In general, the foldable screen may be folded into different folding states along with the folding of the user, and the folding state may be a posture or a form formed by the foldable screen after being folded. In a folded state (i.e., a folded angle between the folded screens is less than 180 degrees), the display area of the electronic device is generally small, and in an unfolded state (i.e., a folded angle between the folded screens is 180 degrees), the display area of the terminal is restored to an original state. Under the two states (the folding state and the unfolding state), the unused requirements of users can be met; in the folded state, the user generally performs only simple operations such as making and receiving calls, and in the unfolded large screen state, the user can use the apparatus for office work or the like. However, in the folded state and the unfolded state, how to coordinate the multi-process display, for example, when an incoming call is received in the unfolded state, it is difficult for the display interface to coordinate the display of the original process and the incoming call process.

Detailed Description

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, not all, embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

It should be appreciated that reference throughout this specification to "one embodiment" or "an embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment is included in at least one embodiment of the present invention. Thus, the appearances of the phrases "in one embodiment" or "in an embodiment" in various places throughout this specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment. Furthermore, the particular features, structures, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.

In various embodiments of the present invention, it should be understood that the sequence numbers of the following processes do not mean the execution sequence, and the execution sequence of each process should be determined by its function and inherent logic, and should not constitute any limitation to the implementation process of the embodiments of the present invention.

Referring to fig. 1, an embodiment of the present invention provides a process display method applied to electronic devices, including various handheld devices, vehicle-mounted devices, wearable devices, computing devices or other processing devices connected to a wireless modem, and various forms of Mobile Stations (MSs), Terminal devices (Terminal devices), and so on.

The electronic device comprises a first display screen and a second display screen which are connected in a foldable mode, as a first example, referring to fig. 2, the electronic device shown in fig. 2 comprises a first display screen O1 and a second display screen O2 which are connected in a foldable mode, and the first display screen O1 and the second display screen O2 are connected in a foldable mode through a connection axis L, and normally, when the electronic device is used, a user can use the second display screen O2 as a main screen; the movement operation or the folding operation mentioned in the embodiment of the present invention, that is, the movement of the first display O1 or the second display O2 about the connection axis L, changes the angle between the two displays; the angle between the two display screens, i.e. the angle between the plane of O1 and the plane of O2, is the folding angle mentioned in the embodiments of the present invention.

The method comprises the following steps:

step 101, receiving a display request of a second process under the condition that a foreground of the electronic device runs a first process.

A Process (Process) is the basic execution entity of an application. Specifically, a process is a running activity of an application in an electronic device on a certain data set, and is a basic unit for resource allocation and scheduling by an operating system.

And receiving a display request of a second process under the condition that the foreground of the electronic equipment runs the first process. For example, when the electronic device receives an incoming call while playing a video, the first process is a video playing process, and the second process is an incoming call process; or in the process that the electronic device uses the office application program, if the push message of other application programs is received, the office application program is the first process, and the push message is the second process.

102, responding to the display request, and displaying the second process in a target display mode; wherein the target display mode is determined according to a folding angle between the first display screen and the second display screen.

After a display request of a second process is received, a first folding angle between a first display screen and the second display screen is obtained, and a display mode of the second process is determined according to the folding angle; as shown in fig. 2, the first folding angle is a folding angle between the first display O1 or the second display O2. Alternatively, an angle sensor may be provided at the connection axis L in fig. 2, to detect the folding angle,

the first folding angle is used for judging the use state of the display screen. In general, if the folding angle is greater than the first preset angle value, both the two display screens are in the use state, i.e., the unfolded state, for example, if the folding angle is greater than 160 degrees, both the two display screens are in use, as shown in fig. 3, otherwise, if the folding angle is less than the second preset angle value, only one display screen is in use, i.e., the folded state, for example, if the folding angle is less than 45 degrees, only one display screen is in use state, as shown in fig. 4, only O1 is in use state in the folded state.

For example, if the display screen is in the expanded state, the first process currently running by the electronic device is usually a process that needs full-screen display, such as running an office program or playing a video, and the like, the target display mode may be that the first process and the floating window mode are displayed on the screen of the electronic device together, so as to avoid affecting the display of the first process; if the display screen is in a folded state, the first process currently running by the electronic device does not need to be displayed in a full screen mode, and other processes can be received, for example, the first process is a message pushing process, and the user only browses the push message at the moment, so that the target display mode can be displayed on the screen of the electronic device in a full screen mode or a large area mode, and the display request of the second process caused by the fact that the display area is small due to screen folding is avoided.

In the embodiment of the invention, under the condition that the foreground of the electronic equipment runs the first process, the display request of the second process is received; responding to the display request, and displaying the second process in a target display mode; wherein the target display mode is determined according to the folding angle between the first display screen and the second display screen; for example, the second process is controlled to be displayed in a non-full screen mode, so that the display of the first process is prevented from being influenced; or controlling the second process to be displayed in a full screen mode, and avoiding the user from missing the display request of the second process; the service state of the folding screen is determined based on the folding angle, the display modes of a plurality of processes are coordinated, and the service intelligence degree of the electronic equipment is improved. The embodiment of the invention solves the problem of how to coordinate multi-process display of the electronic equipment with the foldable screen in a folded state and an unfolded state in the prior art.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, before displaying the second process in the target display manner, the method further includes:

determining a first folding angle between the first display screen and the second display screen;

the displaying the second process in a target display mode comprises:

determining the target display mode according to the first folding angle and the first corresponding relation;

the first corresponding relationship is the corresponding relationship between the folding angle and the display mode between the first display screen and the second display screen.

Optionally, a first corresponding relationship exists between the folding angle and the display mode, and the display mode includes a display mode of the second process; in the first corresponding relation, determining the use state of the display screen according to the folding angle, and then determining the display mode of the second process according to the use state; for example, if the display screen is in the expanded state, the first process currently running by the electronic device is usually a process that needs full-screen display, such as running an office program or playing a video, and the like, the display mode of the second process may be that the first process and the floating window are displayed on the screen of the electronic device together, so as to avoid affecting the display of the first process; if the display screen is in a folded state, the first process currently running by the electronic device does not need to be displayed in a full screen mode, and other processes can be received, for example, the first process is a message pushing process, and the user only browses the message at the moment, so that the display mode of the second process can be displayed on the screen of the electronic device in a full screen mode or a large area mode, and the display request of the second process is prevented from being missed by the user due to the fact that the display area is small when the screen is folded.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present invention, the display modes include a first display mode and a second display mode:

the step of determining the target display mode according to the first folding angle and the first corresponding relationship comprises:

if the first folding angle is larger than a first preset threshold value, determining that the target display mode is the first display mode; the first preset threshold may be any value between 160 degrees and 180 degrees, and in a scene where the first folding angle is greater than the first preset threshold, the folding screen is in an unfolded state, for example, in a scene where a user is currently using the electronic device to perform document editing, video viewing, and gaming, as shown in fig. 3, at this time, the folding screen may be displayed in a non-full screen manner, for example, in a form of a small-area floating window or a floating ball, on the screen of the electronic device together with the first process, so as to avoid affecting the display of the first process.

If the first folding angle is smaller than or equal to a second preset threshold value, determining that the target display mode is the second display mode; the second preset threshold is smaller than any value of 45 degrees, and in a scene where the first folding angle is smaller than or equal to the second preset threshold, if the user is in a scene of answering or making a call at the moment, the folding screen is in a folding state, as shown in fig. 4, the second display mode is a full screen display mode or a floating window display mode with a larger area, for example, the floating window occupies more than 40% of the displayed main screen at the moment, and the display request of the second process is missed by the user due to the small folding display area of the screen.

Further, in the embodiment of the present invention, the first display mode is displayed in a first floating window mode simultaneously with the first process; the ratio of the first floating window to the screen display area of the electronic device is smaller than a third preset threshold, for example, the third preset threshold may be any value smaller than 40%.

As a second example, as shown in fig. 5, the first process of the electronic device in fig. 5 is a text editing process, and the background of the electronic device starts monitoring a display request; if the display request comes from the incoming call process, the electronic equipment further detects the use state of the folding screen; if the folding screen is in the unfolding state, the user of the electronic equipment is possibly in the working state, under the normal condition, the user of the electronic equipment can display the call in a full screen mode and cover the currently displayed interface, the first process which is carried out by the user is obviously interrupted, and the call answering is inconvenient due to the large interface in the unfolding state of the folding screen, so that the interface of the call answering process can be displayed in a first display mode; the first display mode is a non-full screen display mode, and is displayed simultaneously with the first process in a mode of a first floating window (shown as S in figure 5).

The second display mode comprises full-screen display or display in a second floating window mode; the ratio of the first floating window to the screen display area of the electronic equipment is larger than a fourth preset threshold.

If the folding screen is in the folding state, it is indicated that the first process currently running by the electronic device does not need to be displayed in a full screen mode, and other processes can be received, for example, the first process is a message pushing process, the user only browses the message at the moment, the second process is displayed in a second floating window mode, the ratio of the first floating window to the screen display area of the electronic device is larger than a fourth preset threshold, and the fourth preset threshold can be any numerical value larger than 40%.

As a third example, as shown in fig. 6, at this time, the first process is a text editing process, the second process is an incoming call process, and since the folding screen is in a folded state, the folding screen does not need to be unfolded for more professional and convenient editing, so that the incoming call interface can be displayed in a second display mode, which may be full screen display, or large-area floating window S display, full screen display and large-area floating window display shown in fig. 6, so that more information and operation buttons can be displayed, and a user can more conveniently and quickly answer and know details of an incoming call.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, when the target display manner is a display manner in a floating window, the floating window is the first floating window or the second floating window; the floating window may be the floating window in the first display mode or the floating window in the second display mode.

Referring to fig. 7, after the step of displaying the second process in the target display manner, the method further includes:

step 701, receiving a first operation acting on the floating window.

For example, as shown in fig. 5, in a text editing state and in an unfolded state of the folding screen, the electronic device monitors a display request of an incoming call process as a second process in a background, and displays incoming call information in a manner of a floating ball (i.e., a circular floating window); the hover ball may be dragged by a user; the user drags the floating ball as required, and the first operation of long-pressing the floating ball and moving on the screen is only needed to act on the floating window; in addition, the incoming call interface can be minimized in a mode of floating the ball, and the covering influence of the incoming call interface on the editing interface is avoided.

Step 702, in response to the first operation, executing a target operation on the second process.

Determining a target operation according to the operation parameters of the first operation; specifically, the target operation comprises a first target operation and a second target operation;

the performing a target operation on the second process comprises at least one of:

the first condition is as follows: performing the first target operation with the floating window moved to a first position;

case two: performing the second target operation with the floating window moved to a second position;

case three: executing the first target operation in a case where a slip speed of the first operation is greater than a first speed;

case four: the second target operation is executed in a case where the slip speed of the first operation is greater than a second speed.

The first target operation may be to end the process, and the second target operation may be to perform an operation related to the second process, for example, if the second process is an incoming call process, the second target operation may be to display a key for making a call, or to directly answer the incoming call.

In the first case and the second case, different end positions where the floating window is moved correspond to different target operations, and in the first case and the second case, the sliding speed of the first operation is different and corresponds to different target operations.

As a fourth example, referring to fig. 8, if the floating window appears at the lower right of the screen by default, and if the user drags the floating window to move toward the center of the screen (i.e., to the left), the moving direction is as indicated by arrow T in the figure, the floating window is moved to the first position on the first display screen O1, or the sliding speed of the first operation is greater than the first speed, then the corresponding first target operation is "answer the call". When the user drags the floating window and the sliding direction is moving towards the edge of the screen, the moving direction is the opposite direction of an arrow T in the figure, the corresponding second target operation is 'ending progress' or 'hanging up the phone', a short prompt window 'ending progress' or other words are popped up at the edge of the screen to prompt the user, and the button is shown as a window P in the figure: if the user continues to drag or release his/her hand in the direction, the incoming call process can be terminated, and the floating window display can be terminated.

Optionally, in an embodiment of the present invention, after the step of responding to the first operation, the method further includes:

and displaying a target operation key corresponding to the second progress when the sliding speed of the first operation is detected to be higher than a third speed.

If the sliding speed of the first operation exceeds a fourth preset threshold, displaying a target operation key corresponding to the second process, for example, when a user drags the floating window to move, triggering electronic equipment to acquire the moving speed of the floating window, and when the moving speed is greater than the fourth preset threshold, displaying the target operation key; for example, as shown in fig. 9, the target operation key is an end progress key, such as a key shown in a window P: if the user continues to drag or release his/her hand in the direction, the incoming call process can be terminated, and the floating window display can be terminated.

Typically, the speed of the user dragging a function button is generally kept within the normal threshold, i.e. not greater than the fourth preset threshold. Therefore, the speed value exceeding the normal threshold range can be set to trigger the functions, so that whether the user normally moves or wants to close the mobile terminal can be effectively distinguished, and the process can be quickly ended in this way.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the target operations further include a third target operation, and the third target operation may be used to expand the floating window, hide the floating window, move the floating window, set a sound effect for a related prompt of the floating window, and the like. For example, when the electronic device receives the first operation, the hidden window may be hidden based on the first operation; the first operation is generated based on a predetermined operation, such as a double-click operation, performed by a user on the displayed hidden window.

Optionally, since the floating window only prompts simple incoming call information, the floating window can prompt an incoming call, and if the local contact a calls, the floating window can prompt an incoming call; if the call is from a stranger, the information such as 'stranger number call' can be prompted; as the floating window does not have function keys for answering, hanging up and the like, if a user wants to further know detailed incoming call information or answer, the user can click the floating window, as shown in fig. 9, and if the user clicks the floating window S, a window interface pops up, as a fifth example, the window interface is shown in fig. 10, and can display the incoming call number and the attribution information and provide function keys for answering, rejecting and the like; and after answering, displaying an answering window, wherein the answering window provides functional keys such as hang-up, recording, a loudspeaker and the like.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, when the foreground of the electronic device runs the first process, before receiving the display request of the second process, the method includes:

and determining that the foreground of the electronic equipment runs the first process under the condition that preset content is displayed on a display page of the electronic equipment, or a display interface of the electronic equipment is a preset display interface, or a preset operation is received.

The method comprises the steps of acquiring page display content of the electronic equipment, and determining whether the page display content belongs to a display state of a first process or not according to the page display content; when the page display content is preset content, such as characters, an image editing page, a game interface, a drawing interface and the like, determining the page display content as the display state of a first process;

or acquiring a control instruction generated based on preset operation of a user on a currently displayed page of the electronic equipment, and determining the current display state as the first progress display state based on the control instruction.

Optionally, in an embodiment of the present invention, after the step of displaying the second process in the target display manner, the method includes:

and detecting that the folding angle between the first display screen and the second display screen is switched from the first folding angle to a second folding angle, determining a third display mode according to the second folding angle and the first corresponding relation, and displaying the second progress in the third display mode.

Specifically, during the display of the second process in the target display mode, the folded screen is judged to be changed from the unfolded state to the folded state according to the second folding angle, or the folded screen is judged to be changed from the folded state to the unfolded state according to the second folding angle, and then the second process is displayed in a third display mode.

During the period that the second process is displayed in the first display mode, judging whether the folding screen is changed from the unfolding state to the folding state, if so, displaying the second process in the second display mode; and during the second process is displayed in the second display mode, judging whether the folding screen is changed from the folding state to the unfolding state, if so, returning to the first process display state, and displaying the second process in the first display mode.

Still taking the second process as an example of incoming call, if the user detects that the folding screen is folded when displaying the incoming call process in the floating window manner in the unfolded state shown in fig. 9, and determines that the user needs to answer the call, detailed incoming call information is displayed on the folding screen, that is, the detailed incoming call information is displayed on the folding screen (main screen) after folding in a full screen manner, as shown in fig. 10, the incoming call detail information interface includes: information such as a home, a number, a caller and the like, and function keys such as answering, hanging up, recording and the like.

Specifically, when the folding screen is detected to be folded and the folding screen is changed from the unfolding state to the folding state, a display conversion instruction is generated, and based on the display conversion instruction, a first display mode of the calling process in the unfolding state of the folding screen, namely a floating window display mode, is converted into a second display mode, namely a full-screen detailed calling information interface is displayed.

Further, when the folding screen is changed from the unfolded state to the folded state and the detailed incoming call information interface is displayed in a full screen mode, an automatic answering function is provided, the electronic equipment background reads the preset configuration of the user and configures the preset configuration into preset time, namely after the preset time is displayed in the detailed incoming call information interface in the full screen mode, the user can answer automatically, for example, 5 seconds, 3 seconds and the like set by the user, and when the preset time does not reach, the user can answer or reject the incoming call actively.

And when the user refuses to hang up, ending the incoming call and closing the detailed incoming call information interface, and displaying the main interface of the electronic equipment. When the folding screen is detected to be unfolded again, the display state of the first process is recovered, whether the electronic equipment is close to the ear or not is detected through an ear distance sensor, and if yes, the telephone is automatically answered; or the user actively clicks an answering key or a refusing key; after being turned on, as a sixth example, a call interface is displayed as shown in fig. 11.

With the above description of the process display method according to the embodiment of the present invention, an electronic device according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Referring to fig. 12, an embodiment of the present invention further provides an electronic device 1200, where the electronic device 1200 includes a first display screen and a second display screen that are foldably connected, and referring to fig. 2, the electronic device 1200 shown in fig. 2 includes a first display screen O1 and a second display screen O2 that are foldably connected, and the first display screen O1 and the second display screen O2 are foldably connected through a connection axis L, and in a normal case, when a user uses the electronic device 1200, the second display screen O2 serves as a main screen; the movement operation or the folding operation mentioned in the embodiment of the present invention, that is, the movement of the first display O1 or the second display O2 about the connection axis L, changes the angle between the two displays; the angle between the two display screens, i.e. the angle between the plane of O1 and the plane of O2, is the folding angle mentioned in the embodiments of the present invention.
