It is understood that these scenarios are exemplary lists, and any other possible application scenarios may also be used in the specific implementation, and the embodiments of the present invention are not limited.

The icon display method provided by the embodiment of the invention is described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

As shown in fig. 2, an embodiment of the present invention provides an icon display method, which may include S201 and S202 described below.

S201, the electronic equipment receives a first input of a user to a first icon in a desktop of the electronic equipment.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the first icon may be an icon of an application program, or the first icon may be an icon of a folder, which may be determined specifically according to an actual use requirement, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present invention.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the first input may be a sliding input that a user slides on the first icon along the first direction. The first direction may be an arbitrary direction with respect to the first icon.

For example, the first direction may be an upward direction with respect to the first icon. Alternatively, it may be in a downward direction with respect to the first icon. Or may be in a leftward direction relative to the first icon. Alternatively, the first icon may be oriented rightward with respect to the first icon. The method can be determined according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the invention is not limited.

Further, the first direction may be a clockwise direction. Alternatively, the direction may be counterclockwise. The method can be determined according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the invention is not limited.

It should be noted that the above-mentioned up, down, left, right, clockwise, counterclockwise, and the like are all exemplified by displaying the first icon on the display screen of the electronic device when the display screen of the electronic device faces the user.

Optionally, the electronic device in the embodiment of the present invention may be any possible electronic device, such as a single-screen electronic device, a multi-screen electronic device, a folding-screen electronic device, or a flexible-screen electronic device. In order to better describe the technical solution of the embodiments of the present invention, the electronic devices related to the following embodiments are not limited to the types and the number of screens unless otherwise specified.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the first input may be used to trigger the electronic device to display one or more icons on the desktop of the electronic device in an area (for example, a first area described below) on the desktop of the electronic device in an enlarged manner, which may be determined specifically according to actual usage requirements, and this embodiment of the present invention is not limited.

S202, the electronic equipment responds to the first input, and at least one icon in the desktop of the electronic equipment is displayed in a magnified mode in the first area.

The at least one icon may include a first icon, that is, the electronic device may display the first icon at least in an enlarged manner.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the at least one icon may further include at least one second icon, that is, the electronic device may further enlarge and display the at least one second icon; that is, the electronic device may enlarge the first icon and the at least one second icon.

The detailed description of the at least one second icon will be described in detail in the following embodiments, which are not repeated herein.

Optionally, in an embodiment of the present invention, the first region may include any one of: the method comprises the following steps of displaying an icon on the electronic equipment desktop, displaying the icon on the electronic equipment desktop, and displaying the icon on the electronic equipment desktop.

Optionally, in an embodiment of the present invention, in an actual implementation, the first area may be a plurality of areas preset in the electronic device. Thus, the electronic device may determine different first areas according to different first inputs; that is, in the embodiment of the present invention, different first inputs may correspond to different first areas. In this way, the user can trigger the electronic device to enlarge and display the at least one icon in different first areas through different first inputs.

For example, if the input direction of the first input is different, the first area determined by the electronic device according to the first input may be different. Specifically, when the first direction is an upward direction, the electronic device may determine that the first area is an area where a component in the desktop of the electronic device is located; or, when the first direction is a downward direction, the electronic device may determine that the first area is an area where an icon is not displayed in a desktop of the electronic device; or, when the first direction is the counterclockwise direction, the electronic device may determine that the first area is an area where the icon is not displayed in the interface where the first icon is located; alternatively, when the first direction is a clockwise direction, the electronic device may determine that the first area is an area on the desktop of the electronic device where the at least one icon is displayed before the magnified display.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the correspondence between the first direction and the first area is only an exemplary description, and in an actual implementation, any other possible correspondence may also be used, and only one direction needs to correspond to only one first area.

In addition, in practical implementation, the electronic device may alternatively execute the above-described respective implementation manners (i.e., the first implementation manner, the second implementation manner, the third implementation manner, and the fourth implementation manner). For example, a plurality of first options may be preset within a "setting" (i.e., a setting application) in the electronic device, with different first options corresponding to different first regions. Therefore, the user can select different first options in the setting, then execute the first input, and trigger the electronic device to display the at least one icon in an enlarged manner in the first area corresponding to the first option selected by the user.

The four implementations are exemplarily described below with reference to specific examples.

The implementation mode is as follows: the first area is an area where a component in the electronic equipment desktop is located, namely the area where the component of the electronic equipment in the desktop is located, and at least one icon in the electronic equipment desktop is displayed in an enlarged mode.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present invention, the component may include any possible component, such as a time component, a weather component, or a music component, displayed on a desktop of the electronic device, which may be determined according to actual usage requirements, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present invention, the electronic device may display the at least one icon on the component in an overlapping manner; or, the electronic device may cancel displaying the component displayed in the first area, and then enlarge and display the at least one icon in the first area; alternatively, the electronic device may display the at least one icon directly within the first area such that the at least one icon overlays the components displayed within the first area. The method can be determined according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the invention is not limited.

The first implementation is exemplarily described below with reference to fig. 3.

Example 1 assuming that the at least one icon is a first icon, the electronic device may display an interface 30 in a desktop of the electronic device, as shown in (a) of fig. 3, the interface 30 respectively displays a time component, an application icon of "financing 1", an application icon of "chatting", an application icon of "setting", and an application icon of "mailbox 1", and the time component is located in an area a of the interface 30, and the application icon of "financing 1" is located on a first icon position 31 of the interface 30; so that the user can slide upwards (i.e. the first direction) on the application icon (i.e. the first icon) of "financing 1", that is, the electronic device receives the first input of the user to the first icon in the desktop of the electronic device; then, in response to the first input, as shown in fig. 3 (b) and fig. 3 (c), the electronic device may enlarge and display the application icon of "financing 1" in the area a of the interface 30, that is, the electronic device enlarges and displays at least one icon in the desktop of the electronic device in the first area (i.e., the area where the component in the desktop of the electronic device is located).

Further, as shown in (b) of fig. 3, after the electronic device displays the application icon of "financing 1" in the area a of the interface 30 in an enlarged manner, the electronic device may hold the application icon of "financing 1" displayed in the original size on the first icon position 31 of the interface 30; alternatively, as shown in fig. 3 (c), the electronic device may cancel the application icon of "financing 1" displayed in the original size on the first icon position 31 of the interface 30.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present invention, the electronic device may enlarge and display the application icon of "financing 1" in a manner of being superimposed on the time component; or, the electronic device may cancel the time component displayed in the area a first, and then enlarge and display the application icon of "financing 1" in the area a; alternatively, the electronic device may enlarge the application icon displaying "financing 1" directly within region a, such that the application icon of "financing 1" covers the time component displayed within region a.

In this implementation, since the electronic device can magnify the icon (i.e., the at least one icon) that the user desires to display, and magnify and display the magnified icon in the area of the display component in the desktop of the electronic device, the arrangement of the icons other than the at least one icon in the desktop of the electronic device in the desktop can be kept unchanged while the at least one icon is magnified and displayed. Therefore, convenience of the user in viewing other icons except the at least one icon in the electronic equipment can be guaranteed on the basis of magnifying and displaying the at least one icon.

The implementation mode two is as follows: the first area is an area where the icons are not displayed in the electronic equipment desktop, namely, the electronic equipment magnifies and displays at least one icon in the electronic equipment desktop in the area where the icons are not displayed in the electronic equipment desktop.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the first area may be any area, such as an application icon, a folder icon, a component, and the like, in the desktop of the electronic device, where no content is displayed. For example, a blank area in the electronic device desktop.

Optionally, in an embodiment of the present invention, when the at least one icon includes the at least two icons, that is, when there are a plurality of at least one icon, each icon in the at least one icon after being displayed in an enlarged manner may be located in the same interface of the electronic device desktop, or may be located in different interfaces of the electronic device desktop, and specifically may be determined according to the number of the at least one icon, the magnification of the at least one icon, and a distribution of an area of the electronic device desktop where the icon is not displayed.

It should be noted that, in the second implementation manner, if there is no area in which an icon is not displayed in each interface of the electronic device desktop (that is, the icon in each interface is full; for example, the interface shown in (a) in fig. 4), or the size of the area in which the icon is not displayed in each interface of the electronic device desktop is smaller than the display size of the at least one icon after being enlarged and displayed, the electronic device may newly build at least one interface in the desktop of the electronic device, and enlarge and display the at least one icon on the newly built at least one interface.

Further, before the electronic device creates an interface in the desktop, a prompt box (shown as 41 in fig. 4 (b)) may be displayed, and a prompt message (for example, "warning, cannot find the area where the icon is not displayed, and whether the interface is newly added") may be displayed in the prompt box to prompt the user that there is no suitable enlarged display area in the desktop.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the prompt box may further include a "yes" option (shown as 410 in (b) in fig. 4) and a "no" option (shown as 411 in (b) in fig. 4); the 'yes' option is used for confirming the new interface, and the 'no' option is used for triggering cancellation of the new interface.

The second implementation is exemplarily described below with reference to fig. 4.

Example 2, the at least one icon is assumed to comprise at least one second icon, and the at least one second icon is an application icon of a 'short message' and an application icon of a 'compass' displayed in the desktop of the electronic equipment; the desktop of the electronic equipment is assumed to comprise two interfaces, namely an interface I and an interface II; then, as shown in fig. 4 (a), which is a schematic diagram of an interface one 40 of the electronic device desktop, there is no area in the interface one 40 where icons are not displayed (i.e. the icons in the interface one 40 are full); as shown in fig. 4 (c), which is a schematic diagram of the second interface 42 of the desktop of the electronic device, no icon is displayed in the area B of the second interface 42. Thus, as shown in fig. 4 (a), the user may slide upwards (i.e., the first direction) on the application icon of the "setting" (i.e., the first icon) in interface one 40, that is, the electronic device receives a first input by the user to the first icon in the desktop of the electronic device; then, in response to the first input, the electronic device may enlarge and display the application icon of "setup", "short message", and "compass" within the area B in the second interface 42 of the desktop of the electronic device, as shown in fig. 4 (d); that is, the electronic device displays at least one icon on the desktop of the electronic device in a magnified manner in the first area (i.e., the area of the desktop of the electronic device where the icon is not displayed).

For other descriptions in the second implementation manner, reference may be made to the related descriptions in the first implementation manner, and details are not described here again.

In this implementation, since the electronic device can magnify the icon (i.e., the at least one icon) that the user desires to display, and magnify and display the icon in the desktop of the electronic device in the area where the icon is not displayed, the display area of the other icons except the at least one icon in the desktop of the electronic device is ensured to be unchanged while the at least one icon is magnified and displayed, and the display area of the component in the desktop of the electronic device is ensured to be unchanged. In this way, convenience of a user in viewing other icons and components except the at least one icon in the electronic equipment can be guaranteed on the basis of magnifying and displaying the at least one icon.

The implementation mode is three: the first area may be an area where the first icon is not displayed in the interface where the first icon is located, that is, at least one icon in the desktop of the electronic device is displayed in an enlarged manner in the area where the icon is not displayed in the interface where the first icon is located by the electronic device.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the first area may be an area where content is not displayed, such as an application icon, a folder icon, and a component, in an interface where the first icon is located. When the interface where the first icon is located has no area where the icon is not displayed, the electronic device may display a prompt box to prompt a user that there is no area where the icon is not displayed in the interface.

The third implementation is exemplarily described below with reference to fig. 5.

For example, it is assumed that the at least one icon is an application icon of "short message", "compass", "mailbox 1", and the first icon is an application icon of "short message"; then, as shown in fig. 5 (a), the electronic device displays an interface 50 in the desktop of the electronic device, an application icon of "short message", "compass", and "mailbox 1" are displayed on the interface 50, and no icon is displayed in the area C of the interface 50; thus, the user can slide down (i.e. the first direction) on the application icon (i.e. the first icon) of the "short message", i.e. the electronic device receives the first input of the user to the first icon in the desktop of the electronic device; then, in response to the first input, the electronic device may enlarge and display an application icon of "short message", "compass", and "mailbox 1" within the area C of the interface 50, as shown in fig. 5 (b); namely, the electronic equipment magnifies and displays at least one icon in the desktop of the electronic equipment in a first area (namely, an area where the icon is not displayed in the interface where the first icon is located).

For other descriptions in the third implementation manner, reference may be specifically made to the relevant descriptions in the first implementation manner and the second implementation manner, and details are not described here again.

In this implementation manner, since the electronic device may magnify the icon (i.e., the at least one icon) required by the user, the magnified icon is displayed in an area where the icon is not displayed in the interface where the first icon is located (i.e., the interface where the user executes the first input, i.e., the interface displayed by the electronic device when the electronic device executes the first input); therefore, the user can directly view the at least one icon displayed in the enlarged mode in the interface where the first icon is located, and the user does not need to search other interfaces of the desktop for the icon displayed in the enlarged mode. Therefore, convenience of the user in viewing the magnified displayed icons can be improved on the basis of magnifying the displayed icons.

Further, since the electronic device magnifies the icon that the user desires to display (i.e., the at least one icon) in an enlarged manner in the area where the icon is not displayed in the interface where the user performs the first input, it is ensured that the display area of the icons other than the at least one icon in the desktop of the electronic device remains unchanged, and the display area of the component in the desktop of the electronic device remains unchanged. Therefore, convenience of the user for viewing other icons and components except the at least one icon in the electronic equipment can be guaranteed on the basis of improving convenience of the user for viewing the magnified displayed icon.

The implementation mode is four: the first area is an area where the at least one icon is displayed in the desktop of the electronic device before the at least one icon is displayed in an enlarged manner, namely, the at least one icon in the desktop of the electronic device is displayed in an enlarged manner in the area where the at least one icon is displayed in the desktop of the electronic device before the at least one icon is displayed in an enlarged manner by the electronic device.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, before the electronic device displays the at least one icon in an enlarged manner, the electronic device may display an area of the at least one icon in the desktop of the electronic device, and display the at least one icon in an enlarged manner. That is, the electronic device may display the at least one icon in an enlarged manner on the original icon position of the at least one icon, that is, before and after the electronic device displays the at least one icon in an enlarged manner, the icon position of each icon in the at least one icon remains unchanged. For example, assuming that the first icon is located on an icon position of an interface of the desktop of the electronic device before the first icon is displayed in an enlarged manner, the first icon displayed in the enlarged manner is still located on the icon position after the first icon is displayed in the enlarged manner.

In this implementation manner, in actual implementation, when the electronic device displays at least one icon in an enlarged manner, the electronic device may further enlarge the size of the icon position where the at least one icon is located according to the enlargement factor (for example, the following target factor) of the at least one icon.

In this implementation, since the electronic device may magnify the icon (i.e., the at least one icon) that the user desires to display, and magnify and display the icon in the desktop of the electronic device, the icon position where the at least one icon is originally displayed may be magnified and displayed on the basis of not changing the icon position where the at least one icon is located, so that the speed of magnifying and displaying the at least one icon may be increased.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, in each of the foregoing implementation manners (i.e., implementation manner one, implementation manner two, implementation manner three, and implementation manner four), after the electronic device executes the foregoing S202, the electronic device may keep the at least one icon displayed in an original size (i.e., a display size of the at least one icon before the user executes the foregoing first input) in the desktop of the electronic device; or the electronic device may cancel displaying the at least one icon displayed in the original size in the desktop of the electronic device. The method can be determined according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the invention is not limited.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, in step S202, when the electronic device displays at least one icon in an enlarged manner, the electronic device may display the at least one icon in an enlarged manner by a magnification factor (for example, a target magnification factor described below). Specifically, S202 may be implemented as S202a described below.

S202a, responding to the first input, and magnifying and displaying at least one icon in the desktop of the electronic equipment in the first area according to the target multiple by the electronic equipment.

The target multiple may be a preset multiple pre-stored in the electronic device, or the target multiple may be determined by the electronic device according to the input parameter of the first input. The method can be determined according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the invention is not limited.

In a possible implementation manner, when the target multiple is a preset multiple pre-stored in the electronic device, multiple options may be set in the "setting" (i.e. setting application) of the electronic device, and each multiple option may correspond to one preset multiple. Therefore, before the user executes the first input, the user can input the corresponding multiple option, trigger the electronic device to select the corresponding preset multiple, and take the selected preset multiple as the target multiple. In this way, after the user performs the first input, the electronic device may display the at least one icon in the first area in an enlarged manner according to the preset multiple selected by the user trigger.

In another possible implementation manner, when the target multiple is a multiple determined by the electronic device according to the input parameter of the first input, a value of the target multiple may be proportional to a parameter value of the input parameter of the first input.

Wherein the input parameters of the first input may include at least one of: the input duration of the first input, the input track of the first input, the input ending position of the first input, and the input speed of the first input.

For example, taking the input duration in which the input parameter of the first input is the first input as an example, assuming that the duration t1 is twice the duration t2, and the target multiple is b1 when the input duration is t1, the target multiple may be b1 which is 2 times when the input duration is t 2.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, when the target multiple is a multiple determined by the electronic device according to a first input parameter, in a process of executing the first input by a user, the electronic device may determine a real-time display multiple of the at least one icon according to a first input real-time input parameter; therefore, the electronic equipment can display the at least one icon in the first area in an amplifying mode according to the determined real-time display multiple and with the first preset transparency.

For example, as in (a) of fig. 6, while the user slides up on the application icon of "financing 1" in the interface five 60, the electronic device may magnify the application icon of "financing 1", the application icon of "chatting", and the application icon of "setting" in the display five 60 with a first preset transparency; and as shown in fig. 6 (b), the electronic device may magnify the application icon of "short message", the application icon of "compass", and the application icon of "mailbox" in the display interface six 61 with a first preset transparency.

Further, the electronic device may take the corresponding real-time display multiple when the finger of the user leaves the screen of the electronic device as the target multiple. Thus, the electronic device can display at least one icon in an enlarged manner according to the target magnification.

For example, assuming that the real-time display magnification corresponding to when the user's finger leaves the screen of the electronic device is 2 times, the electronic device may enlarge the display sizes of the application icon of "financing 1", the application icon of "chat", and the application icon of "setup" in the interface five 60 by 2 times, as shown in (a) of fig. 7; accordingly, the electronic device may enlarge the display size of the application icon of "short message" in the interface five 61, the application icon of "compass", and the application icon of "mailbox 1" by 2 times, as shown in (b) of fig. 7.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the electronic device may display each icon in the at least one icon in an enlarged manner according to the target multiple.

In the embodiment of the invention, the electronic equipment can display the at least one icon in an amplifying way according to the actual use requirement of the user, so that the flexibility of displaying the icon in the amplifying way of the electronic equipment can be improved, and the man-machine interaction performance is improved.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, before the electronic device magnifies and displays at least one icon on the desktop of the electronic device in the first area, that is, before the electronic device executes the foregoing S202, the electronic device may set an icon position adapted to the target multiple in the first area according to the target multiple, and then the electronic device may magnify and display the at least one icon on the icon position in the first area according to the target multiple.

Specifically, in the first implementation manner, the second implementation manner, and the third implementation manner, the electronic device may set an icon position for displaying the at least one icon in the first area according to the target multiple, and then enlarge and display the at least one icon on the set icon position. In the fourth implementation manner, the electronic device may enlarge the size of the icon position in the first area by the target multiple, and enlarge and display the at least one icon on the enlarged icon position by the target multiple.

Optionally, in an embodiment of the present invention, the at least one second icon may be any one of the following items: the icon with the appearance similarity greater than or equal to the preset threshold value with the first icon (implementation fifth), the other icons except the first icon in the interface where the first icon is located (implementation sixth), and the other icons except the first icon in the desktop of the electronic device (implementation seventh).

The icon display method in the embodiment of the present invention is exemplarily described below by way of a fifth implementation, a sixth implementation, and a seventh implementation, respectively.

The implementation mode is five: the at least one second icon is an icon of which the appearance similarity with the first icon is greater than or equal to a preset threshold value; namely, at least one icon comprises a first icon and the icon with the appearance similarity larger than or equal to the preset threshold value with the first icon.

It is understood that, in this implementation manner, the electronic device may display the first icon and the icon with the appearance similarity greater than or equal to the preset threshold in an enlarged manner.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the at least one second icon may be an icon on a desktop of the electronic device, where an appearance similarity between the at least one second icon and the first icon is greater than or equal to a preset threshold; or, the at least one second icon may be an icon in the interface where the first icon is located, and the appearance similarity between the at least one second icon and the first icon is greater than or equal to a preset threshold; the method can be determined according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the invention is not limited.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the appearance similarity between the icons may be determined according to display parameters of the icons. Wherein the display parameters of the icon may include at least one of: display color of the icon, display pattern of the icon.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, when the display parameter of the icon is a display color of the icon, the at least one second icon may be an icon whose similarity with the display color of the first icon is greater than or equal to a preset color threshold (that is, in this case, the preset threshold is a preset color threshold). When the display parameter of the icon is the display pattern of the icon, the at least one second icon may be an icon whose similarity to the display pattern of the first icon is greater than or equal to a preset pattern threshold (i.e., in this case, the preset threshold is a preset pattern threshold). When the display parameter of the icon is the display color of the icon and the display pattern of the icon, the at least one second icon may be an icon whose similarity with the display color of the first icon is greater than or equal to a preset color threshold value and whose similarity with the display pattern of the first icon is greater than or equal to a preset pattern threshold value.

For example, the display parameter of the icon is the display color of the icon, and the at least one second icon is an icon in the desktop of the electronic device. Assuming that the first icon is displayed in red and the display colors having a color similarity greater than or equal to the preset color threshold are red, pink and rose, the electronic device may determine the icon displayed in the desktop of the electronic device in red, pink or rose as the at least one second icon.

Further exemplarily, the display parameter of the icon is taken as the display pattern of the icon, and the at least one second icon is taken as the icon in the interface where the first icon is located. Assuming that the first icon is an icon including a circular pattern, and the patterns having a pattern similarity greater than a preset pattern threshold with respect to the circular pattern are a circular pattern and an elliptical pattern, the electronic device may determine the icon including the circular pattern or the elliptical pattern in the interface where the first icon is located as the at least one second icon.

The sixth implementation manner is that the at least one second icon is other icons except the first icon in the interface where the first icon is located, namely that the at least one icon comprises the first icon and other icons except the first icon in the interface where the first icon is located.

It can be understood that in this implementation manner, the at least one icon includes all icons in the interface where the first icon is located, so that the electronic device may display all icons in the interface where the first icon is located in an enlarged manner.

In a seventh implementation mode, at least one second icon is other icons except the first icon in the desktop of the electronic equipment; that is, the at least one icon includes the first icon and other icons in the desktop of the electronic device other than the first icon.

It is understood that in this implementation manner, the at least one icon may include all icons in the electronic device desktop, that is, the electronic device may magnify and display all icons in the electronic device desktop.

In the fifth implementation manner, since the electronic device may determine at least one second icon according to the appearance of the first icon, the electronic device may further enlarge and display an icon with a higher similarity to the appearance of the first icon on the basis of enlarging and displaying the first icon, so that a user may quickly and accurately distinguish the icons with similar appearances.

In the sixth implementation manner, since the electronic device may determine all the icons in the interface where the first icon is located as at least one icon, the user may trigger the electronic device to enlarge and display all the icons in one interface of the desktop through one input (for example, the first input), so that, compared with a scheme in which the user triggers the electronic device to enlarge and display all the icons in the desktop of the electronic device through one input, the scheme may improve the accuracy of enlarging and displaying the icons by the electronic device on the basis of improving the efficiency of enlarging and displaying the icons by the electronic device, and may better meet the use requirement of the user (generally, the interface operated by the user may be regarded as the interface that the user needs to use the most).

In the seventh implementation manner, since the electronic device may determine all the icons in the desktop of the electronic device as at least one icon, the user may trigger the electronic device to enlarge and display all the icons displayed in the interfaces of the desktop through one input (e.g., the first input). Therefore, compared with the scheme that the user triggers the electronic equipment to amplify and display all icons in one interface of the desktop through one input, the electronic equipment can amplify and display the icons in all the interfaces of the desktop of the electronic equipment by the same multiple, namely after the icons are amplified and displayed, the display sizes of the icons in all the interfaces of the electronic equipment are consistent, so that the layout of the desktop of the electronic equipment can be kept consistent on the basis of improving the icon amplifying and displaying efficiency, and the icon displaying effect of the electronic equipment can be further improved.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, when the at least one icon is all icons in the interface where the first icon is located (that is, the implementation sixth implementation), or all icons in the electronic device desktop (that is, the implementation seventh implementation), in the implementation fourth implementation (that is, the first area is an area where the at least one icon is displayed in the electronic device desktop before the at least one icon is displayed in an enlarged manner), after the electronic device executes the step S202, the first area may be a slidable area. That is, when the magnification (i.e., the target magnification) of at least one icon is large and the display size of the first area is small, the user may trigger the electronic device to update the icons displayed in the first area through a sliding input on the first area, so that the electronic device may present all the icons in the first area to the user through the first area.

For example, the first region may be presented to the user in a window of the electronic device (e.g., a window of a desktop of the electronic device). Specifically, the display size of the first area may be larger than the display size of the window, and at this time, an area within the window in the first area is visible to the user, and an area outside the window in the first area is invisible to the user. The user may then trigger the electronic device to display a different region of the first region in the window by operating on the window (e.g., sliding on the window) to make content (e.g., icons) on the different region of the first region visible to the user.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the electronic device may determine, under the condition that the width of the first area is kept unchanged, the number of icon bits included in each row of the first area according to the display size of each icon in the at least one icon after the enlarged display, so as to determine the number of icons that can be displayed in each row of the first area. And automatically moving the icon bits and icons for each row of the first area to the next row of the first area. Thus, after executing the above step S202, the first area is an interface capable of sliding up and down.

For example, it is assumed that at least one icon is all icons in an interface (which may be referred to as a first interface hereinafter) where the first icon is located, that is, the first area is an area where the icons are displayed in the first interface; further, it is assumed that the first area includes 9 icons (i.e., at least one icon), and each row of the first area includes 3 icon bits before the 9 icons are enlarged and displayed, and each row of the first area includes 2 icon bits after the 9 icons are enlarged and displayed; then, as shown in (a) of fig. 8, before the electronic device executes the above S202, each row in the first area 81 of the first interface 80 includes 3 icon bits, and the first area 81 includes 9 icon bits, and the 9 icon bits sequentially display an application icon of "finance 1", "an application icon of" chatting "," an application icon of "setting", "an application icon of" game "," an application icon of "mailbox 1", "an application icon of" news "," an application icon of "music", "an application icon of" reading ", and an application icon of" culture "(i.e. the above at least one icon); as shown in (b) of fig. 8, after the electronic device performs the above S202, each row of the first region 81 may include 2 icon bits. Since the first area is presented to the user in one window of the electronic device and the display size of the window is smaller than that of the first area, as shown in (b) of fig. 8, the application icon of "financing 1", the application icon of "chatting", the application icon of "setting", the application icon of "game", the application icon of "mailbox 1", and the application icon of "news" in the first area 81 are visible to the user, while the application icons of "music" and "reading" in the first area 81 are not fully displayed, and the application icon of "culture" in the first area 81 is not visible to the user.

In this case, the user may trigger the electronic device to update the icons displayed in the first area by a sliding input on the first area, so that the icons of different areas in the first area are visible to the user.

For example, as shown in fig. 8 (b), the user may slide upwards in the blank of the first area 81, triggering the electronic device to update the icon displayed in the first area 81. As shown in (c) of fig. 8, the application icon of mailbox 1, "news" application icon, "music" application icon, "reading" application icon, and "culture" application icon in the first area 81 of the first interface 80 are visible to the user, the application icon of "setting" and the application icon of "game" in the first area 81 are not fully displayed, and the application icon of "financing 1" and the application icon of "chatting" in the first area 81 are not visible to the user.

In the embodiment of the invention, the user can trigger the electronic equipment to enlarge and display at least one icon in the desktop in a certain area/certain areas of the desktop of the electronic equipment through one input, namely the electronic equipment can enlarge and display certain icons in the desktop of the electronic equipment, so that the display effect of the icons displayed by the electronic equipment can be improved under the condition that the size of the icons displayed by the electronic equipment is smaller. Furthermore, after the electronic equipment magnifies and displays the icons in the desktop of the electronic equipment, a user can conveniently look up or search the icons, so that the flexibility and convenience of displaying the icons can be improved on the basis of improving the display effect of displaying the icons on the electronic equipment, the convenience of looking up or searching the icons in the desktop of the electronic equipment by the user can be improved, and the human-computer interaction performance is improved.

Optionally, in the third implementation manner (that is, the first area is an area where no icon is displayed in the interface where the first icon is located), in a case that the at least one icon is the first icon, before displaying the first icon in an enlarged manner, the electronic device may first reduce and display other icons in the interface where the first icon is located (hereinafter, referred to as a target interface) in a certain area (for example, a second area) in the target interface, so that an area (that is, the first area) capable of displaying the enlarged and displayed first icon is left in the target interface, and thus the electronic device may display the first icon in the first area in an enlarged manner.

It should be noted that, in order to better describe each implementation manner in the embodiment of the present invention, in the following embodiment, an interface where the first icon is located may be referred to as a target interface, and the two interfaces have the same meaning and may be interchanged.

For example, in the embodiment of the present invention, with reference to fig. 2, as shown in fig. 9, in the third implementation manner, before S202, the icon display method provided in the embodiment of the present invention may further include S203 described below.

S203, the electronic equipment responds to the first input, and at least one third icon is displayed in a reduced mode in a second area of the interface where the first icon is located.

The at least one third icon may be an icon displayed in a third area in the interface where the first icon is located before the electronic device receives the first input; the third region may be the sum of the first region and the second region.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the third area is a sum of the first area and the second area, which means that the third area is composed of the first area and the second area. For example, as shown in (b) of fig. 10, assuming that the first region is a region shown by H and the second region is a region shown by G, the third region may be a region shown by F.

It can be understood that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the first area in S202 may be an area where no icon is displayed in the interface where the first icon is located after the electronic device displays the at least one third icon in a reduced manner. In this way, the electronic device can display the first icon in the first area in an enlarged manner.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the at least one third icon may be another icon in the target interface except for the first icon; alternatively, all icons in the target interface including the first icon may be used. The method can be determined according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the invention is not limited.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present invention, the electronic device may display the at least one third icon in a reduced size in the second area with a preset display effect. In this case, S203 may be specifically realized by S203a described below.

S203a, the electronic device responds to the first input, and at least one third icon is displayed in a reduced mode in a preset display effect in a second area of the interface where the first icon is located.

Wherein, the preset display effect may be at least one of the following: the display mode is a uniformly distributed mode, the display mode is a centralized stacking mode, the display mode is a second preset transparency mode, and the display mode is a preset dynamic special effect mode.

In the embodiment of the present invention, since the electronic device may display the at least one third icon in a reduced manner with different preset display effects, other icons may be distinguished from the icon displayed in an enlarged manner, that is, the icon displayed in an enlarged manner may be highlighted.

The above S203 is exemplarily described with reference to fig. 10.

For example, suppose an interface (hereinafter referred to as interface seven) of the electronic device desktop is displayed in area F: an application icon of 'financing 1', 'chatting' an application icon, 'setting' an application icon and 'mailbox' an application icon; then, as shown in (a) of fig. 10, the electronic device displays an interface seven 70, the user may slide upwards on the application icon of "financing 1" displayed in the area F of the interface seven 70, that is, the electronic device receives a first input of the user to a first icon in the desktop of the electronic device, and then, in response to the first input, as shown in (b) of fig. 10, the electronic device may zoom out the application icon of "chat", the application icon of "setup", and the application icon of "mailbox 1" in an evenly distributed manner in the area G of the interface seven 70; therefore, the electronic equipment can magnify and display the application icon of 'financing 1' in the area H of the seven 70 interface according to the target multiple. Alternatively, as shown in fig. 10 (c), the electronic device may zoom out the application icon displaying "chat", "setup", and "mailbox" in a centralized stacked manner in the region G of the interface seven 70; therefore, the electronic equipment can magnify and display the application icon of 'financing 1' in the area H of the seven 70 interface according to the target multiple.

In the embodiment of the invention, when a user needs the electronic equipment to display the first icon in an enlarged manner in the desktop where the first icon is located, because the electronic equipment can display the icon in the interface where the first icon is located in the enlarged manner in a reduced manner in one area of the interface, so that the area for displaying the first icon in the enlarged manner in the interface can be reserved, the electronic equipment can reduce at least one third icon in the interface where the electronic equipment is located no matter whether the area where the icon is not displayed exists in the interface where the first icon is located, so that the first icon is displayed in the reserved area in the interface in an enlarged manner, the user can directly view the enlarged first icon on the interface where the first icon is originally displayed, and the user does not need to search the enlarged first icon in each interface of the desktop, and the man-machine interaction performance can be improved.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, after the electronic device displays the at least one third icon in a reduced size, the user may further input a certain icon (for example, a first target icon) in the at least one third icon to trigger the electronic device to display the icon in the first area in an enlarged size.

For example, in conjunction with fig. 9, as shown in fig. 11, after S203, the icon display method provided in the embodiment of the present invention may further include S204 and S205 described below.

S204, the electronic equipment receives the input of the user to the first target icon in the at least one third icon.

S205, the electronic equipment responds to the input of the first target icon by the user, and the first target icon is displayed in a first area in an enlarged mode.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the electronic device may cancel displaying the first icon displayed in the first area, and then enlarge and display the first target icon in the first area.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the input of the first target icon by the user may be a sliding input of the user sliding on the first target icon along the second direction. Wherein the second direction may be the same as the first direction.

Exemplarily, as shown in (b) of fig. 10 above, the electronic device reduces the application icons displaying "chat", "setup", and "mailbox" in an area G of the interface seven 70 in a uniformly distributed manner, and enlarges the application icon displaying "financing 1" in an area H of the interface seven 70; then, the user may slide upward (i.e., in the second direction) on the app icon (i.e., the first target icon) of the "chat" displayed in the region G, and then, as shown in fig. 12, the electronic device may enlarge and display the app icon of the "chat" in the region H, that is, the electronic device enlarges and displays the first target icon in the first region in response to the user's input to the first target icon of the at least one third icon. The electronic equipment can also shrink and display an application icon of 'financing 1' in the area G.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the at least one third icon displayed in a reduced manner by the electronic device may be an icon operable by the user; alternatively, it may be an icon that is not operable by the user; the method can be determined according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the invention is not limited.

In the embodiment of the present invention, since the user can trigger the electronic device to display any one of the at least one reduced third icon in the first area of the target interface (i.e., the interface where the first icon is located) in an enlarged manner, that is, the electronic device can update the icon displayed in the first area in an enlarged manner, the flexibility of displaying the icon in the first area in an enlarged manner can be improved.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present invention, after the electronic device displays at least one icon in the desktop in the first area in an enlarged manner, that is, after the electronic device executes S202, the user may input a certain icon of the at least one icon after the display in an enlarged manner, and trigger the electronic device to display an interface of an application program corresponding to the icon, or display an expansion interface of a folder corresponding to the icon. Namely, in the embodiment of the present invention, at least one icon displayed in an enlarged manner by the electronic device is an icon that can be operated by the user.

For example, in conjunction with fig. 2, as shown in fig. 13, after S202, the icon display method provided in the embodiment of the present invention may further include S206 and S207 described below.

S207, the electronic equipment responds to the input of the user to a second target icon in the at least one icon, and displays an interface of the application program corresponding to the second target icon, or displays a folder expansion interface corresponding to the second target icon.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the at least one icon may be at least one icon that is displayed in an enlarged manner in the first area by the electronic device. Each of the at least one icon displayed in an enlarged manner may be used to indicate an application program, or may be used to indicate a folder, which may be determined according to actual usage requirements, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited thereto.

It can be understood that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the user may trigger the electronic device to run the application program indicated by the second target icon or display the expansion interface of the folder indicated by the second target icon by operating the second target icon.

In the embodiment of the invention, the at least one icon which is displayed in an amplifying way can be used for not only being viewed by a user, but also being operated by the user, so that the normal operation of the user can be not influenced on the basis of improving the icon display effect, and an application program or a folder corresponding to the at least one icon can be normally triggered.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, after the electronic device displays at least one icon on the desktop of the electronic device in the first area in an enlarged manner, that is, after the electronic device executes the foregoing S202, the user may further input a third target icon (hereinafter, referred to as a second input) in the at least one icon, trigger the electronic device to cancel the fourth target icon displayed in the first area in the enlarged manner, and display a position of the fourth target icon in the desktop of the electronic device before the fourth target icon is displayed in the enlarged manner, so as to display the fourth target icon in a display size before the fourth target icon is displayed in the enlarged manner, that is, the user may trigger the electronic device to resume displaying the display effect of the fourth target icon before the fourth target icon is displayed in the enlarged manner by inputting the third target icon.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the fourth target icon is an icon in at least one icon. When the fourth target icon is an icon, the fourth target icon is the same as the third target icon; when the number of the fourth target icons is multiple, the third target icon may be included in the fourth target icons.

Optionally, in an embodiment of the present invention, the second input may be a sliding input that a user slides along a third direction with a single finger on a third target icon, where the third direction may be a direction opposite to the first direction; in this case, the fourth target icon is the same as the third target icon. Alternatively, the second input may be a slide input in which a plurality of fingers of the user are positioned on icons of the third target icons and are pinched inward, in which case, the fourth target icon may be a part of at least one icon or may be all of the at least one icon. The method and the device can be determined according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the invention is not limited.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the icon display methods shown in the above method drawings are all exemplarily described by referring to one drawing in the embodiment of the present invention. In specific implementation, the icon display method shown in each method drawing can also be implemented by combining any other drawing which can be combined and is illustrated in the above embodiments, and details are not described here.
