The following description is of embodiments of the invention. It is intended that the general principles of the invention be defined by the claims and not by way of limitation.
FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a computer device 100 according to an embodiment of the invention. As shown in fig. 1, the computer device 100 has a display device 108, and the computer device 100 further includes: a memory unit 104 and a processing unit 102. The processing unit 102 is electrically coupled to the memory unit 104 and the display device 108.
In some embodiments, the computer device 100 may be a personal computer (personal computer, PC), a notebook computer (laptop computer), a tablet computer (tablet computer), a smart phone, or the like. In some embodiments, the processing unit 102 may be a controller (controller), a central processing unit (central processing unit, CPU), a graphics processor (graphic processing unit, GPU), a field programmable logic array (field programmable gate array, FPGA), a microcontroller (micro control unit, MCU), or a microprocessor (micro processing unit, MPU), etc., but the invention is not limited thereto.
In some embodiments, the storage unit 104 may be a dynamic random access Memory (Dynamic Random Access Memory, DRAM), a static random access Memory (Static Random Access Memory, SRAM), a flash Memory (flash Memory), an EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory, EEPROM), a Non-Volatile Memory (Non-Volatile Memory), a Hard Disk (HDD), a Solid State Disk (SSD), or the like, but the present invention is not limited thereto.
In some embodiments, the display device 108 may be a plasma display (Plasma Display Panel), a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), a thin film transistor liquid crystal display (Thin film transistor liquid crystal display, TFT-LCD), or a light emitting diode display (LED display), etc., but the present invention is not limited thereto.
Although FIG. 1 only shows the processing unit 102 connected to a display device 108, in other embodiments the processing unit 102 may be connected to multiple display devices, but the invention is not limited thereto.
FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a display area of the display device 108 according to an embodiment of the invention. FIG. 3 is a diagram of a window configuration table 120 according to one embodiment of the invention. Please refer to fig. 1, fig. 2 and fig. 3 simultaneously to illustrate each of the following embodiments.
In some embodiments, the computer device 100 is installed with a plurality of first programs and a plurality of second programs, and the plurality of first programs and the plurality of second programs may be stored in hardware (e.g., the storage unit 104, other memory, or hard disk) having a storage function in the computer device 100. In the computer device 100, a database is created, and the created database is stored in the storage unit 104. The computer device 100 may then automatically arrange the windows displayed on the display device 108 via the database. How the processing unit 102 creates the database stored in the storage unit 104 will be described below with reference to fig. 1, 2 and 3.
In the computer device 100, the processing unit 102 creates a database, and the database has a plurality of first identifications corresponding to a plurality of first programs, a plurality of second identifications corresponding to a plurality of second programs, a plurality of operation modes, and a plurality of window configurations. In the database, each of the plurality of operation modes corresponds to each of the plurality of window configurations, and each of the plurality of operation modes corresponds to each of the plurality of first programs. In addition, in the database, each of the plurality of first programs has at least one corresponding second program, and each of the plurality of window configurations corresponds to the corresponding first program and at least one second program.
As shown in fig. 2, the processing unit 102 can flexibly set up the database by performing program editing on the processing unit 102. In one embodiment, the processing unit 102 sets a plurality of application programs as the first program, for example: the game program, the text editing program, and the like are set as the first program, but the present invention is not limited thereto. In the database, the processing unit 102 sets the first recognition W1 to correspond to the game program, and sets the second recognition W2 to correspond to the text editing program.
As shown in fig. 2, the processing unit 102 may further set other application programs as the second program, for example: the video recording program, the video communication program, and the like are set as the second program, but the present invention is not limited thereto. In the database, the second identification X1 is set to correspond to the video recording program, and the second identification X2 is set to correspond to the video communication program. The processing unit 102 in the computer device 100 can easily identify the first program or the second program that has been started through the database first identifiers W1 and W2 or the second identifiers X1 and X2. In addition, the first identifications W1 and W2 or the second identifications X1 and X2 may not allow the database to occupy too much memory capacity of the memory unit 104. It is particularly noted that the present invention only illustrates the spirit of the present invention with a limited number of first and second procedures, and is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. The first identifications W1 and W2 or the second identifications X1 and X2 in the database are only used for the corresponding first and second programs. In order to simplify the description of the present invention, in the following embodiments, since the first identification W1 in the database corresponds to the game program, the game program W1 will be hereinafter referred to as "game program W1"; since the first identification W2 in the database corresponds to the text editing program, the text editing program W2 will be hereinafter referred to as "text editing program; since the second identification X1 in the database corresponds to the recording process, the recording process X1 will be referred to as the following; since the second identification X2 in the database corresponds to the video communication program, the video communication program X2 will be hereinafter referred to as a video communication program, but the present invention is not limited thereto.
As mentioned above, the database also includes a plurality of modes of operation (e.g., game mode, office mode, chat mode) and window configuration table 120. As shown in FIG. 3, window configuration table 120 includes a plurality of window configurations (e.g., window configurations (a) - (k)). In the database, the processing unit 102 sets each of the first programs to correspond to a different operation mode, and sets each of the operation modes to correspond to a different window configuration, as shown in table 1:
TABLE 1
Wherein table 1 may represent a database stored in the storage unit 104.
In the database (table 1), the processing unit 102 sets the game program W1 to correspond to the game mode, and the processing unit 102 sets the game mode corresponding window configuration (g). In the database, the processing unit 102 sets the office mode corresponding to the text editing program W2, and the processing unit 102 sets the office mode corresponding window configuration (e). As mentioned above, in the database, the processing unit 102 sets each first program to correspond to at least one second program, so each window configuration (a) - (k) can correspond to a first program and at least one second program respectively.
As shown in table 1, the processing unit 102 sets the game program W1 to correspond to the video recording program X1 and the video communication program X2, so that the window configuration (g) corresponds to one first program (game program W1) and two second programs (video recording program X1 and video communication program X2). In the database, the processing unit 102 sets the text editing program W2 to correspond to the video communication program X2, so that the window configuration (e) corresponds to a first program (the text editing program W2) and a second program (the video communication program X2). It is particularly noted that the examples in table 1 are only for illustrating the present invention, not for explaining the scope of the present invention, and that table 1 does not enumerate all the examples to simplify the description.
With continued reference to Table 1, when the database (Table 1) is established, the database is stored in the storage unit 104. When one or more first programs (e.g., game program, text editing program) in table 1 are started, the processing unit 102 finds the main window (or foreground window (foreground window)) with the most foreground (forerunning) in the display area of the display device 108 as the main program. As shown in fig. 2, when the game program W1 and the text editing program W2 are simultaneously started, the window P1 of the game program W1 and the window P2 of the text editing program W2 are simultaneously displayed on the display area of the display device 108. At this time, the processing unit 102 finds the main window with the most foreground (forecourted) among the windows P1 and P2. As shown in fig. 2, when the processing unit 102 finds that the window P1 is the main window with the most foreground, the processing unit 102 takes the game program W1 as the main program.
In a general case, when a user is executing a program, its window is called the main window with the most foreground, and the color of the main window with the most foreground becomes the most visible, for example: the window darkens or lightens. Therefore, the processing unit 102 can determine the main window with the most foreground according to the color depth, the light color or the brightness of the window, but the invention is not limited thereto. That is, when the processing unit 102 can determine that the color of the window P1 is darkened, the processing unit 102 can determine that the window P1 is the main window with the most foreground, and set the game program W1 as the main program.
In other embodiments, when the processing unit 102 uses the game program W1 as a main program, the processing unit 102 also uses other first programs (such as the text editing program W2) to zoom out or close the window, but the invention is not limited thereto.
Next, according to the first plurality of identifications (W1 to W2) of the database (e.g., table 1), the processing unit 102 selects an operation mode corresponding to the main program from the plurality of operation modes stored in the storage unit 104 according to the main program as a main operation mode. As shown in fig. 2 and table 1, when the processing unit 102 recognizes that the game program W1 is the main program, the processing unit 102 finds the operation mode corresponding to the game program W1 as the game mode from the database (table 1), and selects the game mode as the main operation mode.
Next, in the database (Table 1), the processing unit 102 selects a window configuration corresponding to the primary mode of operation. As shown in table 1, when the processing unit 102 selects the game mode as the main operation mode, the processing unit 102 finds a window configuration (g) corresponding to the game mode from the database (table 1), and the processing unit 102 selects the window configuration (g) from the window configuration table 120 in preparation for dividing the display area of the display device 108. As will be explained further below, how the processing unit 102 partitions the display area of the display device 108.
FIG. 4A is a diagram illustrating a window configuration of a display device 108 according to one embodiment of the invention. FIG. 4B is a diagram illustrating the resolution of the display device 108 according to an embodiment of the invention. FIG. 4C is a diagram illustrating a window arrangement of a display device 108 according to another embodiment of the invention. Please refer to fig. 1, 3, 4A, 4B and 4C simultaneously to illustrate the following embodiments.
In some embodiments, the size of the display area of the display device 108 is generally the same as or close to the size of the display screen of the display device 108, and those of ordinary skill in the art generally refer to the window size as if the display area of the display device 108 were in full screen mode (full screen mode), but the invention is not limited thereto.
When the processing unit 102 selects the window configuration corresponding to the main operation mode, the processing unit 102 divides the display area of the display device 108 into at least a first region R1 and a second region R2 according to the selected window configuration. The area of the first region R1 is greater than or equal to one-fourth of the area of the display region. That is, when the processing unit 102 selects the window configuration (g) from the window configuration table 120, the processing unit 102 divides the display area of the display device 108 along a y-axis direction according to the window configuration (g), so that the display area is divided into a first area R1 and a second area R2, as shown in fig. 4A.
In some embodiments, the display area of the display device 108 has a selectable resolution (resolution), such as: the resolution of the computer screen is as follows: 800×600dpi, 1280×720dpi, 1600×900dpi, 1920×1080dpi, and the like. Taking resolution 800 x 600dpi as an example, the processing unit 102 may divide the length of the display area of the display device 108 in the x direction by 800 equal parts according to resolution 800 x 600dpi, and divide each equal part of the length in the x direction (hereinafter referred to as x-bit value) by bit values 0 to 799, respectively, as shown in fig. 4B. The processing unit 102 may divide the y-direction length of the display area of the display device 108 into equal parts 600 and divide each of the equal parts of the y-direction length (hereinafter referred to as "y-bit values") with bit values 0 to 599, respectively, as shown in fig. 4B.
As shown in fig. 4B, window configurations (a) - (k) may be set to cut along the y-direction of display device 108 from any x-bit value (and/or y-bit value) of the display area. Window configurations (a) - (k) may be set to cut along the x-direction of display device 108 from any x-bit value (and/or y-bit value) of the display area. For example, window configuration (g) defines that from x-bit value 399 and y-bit value 0, cuts are made along the y-direction of display device 108 to x-bit value 399 and y-bit value 599. Window configuration (g) defines the cutting from x-bit value 399 and y-bit value 299 along the x-direction of display device 108 to x-bit value 799 and y-bit value 299. In addition, in the window arrangements (a) to (k), it is also possible to set that the cutting in the x direction is performed first, or that the cutting in the y direction is performed first. For example, the window arrangement (g) is set to cut in the y-direction first and then in the x-direction.
As shown in fig. 4A and 4B, after the processing unit 102 selects the window configuration (g) from the window configuration table 120, the processing unit 102 cuts the display area from the x-bit value 399 and the y-bit value 0 along the y-direction of the display device 108 to the x-bit value 399 and the y-bit value 599. In this way, the display area of the display device 108 is first divided into a first region R1 and a second region R2, as shown in fig. 4A.
Next, as shown in fig. 4B, according to the selected window configuration (g), the processing unit 102 cuts the second region R2 from the x-bit value 399 to the y-bit value 299 along the x-direction of the display device 108 to the x-bit value 799 and the y-bit value 299. In this way, the second region R2 is cut into the sub-region S1 and the sub-region S2, as shown in fig. 4C. Finally, the processing unit 102 cuts the display area of the display device 108 as shown in fig. 4C, and is identical to the window configuration (g).
Then, the processing unit 102 adjusts and displays the main window with the most foreground in the first region R1 of the display area. Based on the selected window configuration, the processing unit 102 displays and adjusts the window of the at least one second program that has been started in the second region R2.
Thus, in FIG. 4C and Table 1, the processing unit 102 selects the window configuration (g) corresponding to the game mode to cut the display area of the display device 108. Accordingly, the window P1 of the game program W1 is adjusted and displayed in the first region R1 of the display area, and the window P3 of the video recording program X1 and the window P4 of the video communication program X2 corresponding to the game program W1 are respectively adjusted and displayed in the sub-region S1 and the sub-region S2 of the second region R2.
In some embodiments, after the most promising main window (e.g. window P1 of the game program W1) is displayed in the first region R1, the processing unit 102 automatically adjusts the size of the most promising main window to conform to the operation habit of the user. Please refer to fig. 4B and 4C. In FIG. 4C, the first region R1 has an x-direction length of 400dpi (x-bit range: 0 to 399), and the first region R1 has a y-direction length of 600dpi (y-bit range: 0 to 599). Thus, in some embodiments, the length of the main window displayed in the first region R1 in the x-direction is adjusted to 400dpi and the length of the main window in the y-direction is adjusted to 600dpi. That is, the main window displayed in the first region R1 has the same length in the x-direction and the y-direction as the first region R1, but the present invention is not limited thereto. After finishing adjusting the x-direction length and the y-direction length of the main window, the processing unit 102 moves the main window to the first region R1, and fills the main window in the first region R1.
For example, referring to FIGS. 2 and 4C, when the window P1 of the game program W1 is used as the main window, the processing unit 102 moves the window P1 to the first region R1, and the processing unit 102 further adjusts the x-direction length of the window P1 to be identical to the x-direction length of the first region R1 (e.g., 800 dpi), and the processing unit 102 further adjusts the y-direction length of the window P1 to be identical to the y-direction length of the first region R1 (e.g., 600 dpi). Then, the processing unit 102 also adjusts the window P1 to just fill the first region R1.
Similarly, the processing unit 102 adjusts the size and position of the window of the second program (e.g. the window P3 of the video recording program X1 and the window P4 of the video communication program X2) in the same way as the main window, so as to be displayed in the sub-area S1 and the sub-area S2 respectively. Therefore, the method for adjusting the window of the second procedure is not described in detail. For example: the processing unit 102 adjusts the window P3 of the video program X1 to just fill the sub-area S1, and the processing unit 102 adjusts the window P4 of the video communication program X2 to just fill the sub-area S2.
In some embodiments, the window configurations (a) - (e) and window configurations (g) - (j) in the window configuration table 120 each set the area of the first region to be greater than or equal to half the area of the display device 108. The area of the first area of the window arrangement (a) is equal to the area of the display device 108, and the second area is not provided in the window arrangement (a). In addition, the window configuration (f) is to divide the display area of the display device 108 into a first area, a second area and a third area, wherein the area of the first area is about one third of the area of the display device 108. The window arrangement (k) is to divide the display area of the display device 108 into a first area, a second area, a third area and a fourth area, wherein the area of the first area is equal to about one fourth of the area of the display device 108.
FIG. 5 is a flow chart of a display method 500 according to an embodiment of the invention. Please refer to fig. 1 to 5 simultaneously, in order to explain the following embodiments. The display method 500 is operated mainly by the processing unit 102 and starts to operate by step 501.
In step 501, the storage unit 104 stores a database (as shown in table 1), where the database includes: a plurality of first identifications corresponding to the plurality of first programs, a plurality of second identifications corresponding to the plurality of second programs, respectively, a plurality of operating modes, and a window configuration table 120 having a plurality of window configurations (a) - (k). Each of the plurality of operation modes corresponds to each of the plurality of window configurations (a) - (k), respectively, and each of the plurality of operation modes corresponds to each of the plurality of first programs, respectively, and each of the plurality of first programs has at least one second program corresponding thereto, respectively, and each of the plurality of window configurations (a) - (k) corresponds to the first program and the at least one second program corresponding thereto, respectively. The correspondence is shown in table 1, but the present invention is not limited thereto.
In some embodiments, the storage unit 104 may execute a storage library under the control of the processing unit 102. Those skilled in the art can program the processing unit 102 to complete the database creation and transfer to the storage unit 104.
In step 503, the processing unit 102 finds the main window with the most foreground in the display area of the display device 108 from the one or more first programs (e.g. the game program W1 and the text editing program W2) that have been started as the main program. For example: in FIG. 2, when both the game program W1 and the text editing program W2 are started, the window P1 of the game program W1 and the window P2 of the text editing program W2 are displayed in the display area of the display device 108. Wherein the processing unit 102 finds that the window P1 of the game program W1 is the main window with the most foreground, and takes the game program W1 as the main program. How the processing unit 102 determines the main window with the most foreground is described in detail above, and thus the description is omitted.
In step 505, the processing unit 102 selects an operation mode corresponding to the main program from the operation modes stored in the storage unit 104 as a main operation mode according to the first identifications of the first programs. As shown in table 1, when the game program W1 is the main program, the processing unit 102 selects the operation mode of the corresponding game program W1 as the game mode, and takes the game mode as the main operation mode.
In step 507, a window configuration corresponding to the primary mode of operation is selected. Referring to table 1, when the processing unit 102 takes the game mode as the main operation mode, the processing unit 102 selects a window configuration (g) corresponding to the game mode from table 1.
In step 509, the processing unit 102 divides the display area into at least a first region R1 and a second region R2 according to the selected window configuration. Wherein the area of the first region R1 is greater than or equal to one quarter of the area of the display region. That is, when the window configuration (g) is selected by the processing unit 102, the processing unit 102 divides the display area into a first region R1 and a second region R2 according to the window configuration (g), as shown in fig. 4A. In fig. 4A, the area of the first region R1 is equal to about half of the area of the display region.
In step 511, the processing unit 102 adjusts and displays the main window with the most foreground in the first region R1 of the display area. That is, if the processing unit 102 determines that the window P1 of the game program W1 is the main window with the most foreground in step 503, the processing unit 102 adjusts and displays the window P1 of the game program W1 in the first region R1 in step 511. The method of how to adjust and display the main window with the most foreground is described in detail before, so that the description is omitted.
In step 513, the processing unit 102 then determines whether a second program corresponding to the first program is started. For example, in fig. 2 and table 1, the second programs corresponding to the game program W1 are a video recording program X1 and a video communication program X2. If the processing unit 102 determines that the recording program X1 and/or the video communication program X2 is not activated, the processing unit 102 proceeds to step 515 and directly selects the window configuration (a) of the window configuration table 120. According to window configuration (a), the processing unit 102 adjusts the area of the first region R1 to be the same as the area of the display region, and the processing unit 102 directly sets the area of the second region R2 to zero. Accordingly, the display area of the display device 108 displays only the main window (window P1 of the game program W1) having the most foreground.
In other embodiments, if the processing unit 102 determines that the video recording program X1 and/or the video communication program X2 is not activated, the processing unit 102 proceeds to step 515, directly cancels the window configuration table 120, and directly performs the full screen mode on the display area of the display device 108. At this time, all the started programs may be selectively displayed in the display area of the display device 108.
In step 513, if the processing unit 102 determines that the video recording program X1 and the video communication program X2 are started, the processing unit 102 continues to maintain the selected window configuration (g), and proceeds to step 517.
In step 517, the processing unit 102 displays and adjusts the window of the initiated at least one second program in the second region R2 according to the selected window configuration. In step 517, the processing unit 102 continues to divide the second region R2 into the sub-region S1 and the sub-region S2 according to the window configuration (g), as shown in fig. 4C. Next, the processing unit 102 sets the window P3 of the video program X1 and the window P4 of the video communication program X2 to the sub-area S1 and the sub-area S2, respectively, and adjusts the size of the window P3 of the video program X1 to be the same as the sub-area S1 and the size of the window P4 of the video communication program X2 to be the same as the sub-area S2. In some embodiments, the windows of each of the at least one second program that is launched have the same size. That is, the size of the video recording program X1 is the same as the video communication program X2.
The method for adjusting the window of the second program is substantially the same as the method for adjusting the main window, and is described in detail above, so that the detailed description thereof will not be repeated.
In some embodiments, the display method 500 of the present invention may be packaged in a tool program, and a user may install the tool program on any computer device (e.g., a personal computer, a notebook computer, etc.), and the computer device having the tool program may directly execute the display method 500 of the present invention.
