The terms first, second and the like in the description and in the claims of the present application are used for distinguishing between similar elements and not necessarily for describing a particular sequential or chronological order. It is to be understood that the data so used is interchangeable under appropriate circumstances such that the embodiments of the application are capable of operation in sequences other than those illustrated or described herein. In addition, "and/or" in the specification and claims means at least one of connected objects, a character "/" generally means that a preceding and succeeding related objects are in an "or" relationship.

The embodiment of the application provides a split-screen display method, a split-screen display device and electronic equipment, wherein under the condition that each split-screen area of N split-screen areas respectively displays an interface, a first input of a user to a first split-screen area of the N split-screen areas is received; responding to a first input, displaying an interface in a target split screen area obtained by combining M second split screen areas in the first split screen area and the N split screen areas, or respectively displaying an interface in each sub-split screen area of K sub-split screen areas obtained by splitting the first split screen area; receiving a second input of the user; and responding to a second input, and displaying a corresponding interface in each of the N newly divided screen areas according to the stored screen division display modes of the N screen division areas, wherein N and K are integers larger than 1, and M is a positive integer smaller than N. According to the scheme, when a first split screen area and M second split screen areas in the N split screen areas are merged into a target split screen area, or when the first split screen area in the N split screen areas is split into K sub-split screen areas, the split screen modes of the N split screen areas can be stored, so that after second input of a user is received, the screen can be re-divided into the N split screen areas according to the split screen modes, corresponding interfaces are displayed in each of the N split screen areas obtained through re-division, namely, the split screen state before the split screen areas are merged is quickly recovered, and accordingly, the split screen operation of the user is simplified.

The split-screen display method, the split-screen display device, and the electronic device provided by the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings through specific embodiments and application scenarios thereof.

As shown in fig. 1, an embodiment of the present application provides a split-screen display method. The method may include steps 101 to 104 described below.

Step 101, under the condition that each split screen area of the N split screen areas respectively displays an interface, the split screen display device receives a first input of a user to a first split screen area of the N split screen areas.

Wherein N is an integer greater than 1.

In the embodiment of the application, when a user wants to operate multiple interfaces simultaneously, the user can trigger the split-screen display device to divide the screen into N split-screen areas through multiple split-screen operations, and display one interface in each split-screen area, which can refer to the prior art and is not repeated in the embodiment of the application.

Optionally, for each of the N split screen areas, one split screen area displays one interface, that is, the N split screen areas display N interfaces. Accordingly, the N interfaces displayed by the N split screen areas may be: interfaces with different contents in the same application program, interfaces with different contents in different application programs, and interfaces with the same contents in different application programs. Of course, the plurality of interfaces may also include: other types of interfaces besides the interface of the application program, such as a desktop interface or a picture interface, may be determined according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the present application is not limited.

The first scenario is that when the size of a first split screen area in N split screen areas is small, which results in incomplete display of content of a first interface in the first split screen area, or a user is not interested in interface content in M second split screen areas in the N split screen areas, the user may trigger to merge the first split screen area and the M second split screen areas into one split screen area through a first input. The first split screen area can be any one of the N split screen areas, and the M second split screen areas are at least one of the N split screen areas except the first split screen area. Wherein M is a positive integer less than N.

The second scenario is that when the size of a first split screen area of the N split screen areas is large, if a user wants to display a plurality of different interfaces in the first split screen area, or display a plurality of identical interfaces in the first split screen area, the user can split the first split screen area into K sub-split screen areas through a first input trigger. Wherein K is an integer greater than 1.

Optionally, the first input may be any one of:

and touch input aiming at the first screen separation area. For example, the touch input may be a touch input along a direction parallel to one diagonal of the first screen area, or a touch input along a direction perpendicular to the first side of the first screen area, and the like.

And inputting voice aiming at the first screen division area. For example, the N split screen areas include a first split screen area, a second split screen area, and a third split screen area, and the first split screen area corresponds to "1", the second split screen area corresponds to "2", and the third split screen area corresponds to "3". If the user inputs '1' by voice, the split screen display apparatus may receive the voice message '1' and determine as an input to the first split screen region; if the user inputs '2' by voice, the split screen display apparatus may receive the voice message '2' and determine as an input to the second split screen region; if the user inputs '3' by voice, the split display apparatus may receive the voice information '3' and determine as an input to the third split area.

And inputting a gesture aiming at the first screen separation area. For example, the N split screen areas include a first split screen area and a second split screen area. If the user performs a gesture input along a first direction parallel to a plane on which the screen is located, the split-screen display device may determine that the gesture input is an input to a first split-screen area; if the user makes a gesture input in a second direction parallel to the plane of the screen, the split screen display device may determine the gesture input as an input to a second split screen area.

It is to be understood that the above listed inputs are exemplary lists, i.e., embodiments of the present application include, but are not limited to, the above listed inputs. In practical implementation, the first input may further include any other possible input, which may be specifically determined according to practical use requirements, and the embodiment of the present application is not limited.

It should be noted that the split-screen display device provided in the embodiment of the present application may include at least one screen, and the N split-screen areas may be split-screen areas in any one of the at least one screen. Each screen may be a folding screen that can be folded, or an unfolding screen that cannot be folded.

Step 102, the split-screen display device responds to the first input, and displays an interface in a target split-screen area obtained by combining the first split-screen area and the M second split-screen areas, or displays an interface in each of K sub-split-screen areas obtained by splitting the first split-screen area.

In a general case, the N split screen areas are independent display areas, so that when a user performs operations such as forwarding, copying, sharing, and page changing on the content of the interface in one split screen area, the interfaces in other split screen areas are not affected. However, in the embodiment of the present application, when a first input of the user to the first split screen area is received, the interfaces in the M second split screen areas may be affected by the first input, for example, the interfaces in the M second split screen areas are not displayed.

The step of displaying an interface in the target split-screen area obtained by combining the first split-screen area and the M second split-screen areas includes: merging the split screen area and the M second split screen areas to obtain a target split screen area; and then, displaying an interface in the target split screen area.

If one interface displayed in the target split screen area is the first interface, the first interface may be any one of the following:

(a) the interface displayed in the first split-screen area before the first input is received, that is, the split-screen display device may display the first interface in the first split-screen area in the merged target split-screen area.

(b) The interface displayed in any second split-screen area before the first input is received, that is, the split-screen display device may display the interface in any other split-screen area in the merged target split-screen area.

The step of "displaying an interface in each of K sub-split screen areas obtained by splitting the first split screen area" includes: splitting the first split screen area to obtain K sub split screen areas; and then, respectively displaying an interface in each of the K sub-split screen areas.

If one interface displayed in each of the K sub-split screen areas is a second interface, the second interface is any one of the following:

(a) an interface selected by a user after receiving the first input. The interface may be the same as one of the N interfaces displayed by the N split screen areas, or different from all of the N split screen areas.

(b) The interface displayed in the first split screen area before the first input is received, that is, the interface displayed in the first split screen area can be directly displayed in one sub-split screen area without user input.

(c) And recommending the interface according to the interface displayed in the first screen division area before the first input is received. For example, if the interface displayed in the first split-screen area before the first input is received is shopping interface 1, the interface recommended to be displayed in one split-screen area is shopping interface 2.

Optionally, after receiving the first input, the split-screen display apparatus may further store the split-screen display modes of the N split-screen areas in response to the first input. The split-screen display mode may be at least one of: the position relationship (for example, the upper-lower relationship, the left-right relationship, and the like) of each of the N split screen regions, the position relationship and the interface corresponding to each split screen region (that is, the interface displayed in each split screen region) of each of the N split screen regions, the position and the display mode (for example, the horizontal screen and vertical screen state, the interface brightness, and the like) of each split screen region of the N split screen regions.

Optionally, "displaying an interface in a target split-screen area obtained by combining the first split-screen area and the M second split-screen areas" may specifically include: and displaying the first interface in the target split screen area, canceling the display of the interfaces in the M second split screen areas, and amplifying and displaying the first interface in the merged target split screen area.

For the first scenario, the target split screen area may be any one of the following:

(1) when the first input is a touch input along a direction parallel to one diagonal of the first split screen area, the target split screen area is an area obtained by combining N split screen areas, that is, an area obtained by combining all the split screen areas.

Illustratively, as shown in fig. 2A, the screen of the split screen display device is divided into a split screen area 01, a split screen area 02 and a split screen area 03, and the split screen area 01 displays an interface of app1, the split screen area 02 displays an interface of app2, and the split screen area 03 displays an interface of app 3. When the user wants to merge all the split screen areas, the user's two fingers can slide out of the two touch points along a direction parallel to a diagonal line f1 of the split screen area 01, starting from the touch point a and the touch point B, respectively. After receiving the two-finger swipe input, as shown in fig. 2B, the split-screen display device may merge the 3 split-screen areas into one split-screen area and display the interface of app1 in full screen in the screen. Note that the display scale of the content in the interface of app1 shown in fig. 2B is larger than the display scale of the content in the interface of app1 shown in fig. 2A.

(2) And under the condition that the first input is touch input along a direction vertical to the first side of the first split screen area, the target split screen area is an area obtained by combining the plurality of split screen areas. The split screen areas are areas determined according to a first side of the first split screen area and a first side of the screen, and the first side of the first split screen area is perpendicular to the first side of the screen.

Illustratively, as shown in fig. 3A, the screen of the split screen display device is divided into a split screen area 01, a split screen area 02 and a split screen area 03, and the split screen area 01 displays an interface of app1, the split screen area 02 displays an interface of app2, and the split screen area 03 displays an interface of app 3. One side a1 of the split screen area 01 is perpendicular to one side b2 of the screen, and the other side b1 of the split screen area 01 is perpendicular to the other side a2 of the screen. When the user wants to merge the split screen area 01 and the split screen area 02, the user's finger may slide outward the two touch points in a direction perpendicular to one side a1 of the split screen area 01 (i.e., in a direction parallel to one side b2 of the screen) starting from the touch point E and the touch point F, respectively. After receiving the two-finger swipe input, as shown in fig. 3B, the split screen display device may merge split screen region 01 and split screen region 02 into one split screen region, and display an interface of app1 in the merged split screen region. Note that the display scale of the content in the interface of app1 shown in fig. 3B is larger than the display scale of the content in the interface of app1 shown in fig. 3A.

The "target split-screen area is an area obtained by combining a plurality of split-screen areas", specifically, a first side of a first split-screen area and a first side of a screen are taken as two sides of the target split-screen area, so as to determine a rectangular area. In addition, the target split-screen area may be composed of a first split-screen area and a second split-screen area, or the target split-screen area may be composed of a first split-screen area and a plurality of second split-screen areas, which is not limited in this embodiment of the application.

(3) And under the condition that the first input track passes through the first split screen area and the M second split screen areas, the target split screen area is an area obtained by combining the first split screen area and the M second split screen areas.

Illustratively, as shown in fig. 4A, the screen of the split screen display device is divided into 9 split screen areas, and one split screen area displays an interface of one app. The user can slide a finger in the screen, and when the finger passes through the split screen area displaying the app8 interface, the split screen area displaying the app5 interface, the split screen area displaying the app2 interface, the split screen area displaying the app1 interface, the split screen area displaying the app4 interface and the split screen area displaying the app7 interface in sequence. As shown in fig. 4B, the split screen display device may merge the 6 split screen regions and display an app8 interface in the merged region.

For the second scenario, the K sub-split screen regions may be any one of the following:

(1) and under the condition that the first input comprises K sub-inputs of K positions in the first split-screen area, the K sub-split-screen areas are obtained by splitting the first split-screen area according to the K positions.

Illustratively, as shown in fig. 5 (a), after the user makes a click input at the position P1, the position P2, the position P3, the position P4, and the position P5 in the first split-screen area, the split-screen display apparatus may divide the first split-screen area into 5 sub-split-screen areas according to the 5 positions and a preset algorithm.

(2) And under the condition that the first input comprises at least one sliding input in the first split-screen area, splitting the first split-screen area by the K sub-split-screen areas according to the track of the at least one sliding input.

For example, as shown in (b) of fig. 5, after the user slides in the dotted line direction in the first split-screen region, the split-screen display apparatus may divide the first split-screen region into a sub-split-screen region S1, a sub-split-screen region S2, and a sub-split-screen region S3 according to two sliding trajectories.

(3) And under the condition that the first input is the selection input of the preset screen splitting mode, the K sub screen splitting areas are obtained by splitting the first screen splitting area according to the preset screen splitting mode.

Optionally, the preset screen splitting manner may include the number of the screen splitting sub-regions, the arrangement manner of the screen splitting sub-regions, the positions of the screen splitting sub-regions, the sizes of the screen splitting sub-regions, and the like, and may be determined according to actual use requirements, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

And 103, receiving a second input of the user by the split-screen display device.

In this embodiment, the second input may be used for the split-screen display device to return to the split-screen state before receiving the first input according to the stored split-screen mode.

Optionally, the second input may be a touch input, a gesture input, a voice input, or the like. For example, taking the second input as the touch input as an example, the touch input may be an input to a target control, and the target control is used to trigger to return to the split-screen state before the first input is received; if the first input is an input along a first direction, the touch input may be an input along a second direction opposite to the first direction.

And 104, responding to the second input by the split-screen display device, and displaying a corresponding interface in each split-screen area of the N split-screen areas obtained by re-dividing according to the stored split-screen mode of the N split-screen areas.

Optionally, after the screen is subdivided into N split screen regions according to the split screen manner, the split screen display method provided in the embodiment of the present application may further include: and displaying a first interface in the first split-screen area, and displaying M second interfaces in the M second split-screen areas. And the second interface displayed in the second screen splitting area is the interface displayed in the second screen splitting area before the first input is received.

Optionally, in a first possible implementation manner, the second input is a touch input along a direction parallel to one diagonal of the screen, and the direction of the second input is opposite to the direction of the first input.

For example, as shown in fig. 2B, before the split display apparatus merges 3 split areas into one split area in response to the first input, the split display apparatus may store the split modes of the split area 01, the split area 02, and the split area 03 as shown in fig. 2A. Therefore, when the user wants to return to the split screen state before receiving the first input, the user's fingers can slide toward the centers of the two touch points along a direction parallel to one diagonal line f2 of the screen, starting from touch point C and touch point D, respectively, as shown in fig. 2B. After receiving the two-finger sliding input, as shown in fig. 2A, the screen of the split screen display device is subdivided into a split screen area 01, a split screen area 02 and a split screen area 03, and the split screen area 01 displays an interface of app1, the split screen area 02 displays an interface of app2, and the split screen area 03 displays an interface of app 3.

A second possible implementation manner is that the second input is a touch input along a direction perpendicular to the first side of the first screen splitting area, and the direction of the second input is opposite to the direction of the first input.

For example, as shown in fig. 3B, before the split screen display apparatus merges the split screen area 01 and the split screen area 02 into one split screen area in response to the first input, the split screen display apparatus may store the split screen modes of the split screen area 01, the split screen area 02, and the split screen area 03 as shown in fig. 3A. Therefore, when the user wants to return to the split screen state before receiving the first input, the user's fingers can slide toward the centers of the two touch points along a direction perpendicular to one side a1 of the split screen area 01 (i.e., a direction parallel to one side B2 of the screen) starting from the touch point G and the touch point H shown in fig. 3B, respectively. After receiving the two-finger sliding input, as shown in fig. 3A, the screen of the split screen display device is subdivided into a split screen area 01, a split screen area 02 and a split screen area 03, and the split screen area 01 displays an interface of app1, the split screen area 02 displays an interface of app2, and the split screen area 03 displays an interface of app 3.

The embodiment of the application provides a split-screen display method, which includes storing split-screen modes of N split-screen areas when a first split-screen area and M second split-screen areas in the N split-screen areas are combined into a target split-screen area, or when the first split-screen area in the N split-screen areas is split into K sub-split-screen areas, after receiving a second input of a user, subdividing a screen into the N split-screen areas according to the split-screen modes, and displaying a corresponding interface in each of the N split-screen areas obtained through subdivision, namely quickly restoring a split-screen state before the split-screen areas are combined, so that split-screen operation of the user is simplified.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, the user may change the display direction of the interface in any one of the multiple split-screen areas, and the display directions of the interfaces in the other split-screen areas remain unchanged. Illustratively, the split-screen display method provided by the embodiment of the present application may further include steps 105 and 106 described below.

And 105, under the condition that each split screen area of the N split screen areas displays one interface, receiving a third input of a user to a third split screen area by the split screen display device, wherein the third split screen area is any one split screen area of the N split screen areas.

And 106, responding to the third input by the split-screen display device, adjusting the display direction of the interface in the third split-screen area according to the input parameter of the third input, and keeping the display directions of the interfaces in other split-screen areas except the third split-screen area.

Optionally, the input parameters of the third input may include at least one of: the number of the touch fingers in the third split screen area, the sliding direction of the touch fingers in the third split screen area, the rotation angle of the touch fingers in the third split screen area, the sliding distance of the touch fingers in the third split screen area and the like.

One way is that the split-screen display device presets P display directions, one display direction corresponds to a group of input parameter intervals, and P is an integer greater than or equal to 2. For example, a display direction 1, a display direction 2, a display direction 3, and a display direction 4 are preset, the rotation angle area interval of the touch finger in the split screen area corresponding to the display direction 1 is (0 °, 90 ° ], the rotation angle area interval of the touch finger in the split screen area corresponding to the display direction 2 is (90 °, 180 ° ]), the rotation angle area interval of the touch finger in the split screen area corresponding to the display direction 3 is (180 °, 270 ° ], and the rotation angle area interval of the touch finger in the split screen area corresponding to the display direction 4 is (270 °, 360 °).

For example, as shown in fig. 6 (a), when the user slides a finger along a trajectory shown by a dotted line in the split screen area 01, if a central angle corresponding to the sliding trajectory is 180 °, the split screen display device may rotate the app1 interface in the split screen area 01 clockwise by 180 °; as shown in (b) of fig. 6, when the user slides a finger along a trajectory shown by a dotted line in the split screen area 01, if a central angle corresponding to the sliding trajectory is 90 °, the split screen display apparatus may rotate the app1 interface in the split screen area 01 clockwise by 90 °.

In another mode, the display angle corresponding to the display direction is proportional to the input parameter. Assuming that the display angle corresponding to the display direction is Y and the input parameter is X, Y ═ k × X exists. Wherein k is a proportionality coefficient.

When the number of fingers of the user performing touch operation in the third split screen area is different, k changes. For example, suppose X is used to represent the clockwise rotation angle of the touch finger in the third split screen area, and Y is used to represent the clockwise rotation angle of the interface in the third split screen area.
