As shown in fig. 1, an embodiment of the present application provides an image generation method, which may include steps 101 to 104 described below.

Step 101, the electronic device receives a first input in a target chat interface.

The first input is used for triggering the electronic equipment to identify the chat records in the target chat interface.

In this embodiment, the target chat interface refers to a chat interface of any communication application in the electronic device. Specifically, the chat interface may be a one-to-one chat interface between the user and the friend, or a group chat interface.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, the first input is used to trigger the electronic device to identify a chat record in the target chat interface, and display the identified N contact identifiers. A contact identification is used to indicate a contact of the target chat interface. According to the embodiment of the application, the first input can be decomposed into a plurality of sub-inputs to be executed according to actual use requirements. Specifically, the first input may include a first sub-input and a second sub-input, the first sub-input may be used to determine a target area in the target chat interface, and the second sub-input may be used to determine and display the N contact identifiers according to the chat records in the target area. Specifically, reference may be made to the following steps 105 and 106, and the following detailed description of steps 105a to 105d, which are not repeated herein.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, the first input may be a touch input of a user to a target chat interface of the electronic device, or a touch input of a first control displayed in the target chat interface. The touch input may be any one of the following: single click, double click, long press, sliding according to a preset trajectory, etc. The first control may be a control including: controls for time options, contact options, and keyword options. The determination may be specifically performed according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the present application is not specifically limited.

And 102, the electronic equipment responds to the first input and displays the N contact person identifications.

The N contact person identifications correspond to M chat records in the target chat interface, N and M are positive integers, and M is larger than or equal to N.

It should be noted that, in this embodiment of the application, each of the N contact identifiers is used to indicate one contact, and the contact indicated by the one contact identifier is a contact that sends at least one of the M chat records. That is, each of the N contacts sends at least one chat record on the target chat interface.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, each contact in the N contact identifiers is used to indicate one contact. Specifically, the contact identifier may be any one of the following: contact photo, contact name, contact nickname on target chat interface, etc. The determination may be specifically performed according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the present application is not specifically limited.

In addition, in this embodiment of the application, the N contacts are contacts corresponding to the M chat records. For example, if there are 6 (i.e., M ═ 6) chat records, the chat record of contact a is 3, the chat record of contact B is 2, and the chat record of contact C is 1. Then, the electronic device may display the icons of the 3 contacts (i.e., the contact identifiers) to respectively indicate that: contact A, contact B, and contact C.

It should be noted that, since each contact in the target chat interface can send at least one chat record, M is a positive integer greater than or equal to N.

Step 103, the electronic device receives a second input of the target contact identification.

And the target contact person is a contact person corresponding to the target contact person identification.

The electronic device receives a second input that the user selects a target contact identification from the N contact identifications.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, the second input is used to select a target contact identifier from the N contact identifiers. That is, the second input is an input by which the user selects a target contact identification from the N contact identifications. Specifically, the second input may be a voice input of the electronic device by the user, and the content of the voice input is used for instructing the electronic device to select the target contact identifier from the N contact identifiers. The second input may also be a touch input to the target contact identifier when the electronic device displays N contact identifiers. The touch input may be any one of the following: clicking, double clicking, long pressing, sliding according to a preset track, dragging to a preset area and the like. The determination may be specifically performed according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the present application is not specifically limited.

And step 104, the electronic equipment responds to the second input and generates an image to be shared.

The target chat records to be shared comprise target chat records corresponding to the target contact persons.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the image to be shared includes a target chat record corresponding to a target contact.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, after the electronic device generates the image to be shared, the user may trigger the electronic device to store the image to be shared to the electronic device, or store the image to be shared to another server connected to the electronic device. The detailed implementation can refer to the related art, and is not described herein.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, after the electronic device generates the image to be shared (i.e., step 104), the user may share the image to be shared with friends in other application programs, so that the image to be shared is shared across applications. The sharing can be performed in any one of the following two ways: in the mode 1, after the electronic device generates the image to be shared, the electronic device directly displays the sharing control on the current interface, and the user can trigger the electronic device to send the image to be shared to the chat interface of the friend or chat group selected by the user through input to the sharing control (for example, triggering the reverse control to display the identifier of the application program to be shared, selecting the application program to be shared from the identifiers, further selecting the friend or chat group desired to be shared by the user from the interface of the application program to be shared, and the like) to complete the sharing operation. In the mode 2, after the electronic device generates the image to be shared, the user may trigger the electronic device to store the image to be shared into the electronic device (e.g., a local album), and when the user needs to share, the user may select the image to be shared from the electronic device (e.g., the local album) to directly perform a sharing operation. It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, details of the specific operation process of the saving operation and the sharing operation are not repeated, and specific reference may be made to specific descriptions in related technologies.

For example, fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of an operation of generating an image to be shared. As shown in fig. 2 (a), in a case where the electronic device 00 displays a chat interface 001 (i.e., a target chat interface) of the "technical department group", the user may press the avatar (e.g., a small avatar) of any contact in the chat interface 001 for a long time, and as shown in fig. 2 (b), the electronic device is triggered to display the control 002 in a floating manner on the chat interface 001. The control 002 includes a nickname and a head portrait (i.e. a contact identifier) of a contact in the interface 001, which are respectively: the Chinese medicine composition is prepared from the components of Xiaowang, Xiaoli, Liu and Xiaomei. Then, the user may single-click the selected contact "xiaowang" and "liu" in the control 002, and the electronic device may respond to the single-click input (i.e., the second input), take "xiaowang" and "liu" as the target contact, and perform a screenshot and splicing operation on the chat records of "xiaowang" and "liu" in the chat interface 001, as shown in (c) of fig. 2, and the electronic device may display an image 004 (i.e., an image to be shared) including the chat records of the target contact in the interface 003. The user can share the image 004 as required.

The image generation method provided by the embodiment of the application can receive a first input in a target chat interface, wherein the first input is used for triggering the electronic equipment to identify a chat record in the target chat interface; responding to the first input, and displaying N contact person identifications corresponding to M chat records in the target chat interface; and receiving a second input of the target contact identification; responding to the second input, and generating an image to be shared comprising a target chat record corresponding to the target contact; and the target contact person identifies a corresponding contact person for the target contact person. By the method, the electronic equipment can directly generate the image to be shared comprising the target chat record, so that secondary editing operations such as cutting, splicing and coding of the chat record after screen capture are avoided after the user captures the target chat record, user operation is reduced, user time is saved, and user experience is improved.

Optionally, in conjunction with fig. 1, as shown in fig. 3, the N contacts identify a target area located in the target chat interface. Before the step 102 of "displaying N contact identifiers", the image generation method provided in the embodiment of the present application further includes the following step 105, where the corresponding step 105 may specifically be implemented by the following step 105a and step 105b, and the step 102 may specifically be implemented by the following step 102 a. Fig. 3 illustrates an example in which step 105 is replaced by step 105a and step 105 b.

And 105, the electronic equipment determines the target area according to the first input.

It should be noted that, the following embodiments take the example of determining the first position and the second position by the first input, and further determining the target area as an example, which does not constitute a limitation on the determination of the target area in the present application.

Step 105a, in response to the first input, the electronic device determines a first position and a second position in the target chat interface according to the first input.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, the first input may be decomposed into two sub-inputs, which are used to determine the first location and the second location in the target chat interface, respectively. Where one sub-input (e.g., sub-input a described below) is used to determine a first location and another sub-input (e.g., sub-input B described below) is used to determine a second location. The input mode of the sub-input may refer to the specific description of the input mode of the first input in step 101, which is not described herein again.

The specific manner of determining the first position and the second position may be any of the following manners:

in the method a, when the electronic device displays a target chat interface, a user may trigger the electronic device to enter a target area selection interface by inputting a first target of a contact portrait, a nickname, or a chat record in the target chat interface. The user may then determine the first location by sub-input a to the interface and the second location by sub-input B to the interface.

Mode B, in a case that the electronic device displays a target chat interface, a user may trigger the electronic device to display two location identifiers (i.e., a first location identifier and a second location identifier, where the location identifier is used to mark a location of one chat record in the target interface) on the target chat interface by inputting a contact avatar, a nickname, or a second target of the chat record in the target chat interface. The user may then drag the first location identity to the X location of the target chat interface (i.e., child input a) and drag the second location identity to the Y location of the target chat interface (i.e., child input B). Subsequently, the electronic device determines the location where the first location identifier is located (i.e., the X location) as the first location and determines the location where the second location identifier is located (i.e., the Y location) as the second location.

It should be noted that the sub-input a for determining the first position and the sub-input B for determining the second position may be a specific implementation manner of the second sub-input in the following steps 105C and 105D, that is, the following second sub-input may be specifically implemented by the sub-input a and the sub-input B.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, after the user determines the first position through the sub-input a, the user may slide the target chat interface, and in a case that the content of the target chat interface displayed by the electronic device includes a chat record required by the user, the user may determine the second position through the sub-input B. That is, the first location and the second location may be selected from different locations on the same display interface, and the user may determine the first location and the second location according to actual usage requirements.

And step 105b, the electronic equipment determines the area between the first position and the second position as the target area.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, the electronic device may determine, as the target area, an area between the first location and the second location in the target interface.

For example, assuming that the first position is the position of chat log 1 and the second position is the position of chat log 2, the electronic device may determine a rectangular area between chat logs 1 and 2 in the target chat interface (i.e., the upper and lower boundaries of the rectangle are chat log 1 and chat log 2, respectively; and the left and right boundaries of the rectangle are the left and right boundaries of the display interface of the electronic device) as the target area.

Step 102a, the electronic device responds to the first input, and displays N contact person identifications of the target area.

It should be noted that, in this embodiment of the application, after the electronic device determines the target area, the electronic device may identify the contacts and the chat records in the target area, so that the N identified contact identifiers may be displayed. Each contact in the N contact identifiers is a contact corresponding to at least one chat record in the target area, that is, each contact may correspond to at least one chat record in the target area.

For example, fig. 4 is one of the operation diagrams of the electronic device for determining the target area. As shown in fig. 2 (a), a chat interface 001 (i.e., a target chat interface) of the "technical department group" is displayed on the electronic apparatus 00. As shown in (a) of fig. 4, a user may click a blank area of the chat interface 001 with a large force to trigger the electronic device to display two boundary lines in a floating manner on the chat interface 001, and the user may drag the first boundary line 0051 to a first position and the second boundary line 0052 to a second position manually. The electronic device can determine the area in the chat interface 001 from the first location 0051 to the second location 0052 as the target area. Subsequently, after the user previews the target area without error, the electronic device may identify the chat record in the target area through a triggering operation on the target area, as shown in (b) in fig. 4, and display controls 002 including the contacts "queen", "plum", and "liu" in response to the triggering operation. Thereafter, the user may click on the selected contact "xiaowang" and "liu" in the control 002, and the electronic device may perform screenshot and splicing operations on the chat records of "xiaowang" and "liu" in the chat interface 001 in response to the click input (i.e., the second input), as shown in (c) of fig. 2, and the electronic device may display an image 004 (i.e., an image to be shared) including the chat records of the target contact in the interface 003. The user can share the image 004 as required.

It can be understood that the electronic device may determine, according to the first input, the first position and the second position in the target chat interface, and further determine an area between the first position and the second position as the target area, so that the electronic device may respond to the first input, recognize the chat record of the target area, thereby determining N contacts, and display the identifiers of the N contacts, thereby facilitating a user to directly operate the identifiers of the contacts, for example, select the target contact to operate, so as to generate the image to be shared including the chat record of the target contact.

Optionally, in conjunction with fig. 3, as shown in fig. 5, the first input includes a first sub-input and a second sub-input. The step 105 can be specifically realized by the following steps 105A to 105D. In fig. 5, step 105A and step 105b in fig. 3 are replaced by step 105A to step 105D.

Step 105A, receiving a first sub-input.

The first sub-input can be input to a target chat interface of the electronic device.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, the first sub-input is used to trigger the electronic device to display at least one of a time option, a contact option, and a keyword option.

In addition, in this embodiment of the application, the first sub-input may be a touch input to the target chat interface. For a specific input manner, reference may be made to the specific description of the first input in step 101, which is not described herein again.

And step 105B, the electronic equipment responds to the first sub-input and displays at least one of a time option, a contact option and a keyword option in the target chat interface.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, display manners of the time option, the contact option, and the keyword option are not particularly limited, and may be determined according to actual use requirements. Specifically, the three options may be respectively displayed in a floating manner; a control may also be displayed in hover. The control override may display three options (i.e., the control may include a time option, a contacts option, and a keywords option); three controls can also be respectively displayed in a floating manner, and each control corresponds to one of the three options.

And step 105C, the electronic equipment receives a second sub-input of the target option.

The target option is at least one of a time option, a contact option and a keyword option displayed in the target chat interface.

It should be noted that, in this embodiment of the application, the target option is at least one of a time option, a contact option and a keyword option displayed in the target chat interface, that is, the user may operate at least one of the time option, the contact option and the keyword option through the second sub-input to quickly filter the chat records. The following embodiments exemplify operations of the time option, the contact option, and the keyword option, respectively.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, the electronic device may filter the chat records according to the user input to the time option in the target options. The concrete mode is as follows: the electronic device obtains a time interval determined by the time option in the target option (i.e. the second sub-input may be specifically used to determine the time interval, for example, two times are input to determine a time interval), and then determines, from the M chat records, a chat record whose sending time is within the time interval, and performs highlighting. That is, the electronic device can determine that the sending and receiving time of each of the at least one chat log is within the duration indicated by the target option.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, the electronic device may filter the chat records according to the input of the user to the contact option in the target options. The concrete mode is as follows: the electronic equipment acquires the contact person selected by the user from the contact person options, then searches the chat records sent by the contact person from the M chat records according to the selected contact person, and highlights the chat records. That is, the electronic device screens out the chat records sent by the contact from the M chat records according to the contact selected by the user in the contact option.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, the electronic device may filter the chat records according to the input of the user to the keyword option in the target options. The concrete mode is as follows: the electronic equipment obtains preset keywords input in the keyword options, and searches the contents of the M chat records according to the preset keywords. Then, all chat contents containing the preset keywords are highlighted. That is, the electronic device may screen out the M chat records that include the keyword.

The highlighting mode may be any of the following: displaying the screened chatting records in different colors, displaying the screened chatting records in different fonts, displaying the screened chatting records in a flashing special effect, and the like. In addition, in the actual use process, at least one of the three screening methods can be used for screening.

Step 105D, the electronic equipment responds to the second sub-input, and at least one chat record corresponding to the target option is determined in the target chat interface; and determining the target area according to the position of the at least one chat record.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, the determining the target area according to the position of the at least one chat record includes: the electronic equipment determines the position of a first chat record in the at least one chat record as a first position; and determining the position of the last chat record in the at least one chat record as a second position. Then, the electronic device determines an area between the first location and the second location as a target area.

It should be noted that, in this embodiment of the application, a position where a first chat record in the at least one chat record is located, that is, a start position of a chat record in the at least one chat record, also refers to a start position of a chat record in the at least one chat record filtered according to the target option. Similarly, the position of the last chat record in the at least one chat record, that is, the end position of the chat record in the at least one chat record, also refers to the end position of the chat record in the at least one chat record screened according to the target option.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, the user may further perform fine adjustment on the determined first position and the second position. Specifically, the user may trigger the electronic device to update and display the first location by inputting a third target for the first location (e.g., dragging an indicator of the first location); the user may also trigger the electronic device to update the display of the second location by a fourth target input to the second location (e.g., dragging an indicator of the second location). In this way, the electronic device may determine the updated area between the first location and the second location as the target area.

It should be noted that, in this embodiment of the application, when the first location and the second location determined through the above steps 105A to 105D do not meet the user requirement, the user may trigger the electronic device to repeatedly execute the above steps 105A to 105D to re-determine the first location and the second location.

Fig. 6 is a second schematic view illustrating the operation of determining the target area by the electronic device. As shown in fig. 2 (a), in a case where the electronic device 00 displays a chat interface 001 (i.e., a target chat interface) of the "technical department group", the user may double-click a blank area of the chat interface 001 to trigger the electronic device to hover a display control 005 on the chat interface 001, as shown in fig. 6 (a). The user may then edit the time screening options in the control 005 via a first input, such as setting the start time to 10:00 today and the end time to 14:00 today. As shown in fig. 6 (b), the electronic device can determine a first location 0051 and a second location 0052 in response to the first input, wherein the first location 0051 is the location of the beginning chat history after the start time 10:00 and the second location is the location of the last chat history before the end time 14: 00. The electronic device determines the area in the chat interface 001 from the first location 0051 to the second location 0052 as the target area. Subsequently, after the user previews the target area without error, the electronic device may identify the chat record in the target area through a triggering operation on the target area, as shown in (c) in fig. 6, and display controls 002 including the contacts "queen", "plum" and "liu" in response to the triggering operation. Thereafter, the user may click on the selected contact "xiaowang" and "liu" in the control 002, and the electronic device may perform screenshot and splicing operations on the chat records of "xiaowang" and "liu" in the chat interface 001 in response to the click input (i.e., the second input), as shown in (c) of fig. 2, and the electronic device may display an image 004 (i.e., an image to be shared) including the chat records of the target contact in the interface 003. The user can share the image 004 as required.

It can be understood that the electronic device may trigger the electronic device to display at least one of the time option, the contact option, and the keyword option through the first sub-input, and trigger the electronic device to determine a location of a first chat record in the screened chat records as a first location and determine a location of a last chat record in the screened chat records as a second location by folding a second sub-input of at least one option (i.e., the target option) among the three options. Therefore, the electronic equipment can conveniently determine the target area according to the first position and the second position, and the identifications of the N contact persons in the target area can be displayed, so that the subsequent operation of a user is facilitated.

Alternatively, referring to fig. 1, as shown in fig. 7, the step 104 may be specifically realized by the following steps 104a and 104 b.

And 104a, the electronic equipment responds to the second input, and determines a target chat record corresponding to the target contact from the M chat records.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, the manner of determining the target chat record corresponding to the target contact may be any of the following manners: in a first way, the electronic device may obtain the target contact (i.e., the contact indicated by the target contact identifier), and determine, from the M chat records, that the chat record sent by the target contact is the target chat record. And secondly, the electronic equipment respectively compares the target contact person identification selected by the user with the contact person identifications corresponding to the M chat records, and determines the chat records corresponding to all identifications identical to the target contact person identification as the target chat records. The determination may be specifically performed according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the present application is not specifically limited.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, after the electronic device determines the target chat record in response to the second input, the electronic device may display a target preview interface including M chat records, so as to facilitate the user to preview and determine. The target chat records can display a first identifier (such as a check identifier) which can be used for indicating that the chat records are the target chat records and are displayed when the image to be shared is generated, and the chat records except the target chat records in the M chat records display a second identifier (such as a check identifier which can be used for indicating that the chat records are non-target chat records and are hidden when the image to be shared is generated), so that the target identifiers determined by the user can be distinguished.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, if there are a plurality of consecutive chat records displaying the second identifier, the electronic device is, for example, convenient to display a hidden line to temporarily hide the chat records of the plurality of second identifiers. And if the user needs to view the hidden specific content, touch input can be carried out on the hidden line, and the electronic equipment is triggered to display all the chat records displaying the second identifier at the position.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, in a case that the target chat record may display the first identifier and chat records other than the target chat record in the M chat records display the second identifier, the user may add or delete the determined target chat record. Specifically, in a case where G target chat records are determined among M chat records (where G is a positive integer less than or equal to M), the user may reselect J chat records from among (M-G) chat records to add to the target chat records (where J is a positive integer greater than or equal to 1), and deselect Q contacts from among G chat records (where Q is a positive integer greater than or equal to 1, and Q is less than or equal to G), so that the number of finally determined target chat records is (G + J-Q), and then, the electronic device updates the target chat records. The chat records can be added by switching the second identifier to the first identifier; the chat history may be reduced by switching the second identifier to the first identifier. The specific switching manner may refer to the description of the checking and the canceling in the related art, and details are not repeated herein.

And step 104b, the electronic equipment generates an image to be shared according to the target chat record.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, the mode that the electronic device generates the image to be shared according to the target chat record may be any one of the following modes: in the first way, the electronic device displays all chat records with the first identifier displayed in the target preview interface (for a detailed description of the target preview interface, see the related description in step 104a above), and hides all chat records with the second identifier, so as to generate the image to be shared. In a second mode, the electronic device may perform image cropping on each target chat record, and perform image stitching according to the sending time of each chat record, so as to generate an image to be shared. The determination may be specifically performed according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the present application is not specifically limited. It should be noted that the following embodiments (i.e., step 104b1 and step 104b2) are exemplified by taking the second mode as an example.

It should be noted that, in the process of operating the target chat record by the electronic device to obtain the image to be shared, mainly generating an image that can be directly known by the user through vision, automatically recognizing and converting the voice in the chat record into characters, and storing the first frame image of the video in the recording of the coming day.

It can be appreciated that the electronic device can determine, in response to the second input, a target chat record corresponding to the target contact from the M chat records, and generate the image to be shared according to the target chat record. Therefore, the electronic equipment can directly generate the image to be shared including the target chat record, secondary editing of the user is avoided, operation of the convenience user is reduced, the convenience user uses the electronic equipment, and the use experience of the user is improved.

Optionally, with reference to fig. 7, as shown in fig. 8, the target chat log includes S chat logs, where S is an integer greater than or equal to 2. The step 104b can be realized by the following steps 104b1 and 104b 2.

And step 104b1, the electronic equipment performs cutting operation on the target chat interface to obtain S images to be spliced.

Each image to be stitched in the S images to be stitched comprises one chat record in the S chat records.

In the embodiment of the present application, S is a positive integer less than or equal to M.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, when the target chat records include S chat records, the electronic device may perform a cropping operation on the S chat records to obtain S images to be stitched. Each image to be stitched in the S images to be stitched indicates a chat record.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, a specific process of the electronic device for performing the cutting operation on the S chat records may include the following steps: and step A, the electronic equipment determines a region to be cut according to the position of one chat record in the target chat record, and the region to be cut can completely envelop all contents recorded in two passing days. And step B, the electronic equipment cuts the image to be spliced according to the area to be cut. And step C, the electronic equipment repeatedly executes the steps (namely the step A and the step B) for S times so as to obtain S images to be spliced. It should be noted that, in the actual operation process, when step a is executed, S regions to be cropped may be directly determined, and then S images to be stitched are obtained by cropping S regions to be cropped in step B. The determination may be specifically performed according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the present application is not specifically limited.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, when the electronic device cuts out S chat records to obtain S images to be stitched, sending time of each chat record may be respectively recorded, and the sending time may be used as a basis for a stitching sequence of the images to be stitched corresponding to the chat record.

And step 104b2, the electronic device performs splicing operation on the S images to be spliced to generate images to be shared.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, the electronic device may clip S chat records to obtain S images to be stitched, and sequentially stitch the S images to be shared according to the sending time sequence of the S chat records.

Fig. 9 is an operation diagram illustrating an operation of generating an image to be shared by electronic device stitching. As shown in fig. 9 (a), in a case where the user operates the electronic device to display a control 002 including contacts "king", "plumet" and "bang", the user may click on the control 002 to select the contact "king", and the electronic device may take the "king" as a target contact in response to the click input (i.e., the second input), as shown in fig. 9 (b), and the electronic device performs screenshot on the chat record of the "king" in the chat interface 001 to obtain a screenshot 006 of the first chat record and a screenshot 007 of the second chat record. Then, as shown in fig. 9 (c), the electronic device may stitch the screenshot 006 of the first chat record and the screenshot 007 of the second chat record to obtain an image 008 (i.e., an image to be shared). The electronic device may display the image 008 in the interface 003.
