Detailed Description

The terminal applications are increasingly functional, and users can converse with other users through the applications, and process various transactions (matters) through the associated applications, and the like. According to the method and the device, when the conversation is carried out, the application interface of the associated application can be quickly checked to carry out transaction processing and the like, the conversation window does not need to be quitted, and the corresponding application interface is searched and checked.

For example, in some embodiments, the terminal may call out an application panel when receiving an application panel start instruction input for the session window, so as to quickly view an associated application in the application panel, may display an application interface corresponding to a selected application when receiving a selection instruction for the application in the application panel, and may further add an interface tag to the application interface, so as to enable the application interface to be quickly hidden or redisplayed through the interface tag. Therefore, the viewing efficiency of the application interface is improved, the user time is saved, and the user experience is enhanced. The following description is made in conjunction with the schema framework.

Please refer to fig. 1, which is a schematic diagram of a scheme architecture provided in an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 1, the overall scheme has three roles: session, application panel, application (i.e., application in application panel). The application panel can be used as a middle person to bind the session and the application, so that the session capability is expanded, and related transactions and flows of the associated application can be processed during chatting. It is understood that the application panel can also be called other names, such as chat-while-viewing panel, application page, etc., and the application is not limited thereto.

In some embodiments, in a session window interface of a target application, when an application panel starting instruction input for the session window is received, an application panel associated with the target application can be called out to quickly view an associated application in the application panel. For example, please refer to fig. 2 in combination with fig. 1, which is a schematic flow chart of opening an application panel according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 2, in the conversation window, that is, while the user is conducting a conversation, an input start instruction, such as a gesture instruction, a click instruction (screen click instruction, key click instruction, etc.), and the like, may be received to trigger an application panel calling out information including one or more applications, and the application panel is displayed. Optionally, after entering the application panel, if a return instruction indicating to return to the session is received, the session window may be quickly returned. The return instruction may be a gesture instruction, a click instruction, or the like, and corresponds to the start instruction, and if the start instruction is a gesture instruction, the return instruction may also be a gesture instruction, and if the start instruction is a click instruction, the return instruction may also be a click instruction.

It is understood that in other alternative embodiments, the conversation window may also be referred to as a conversation, a conversation interface, a chat window, a conversation interface, etc., and the application is not limited thereto.

Optionally, when a selection instruction for an application in the application panel is received, an application interface corresponding to the selected application may be displayed. Please refer to fig. 3, which is a schematic view illustrating an opening of an application interface according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 3, after the application panel is called and displayed, the application interface corresponding to the application in the application panel can be viewed, that is, the application is selected and opened from the application panel, and the application interface is quickly accessed without exiting the session window and then searching the corresponding application interface, so that the searching and opening efficiency of the application interface is improved. For example, in the conversation window, documents and the like can be quickly viewed, so that the users can chat and view the documents without exiting the conversation window and then view the documents in the document interface. Further optionally, as shown in fig. 3, an interface label may be added to the application interface, so that the application interface may be quickly exited through the interface label, hidden, and re-entered into the application through the interface label to re-display the application interface. Therefore, chatting and watching can be realized at the mobile terminal, the checking efficiency of the application interface is improved, the transaction processing time of the user is saved, and the user experience is enhanced.

The application in the application panel can be set by a user in a user-defined mode, namely, the operation of the user-defined application panel is supported, for example, the application panel can be edited to adjust the application in the application panel, so that the expansion degree of the panel is improved, the high definition of the application is realized, and the user experience is further enhanced.

It can be understood that the technical solution of the present application can be specifically applied to a terminal (application interface control device, client). Optionally, the terminal may include a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a computer, and the like, which is not limited in this application. It is understood that in other embodiments, the terminal may also be referred to by other names, such as intelligent terminal, user device, user terminal, etc., to name but a few.

The embodiment of the application discloses an application interface control method, an application interface control device, a terminal and a medium, and is beneficial to improving the viewing efficiency of an application interface. The details are described below.

Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a flowchart illustrating an application interface control method according to an embodiment of the present application, where the application interface control method is applicable to the terminal. As shown in fig. 4, the application interface control method of the present embodiment may include the following steps:

401. and displaying a session window of the target application.

Alternatively, the target application may be any application that can be conversed, such as an instant messaging application. Further optionally, the session window may be a session window between two users, or may be a session window between multiple (more than two) users, i.e. a group chat window.

402. And when an application panel starting instruction input aiming at the conversation window is received, presenting an application panel associated with the target application.

Wherein the application panel may include information for one or more applications (i.e., the first application). Optionally, the information of the first application may include an identifier of the first application, such as an application ID, and/or an open path of the application interface, such as an open path of the application interface corresponding to the first application. Optionally, the application interface corresponding to the application may be a primary interface of the application, or may be a secondary interface or another interface under the application. Therefore, the application interface corresponding to the first application can be opened (started and started) quickly according to the information of the first application, and the viewing efficiency of the application interface is improved.

Optionally, the application panel start instruction may be a gesture instruction, a click instruction, a touch instruction, or the like. The click command may include a single click command, a double click command, and the like.

For example, in a possible embodiment, the application panel launch instruction may be a gesture instruction. When the application panel associated with the target application is displayed, when an application panel starting instruction input for the session window is received, such as a gesture instruction, a gesture parameter corresponding to the gesture instruction may be acquired, and when it is detected that the gesture parameter satisfies an application panel starting condition, the application panel associated with the target application is called out according to the acquired gesture parameter.

It will be appreciated that the gesture parameters change as the user performs the gesture. Therefore, when the application panel associated with the target application is called out according to the gesture parameter, when it is detected that the gesture parameter meets the application panel starting condition, the application panel corresponding to the application panel starting instruction is started to be called out, the application panel is further called out according to (the change of) the gesture parameter (such as the increase of the sliding distance), and the size (area, size and the like) of the called-out application panel is matched with the gesture parameter, so that the application panel is gradually called out or displayed. Optionally, when it is detected that the gesture operation corresponding to the gesture parameter is ended and the gesture parameter meets a complete call-out condition, the application panel is completely called out, that is, the whole application panel is displayed. In this application, the application panel starting condition and the complete exhalation condition may be preset, and this application is not limited.

It is to be understood that the above-mentioned application panel starting condition and/or complete outgoing call condition may be set according to the information of the conversation window, that is, the application panel starting condition and/or complete outgoing call condition corresponding to different conversation windows may be the same or different. Alternatively, the information of the session window may include category information, flag information, and the like. For example, for a session window with a higher frequency of chatting functions (higher than a frequency threshold), a mark may be made, and for such marked session window, the application panel start condition and/or the full call-out condition may be distinguished from other session windows, for example, the application panel start condition and/or the full call-out condition may be set as an application panel start condition and/or a full call-out condition that is easy for other session windows, so as to facilitate quick start and display of the application panel. As another example, for a conversation window between users in the work group, for such a conversation window, due to a high possibility of processing transactions, the application panel start condition and/or the full call-out condition thereof may be set to be an application panel start condition and/or a full call-out condition that is easy for other conversation windows, so as to facilitate quick start, presentation, and the like of the application panel, which are not listed here.

Optionally, the gesture parameters may include a slide parameter, which may include any one or more of: slide path, slide direction, slide angle, slide speed, slide distance, and the like. Wherein, the sliding path may refer to a path of gesture operation; the sliding direction may refer to sliding left, sliding right, sliding up, sliding down, sliding diagonally to the terminal display screen, etc.; the sliding angle may be used to indicate the sliding direction, for example, the sliding angle may be an angle of the sliding path relative to a horizontal line of the terminal display (e.g., a horizontal line corresponding to the left-right sliding direction, and a horizontal center line of the terminal display, etc.); the sliding speed may be a maximum speed, an average speed, or a minimum speed in the gesture operation, or the like; the swipe distance may be a straight-line distance between a start point and an end point of the gesture operation, or may be a distance of the entire swipe path, or the like.

For example, the gesture parameters include a start point position, an end point position (e.g., a position at the end of the gesture operation), a sliding direction, a sliding angle, a sliding speed, and a sliding distance. When the sliding direction is detected to be leftward, the sliding angle is smaller than or equal to 45 degrees, and the sliding speed is larger than the first speed threshold value, the application panel starting condition can be determined to be met, and the calling-out of the application panel can be started. Further, if the gesture operation is finished and the corresponding sliding distance is greater than the first distance threshold value when the gesture operation is finished, the application panel can be completely called out; otherwise, the user can return to the conversation window, quit or hide the application panel, or keep the application panel size at the end of the gesture operation for application panel display.

Optionally, when determining whether to completely exhale the application panel, the determination may be further made in conjunction with the sliding speed. For example, if the sliding speed (for example, the average sliding speed in the whole gesture operation process) corresponding to the gesture parameter at the end of the gesture operation is greater than the second speed threshold, and the sliding distance is greater than the second distance threshold, the application panel may be completely called out; and if the sliding speed corresponding to the gesture parameters is smaller than the second speed threshold value and the sliding distance is larger than a third distance threshold value when the gesture operation is finished, the application panel can be completely called out. Wherein the third distance threshold is greater than the second distance threshold. That is, when the sliding speed of the sliding operation for opening the application panel is high, the user can confirm that the application panel is to be opened by sliding a small distance, and can completely call out the application panel; when the sliding speed of the sliding operation is low, the application panel needs to be slid relatively for a larger distance to confirm that the application panel is required to be opened, so that misoperation of a user is avoided, the flexibility and the reliability of application panel display are improved, and the user experience is further improved.

As another example, in a possible implementation, the gesture command may be a click command, such as a button click command. That is, the gesture call-out panel can be changed into a button call-out panel, so that the effect of chatting and watching is achieved.

As another example, in a possible implementation, the gesture instruction may be a touch instruction, such as a touch instruction based on a specific location of the display screen. That is, the gesture calling-out panel can be changed into a touch operation calling-out panel through a specific position, so that the effect of chatting and watching is achieved.

In a possible implementation mode, when the terminal calls out the application panel, the application panel can be called out by using system animation, so that the display effect is improved, and the user experience is enhanced. Or, the system animation call-out panel can be reused when the specific starting mode of the application panel is triggered, such as the call-out application panel is triggered by clicking a command, so that the flexibility of the call-out of the panel is improved.

403. When a selection instruction of a second application in the application panel is received, an application interface corresponding to the second application is displayed.

Wherein the second application may be any one of the one or more first applications. Optionally, the application interface corresponding to the application may be an initial interface of the application, a transaction interface or other interface under the application, or the like.

In some embodiments, if the selected second application is multiple, for example, multiple first applications are simultaneously selected, application interfaces corresponding to the multiple second applications may also be displayed in a split screen manner.

404. And adding an interface label for the application interface, and controlling to hide or redisplay the application interface by processing the interface label.

For example, in some embodiments, when a first gesture instruction is detected for the interface tab and the application interface is in the exposed state, the application interface may be controlled to be hidden; when a second gesture command for the interface tag is detected and the application interface is in a hidden state, the application interface can be controlled to be displayed again. The first gesture instruction and the second gesture instruction may be corresponding gesture instructions, for example, when the first gesture instruction is a gesture instruction of sliding left, the second gesture instruction is a gesture instruction of sliding right; for another example, when the first gesture command is a gesture command for sliding to the right, the second gesture command is a gesture command for sliding to the left, and so on, which are not listed here.

It is understood that, in the present application, there is no limitation on the presentation form of the interface tag, such as a handle, a bookmark, an image matched with the application interface, a logo, and the like, and the interface tag can be used to identify the application interface.

In the application, the terminal can call the application panel associated with the target application when receiving an application panel starting instruction input by the session window, and then display the application interface corresponding to the selected application when receiving a selection instruction of the application in the application panel, and can add an interface label to the application interface to quickly control the hiding or redisplaying of the application interface through the interface label, thereby being beneficial to improving the viewing efficiency of the application interface.

In some embodiments, a function switch may be further provided for turning on or off the chat-while-watching function, and the method may be performed in a state where the chat-while-watching function is turned on. Or, the function of chatting and watching can be opened for the users or enterprises on the white list by configuring the white list. Optionally, the time, duration, and/or number of times the user or business uses the chat-while-look function, etc. may also be configured.

In some embodiments, the terminal may further receive an editing instruction for the application panel, and further update the application panel according to the editing instruction, so as to implement the user-defined setting of the application panel. Optionally, the editing instruction may be used to add information of the first application in the application panel, delete information of the first application in the application panel, change a position of the information of the first application in the application panel, and the like, where the position may include a presentation position and/or an arrangement order, and the like. That is to say, in the application, the content of the application panel can be customized, and the addition, deletion, viewing, sequencing and the like are supported in the panel, so that the user can customize the application conveniently. The application panel provides high self-definition capability, so that the flexibility of setting of the application panel is improved, for example, a user can put the application used at high frequency into the panel, the pertinence is strong, the user can conveniently set according to the application using condition of the user, and the user experience is enhanced.

In some embodiments, after the application interface corresponding to the second application is exposed, an opening path from the application panel to the application interface may also be generated, and the opening path is stored. Optionally, when the application panel starting instruction input for the session window is received again, the application panel including the open path may be called. For example, the second application is a document application, the primary interface after the document application is selected comprises a plurality of documents, and further can select an opened document, the document can be opened after an opening instruction for the document is received, the document interface is displayed, the document interface can be regarded as a secondary interface, and therefore an opening path from an application panel to the document interface can be stored. Alternatively, when there is an open path, the application panel may display only the open path, and may display the open path and applications at the same time. Further optionally, the open path displayed by the application panel may be a path of an application interface opened last M times, or may be an open path of an application interface opened within a week from the current system time for a specified period of time, so as to ensure timeliness of the open path. Wherein M is an integer greater than 0. Further optionally, information of the application storing the open path, such as an application identifier, an application type, and the like, may also be preset, so that the application panel only displays the open path corresponding to the interface of the specific application, and is relatively strong in pertinence, and thus, saving of storage overhead is facilitated.

For example, please refer to fig. 5, which is a schematic diagram of an interface for opening an application panel according to an embodiment of the present application. Taking the gesture instruction as an example, the product performance of dragging the call-out application panel by the gesture in the session may be that the call-out panel is dragged by the gesture on the right side (i.e., sliding from right to left, and the sliding direction is left), as shown in fig. 5, a sliding gesture is added to a Window of a target application such as a WeChat session, and when the gesture meets the starting condition of the application panel, the call-out panel is started. Furthermore, when the gesture is loosened, the gesture position is judged, and if the position meets the requirement of complete calling, the whole application panel is displayed, and the application is provided in the application panel and used by a user. For example, the application panel may include information of a plurality of applications, such as within the panel, applications may be associated by application id, as shown in (a) of fig. 6; for another example, the application panel may further include an open path corresponding to the application interface that has been opened, as shown in fig. 6 (b).

Further, please refer to fig. 7, which is a schematic interface diagram of an editing application panel according to an embodiment of the present application. In fig. 6, the application panel may display a default panel of system settings, may support user-defined settings, and support editing applications, application sequences, and the like appearing in the application panel within the application panel, for example, the editing mark or "+" in the upper right corner may be clicked to edit the application panel, so as to display information of commonly used applications on the application panel. As shown in fig. 7 (a), deleting application information in the application panel, adding application information in the application panel, and the like, adjusting the arrangement order of the applications, and the like may be implemented in the editing interface, and after the completion of the adjustment is determined, a confirmation key may be clicked, for example, when a confirmation instruction triggered by clicking a square root in the upper left corner in (a) is received, the completion of the editing may be confirmed, and the information of the application panel may be updated. For example, it is assumed that the application panel obtained after editing is as shown in fig. 7 (b).

In some embodiments, the user can also customize the panel starting mode, including whether to start based on a gesture or a click command or a touch command; and/or, the starting condition of the application panel can be customized; and/or, the manner of exhalation of the application panel can also be customized, such as can include from what location the exhalation was made (right side exhalation, left side exhalation, upper boundary exhalation, etc.). Alternatively, the information of the applications included in the application panel called out at different locations may be different, thereby enabling a quick view of the applications in the application panel in connection with the calling out location.

It will be appreciated that in some embodiments, the application panel may be displayed in a split screen relationship with the session window when the application panel is presented. For example, the conversation window occupies the left side of the display screen, and the application panel occupies the right side of the display screen; as another example, the conversation window may occupy the top side of the display, the application panel may occupy the bottom side of the display, and so on, which are not listed here.

Please refer to fig. 8, which is a schematic interface diagram of opening an application interface according to an embodiment of the present application. Assuming that the application panel includes a to-do (the number of to-do items can be displayed), a micro-document, and a micro-disk, as shown in fig. 8 (a), the user can enter the application interface corresponding to the micro-document by selecting to open the micro-document, as shown in fig. 8 (b). After using the application in the panel of the session, an interface label appears in the application interface, such as a black handle (shown as the left border of the figure) as shown in (b), prompting the chat-while-watching function currently being used in the panel of the session. The black handle supports dragging, indicating that the application is minimized, and can be used by calling the application at any time while chatting. When the application exits through the handle, the memory cache is carried out on the application state in the panel, and the panel Window is hidden, namely, the opened application interface is hidden. When the panel is called out through the handle again, the application state in the panel is read, the application is recovered, and the corresponding application is called out, namely the application interface is displayed again. As shown in fig. 9 (a), the application interface can be gradually hidden, for example, by dragging the handle to the right; as shown in fig. 9 (b), the application interface is completely hidden, returning to the original session window.

In some embodiments, the application interface may also be shared with the opposing (opposite) user of the session window (if it is a multi-user chat window, the shared user may be specified from the multi-user chat window, or all of the remaining users may be designated as shared users), or the local user may view the application interface shared by the opposing user. When a sharing instruction for the application interface is received, the application interface can be shared to an opposite terminal session window of the session window; or, an application interface shared by the opposite-end session window may be acquired, and a sharing tag may be added to the shared application interface, so as to control the display or hide of the shared application interface through the sharing tag. The sharing tab may be used to identify an application interface that is currently being shared open.

Optionally, when the shared application interface is in the display state, the interface contents displayed by the session window and the opposite-end session window are synchronized. That is to say, when the application interface is shared, the application interface can be synchronously displayed, so that the viewing efficiency is improved, the communication efficiency is improved, and the user experience is enhanced.

Therefore, the application interface control scheme of the application can slide out of the interaction mode of the right panel in the conversation, the right panel supports viewing and operating the application, and the mobile terminal can be viewed while chatting. For example, when a conversation window chats, the calling-out panel is slid on the right side, and related information such as 'schedule' can be viewed in the panel without exiting the conversation to the 'schedule' interface. Therefore, the universal session capability is expanded, the communication between the session capability and the application capabilities such as a workbench is realized, the expansion degree is improved, the operation is simple, and the user experience is enhanced.

In some embodiments, the terminal may detect whether panel control information is present in the session information in the session window, and display the application panel when detecting that the panel control information is present in the session information and the panel control information is used to control the display of the application panel. The panel control information can be used to control whether to display the application panel, such as controlling to display the application panel, or controlling to quit or hide the application panel, etc.

Optionally, the session information may refer to the current session information, for example, all session information of the current session information or session information sent by an opposite-end user corresponding to the session window. The opposite-end user can be one or more users, for example, when the conversation window is a multi-person chat window, the number of the opposite-end users can be more than one; or, when the session window is a multi-user chat window, the opposite-end user may also be one, for example, the opposite-end user is a creator of the multi-user chat window or another user specified by the creator, and acts as a manager, so as to reduce the session information detection overhead while implementing automatic control of the application panel, and help to reduce the power consumption of the terminal. Further optionally, the session information may include any one or more of the following forms of information: voice information, text information, picture information, video information, and the like.

It is understood that the panel control information may be the session record itself in the session information, or may be determined according to the session record. That is, the session information may explicitly or implicitly indicate panel control information.

For example, when detecting the session information of "open application panel" sent by the opposite-end user of the session window, the session information of "open application panel" can be used as panel control information for controlling the display of the application panel, and then the application panel can be called.

For another example, when detecting the session information of "closing the application panel" sent by the opposite-end user of the session window, the session information of "closing the application panel" can be used as panel control information for controlling exiting of the application panel, and further the application panel can be exited.

That is, the present application may monitor the chat messages in the session window, such as the chat messages of all users monitoring the session window, or the chat messages sent by the opposite end user (i.e., other objects) in the chat messages, and analyze whether the content of the chat messages includes content for the control panel, i.e., whether panel control information is included. If the panel control information used for the control panel display is included, the application panel can be automatically called; if panel control information for controlling panel exit or hiding is included, the application panel can be automatically exited or hidden; if no panel control information is included, listening/detecting current session information may continue.

In some embodiments, after the application panel is presented, the terminal may further detect whether application information appears in the session information in the session window, and mark information of a first application matching the application information when the application information appears in the session information and the information of the first application matching the application information exists in the application panel. By marking the applications which may need to be opened by the user, the related applications can be conveniently and quickly determined and opened, the information viewing efficiency is improved, and the user experience is enhanced. Optionally, the session information may refer to session information after the panel control information (including the panel control information), or alternatively, the session information sent by the end user after the panel control information, so as to reduce the detection overhead.

Optionally, the application information may include or be used to indicate application information such as application name, application type, and the like. Further, whether information (matching information for short) matching with the application information exists in the application panel can be detected, the information in the application panel is marked during matching, for example, the matching information is marked by indicating the matching information through a dynamic arrow, the matching information is marked by amplifying, the arrangement position of the matching information is changed to be the forefront and quit displaying for marking, the matching information is marked by other protruding marking modes, and the like. The method for marking the matching information is not limited in the present application.

For example, assuming that the session information of "open micro document" sent by the opposite user of the session window is detected, that is, the application information "micro document" is detected and matched to the "micro document" with the same application name in the application panel, the "micro document" in the application panel may be marked, for example, in the form of an arrow, as shown in (a) in fig. 10, so that the user can quickly determine the location of the application to be opened.

For another example, suppose that when the session information of "open file" sent by the opposite-end user of the session window is detected, that is, the application information "file" is detected, and a "micro document", "file disk", and "open path 1" matched with the application type are matched in the application panel, where "open path 1" is a path corresponding to a file interface. The "micro document", "file tray", "open path 1" in the application panel may be marked, such as in a color marking manner, as shown in fig. 10 (b), so that the user can quickly determine the location of the application that may be opened.

That is, after the application panel calls out, the terminal may continue to detect session information, such as detecting keywords in other user chat information, by detecting whether there is a match with the current application information in the panel, and if so, marking for these applications. Therefore, the calling and application information marks corresponding to the panel can be realized by detecting the content of the chat information, the information checking efficiency is improved, and the user experience is enhanced. In addition, the effect of remote control can be achieved based on the mode.

In some embodiments, when the application panel is displayed, as described above, the application panel may be displayed in a full screen mode or in a split screen mode, where the application panel and the session window are displayed according to the panel control information.

In some embodiments, after the presentation of the application interface corresponding to the second application, it may further be detected whether new session information exists in the session window, and when it is detected that new session information exists in the session window, the session window and the application interface are controlled to be presented in a split screen manner.

Optionally, when performing split-screen display, the split-screen ratio between the session window and the application interface may be determined according to the information amount of the new session information, and then the split-screen display between the session window and the application interface is controlled according to the split-screen ratio.

Optionally, when the split-screen display is performed, the split-screen mode between the session window and the application interface may be determined according to the information amount of the new session information, and the split-screen display between the session window and the application interface is controlled according to the split-screen mode. The split screen mode may include up-down split screen or left-right split screen, etc. For example, when the amount of information is large (e.g., greater than a threshold), a left-right split screen manner may be adopted; when the information amount is small (for example, smaller than the threshold), a vertical split screen mode can be adopted to further improve the display effect and enhance the user experience.

That is to say, the application can control the session window and the application interface to be displayed in a split screen manner, so that the application interface can be checked, and meanwhile, unread session information can be known quickly. Moreover, when the application panel and the conversation window are controlled to be displayed in a split screen mode, the application interface displayed in a full screen mode can be converted into the split screen display mode of the conversation window by combining the information amount of the conversation window, so that convenience and intelligence of information checking are improved, and user experience is enhanced.

Optionally, the information amount of the new session information may refer to an information amount in a specified time period after the application interface is displayed, such as the number of times of information sent by the peer user in the initial one minute, or the size of the sent information. Further optionally, after the session window and the application interface are displayed in a split screen manner, the information content of new session information can be continuously detected, and the split screen ratio is adjusted according to the information content, so that the viewing effect is improved.

It can be understood that the larger the information amount is, the larger the size of the session window may be, or the display proportion occupied by the session window may be, for example, the corresponding relationship between the information amount and the size of the session window may be preset. When the information amount exceeds the information amount threshold, the size of the conversation window is not increased any more, that is, the maximum display size of the conversation window during split-screen display can be set, and/or the minimum display size of the application interface can be set. Thereby contributing to an enhancement of the display effect.
