The method may include the following steps.

In step 401, a target operation instruction is obtained, where the target operation instruction is used to indicate a touch operation with a start position in the second display area.

Alternatively, the touch operation may be a touch slide operation, a touch click operation, or a touch long-press operation, or the like.

In step 402, when the touch operation satisfies a preset condition, a target interface corresponding to the touch operation is obtained.

In step 403, the interface content displayed in the first display area is switched to the interface content of the target interface.

Optionally, the tags in the background application list are arranged according to the time sequence of the application programs corresponding to the tags entering the background; and the time length from the moment that the application program corresponding to the selected label enters the background to the current moment is positively correlated with the second transverse displacement.

Optionally, when the touch operation meets a preset condition, obtaining a target interface corresponding to the touch operation includes:

and acquiring the target interface according to the interface type.

Optionally, the interface type includes desktop or non-desktop;

the obtaining the target interface according to the interface type includes:

when the interface type is the desktop, acquiring the interface of the application program opened last time as the target interface;

To sum up, according to the scheme shown in the embodiment of the present disclosure, when a terminal acquires a target operation instruction corresponding to a touch operation whose starting position is located in a display area on a side of the terminal, if the touch operation meets a preset condition, a target interface corresponding to the touch operation may be directly acquired, and interface content of the target interface corresponding to the touch operation is switched to the display area on the front side or the back side of the terminal for display.

In one possible implementation scenario of the scheme shown in fig. 4, a user may switch to display application interfaces of background applications through a touch-and-slide operation, and may switch between application interfaces of two application programs that are recently started. The implementation of this handover procedure may be as shown in fig. 5 described below.

Fig. 5 is a flowchart illustrating an interface content switching method according to an exemplary embodiment, where as shown in fig. 5, the interface content switching method is applied to a terminal whose display screen includes a first display area and a second display area, the first display area is disposed on a front surface or a back surface of the terminal, and the second display area is disposed on a side surface of the terminal; for example, the terminal may be the terminal shown in any of fig. 1 to 3. The method may include the following steps.

In step 501, a target operation instruction is acquired, where the target operation instruction is used to indicate a touch operation with a start position in the second display area, and the touch operation is a touch slide operation.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the display screen of the terminal may be a touch screen, and when a user performs a touch operation on the touch screen, a corresponding operation instruction may be generated in a system of the terminal, where the operation instruction may include information such as an operation time, a touch point coordinate, and whether the operation is completed. When a certain touch operation is a touch slide operation performed from a second display area located on a side surface of the terminal (for example, a real touch point coordinate is located in the second display area), the terminal may acquire an operation instruction corresponding to the operation as a target operation instruction.

In step 502, the end position of the touch slide operation is acquired.

After the terminal acquires the target operation instruction, the end position of the terminal touch sliding operation may be acquired according to the target operation instruction, for example, coordinates of a touch end point included in the target operation instruction are acquired.

In step 503, it is determined whether the end position of the touch slide operation is within the first display area.

For example, the terminal may determine whether the coordinates of the touch end point acquired in step 502 are in a coordinate range corresponding to a first display area on the front or back of the terminal, if so, determine that the end position of the touch sliding operation is in the first display area, otherwise, determine that the end position of the touch sliding operation is not in the first display area.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, if the terminal determines that the ending position of the touch sliding operation is in the first display area, step 504 may be entered to end the current switching process.

In step 504, a first lateral displacement of the touch slide operation within the first display area is obtained.

Wherein the first lateral displacement is a vertical distance between an end position of the touch slide operation and a zone boundary, which is a connection line of the first display region and the second display region.

For example, please refer to fig. 6, which illustrates an operation trajectory diagram according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 6, the first display area of the terminal 60 is a front panel area, the second display area is a right side panel area, the operation trajectory of the touch slide operation from the right side panel area to the front panel area by the user is a trajectory 61, the area boundary is a connection line 62 between the right side panel area and the front panel area, and the length of a perpendicular line 64 from an end point 63 of the touch slide operation to the connection line 62 is the first lateral displacement.

The first distance threshold may be a distance threshold that is set in the terminal in advance by a developer; alternatively, the first distance threshold may be a distance threshold determined by the terminal itself.

For example, the terminal may obtain a vertical distance from the end position of the touch sliding operation to the bottom of the first display area, and obtain the first distance threshold according to the vertical distance from the end position to the bottom of the first display area; the first distance threshold is inversely related to a vertical distance between the end position and the bottom of the first display region.

For example, in fig. 6, a perpendicular line from the end point 63 of the touch slide operation to the bottom edge 65 of the front screen region is a perpendicular line 66, and the length of the perpendicular line 66 is the vertical distance from the end point to the bottom of the first display region. In the disclosed embodiment, the longer the length of the perpendicular 66, the smaller the value of the first distance threshold, and conversely, the shorter the length of the perpendicular 66, the larger the value of the first distance threshold.

In step 505, when the first lateral displacement is greater than a first distance threshold, determining whether an application program running in a background of the terminal exists; if yes, go to step 506, otherwise, go to step 507.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the content to be switched may also be different in different display or running states of the terminal, for example, when there is an application program running in the background of the terminal, the content to be switched is an application interface of the application program running in the background, and when there is no application program running in the background of the terminal, the content to be switched is other interface content.

Still referring to fig. 6, when the length of the vertical line 64 is greater than the preset first distance threshold, the switching of the interface content may be triggered. That is, when the touch sliding operation from the right side screen area to the end of the front side screen area is performed by the user to slide a certain distance to the left in the front side screen area, the switching of the interface content in the front side screen area is triggered.

In another possible implementation manner, when the terminal determines that the end position of the touch sliding operation is in the first display area, and it can be determined that the touch sliding operation meets a preset condition, at this time, interface content switching can be triggered; otherwise, if the terminal determines that the end position of the touch sliding operation is not in the first display area, it may be determined that the touch sliding operation does not satisfy the preset condition, at this time, interface content switching may not be triggered, and the switching process is ended.

That is, when the touch slide operation is an operation starting from the display area on the side of the terminal and ending in the front or back display area of the terminal, the touch slide operation may trigger the interface content in the display area where the ending position of the touch slide operation is located to be switched.

For example, when the user touches and slides from the side display area (which may be the display area on the left side or the display area on the right side) of the terminal into the front display area, the interface content in the front display area may be triggered to be switched.

For example, in fig. 2, when the user starts to perform the touch-and-slide operation from the left side display area 203 or the right side display area 204 and finishes performing the touch-and-slide operation in the front side display area 201, the interface content in the front side display area 201 may be directly triggered to be switched.

Or, if the display screen of the terminal includes a display area located on the back of the terminal, when the user touches and slides from the side display area of the terminal into the back display area, the interface content in the back display area may be triggered to be switched.

For example, in fig. 3, when the user starts to perform the touch-and-slide operation from the left side display area 203 or the right side display area 204 and finishes performing the touch-and-slide operation in the back side display area 202, the interface content in the back side display area 202 may be directly triggered to be switched.

In step 506, an interface of the application program that has entered the background last time among the application programs running in the background of the terminal is acquired as a target interface, and interface content displayed in the first display area is switched to interface content of the target interface.

Through the scheme shown in fig. 5, a user may implement switching between two recently started application programs through a touch sliding operation from the side display area to the front or back display area, for example, assuming that the application program currently running in the foreground of the terminal is application program 1, the application program recently running in the background of the terminal is application program 2, after the user performs a touch sliding operation from the side display area to the front display area, the terminal switches the application interface of application program 1 displayed in the front display area to the application interface of application program 2, and when the user performs a touch sliding operation from the side display area to the front display area again, the terminal switches the application interface of application program 2 displayed in the front display area to the application interface of application program 1.

In step 507, the interface type of the current display interface of the first display area is obtained.

Wherein the interface type includes desktop or non-desktop.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, when there is no application running in the background of the terminal, the interface type currently displayed in the first display area may also affect the interface content after switching.

In step 508, when the interface type is the desktop, the interface of the application program that was opened last time is acquired as the target interface, and the interface content displayed in the first display area is switched to the interface content of the target interface.

In this disclosure, when the currently displayed interface in the first display area is a desktop, if the touch sliding operation triggering the switching is received, the terminal may switch and display the application interface of the application program that was last opened but has finished running in the first display area.

In step 509, when the interface type is a non-desktop type, the desktop is acquired as the target interface, and the interface content displayed in the first display area is switched to the interface content of the target interface.

When the currently displayed interface of the first display area is not the desktop, for example, the currently displayed interface of the first display area is an application interface of an application program, or a negative screen of the display system, if the touch sliding operation triggering switching is received, the terminal may switch to display the desktop in the first display area.

To sum up, according to the scheme shown in the embodiment of the present disclosure, when the terminal acquires the target operation instruction corresponding to the touch sliding operation of which the start position is located in the display area on the side of the terminal, if the touch sliding operation meets the preset condition and the terminal runs an application program in the background, the application interface of the application program that has recently entered the background in the application program running in the terminal background can be switched and displayed in the first display area, and the user only needs to execute the touch sliding operation meeting the requirement once in the whole process, and does not need to execute multiple steps, so that the operation flow for switching the background application is greatly simplified, and the effect of improving the switching efficiency of the interface content is achieved.

In addition, according to the scheme disclosed by the embodiment of the disclosure, when the touch sliding operation meets the preset condition and the terminal background does not run the application program, the interface content in the first display area can be switched to the interface or the desktop of the application program which is opened last time, so that the effect of improving the switching efficiency of the interface content is achieved.

In the scheme shown in fig. 4, when the user touches the application interface of the sliding operation switching display background application, the application interface of any one application program in the application programs running in the background may also be switched and displayed. The implementation of this handover procedure may be as shown in fig. 7 described below.

Fig. 7 is a flowchart illustrating an interface content switching method according to an exemplary embodiment, where as shown in fig. 7, the interface content switching method is applied to a terminal whose display screen includes a first display area and a second display area, the first display area is disposed on a front surface or a back surface of the terminal, and the second display area is disposed on a side surface of the terminal; for example, the terminal may be the terminal shown in any of fig. 1 to 3. The method may include the following steps.

In step 701, a target operation instruction is acquired, where the target operation instruction is used to indicate a touch operation with a start position in the second display area, and the touch operation is a touch slide operation.

The execution process of this step may refer to the description in the embodiment shown in fig. 5, and is not described herein again.

In step 702, when a touch point of the touch sliding operation enters a first display area, determining whether an application program running in a terminal background exists; if yes, go to step 703, otherwise, go to step 709.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, in the process of executing the touch sliding operation, the terminal may obtain the coordinates of the touch point of the touch sliding operation in real time, and determine whether the coordinates of the touch point are in the first display area, and when it is determined that the touch point of the touch sliding operation enters the first display area, may further determine whether an application program running in a background of the terminal exists.

In step 703, a background application list is displayed, where the background application list includes tags corresponding to each application program running in the background of the terminal.

When the application programs running in the background exist in the terminal, the terminal can display a background application list in the first display area, wherein the background application list comprises marks corresponding to the application programs running in the background.

And the labels in the background application list are arranged according to the time sequence of the application programs corresponding to the labels entering the background. For example, in the background application list, the tags may be arranged in order from near to far according to the time when the corresponding application program enters the background, that is, the application program corresponding to the first tag in the background application list may be the application program that has recently entered the background, and so on, and the application program corresponding to the last tag is the application program that has entered the background earliest; or, in the background application list, the tags may be arranged in the order from far to near according to the time when the corresponding application program enters the background, that is, the application program corresponding to the first tag in the background application list may be the application program that enters the background earliest, and so on, the application program corresponding to the last tag is the application program that enters the background most recently.

Each label in the background application list can be displayed in the first display area in a horizontal row. For example, please refer to fig. 8, which illustrates a schematic diagram of a background application list display according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 8, the first display area is a front display area of the terminal, the labels in the background application list are arranged in a horizontal row from left to right (or from right to left) in the order in the list, and the labels are displayed in a stacked manner.

Alternatively, the tags in the background application list may be displayed in the first display area in a vertical row. For example, please refer to fig. 9, which illustrates a schematic diagram of another background application list display according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 9, the first display area is a front display area of the terminal, the labels in the background application list are arranged in a column from top to bottom (or from bottom to top) in the order in the list, and the labels are displayed in a stacked manner.

In step 704, a second lateral displacement of the touch slide operation within the first display area is obtained in real time.

Wherein the second lateral displacement is a real-time vertical distance between an end position of the touch slide operation and a zone boundary, and the zone boundary is a connecting line of the first display zone and the second display zone.

The difference from the first lateral displacement is that the second lateral displacement is a real-time distance from a touch point to a boundary of an area in the touch sliding operation process, and an acquisition mode of the second lateral displacement is similar to that of the first lateral displacement, and is not described herein again.

In step 705, the selected tag in the background application list is determined according to the second lateral shift.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, the user may select the tab in the background application list by the displacement size of the lateral movement in the first display area through the touch slide operation.

Optionally, a positive correlation is formed between a time length from a time when the application program corresponding to the selected tag enters the background to the current time and the second lateral displacement. That is to say, the larger the displacement of the lateral movement of the touch slide operation performed by the user in the first display area, the earlier the time when the application program corresponding to the selected tag enters the background, and correspondingly, the smaller the displacement of the lateral movement of the touch slide operation performed by the user in the first display area, the later the time when the application program corresponding to the selected tag enters the background.

In another possible implementation, a duration from the time when the application program corresponding to the selected tag enters the background to the current time is inversely related to the second lateral shift. That is to say, the larger the displacement of the lateral movement of the touch slide operation performed by the user in the first display area, the later the time when the application program corresponding to the selected tag enters the background, and correspondingly, the smaller the displacement of the lateral movement of the touch slide operation performed by the user in the first display area, the earlier the time when the application program corresponding to the selected tag enters the background.

For example, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, let the second lateral shift be x, the unit is a pixel, when 0 < x < 180, the selected tab is the first tab or the last tab in the background application list, when 180 < x < 360, the selected tab is the second tab or the penultimate tab in the background application list, when x > 360, as the value of x increases, the selected tab sequentially changes from the second tab to the third tab and the fourth tab, and so on; or, the selected label is changed from the last-but-one label to the last-but-one label and the last-but-four label in turn, and so on.

In step 706, the selected tab is exposed at the top level of the background application list.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, the tags in the background application list may be displayed in a stacked manner in the first display area, and the selected tag is stacked on the uppermost layer.

For example, please refer to fig. 10 to 12, which are schematic diagrams illustrating three applications selected by touch-and-slide operation according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

In fig. 10, when the touch slide operation slides from the right side display area across the area boundary and the lateral shift x to the left in the front side display area does not exceed 180, the leftmost tab in the background application list (the corresponding application is program a) is selected and displayed in a stack on the uppermost layer.

In fig. 11, the touch-and-slide operation continues to slide to the left in the front display area, and when the lateral shift x to the left in the front display area exceeds 180 but does not exceed 360, the second tab from the left in the background application list (the corresponding application is program B) is selected and displayed in the top layer in a stacked manner.

In fig. 12, the touch-and-slide operation continues to slide to the left in the front display area, and when the lateral shift x to the left in the front display area exceeds 360, the third tab from the left in the background application list (the corresponding application is program C) is selected and displayed in the top layer in a stacked manner. When the touch sliding operation continues to slide leftwards in the front display area, the fourth label and the fifth label from the left in the background application list can be selected in sequence.

Optionally, if the touch point leaves the first display area during the execution of the touch sliding operation, the terminal may cancel displaying the background application list.

In step 707, when the touch sliding operation is ended, if the ending position of the touch sliding operation is in the first display area, it is determined that the touch sliding operation meets the preset condition, and an interface of the application program corresponding to the tab displayed on the top layer of the background application list is acquired as a target interface.

In this embodiment of the disclosure, when the touch sliding operation is ended in the first display area, the terminal may acquire, as a target interface, an interface of an application program corresponding to a tab (that is, a selected tab) currently displayed at the top layer in the background application list.

In step 708, the interface content displayed in the first display area is switched to the interface content of the target interface.

For example, please refer to fig. 13, which shows a schematic diagram of an interface content replacement display according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Assuming that the display state of the background application list is as shown in fig. 12 when the touch slide operation is finished in the first display area, the terminal displays the application interface of the program C in the first display area at this time.

In step 709, when the ending position of the touch sliding operation is in the first display area, it is determined that the touch sliding operation meets the preset condition, and the interface type of the current display interface in the first display area is obtained.

Wherein the interface type includes desktop or non-desktop.

In step 710, when the interface type is desktop, acquiring the interface of the application program opened last time as a target interface; and when the interface type is non-desktop, acquiring the desktop as a target interface. Proceed to step 708

The execution process of step 709 to step 710 is similar to the implementation process of step 507 to step 509 in the embodiment shown in fig. 5, and is not described again here.

In another possible implementation manner, when there is no application running in the background of the terminal, the terminal may further obtain a first lateral displacement (i.e., a vertical distance between an end position of the touch sliding operation and a boundary of the area) of the touch sliding operation in the first display area, and when the first lateral displacement is greater than a second distance threshold, determine that the touch sliding operation satisfies a preset condition. The second distance threshold may be the same as or different from the first distance threshold, and the setting manners of the second distance threshold and the first distance threshold are similar, which is not described herein again.

To sum up, according to the scheme shown in the embodiment of the present disclosure, when the terminal acquires a target operation instruction corresponding to a touch sliding operation whose starting position is located in a display area on a side of the terminal, if the touch sliding operation satisfies a preset condition and an application program runs in a terminal background, an application interface of any application program in the application program running in the terminal background can be selected to be switched and displayed in the first display area according to a real-time lateral displacement of the touch sliding operation in the first display area.
