Detailed Description

To make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of some embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of some embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of some embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, but not all embodiments of the present invention.

The touch technology related to the application can be used in various devices for realizing human-computer interaction in a touch mode, and the touch can be direct touch, including optical touch of a light beam emitted by a remote control laser pen on a screen, or off-screen touch, such as gesture operation in front of the screen. Such devices may include, for example, vector pressure sensing, capacitive, resistive, infrared bezel, electromagnetic induction, optical induction, and surface acoustic wave touch screens.

It should be noted that the embodiments and features of the embodiments in the present application may be combined with each other without conflict. The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the embodiments with reference to the attached drawings.

FIG. 1 is a schematic flow diagram of a multi-window touch method according to some embodiments of the invention. As shown in fig. 1, the multi-window touch method may include: S11-S13.

S11, determining overlapped windows at the touch points;

in some cases, there may be many windows on the screen, and these windows may overlap each other, and at a touch point, there may be multiple windows covering the touch point at the same time, and determining the overlapping window at the touch point also refers to determining multiple windows covering the touch point.

For step S11, in some examples, overlapping windows at a touch point (i.e., which windows are covering the touch point) may be determined by:

and comparing the coordinates of the touch points with the distribution range of each window in all the windows, judging which windows cover the touch points according to the comparison result, and determining the windows covering the touch points as overlapped windows at the touch points. In the present application, the distribution range of the windows may be defined by coordinates of four vertices of the windows, or other coordinates that can define the positions of the windows.

According to different touch sensing principles, touch point coordinates can be acquired in multiple ways, for example, for an infrared frame type touch screen, infrared transmitting tubes and infrared receiving tubes are arranged on four sides of the screen of the infrared touch screen, and the infrared transmitting tubes and the infrared receiving tubes are in one-to-one correspondence to form infrared matrixes which are crossed horizontally and vertically. When a finger touches the screen, two infrared rays in the transverse direction and the vertical direction passing through the position can be blocked, so that the coordinate data of a touch point on the screen can be judged.

Further determinations regarding the coordinates of touch points are well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail herein. The windows have associated window vertex coordinates or window distribution ranges already when they are created.

And S12, judging the creation sequence of the overlapped windows at the touch points, and determining the window which is created last in the overlapped windows at the touch points as the window to be controlled by touch.

For step S12, in some examples, a corresponding window value may be set for each window according to the creation sequence of each window, including distributing or setting a ranking number or a numerical value related to the creation sequence for the window, or a relationship between the creation sequence and the window value may be established by using various functions, so that the size of the window value changes along one direction with time.

For example, an increasing window value may be set for each of the windows according to the creation order of each window. And determining the window with the largest window value in the overlapped windows at the touch points as the window to be controlled by touch. Or conversely, a reduced window value may be set for each of the windows, and the window with the smallest window value in the overlapping windows at the touch point is determined as the window to be controlled by touch.

For convenience of understanding some embodiments of the present invention, a coordinate axis perpendicular to the touch screen may be assumed or set, and the coordinate values set on the coordinate axis may correspond to an order of creating the windows, for example, in a case where an increasing window value is set for each of the windows according to an order of creating each window, if the order of creating the windows is window 1, window 2, window 3, and window 4 in turn, the coordinate value of window 1 may be set to be 5, the coordinate value of window 2 may be 10, the coordinate value of window 3 may be 15, and the coordinate value of window 4 may be 20.

And S13, enabling the window to be controlled by touch control to respond to the touch control.

For step S13, in some examples, the method may include displaying the window to be controlled by touch on the other windows completely, so that the window is not blocked by the other windows; and further performing touch operation on the content in the window.

In some embodiments, the multi-window touch method includes, after determining a window to be controlled, for the case where an increased window value is set for each of the windows according to the creation order of each window, and after determining the window to be controlled, resetting a window value larger than the remaining window values for the window to be controlled to replace the original window value.

For the situation that a reduced window value is set for each window in the windows according to the creation sequence of each window, after the window to be controlled is determined, a window value smaller than the other window values can be set for the window to be controlled to replace the original window value.

In some embodiments, when an increased window value is set for each of the windows according to the creation order of each window, and when the window value of the window to be controlled is already larger than the other window values, the window value of the window to be controlled is not set again.

In some embodiments, when a window value of a window to be controlled is already smaller than other window values, the window value of the window to be controlled is not reset.

The above scheme is now further illustratively explained as follows.

When an increased window value is set for each of the windows according to the creation order of each window, for example, in case 1, as shown in fig. 2, assuming that windows 1, 2 and 3 are sequentially stacked and the window values are 1, 2 and 3, respectively, windows 1 and 2 are partially overlapped, windows 2 and 3 are partially overlapped, when a touch is applied to the overlapped portion of windows 1 and 2 on window 2 but not to the overlapped portion of windows 3 and 2, since the window value is the largest window 2 among the overlapped windows at the touch point (at this time, windows 1 and 2), window 2 is determined as the window to be controlled by the touch, and accordingly, window 2 will be completely displayed on the other windows, that is, not covered or blocked by the other windows, and accordingly, window 2 will be newly assigned a window value to express its current state, which will be larger than the remaining window values, for example, the window value is 4, which is larger than the window value of window 3.

In case 2, it is also assumed that windows 1, 2, and 3 are sequentially stacked and the window values are 1, 2, and 3, respectively, windows 1 and 2 are partially overlapped, and windows 2 and 3 are partially overlapped, but at this time, the overlapped portions of windows 3 and 2 where touch is applied to window 3 are determined as the window to be controlled by touch because the window 3 with the largest window value is the window 3 in the overlapped windows (windows 3 and 2 at this time) at the touch point, and the window value will remain unchanged because window 3 is always at the position of the topmost window before and after touch. As a simplification of the process, the window may also be directly assigned a value larger than the window value 3, for example 4.

In some embodiments, the window 2 in case 1 above may not be completely displayed on the topmost layer of the window, i.e. it is allowed to be partially occluded by the window 3, keeping its original overlapping state, according to specific operation requirements. At this time, it is not necessary to reassign it.

In some embodiments, if the touch occurs in an independent window that does not overlap with any window, that is, after comparing the coordinate of the touch point on the touch screen with the coordinate distribution range covered by each window in all windows, if it is determined that the coordinate distribution range of only one window covers the coordinate of the touch point, the only window is determined to be the window to be controlled by the touch, and at this time, a window value larger than the values of the other windows may be reset for the only window to replace the original window value. Also, as previously described, if a portion of it is allowed to be occluded by the remaining windows, keeping its original overlapping state, it does not need to be reassigned. Or, when the window value of the window to be controlled is already larger than the other window values, the window value of the window to be controlled may not be reset.

As shown in fig. 3, the multi-window touch device 300 may include: a window determining unit 310, configured to determine an overlapping window at the touch point; a window determining unit 320, configured to determine a creation sequence of overlapping windows at the touch point, and determine a window that is created last in the overlapping windows at the touch point as a window to be controlled by touch; and a window response unit 330, configured to enable a window to be controlled by touch to respond to the touch.
