In order to solve the problems in the prior art, an embodiment of the present application illustrates a display device, where the display device at least includes: a display and a controller. A flow chart of the interaction of the display device with the user can be seen in fig. 4.

The display is configured to perform step S101 to present a menu list.

Fig. 5 is a presentation interface of a display showing when the display presents a menu list according to a possible embodiment. The menu list 1 may be presented in the form of a floating window, and the menu list includes at least one control 11.

The Android UI system is mainly adopted by display equipment, the Android UI system takes controls as basic display units, and each control has an attribute: a focal point; the focus state of each control is only two: with or without the control that has focus, there is by default no change in appearance, and in order to indicate to the user which control currently has focus, the focus needs to be displayed by the focus frame, so that when focus shifts, the focus frame appears on the control that newly acquired focus.

For example, when the interface 11 in fig. 5 obtains the focus for the web control, the interface is shown on the display, and as can be seen from the interface 11, the focus frame appears on the web control.

Typically, there is a "parent-child" relationship between the various controls. In the actual application process, the controls can be divided into the following according to the parent-child relationship between the controls: primary control, secondary control, tertiary control … …. The first-level control is a control set in a setting menu; the primary control has no father control (superior control); typically, the user can invoke the primary control directly. The secondary control is a sub control (lower control) of the primary control; the user needs to call the corresponding secondary control through the primary control. Specifically, the user clicks the first-level control, the display displays a menu list corresponding to the first-level control, and the menu list corresponding to the first-level control includes a child control for the first-level control. For example, when the user clicks the web control (primary control), the controller controls the display to display a menu list of web controls, which may be referred to as the interface 12 in fig. 5, where the menu list of web controls includes a web connection control, an internet control, a limited connection control, and a wireless connection control. The third-level control is a sub-control (lower-level control) of the second-level control, and a user needs to call the corresponding second-level control through the first-level control and then call the corresponding third-level control through the second-level control. For example, when the user clicks the web control (primary control), the controller controls the display to show a menu list of web controls, which may be referred to in particular as interface 12 in fig. 5; when the user clicks the network connection control (secondary control), the controller controls the display to display a menu list of network connection controls, which may specifically refer to interface 13 in fig. 5, where the menu list of network connection controls includes a connection test control and a network test control.

In this embodiment, the hierarchy of the display device including the control is not limited, and the control of the corresponding hierarchy may be set according to a requirement in an actual application process, where the applicant does not make much limitation.

The user executes step S102 to output a focus frame moving instruction as required.

The output form of the focus frame movement instruction is not limited in this embodiment. For example, in one possible embodiment, the user may output a focus frame movement instruction via a remote control. For another example, in a feasible embodiment, the controller may be installed with voice assistant software, and the corresponding user may directly output the focus frame moving instruction. In the process of practical application, the output manner of the focus frame moving instruction may be, but is not limited to, the above two manners.

In response to the moving instruction of the focus frame, the controller is configured to execute step S103 to read a first position, where the moved focus frame is located in the display presentation interface;

the representation of the first location is various. For example, in one possible embodiment, the first position may be the distance between the four borders (top, left, bottom and right borders) of the focus frame and the display area, specifically referring to the interface 21 in fig. 6, wherein the first position may be represented by (a1, a2, a3, a4), wherein a1 is the distance between the top end of the focus frame and the top end of the display area, a2 (not shown in the figure) is the distance between the left border of the focus frame and the left border of the display area, a3 is the distance between the bottom end of the focus frame and the bottom end of the display area, and a4 is the distance between the right border of the focus frame and the right border of the display area. For another example, in a possible embodiment, the first position may be coordinate values of four vertices (upper left vertex, lower right vertex, and upper right vertex) of the focus frame. The coordinate system is not limited in this embodiment, and any vertex of a display may be used as the coordinate system in a feasible embodiment. For example, the interface 22 in fig. 6 constructs a rectangular coordinate system with the lower left corner of the display as the origin of coordinates, and the coordinates of the four vertices of the focus frame in the rectangular coordinate system are b1(X1, Y1), b2(X2, Y2), b3(X3, Y3), and b4(X4, Y4). The first position may be represented in other ways by requirements of subsequent calculations during the course of practical application, without the applicant making any undue restrictions.

In the process of practical application, in order to reduce the data processing amount of the controller, the embodiment of the application limits some application scenarios, and in the application scenarios, the controller may not read the first position, so as to reduce the data processing amount of the controller, and further improve the operation speed of the whole display device.

In the embodiment of the present application, a reading method of the first position is provided, and specifically, refer to fig. 7. Fig. 7 is a flowchart illustrating a first position reading manner according to a possible embodiment, wherein the controller is configured to execute steps S11-S152.

S11 reading a first ID, wherein the first ID is the control ID of the first control;

in the application, each control is configured with configuration information, the configuration information may include, but is not limited to, an attribute of the control, a control ID of the control, and prompt information of the control, and the configuration information is stored in an information list. The hierarchy of the control may be determined from the control ID.

S12 determining a first level according to the first ID, the first level being a level of a first control;

in the technical solution provided by this embodiment, the purpose of reading the first position is to calculate the display position (also referred to as the second position in this embodiment) of the prompt message by using the first position. However, no hints are configured for the primary control. When the first control is a primary control, the controller continues to read the first position, which is a waste of computing resources of the controller.

S13, judging whether the first level is one level; if the first level is one level, the first location is not read.

There are various ways to determine whether the first level is a first level. For example, in some feasible embodiments, the IDs of different hierarchical controls can be set to different lengths, and then the control can be determined to be a control of several levels according to the number of characters contained in the ID of the control. For example, in one possible embodiment where the control ID of the primary control comprises a characters, the control ID of the secondary control comprises B characters, and the control ID of the tertiary control comprises C characters … …, the controller may determine the first level based on the number of characters contained in the control ID. For another example, in some feasible embodiments, different identifiers may be set for IDs of different hierarchical controls, and then whether the control is a primary control may be determined according to the identifier included in the ID of the control. For example, in a feasible embodiment, the control ID of the primary control includes an identifier a, the control ID of the secondary control includes an identifier B, and the control ID of the tertiary control includes an identifier C … …, and the controller may determine whether the control is the primary control according to the identifier included in the control ID.

In the practical application process, the implementation manner of determining whether the first level is one may be, but is not limited to, the above two.

It is worth noting that in the process of practical application, other manners besides the control ID may be adopted to determine the level of the first control, which is not described herein again by the applicant herein, and all schemes that the first position is not read after the first control is determined to be the first-level control are within the protection scope of the present application.

If the first level is not one level, executing step S14 to determine whether the prompt message can be read in the target information list, where the target information list is an information list of the first control; if the prompt message is not read, the first position is not read;

according to the technical scheme provided by the implementation, the purpose of reading the first position is to calculate the display position of the prompt message by using the first position subsequently. However, in an application scenario where the configuration information list of the first control does not include the prompt information, it is needless to say that the controller continues to read the first position, and based on the scheme shown in this embodiment of the application, whether the controller can read the prompt information in the target information list in advance is determined, and then whether to read the first position is determined according to a determination result, so that the data processing amount of the controller is reduced.

There are various ways to determine whether the prompt information can be read in the target information list. For example, in some possible embodiments, the prompt may be stored in a fixed location of the target information list, and when the controller determines that the first control is not the primary control, the controller reads data directly to the fixed location of the target information list, and the controller determines whether the prompt may be read in the target information list by whether the data is read in the fixed location. For example, in a feasible embodiment, the fixed position may be a storage position corresponding to the nth character to M characters of the target information list, in the process of configuring the target information list, a designer may write the prompt information of the first control in the storage positions of the N characters to M characters, and when the controller determines that the first control is not the primary control, the controller directly reads the prompt information from the storage positions of the nth character to M characters of the target information list; if the data is read, prompt information is recorded in the target information list; if the data is not read, no prompt information is recorded in the target information list. For another example, in some feasible embodiments, the hint information identifier may be configured, and the controller may determine whether the target information list contains hint information according to whether the hint information identifier is read. For example, in a feasible embodiment, the identifier of the hint information is an identifier a, and when the controller determines that the first control is not the primary control, the controller searches for the identifier a in the target information list; if the identifier A is found, prompt information is recorded in the target information list; if the to-be-identified A is not searched, no prompt information is recorded in the target information list.

In the actual application process, the implementation manner of judging whether the prompt information can be read in the target information list may be, but is not limited to, the above two.

When the user invokes a control at a different level, the focus frame needs to be moved between the controls at the different levels. For example, referring to fig. 5, in the initial state, the focus frame is located on the network control (the primary control), and when the user wants to invoke the network connection control (the secondary control), the user needs to touch the network control, and the display content of the display jumps from the system menu to the network menu in the process of controlling the focus frame to jump from the network control to the network connection control. The display content of the display jumps from the system menu to the network menu, which may be referred to as a hierarchy change animation in this embodiment; in the above process, it takes a certain time for the UI interface to draw the web menu, and thus the controller cannot immediately read the first location information. When the user calls the control of the same level, the UI interface does not need to redraw a new menu interface, and the controller can immediately read the first position in the application scene. In order to ensure that the controller can confirm to know the reading time of the first position, in the technical solution shown in the embodiment of the present application, the controller can confirm the reading time of the first position by whether the control hierarchy changes.

If the prompt message is not read, the controller executes step S15 to determine whether the control hierarchy is changed;

there are various ways to determine whether the control hierarchy has changed.

For example, in a feasible embodiment, whether the control hierarchy changes can be judged through the control ID. Specifically, in some embodiments, the controller reads a second level, where the second level is a level of a second control, and the second control is a control corresponding to the focus frame before movement; in response to the focus movement command, the controller reads the first level, and the controller determines whether the control level is changed by determining whether the first level is consistent with the second level. For example, in a possible embodiment, where the second level is two levels and the first level is three levels, the controller may determine that a change has occurred to the control level.

As another example, in a possible embodiment, focus movement instructions may be differentiated. And the corresponding focus movement in the process of controlling the focus to move between the controls in the same hierarchy is designated as a first control instruction, the corresponding focus movement in the process of controlling the focus to move between the controls in different hierarchies is designated as a second control instruction, and the first control instruction is different from the second control instruction. In response to a first control instruction, the controller determines that no change in focus has occurred; in response to the second control instruction, the controller determines that a change in focus has occurred.

In the process of actual application, the implementation manners of determining whether the control hierarchy changes may be, but are not limited to, the above two.

If the change occurs, executing step S161 to control the display to play a hierarchy change animation; the second level is a level of a second control, and the second control is a control corresponding to the focus frame before movement;

in response to the end level change animation playing/control level not changing, executing step S162 to read the first position;

the controller is configured to execute step S104 to generate a second location according to the first location information, the first location being associated with the second location;

the embodiment of the application shows that a first position is associated with a second position; wherein the association between the first position and the second position may be that the center of the first position and the center of the second position are located on the same horizontal plane, specifically referring to the interface 31 in fig. 8, fig. 8 is a schematic view of a display interface of the display according to a possible embodiment; it can be seen from the interface 31 that the centre of the first location 2 is located on the same horizontal plane as the centre of the second location 3. The first position and the second position can be associated with each other such that the top end of the first position and the top end of the second position are located on the same horizontal plane, and in particular, see the interface 32 in fig. 8, it can be seen from the interface 32 that the top end of the first position and the top end of the second position are located on the same horizontal plane. The first position and the second position can be associated with each other, and the bottom end of the first position and the bottom end of the second position are located on the same horizontal plane, specifically, see the interface 33 in fig. 8, and it can be seen from the interface 33 that the bottom end of the first position and the bottom end of the second position are located on the same horizontal plane.

The embodiment of the present application merely describes three relationships between the first position and the second position by way of example, and in the process of practical application, the relationships between the first position and the second position may be, but are not limited to, the three manners described above.

In this embodiment, the second position is a display position (also referred to as a region) of the prompt message, and in some feasible embodiments, the width of the second position may be kept constant. In order to obtain as large a display area (second position) as possible for displaying the prompt information, the embodiment of the present application illustrates a method for generating the second position, specifically, refer to fig. 9, where fig. 9 is a flowchart illustrating a second position generating manner according to a possible embodiment, and the controller is configured to execute steps S21 to S221/S222.

Step S21 of determining that the first center ordinate is greater than or equal to the second center ordinate;

the rectangular coordinate system referred to in this embodiment may use any vertex of the display as the origin of coordinates. Wherein the first position may include: a first top end ordinate, a first bottom end ordinate and a first center ordinate, wherein the first top end ordinate is an ordinate of the first position, the first bottom end ordinate is an ordinate of the bottom end of the first position, and the first center ordinate is an ordinate of the center of the first position; in this application, the first position is equal to the position of the focus frame after the movement is equal to the position of the first control.

If the first center ordinate is greater than or equal to the second center ordinate, step S221 is executed where the second top ordinate is equal to the first top ordinate, and the second top ordinate is the ordinate of the top of the second position;

if the first center ordinate is smaller than the second center ordinate, step S222 is executed where the second bottom ordinate is the ordinate of the bottom end of the second position.

For example, fig. 10A is a schematic diagram illustrating a variation of a presentation interface of a display according to a possible embodiment, in an interface 4-1 of fig. 10A, a control 2 is a first control, and a focus frame is located on an upper layer of the control 2. In the present embodiment, a lower right corner of the display in the coordinate system is an origin, an extension line of a lower boundary of the display is taken as an X-axis, and an extension line of the lower boundary of the display is taken as an X-axis. The coordinates of the center of the first position are A (X5, Y5) and the coordinates of the center of the display are B (X6, Y6). The controller compares Y6 with Y5, Y5> Y6, and the ordinate of the top end of the second position is equal to the ordinate of the top end of the first position, as shown in FIG. 10A, interface 4-2. It can be seen from the figure that the display position of the focus frame is the same as the top end of the display position of the prompt message. In some embodiments, if the prompt contains more content, the prompt may be continuously presented downward starting from the top of the focus frame until the edge of the display is presented, as shown in fig. 10A for example, interface 4-3.

For example, fig. 10B is a schematic diagram illustrating a variation of a presentation interface of a display according to a feasible embodiment, in an interface 4-1 of fig. 10B, a control 2 is a first control, and a focus frame is located on an upper layer of the control 2. The coordinates of the center of the first position are C (X7, Y7) and the coordinates of the center of the display are B (X6, Y6). In the present application, the controller compares Y6 with Y7, Y7< Y6, and the ordinate of the second bottom end is the ordinate of the bottom end of the second position, and the specific demonstration effect can be seen from the interface 5-2 of FIG. 10B. It can be seen from the figure that the display position of the focus frame is the same as the bottom end of the display position of the prompt message. In some embodiments, if the content of the prompt message is more than the content of the content, the prompt message may be continuously presented upward starting from the bottom of the first position until the edge of the display is presented, which may be referred to as interface 5-3 in fig. 10B.

The text in most languages is displayed from left to right, and the controls for the displays in these countries are also typically presented to the left (these languages may be referred to as the first language in this embodiment). However, the text of some languages, such as hebrew, bose, arabic, etc. (these languages may be referred to as the second language in this embodiment), is displayed from right to left. In order to meet the requirements of more users, the technical scheme shown in the embodiment of the application divides the language suitable for the display into a first language and a second language, and when the current language of the display device is the first language, the control is displayed on the left side of the display interface; and when the current language of the display equipment is the second language, the control is displayed on the right side of the display interface.

FIG. 11 is a presentation interface of a display showing a second language of a current language according to one possible embodiment, wherein the interface 6-1 is a presentation interface of a system menu; the interface 6-2 is a display interface of a network menu, and the interface 6-3 is a display interface of a network connection menu.

In the display device shown in this embodiment, the first position may be located on the left side of the display or on the right side of the display. To avoid occlusion of the control by the reminder information, in some feasible embodiments, the controller needs to predetermine whether the first position is located on the left side or the right side of the display. Referring to fig. 12, fig. 12 is a flowchart illustrating a second position generating manner according to a possible embodiment, wherein the controller is configured to execute steps S31-S321/S322.

Step S31 determines whether the first center abscissa is larger than the second center abscissa.

The first position in this application further comprises: a first left boundary abscissa, a first right boundary abscissa, and a first center abscissa, the first left boundary abscissa being the abscissa of the first position left boundary, the first right boundary abscissa being the abscissa of the first position right boundary, the first center abscissa being the abscissa of the first position center;

if the first center abscissa is greater than the second center abscissa, performing step S321 where the second right boundary abscissa is less than or equal to the first left boundary abscissa, the second right boundary abscissa being the abscissa of the second position right boundary;

if the first center abscissa is less than the second center abscissa, the second left border abscissa is greater than or equal to the first right border abscissa, which is the abscissa of the second position left border, is performed in step S322.

For example, fig. 13A is a schematic diagram illustrating a variation of a presentation interface of a display according to a possible embodiment, in an interface 7-1 of fig. 13A, a control 2 is a first control, and a focus frame is located on an upper layer of the control 2. In the present embodiment, a lower right corner of the display in the coordinate system is an origin, an extension line of a lower boundary of the display is taken as an X-axis, and an extension line of the lower boundary of the display is taken as an X-axis. The coordinates of the center of the first position are D (X8, Y8) and the coordinates of the center of the display are B (X6, Y6). The controller compares X6 with X8Y 8> Y6, the vertex ordinate of the second position being equal to the vertex ordinate of the first position; x8> X6 the second right boundary abscissa is less than or equal to the first left boundary abscissa, and a specific demonstration effect can be seen in the interface 7-2 of fig. 13A. As can be seen from the interface 7-2, the display position of the focus frame is the same as the top end of the display position of the prompt message, and the display position of the prompt message is located on the left side of the display position of the focus frame. In some embodiments, if the prompt contains more content, the prompt may be continuously presented downward starting from the top of the first position until the edge of the display is presented, as shown in fig. 13A, in particular, in interface 7-3.

For example, fig. 13B is a schematic diagram illustrating a variation of a display interface of a display according to a feasible embodiment, in an interface 8-1 of fig. 13B, a control 2 is a first control, and a focus frame is located on an upper layer of the control 2. The coordinates of the center of the first position are E (X9, Y9) and the coordinates of the center of the display are B (X6, Y6). The controller compares X6 with X9, Y6 with Y9, Y9< Y6, the bottom ordinate of the second position being equal to the bottom ordinate of the first position; x8> X6 the second right boundary abscissa is less than or equal to the first left boundary abscissa, and a specific demonstration effect can be seen in the interface 8-2 of fig. 13B. It can be seen from the figure that the display position of the focus frame is the same as the bottom end of the display position of the prompt message, and the display position of the prompt message is located on the left side of the display position of the focus frame. In some embodiments, if the prompt contains more content, the prompt may be continuously presented downward starting from the top of the first position until the edge of the display is presented, as shown in fig. 13B, in particular, interface 8-3.

The embodiment of the present application further illustrates a method for generating a second position, specifically, referring to fig. 14, where fig. 14 is a flowchart illustrating a manner of generating a second position according to a feasible embodiment, and the controller is configured to execute steps S41 to S421/S422.

Step S41, judging whether the language currently adopted by the display is the first language;

in the embodiment of the application, each time the adjustment of the adjusted language is completed, the controller stores the language currently adopted by the display device. The specific storage mode may be storage in the form of identification bits, for example, the first identification bit corresponds to the first language, and the second identification bit corresponds to the second language. When the control needs to be judged to be positioned on the left side or the right side of the display, the controller judges whether the adopted language is the first language or not by reading the identification bit.

The first control comprises a first top end abscissa and a first bottom end abscissa, wherein the first top end abscissa is the abscissa of the top end of the first control, and the first bottom end abscissa is the abscissa of the bottom end of the first control;

if the current language is set as the first language, executing step S421, where the abscissa of the second left boundary is greater than or equal to the abscissa of the first right boundary, the abscissa of the second left boundary is the abscissa of the left boundary at the second position, and when the current language of the display device is the first language, the control is displayed on the left side of the display interface;

if the current language setting is the second language, step S422 is executed, where the abscissa of the second right boundary is less than or equal to the abscissa of the first left boundary, the abscissa of the second right boundary is the abscissa of the right boundary at the second position, and the control is displayed on the right side of the display interface when the current language of the display device is the second language.

In the optional technical solution shown in the embodiment of the present application, the first-level control is not configured with the prompt information, and the possible controls that are greater than or equal to the second-level control are configured with the prompt information. When the first control is a secondary control, the user does not need to jump to the primary control from the secondary control, because all the primary controls are configured with prompt information. When the first control is a three-level or more-than-three-level control, the user may jump to the upper level of the first control or jump to the lower level of the first control. In order to enable a user to more intuitively judge whether the first control is a secondary control which can only jump to a lower-level control or a tertiary or more-than-tertiary control which can jump to an upper-level control and a lower-level control. According to the technical scheme, the display position of the prompt message corresponding to the secondary control is different from the display position of the prompt message corresponding to the tertiary or more-tertiary control. Specifically, if the first level is two-level, the second right boundary abscissa is smaller than the first left boundary abscissa, or the second left boundary abscissa is larger than the first right boundary abscissa; if the first level is greater than or equal to the second level, the second right boundary abscissa is equal to the first left boundary abscissa, or the second left boundary abscissa is equal to the first right boundary abscissa.

For example, fig. 15 is a schematic diagram illustrating a display presentation interface according to a possible embodiment, wherein the interface 9-1 is a presentation interface of a display in an application scenario in which the first level is two levels. As can be seen in interface 9-1, a prompt is presented adjacent to the first control. The interface 9-2 is a display interface of the display in the application scene of which the first level is more than or equal to three levels. As can be seen in interface 9-2, the prompt is presented spaced from the first control presentation.

The embodiment of the application is only an exemplary manner of presenting the prompt information, and in the process of actual application, the presentation position of the prompt information in the application scene with the first level being two levels and the presentation position of the prompt information in the application scene with the first level being more than or equal to three levels may be, but are not limited to, the above manners.

The description of the second position generation process is thus completed.

The controller is configured to execute step S105 to control the display to display prompt information of a first control at a second position, where the first control is a control corresponding to the moved focus frame.

To present the prompt information in a more striking manner, the embodiment of the present application illustrates a method for presenting the prompt information, and specifically, referring to fig. 16, fig. 16 is a flowchart of the method for presenting the prompt information according to a feasible embodiment, wherein the controller is configured to execute steps S51 to S54.

Step S51, determining whether the prompt contains a picture;

if the prompt message contains a picture, executing step S52 to control the display to display the picture;

in the scheme shown in the embodiment of the application, the controller controls the display to preferentially display the prompt message of the picture type. The picture can play a role of prompting the user in a more striking way.

If the prompt message does not contain a picture, executing step S53 to determine whether the prompt message contains characters;

if the prompt message does not contain the picture/finish rendering of the picture prompt message, executing step S54 to control the display to display characters;

optionally, the picture is always positioned above the text in the display process.

According to the scheme shown in the embodiment of the application, the prompt message of the picture type is always positioned above the prompt message of the character type. The picture can play the effect of suggestion to the user in a more striking mode, and then promotes user's experience and feels.

For example, FIG. 17 is a schematic diagram of a display presentation interface shown in accordance with one possible embodiment. The interface 10-1 is a display interface of the display in an application scene where the prompt information includes text type prompt information and picture type prompt information. As can be seen from the interface 10-1, the picture-type reminder is always located above the text-type reminder. The interface 10-2 is a display interface of the display in an application scene where the prompt information includes text type prompt information and picture type prompt information. As can be seen from the interface 10-2, the picture-type reminder is always located above the text-type reminder.
