according to embodiment 1 of the present invention, and referring to fig. 1, the method may be executed by a mobile phone processor, and specifically includes the following steps:
wherein, the multiple input mode preferably corresponds to two input areas under general conditions; the input area may be exemplified as an input box.
Step 34, when the received input operation meets a preset condition, switching the input mode and/or the character display state of the character input interface; wherein the character display state includes: a plaintext display state or a ciphertext display state;
it should be noted that, the first implementation manner of step 34 may be:
with reference to fig. 6a, when the character input interface is in the single input mode, if the input operation includes a character deletion operation, at least one of the following operations is performed:
switching the character input interface to a multi-input mode;
and when the character display state is the ciphertext display state, switching the character display state into a plaintext display state.
A second implementation of step 34 may be:
referring to fig. 6b, when the character input interface is in the multiple input mode, if the input duration in the first input area reaches a predetermined threshold, at least one of the following operations is performed:
switching the character input interface to a single input mode;
and when the character display state is a plaintext display state, switching the character display state to a ciphertext display state.
A third implementation of step 34 may be:
with reference to the first application scenario and the illustrations in fig. 6a and 6b, when an input operation of triggering a switch key performed on the character input interface is detected, an input mode of the character input interface is switched.
For the three implementations of step 34 above, the input operation may be, for example:
example 1, on a character input interface, a touch operation of inputting a character is performed through a touch screen;
example 2, in a character input scene, non-touch operations such as voice information are input to a terminal device based on an information acquisition function of the terminal device.
And step 36, displaying the characters input in the character input interface according to the switched input mode and/or the character display state.
It should be noted that, the implementation manner of step 36 may be, for example:
if the character input interface is switched to a multi-time input mode, displaying the input characters in a first input area in the character input interface; or,
if the character display state is switched to the plaintext display state, processing the input character into plaintext and displaying the plaintext in a character input interface; or,
and if the character display state is switched to the ciphertext display state, processing the input character into a ciphertext and displaying the ciphertext in the character input interface.
It can be seen that, in the present embodiment, the input mode and/or the character display state of the character input interface are switched by detecting the input operation of inputting characters by the user and when the input operation meets the predetermined condition. Compared with the scheme of replacing characters by dark texts in the prior art, the method can effectively balance character input accuracy and character input efficiency.
Example 2
Fig. 4 is a schematic flow chart of a character display method according to embodiment 2 of the present invention, and referring to fig. 4, the method may be executed by a processor of a mobile phone, where a character is specifically a password, and a character input interface is specifically a password setting interface, and the method may exemplarily include the following steps:
step 42, determining the current display state of the password in the input box of the password setting interface, wherein the current display state comprises: a plaintext display state or a ciphertext display state;
it should be noted that, the first implementation manner of step 42 may be:
and based on user operation, after entering a password setting interface, determining the current display state as a default display state.
The default display state is preferably a plaintext display state, so that the user can clearly know what the input password is.
A second implementation of step 42 may be:
detecting whether a user selects a switching button in the application scene;
if so, switching the current display state from the default display state to another display state, for example: and when the default display state is the ciphertext display state, the switched current display state is the plaintext display state.
And if not, determining the current display state as the default display state.
The default display state is preferably a ciphertext display state. Further, in general, the password is displayed as a ciphertext; when a user needs the password (selects a switching button), the password is displayed as a plaintext, and the purpose of avoiding password leakage as much as possible is achieved.
And step 44, displaying the password as a plaintext display state or a ciphertext display state according to the current display state and the received input operation of inputting the password in the input box.
It should be noted that, one implementation manner of step 44 may be:
determining a password corresponding to the input operation of the user;
the password is displayed in the input box in plain text or in the password based on the current display state determined at step 42.
Another implementation of step 44 may be:
determining whether a display state needs to be switched based on input operation of a user;
if yes, the current display state determined in step 42 is switched, for example: switching the ciphertext display state into a plaintext display state as a current display state; if not, the current display state is not switched.
Then, the password is displayed in the input box based on the display state after the switching.
Therefore, in the process of setting the password by the user, the password display state of the password setting interface is defaulted to the plaintext display state, or the current display state of the password is switched to the plaintext display state based on the selection of the user, or the current display state is automatically switched to the plaintext display state based on the input operation of the user, so that the password can be displayed in the input frame in the form of the plaintext. Compared with the scheme that the cipher is replaced by the cipher text such as the graph and the character and displayed in the input box in the prior art, the method and the device can effectively reduce the operation complexity of the user and improve the setting efficiency of the cipher.
Example 3
Fig. 5 is a schematic flow chart of a character display method according to embodiment 3 of the present invention, and referring to fig. 5, the method may be applied to a mobile phone, where a character is specifically a password, and a character input interface is specifically a password setting interface, and the method may exemplarily include the following steps:
it should be noted that, one implementation of step 52 may be:
after entering a password setting interface, determining an input mode and a display state of the password setting interface;
then, the input operation of the user is monitored to collect data related to the input operation, such as: the input content (password), the input time length, whether a deletion operation exists in the input, and the like.
and 56, displaying the password based on the switched input mode and/or display state.
It should be noted that, one implementation manner of the steps 54 and 56 may be:
detecting whether the input operation meets a preset switching condition;
if so, switching the input mode and/or the display state of the password setting interface, and displaying the password based on the switched input mode and/or the display state.
If not, the step of determining the current input mode and the display state based on the predetermined current input mode and the display state display password is referred to as embodiment 1, and is not described herein again.
For this implementation of steps 54 and 56, different switching conditions are set based on the determined current input mode and display state of the password setting interface, which are exemplified as follows:
for example, referring to fig. 6a, when the password setting interface is in the single-input mode and the display state is the ciphertext display state, the switching condition may be that an operation of deleting the password exists in the input operation;
it is understood that, in the single-input mode and the ciphertext display state, if the user performs the delete operation on the inputted password "● ● ● ● ● ● ●", the user obtains "● ● ● ●". Since the password is invisible and the form of the ciphertext is single, it is difficult for the user to clearly know what the password obtained after deletion is, and therefore, a step of switching the input mode and/or the display state is required to ensure that the user clearly knows the input password.
The step of switching the input mode and/or the display state may specifically be as follows:
scheme one, switching the single input mode and the ciphertext display state into the single input mode and the plaintext display state
Therefore, the scheme only switches the display state of the password without increasing the operation amount of the user, can ensure the correctness of password input, and can improve the efficiency of password input.
Scheme two, switching the single input mode into the multiple input mode
The display state of the multiple input mode may be a ciphertext display state or a plaintext display state. Here, the ciphertext display state is preferable.
In the second embodiment, it should be noted that the multiple input mode has a plurality of input boxes, and here, it is preferable that the password input in the single input mode is displayed in the first input box in the multiple input mode.
In addition, it is understood that, by switching the single input mode to the multiple input mode, whether the user clearly inputs the password can be determined based on whether the passwords input by the user multiple times are consistent. The ciphertext display state is preferred to maximize password leakage.
For example, referring to fig. 6b, when the password setting interface is in the multiple-input mode and the display state is the plaintext display state, the switching condition may be that the input duration of the input operation reaches a predetermined threshold;
it is understood that, in the multiple input mode and the plaintext display state, if the input duration exceeds a certain time, it can be inferred that the user has fully known the password of the current input box, and the user does not need to input and determine the password again, so that the step of switching the input mode and/or the display state can be performed to save the time of the user.
The step of switching the input mode and/or the display state may specifically be:
and switching the multi-time input mode into a single-time input mode of a ciphertext display state/a plaintext display state.
Preferably, the mode is switched to the single-input mode of the ciphertext display state, so as to prevent the password from leaking as much as possible.
For example two, there are two ways to determine whether the handover condition is satisfied, the first is: determining whether it is detected that the user presses the switch button for a predetermined time, for example: 3s, if yes, the switching condition is met; and the second method comprises the following steps: judging that a predetermined time period is reached after entering the plaintext display state, for example: and 3s, if so, meeting the switching condition.
Therefore, in the embodiment, the input operation performed by the user is collected, and the input mode and/or the display state are switched when the input operation meets the preset condition, so that on one hand, the user can be ensured to know what the input password is by switching the display state, and the condition that the input is wrong is avoided; on the other hand, by switching the input mode, the situation of unnecessary re-input confirmation can be avoided, and the time of the user is saved; in another aspect, the efficiency of setting the password can be effectively improved by switching the input mode and the display state.

Compared with the scheme of replacing characters by dark texts in the prior art, the method can effectively reduce the operation complexity of user input operation and improve the character input efficiency.
