Detailed Description

The following description of the embodiments of the present invention will be made clearly and fully with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which it is evident that the embodiments described are some, but not all embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the invention without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the invention.

Referring to fig. 1, a flowchart of an object display control method according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown, which is applied to an electronic device.

The method provided by the embodiment of the invention is used for performing display control on the object in the electronic equipment.

The object may be an icon, file, picture, label (i.e., control), etc. The icon may be an icon related to an application or an icon related to other data.

When the object is an icon for an application, the object may be an icon of a single application or a folder icon containing a plurality of application icons. In order to facilitate the reader to understand the present invention, the controlled object is taken as an application icon for example, and when the object is another type of object, the method is similar and will not be repeated.

The method for controlling object display may include a step of hiding an icon, and when hiding the icon, the method is mainly triggered and implemented by dragging the icon to be hidden to an icon that does not need to be hidden, which will be described in detail later.

The method shown in fig. 1 specifically may include the following steps:

step 101, receiving a first input of a user to a first object;

wherein the first input may include, but is not limited to, at least one of: single click input, long press input, double click input, slide input, etc.; and, the first input may also be a first operation.

In one example, the first object is an icon of APP1 in an icon interface of the electronic device.

In addition, the implementation manner of any one of the first input to the sixth input in each embodiment, which is the X-th input, is not limited, and may be a single click input, a sliding input, a long press input, and the like, which will not be described in detail.

Step 102, in response to the first input, displaying the target object in a case that a first input feature of the first input is a preset input feature and an object associated with the first object includes the target object.

Wherein the first input may have a first input feature, the first input feature may include a specific implementation of the first input, a biometric feature of the first input, and the like.

In addition, the embodiment of the invention can pre-establish the association relation between different objects, so if the first object has a target object pre-established with the association relation, the target object can be displayed.

It should be noted that, before step 101, the target object is in a hidden state.

Further, the number of the target objects may be one or more, and the target object is an object having an association relationship with the first object.

Optionally, before step 101, a method according to an embodiment of the present invention may include: and establishing association relation for different objects.

In the description of the application program as an example, the application requiring the hidden icon may be specifically set for the application requiring the hidden icon, where in the association relationship, the association relationship between the application requiring the hidden icon and the application requiring the hidden icon may be one-to-many, many-to-one, or one-to-one.

In one example, fig. 2A, 2B, and 2C illustrate a plurality of diagrams for generating an association relationship.

For example, the user wants to hide the icon of APP2 and the icon of APP3, then both applications can be associated with an application that does not need to hide the icons. In this example, an interface for hiding an application may be entered in the system setting of the electronic device, and an icon of APP1 may be selected in the interface, so as to present an interface as shown in fig. 2A, where the interface of fig. 2A includes an application name 21 (here APP 1), and a button 22 labeled "associated application"; the user then clicks on button 22 in the interface of fig. 2A to set up an application for APP1 with which the needs associated can be hidden; next, an interface for authentication may be displayed as shown in fig. 2B, including a keypad 23 (here numerals 1-9), a "ok" button 24, and a "change fingerprint" button 25. The user can enter a password by operating the password keypad 23 and then click on the "ok" button to trigger authentication. Alternatively, the user may click on the "replace fingerprint identification" button 25 to switch the mode of authentication from password authentication to fingerprint authentication, and then the user inputs fingerprint information in a preset area of the electronic device to trigger authentication. After the authentication passes, the system may display an interface for the associated application as shown in FIG. 2C. In fig. 2C, an application list may be displayed, which is formed by the names of applications installed by the electronic device and not having icons hidden, except for APP1, where the application names include APP2, APP3, APP4, APP5; also, each application name in the interface of fig. 2C is correspondingly displayed with a button 26, in this example, the user selects a button 26 corresponding to APP2 from the list, and selects a button 26 corresponding to APP3, so as to generate an interface as shown in fig. 2C, and in fig. 2C, the text displayed by the button 26 corresponding to APP2 is modified from "associated" to "associated"; similarly, the text displayed by the button 26 corresponding to APP3 is modified from "associated" to "associated", so that APP1 establishes a one-to-many association with APP2, APP 3.

Optionally, before step 101, the target object is in a hidden state.

In one embodiment, when the target object is displayed, if the object associated with the first object only includes the target object, the target object in the hidden state may be directly displayed;

in another embodiment, when displaying the target object, if the object associated with the first object comprises at least two target objects, i.e. in case the first object is associated with at least two target objects, a floating window is displayed, the floating window comprising the at least two target objects.

In one example, as shown in fig. 3A and 3B, the first object is the icon 31 of APP1 in the desktop interface in fig. 3A, and after the long press input fingerprint information passes the identity authentication, the user may display a floating window as shown in fig. 3B, here, an interface including a folder 32, where icons of applications associated with APP1 and whose icons are hidden in the desktop are displayed (i.e., where at least two target objects, such as icon 34 of APP2 and icon 35 of APP3, have been hidden by the method of the embodiment of the present invention to be in a hidden state).

In the embodiment of the invention, when at least two target objects associated with the first object are displayed in response to the first input, the floating window can be displayed, and the at least two target objects are displayed in the floating window, so that the at least two target objects associated with the first object can be displayed in the floating window even if the at least two target objects associated with the first object are in a hidden state, the control of displaying the at least two target objects associated with the first object is realized, and the user can conveniently operate the target objects in the hidden state.

Optionally, as shown in fig. 3B, the interface including the folder 32 further includes an icon 33 labeled "add", and the user may enter the setting interface of fig. 2A by clicking on the icon 33, so as to generate or adjust the association relationship of APP 1.

Optionally, after displaying the floating window, the method according to the embodiment of the present invention may further include:

receiving a second input of a user to a first target object of the at least two target objects;

in one example, as shown in fig. 3B, if the user needs to restore the icon 34 of APP2 in the hidden state (here, the first target object) to the display state, a long press input may be triggered to the icon of APP2 in fig. 3B, and the system may display a delete marker in the upper right corner of the icon of APP2, which the user clicks.

And responding to the second input, moving the first target object out of the floating window, and releasing the first association relation between the first target object and the first object.

After the user clicks the delete marker, the method according to the embodiment of the present invention may remove the icon 34 of APP2 from the folder 32, and optionally, may move the icon 34 of APP2 to a first original position in the desktop for separate display, where the first original position is located before the first target object is subjected to the hiding operation (i.e., switched from the display state to the hiding state). And, the association relationship between APP2 and APP1 will be released.

According to the embodiment of the invention, the first target object in the hidden state can be restored to the display state by triggering the second input to the target object in the hidden state and the target object in the restored display state can be independently displayed in the desktop, so that convenience and safety of restoring operation of the hidden object are improved.

In addition, by authenticating the second input fingerprint information, the probability of others finding applications hidden in the desktop can be reduced.

Optionally, the user may also delete the association relationship between APP2 and APP1 by operating on the association relationship in the system setting, so that the icon 34 of APP2 resumes to be displayed in the desktop.

Optionally, before step 101, the method according to an embodiment of the present invention may further include:

receiving a third input of a user to the first object and the target object; and establishing a first association relationship among the first object, fingerprint information corresponding to the third input and the target object, and hiding the target object.

In one example, the third input may be an input dragging the target object to within a preset range of the first object.

In the example shown in fig. 4A, where the first object is an icon 41 of APP1 and the target object is an icon 42 of APP2, the third input may be a sliding input dragging the icon 42 over the icon 41. Specifically, as shown in the desktop interface of fig. 4A, the user may receive the third input by pressing the icon 42 of APP2 in the desktop that needs to be hidden for a long time and dragging it over the icon 41 of APP 1.

Wherein a first association between APP1 (i.e. the first object) and APP2 (i.e. the target object) may be established in response to the third input, and fingerprint information of the third input may also be associated with this first association, and the icon 42 of APP2 may be hidden.

Furthermore, in this embodiment, the preset input features described in step 102 may include: the fingerprint information corresponding to the first input is a first preset fingerprint, and the first input is a pressing input.

The first preset fingerprint is fingerprint information of a third input in the first association relationship.

That is, after hiding the target object (here, the icon 42 of APP 2) by the method of the present embodiment, the user may press the icon 41 of APP1 associated with the APP2, and trigger the first input by using the same fingerprint information as when the first association is established, so that the hidden icon 42 of APP2 may be displayed. It should be noted, however, that the display is only that the user with authority displays the target object hidden before, but other users cannot display the hidden target object, so the target object is still marked as a hidden state.

In the embodiment of the invention, by receiving the third input to the first object and the target object, the fingerprint information corresponding to the first object and the third input and the first association relation between the target object can be established, and the target object is hidden, so that when the hidden target object needs to be restored to be displayed, a user can perform pressing input to the first object associated with the target object and perform the pressing input by adopting the fingerprint information used in the hiding process, so that the input characteristic of the pressing input is a preset input characteristic, the target object in a hidden state can be displayed, not only the object can be hidden, but also the hidden object can be restored to be displayed, and the fingerprint information adopted in the hiding and restoring display must be the same, thus the hiding and restoring display of the same object by the same user can be ensured, and the safety control of the target object is ensured.

In addition, in the embodiment of the invention, when the application with the hidden icon is required to be run, the user can utilize the fingerprint information when the icon is hidden to carry out the first input on the display icon associated with the hidden icon, so that the hidden icon associated with the display icon is restored to be displayed in a folder. The hidden function of the icon is open to the outside, but other people can not find the hidden application in the desktop under the condition of not depending on fingerprint information of the user except the user hiding the icon, so that the privacy of the application is improved. The icon is hidden by adopting a mode of associating the application, so that the icon hiding capability is stronger and the recognition is more accurate.

And the user can realize the hiding operation of the icon to be hidden by dragging the icon to be hidden to the position above another icon in the desktop, so that the icon to be hidden is not displayed in the desktop any more, and only the displayed icon associated with the icon is displayed.

Optionally, after fig. 4A, before hiding the icon 42, a prompt interface 43 shown in fig. 4B may also be displayed to prompt the user whether to hide the icon of APP2, and if the user clicks the "yes" button 44, a desktop interface as shown in fig. 4C is displayed, so that the icon 41 and the icon 42 are originally displayed in the desktop interface, and only the icon 41 as shown in fig. 4C is displayed now, where the icon 42 is hidden, that is, the icon 42 of APP2 is switched from the display state to the hidden state.

Alternatively, in another embodiment, when establishing the association relationship between two objects and hiding one of the objects, the following steps 201 to 204 may be implemented, where the following steps 201 to 204 are performed before step 101:

step 201, receiving a fourth input of a user to the target object;

fig. 5 shows icons of two applications in the desktop interface, respectively icon 51 of APP1, icon 52 of APPs 2, e.g. the user wants to hide icon 52 of APP2, the icon 52 of APP2 in fig. 5 can be slid in the direction of the arrow sliding shown in fig. 5, so that a fourth input to the target object, here icon 52 of APP2, is received.

Wherein the transparency of each icon in the desktop is the same, i.e. both 0% transparency, i.e. both opacity, before the transparency adjustment is made to the icons in the desktop. In the embodiment of the present invention, the object, here, the icon of an application in the desktop is hidden, which may be implemented by transparency. As shown in fig. 5, the transparency of the icon 51 is 0%. The transparency of the icon 52 is also 0% before step 201.

Step 202, responding to the fourth input, and adjusting the target object from the first transparency to the second transparency;

For example, as shown in fig. 5, by sliding the icon up and down in the longitudinal direction of the electronic device, the transparency of the icon can be adjusted.

Then after receiving this fourth input, an adjustment of the transparency can be made to the icon of APP2 to be hidden in the desktop, for example here from 0% transparency (i.e. first transparency) to 70% transparency (i.e. second transparency), without requiring that the hidden icon of APP1 is still 0% transparency in the original state.

The step 202 is to make the transparency of the first object and the target object different.

Step 203, receiving a fifth input that a user drags the target object to a preset range of the first object;

after adjusting the transparency, as shown in fig. 5, the icon 52 may be dragged to within a preset range of the icon 51, e.g., above, so that the fifth input may be received.

And step 204, in response to the fifth input, establishing fingerprint information corresponding to the first object and the fifth input, third transparency of the first object, second transparency and a second association relationship between the target objects, and hiding the target objects.

Wherein an association between APP1 and APP2 may be established in response to the fifth input, and the association is also associated with fingerprint information of the fifth input; further, since the association is realized by adjusting the transparency, the association here is also associated with the third transparency (here, 0% transparency) of the icon of APP1 and the second transparency (here, 70% transparency) of the icon of APP2 (specifically, the second association of APP1-0% transparency to APP2-70% transparency to the fifth input fingerprint information).

The transparency of the icon 52 of APP2 is higher than that of the icon 51 of APP1, so that the icon 52 of APP2 with lower transparency (i.e. the target object here) can be hidden, and the desktop interface shown in fig. 4C is presented, so that the original desktop interface displays two icons, namely, the icon 51 and the icon 52 shown in fig. 5, and only the icon 41 (51) of APP1 shown in fig. 4C is displayed.

Although the example shown in fig. 5 is described as hiding the object having high transparency from the two objects. However, in other embodiments, the object with low transparency may be hidden, and before the fourth input for adjusting transparency is triggered, the first transparency of the target object may be other than 0%, and the size relationship between the first transparency and the second transparency is not limited, as long as the two are different.

For example, before the fourth input is received, the transparency of the icon 51 is 80%, the transparency of the icon 52 is 10%, and by this fourth input, the transparency of the icon 52 is increased from 10% transparency to 70% transparency, for example, if the predetermined hiding condition is hiding the object with higher transparency, then after the fifth input is received, the icon 51 with higher transparency is hidden.

Alternatively, in any of the above embodiments, the target object may be marked as a hidden state after being hidden.

Furthermore, in this embodiment, the preset input features described in step 102 may include: the fingerprint information corresponding to the first input is a second preset fingerprint, and the first input is a sliding input;

the second preset fingerprint is the fingerprint information of the fifth input in the second association relationship.

That is, after hiding the target object (here, the icon 52 of APP 2) by the method of the present embodiment, the user may perform sliding input on the icon 51 of APP1 associated with the APP2, and trigger the sliding input by using the same fingerprint information (i.e., the second preset fingerprint information) as when the second association is established, so that the hidden icon 52 of APP2 may be displayed. It should be noted, however, that the display is only that the user with authority displays the target object hidden before, but other users cannot display the hidden target object, so the target object is still marked as a hidden state.

In the embodiment of the invention, the transparency of the target object can be adjusted by receiving the fourth input to the target object, and then the second association relationship between the fingerprint information corresponding to the first object and the fifth input, the target object and the transparency of the two objects can be established and the target object is hidden by receiving the fifth input dragging the target object to the preset range of the first object. When the hidden target object needs to be restored to be displayed, the user can perform sliding input on the first object related to the target object and perform the sliding input by adopting the fingerprint information used in the hiding process, so that the input characteristics of the sliding input are preset input characteristics, the target object in the hiding state can be displayed, the object hiding is realized, the hidden object can be restored to be displayed, the fingerprint information adopted in the hiding and restoring display must be the same, the hiding and restoring display of the same object by the same user can be ensured, and the safety control of the target object is ensured. One object of two objects with different transparency is hidden by adjusting the transparency of the object, so that the hiding and displaying controllability of the object is stronger. And by enabling the transparency of the two objects to be different and dragging one object to the preset range content of the other object, hiding of one object can be achieved, and conflicts with other sequences of the objects in the conventional technology are reduced.

Optionally, when the first object is associated with N target objects, N is an integer greater than 1;

then the transparency of the N target objects may be obtained while the step of displaying the target objects is performed; and selecting a second target object from the N target objects to display based on the sliding direction of the first input and the transparency of the N target objects.

That is, the first object associates a plurality of target objects, and the target objects are all hidden, i.e. in a hidden state, so that when the target objects are displayed, the transparency of each target object can be obtained; and then selecting one object from the N target objects according to the sliding direction of the first input and the transparency of the N target objects, and displaying the selected object as a second target object. When the second target object is displayed, the displayed first object may be switched to the second target object.

Note that, the sliding direction of the first input here is a sliding direction different from the transparency of the adjustment object, for example, in the example of fig. 5, the sliding direction of the adjustment transparency is the length direction of the screen of the electronic device, and the sliding direction of the first input here is the width direction of the screen of the electronic device.

In the embodiment of the invention, when at least two target objects are associated with the first object, which target object in the N target objects is used as the second target object to be displayed can be determined according to the sliding direction of the first object and the transparency of each target object, and after the transparency of each object is memorized by a user, the user knows how to slide the first object to display the second target object, so that the learning cost is lower for the user.

Alternatively, when the step of selecting the second target object display from the N target objects based on the sliding direction of the first input and the transparency of the N target objects is performed, the step may be implemented by:

selecting a target object with higher transparency than the first object from the N target objects as a second target object under the condition that the sliding direction of the first input is the first direction;

in one example, as shown in fig. 6, the first object is APP1, and the N target objects associated with the first object include two target objects, APP2 and APP3, respectively.

Fig. 6 shows an icon 61 of APP1, and in order to display an icon of an application associated with APP1 and hidden, the user may slide the icon 61 to the left, for example, the pre-established association relationship is APP1-0% transparency associated with: APP2-70% transparency-fingerprint 1, APP3-80% transparency-fingerprint 2. Here, if the first direction is sliding leftwards, the two target objects are APP2 and APP3 respectively, and it is obvious that the transparency ranks of the three APPs (APP 1, APP2, APP 3) are 0%, 70%, 80% in this order, so APP2 which is arranged after 0% and has a transparency higher than the transparency of APP1 and corresponds to 70% transparency can be selected as the second target object, and therefore, by sliding the icon 61 leftwards, the left view in fig. 6 is switched to the middle view, so that the position where the icon 61 is displayed as the icon 62;

Similarly, when the first input is triggered again on icon 61, icon 63 (corresponding to APP 3) may be displayed.

For example, by default, the left-hand slide indicates icons of applications that are displayed in order of decreasing transparency.

Of course, for example, for the APP2 icon 62 after switching display, the transparency displayed may be, for example, 70% of the actual transparency, or may be, for example, 0% of the default transparency of the system; the icon for APP3 is displayed in a similar manner.

And selecting a target object with lower transparency than the first object from the N target objects as a second target object under the condition that the sliding direction of the first input is a second direction.

For example, when the sliding direction is rightward sliding, for example, when the first object is the icon 62 in fig. 6, the displayed icon 62 may be switched to the icon 61 with lower transparency by sliding the icon 62 rightward.

The left sliding and the right sliding are both width directions of a screen of the electronic device, the first direction is left sliding, and the second direction is right sliding.

For example, by default, the right slide indicates icons of applications that are displayed in order of transparency from higher to lower.

In order to distinguish the sliding direction of the sliding input for adjusting the transparency, the sliding in the left-right direction can be used as a trigger mode for restoring the display of the hidden object.

In the embodiment of the invention, when the hidden target object needs to be operated and restored to be displayed, the sliding input in the first direction or the sliding input in the second direction for the first application associated with the target object can be received to switch and display the position of the first object as the next target object with higher or lower transparency, so that the hidden target object can be restored to be displayed conveniently. In addition, compared with the technical scheme of restoring the display of the hidden object by adopting the floating window mode of the embodiment, the scheme of the embodiment of the invention can restore the display of the corresponding hidden object only by sliding the displayed object in the first direction or the second direction, thus being convenient for a user to memorize and slide for several times, being capable of displaying the target object to be displayed and having lower learning cost for the user.

Optionally, after step 102, the method according to an embodiment of the present invention may also adjust the transparency of the target object.

The method comprises the following steps: and receiving a second sliding input of an icon in the desktop, and if the second sliding direction of the second sliding input is a preset direction (here, the length direction of the screen of the electronic equipment) under the condition that fingerprint information corresponding to the second sliding input is a preset fingerprint, responding to the second sliding input, and adjusting the transparency of the icon according to the second sliding direction.

Optionally, before receiving the second sliding input, the icon may be in an editing state by long pressing on the icon to be hidden, so that when the icon in the editing state is slid in the up-down direction, a corresponding sliding input may be received, so as to adjust the transparency of the icon.

In adjusting the transparency, the specific transparency increase and decrease may be positively correlated with the sliding displacement and/or sliding speed, and will not be described here.

When the icon of APP2 is hidden by means of step 103, the icons of APP1 and APP2 are not superimposed and displayed at the position of the icon of APP1, but the icon of APP2 is not displayed on the desktop, but information of the transparency of the icon, for example, 70% is recorded on APP2 in the background.

Therefore, the transparency-adjusted fingerprint can be used for realizing the hiding operation of the transparency-adjusted icon, and the authority control of icon hiding can be realized.

Optionally, by adjusting the transparency of the object, the object in the hidden state can be restored to the display state, and the corresponding association relationship is released. Specifically, after step 102, the method according to an embodiment of the present invention may further include: receiving a sixth input of a user to the target object; and responding to the sixth input, adjusting the target object from the second transparency to the first transparency, and releasing the second association relation.

As shown in fig. 7, for example, the icon 63 of the target object APP3 may be slid in the screen length direction in the left diagram of fig. 7, for example, the icon 63 may be slid downward in the arrow sliding direction shown in fig. 7, the sixth input may be received, and then the transparency of the icon 63 may be reduced from 80% transparency to 0% transparency, so that the association relationship between APP3 and APP1 corresponding to the icon 63 may be released. The first transparency here is the transparency before the target object is switched from the display state to the hidden state.

In addition, as shown in the right diagram of fig. 7, the icon 63 of APP3 may also be displayed separately in the desktop. Whereas in the left-hand diagram of fig. 7 the position of the icon 63 displaying the APP3 is restored to the position of the icon 61 displaying the first object, i.e. APP1, the position of the icon 63 of APP3, which is displayed separately, is different from the position of the icon 61 of APP 1.

According to the embodiment of the invention, the aim of restoring the hidden target object to the display state can be achieved by adjusting the transparency of the target object to the transparency before hiding, so that the hidden target object can be independently displayed, and the convenience and safety of restoring operation of the hidden object are improved.

By means of the technical scheme, the object hiding operation is easy to achieve, and by means of the preset fingerprints, the object hiding authority is limited, so that the access privacy of the object is improved, the number of displayed objects is reduced through effective object hiding, and the object arrangement is facilitated. Moreover, under the condition that a plurality of objects are distributed, the probability of the objects being touched by mistake is low, the privacy of the hidden objects is improved, and the objects are hidden by associating the objects, so that the user operation is easier.

Optionally, when the first object is an object of the first application program and the target object is an object of the second application program, the method according to the embodiment of the present invention may further include:

receiving a request sent by the first application program to access the second application program;

and authorizing access by the first application to the second application in the event that the object associated with the first object includes a target object.

For example, the first application program is APP1, the application associated with APP1 includes APP2 and APP3, then during running APP1, if some business operations of APP1 require the user to authorize APP1 to access APP2 (for example, login information of APP2 is used to login APP 2), then a request sent by APP1 to access APP2 may be received, then obviously the candidate application includes APP2, that is, APP1 and APP2 have an association relationship in advance, so APP1 does not need to prompt the user to allow the user to authorize APP1 to login APP2 according to the conventional method, but directly respond to the request, grant the APP1 to allow access to APP2, for example, obtain user login information of APP2 to login APP2.

In the embodiment of the invention, after the association relation is established for different application programs, the method is equivalent to mutually accessing authorization for two applications with association, so that when one application requests to access another application, a user does not need to jump to the corresponding other application interface to authorize, for example, APP2 is required to authorize and log in the use process of APP1, the user is not required to be prompted to provide authorization, and the authorization can be directly obtained under the condition that the association exists according to whether the two applications are associated. The authorization links between applications are reduced, and the operation of a user is simplified.

In addition, as described above, the icon in any one embodiment herein may be an icon of a single application, or may be a folder icon including a plurality of applications, so by adopting the technical solution of any one embodiment of the present invention, the operations of hiding a group of applications and restoring the display after hiding, and restoring from the hiding state to the display state separately displayed in the desktop may also be implemented.

For the scheme of setting transparency to hide icons, when the operated target object is a folder icon, when the transparency of the target icon is adjusted, each application icon in the folder icon is subjected to transparency adjustment, and the adjusted transparency is the same; when the displayed icon is slid left and right to switch to display the hidden icon, for example, to display a folder icon, a folder including a plurality of application icons marked with hidden states is directly displayed. The procedure of operating the folder icon in the method of other embodiments is similar to the procedure of operating the icon of the single application as exemplified above, and the description thereof will be omitted herein.
