Various embodiments of the present application are proposed based on the above-mentioned mobile terminal hardware structure and/or communication network system.

First embodiment

In a first embodiment of the application display method, a terminal is taken as an execution subject, and a mobile terminal may take a smart phone as an example, please refer to fig. 3, where fig. 3 is a flowchart illustrating the first embodiment of the application display method, and in the first embodiment of the application display method, the application display method includes:

s11: determining a target application according to a preset operation;

in this embodiment, the terminal may determine the target application according to a preset operation. Optionally, the preset operation refers to some type of preset user operation, for example, double-click on a fingerprint, side stroke, or three-finger stroke. Optionally, when the terminal detects a preset operation triggered by a user, the application needing to be displayed through the small window is determined according to the preset operation, and optionally, the target application is determined. Optionally, different types of preset operations may be preset to correspond to different applications, and when the preset operation is detected, the preset corresponding relationship is searched according to the type of the preset operation, so that which application is used as the target application can be determined. For example, the operation of double-clicking the fingerprint corresponds to application a, and the operation of side-swiping corresponds to application B, so that when the terminal detects the operation of double-clicking the fingerprint, application a is determined as the target application, and when the terminal detects the operation of side-swiping, application B is determined as the target application.

In one embodiment, the number of target applications may be multiple.

after determining the target application, the terminal creates a virtual screen and a target window on the main screen according to the target application. Alternatively, the main screen and the virtual screen are relative, the main screen is a screen displayed on a physical screen of the terminal, the user can view the picture content through the physical screen, and the virtual screen is a screen virtualized in the background, and the user cannot view the picture content when the virtual screen is not displayed on the physical screen. The window on the main screen refers to a window in the screen contents on the main screen, which can be viewed by the user when the screen contents of the main screen are displayed on the physical screen.

The terminal creating the virtual screen according to the target application may specifically be creating the virtual screen according to the number of the target applications and/or the size of the application screen of the target application. Creating virtual screens according to the number of target applications may specifically be that the number of created virtual screens is equal to the number of target applications, and optionally, one virtual screen is created by one target application, and two virtual screens are created by two target applications. Creating the virtual screen according to the size of the application screen of the target application may specifically be that the size of the created virtual screen is equal to the size of the application screen of the target application. Alternatively, when virtual screens are created separately for a plurality of target applications, the size of each virtual screen is the same as the application screen of its corresponding target application. Alternatively, the dimensions may particularly refer to width and height. The virtual screen creation method may refer to an existing virtual screen creation method, and details are not described in detail in this embodiment.

The terminal may specifically create the target window according to the number of the target applications and/or the size of the application screen of the target application. Creating the target windows according to the number of the target applications may specifically be that the number of created target windows is equal to the number of target applications. Optionally, when there are multiple target applications, the terminal creates a virtual screen and a target window corresponding to each target application for each target application, and the target applications, the virtual screen and the target windows are in one-to-one correspondence; however, in some embodiments, at least one virtual screen and/or at least one target window may also be created for one target application. Specifically, the target window is created according to the application screen size of the target application, where the size of the created target window is a size obtained by reducing the application screen size of the target application in a certain ratio. Alternatively, when an application screen of one application is displayed in the main screen, if the application screen of another application is to be displayed for the user at the same time, the size of the target window is generally smaller than that of the main screen, so as to prevent the target window from blocking the application screen in the main screen. Alternatively, the reduction ratio of the application screen size may be set in advance as needed, and is not limited herein. The method for creating the target window may refer to an existing method for creating the screen window, and details are not described in detail in this embodiment.

Alternatively, the position of the target window in the home screen may be at a default position set in advance, for example, a position where the upper left vertex of the target window coincides with the upper left vertex of the home screen by default. Alternatively, in another embodiment, the terminal may capture a screen content of the main screen to obtain a picture, analyze a pixel value of the picture to obtain an area with fewer content elements in the picture, and determine the position of the target window according to the position of the area in the main screen. Optionally, there are many methods for analyzing the pixel values to obtain the region with fewer content elements, which is not limited in this embodiment; for example, a picture is converted into a grayscale picture, the area of a region connected by pixels with the same grayscale value is calculated, and the region with the largest area is used as a region with fewer content elements.

Optionally, in an embodiment, the step of S12 includes one or more of the following:

s121: creating a virtual screen and setting the size of the virtual screen according to the width and height of the target application;

after determining the target application, the terminal creates a virtual screen, and can set the size of the virtual screen according to the width and height of the application picture of the target application. Alternatively, the size of the virtual screen may be set to the size of the application screen of the target application. For example, the width and height of the application screen of the target application are 1440 × 900, and the size of the virtual screen is also set to 1440 × 900.

S122: and creating a target window and scaling and setting the size of the target window according to the aspect size of the target application.

After determining the target application, the terminal creates a target window, and can set the size of the target window according to the aspect ratio of the application picture of the target application. Alternatively, the application screen of the target application may be scaled proportionally, and the scaled size may be set as the size of the target window. Alternatively, the scaling of the scaling may be set in advance according to the requirement, for example, the scaling is set to be reduced by 10 times, and then when the width and the height of the application screen of the target application are 1440 × 900, the size of the target window is set to 144 × 90.

S13: migrating or starting the target application in the virtual screen;

after the virtual screen is created, the terminal migrates or starts the target application in the virtual screen. Alternatively, when the application screen of the target application has been displayed through the main screen, the application screen displayed on the main screen may be migrated into the virtual screen; when the target application is not started, the target application can be started, and the application of the started target application is displayed on the virtual screen. Optionally, when a plurality of target applications are provided and a virtual screen is created for each target application, migrating or starting the target application to the virtual screen corresponding to the target application; when a plurality of virtual screens corresponding to the target application exist, the images of different pages of the target application can be migrated or started in the corresponding different virtual screens, and the images are displayed through different target windows, so that a user can watch different pages of one application at the same time.

After the terminal migrates or starts the target application in the virtual screen and creates the target window in the main screen, the terminal displays the application picture in the virtual screen through the target window, or projects the application picture displayed in the virtual screen into the target window. Optionally, the application screen of the target application is still displayed in the virtual screen, and optionally, the target application is not associated with the main screen, and only the application screen in the virtual screen is displayed through the target window. Optionally, the terminal may bind a virtual screen created according to a target application and a target window, so that an application picture in the virtual screen can be displayed in the target window.

In the embodiment, the target application is determined according to the preset operation, the target window in the virtual screen and the main screen is created according to the target application, the target application is migrated or started on the virtual screen, and the application picture in the virtual screen is displayed through the target window, so that a user can view the application in the main screen and view the application picture of another application through the window on the main screen at the same time, a complex switching operation of exiting the application in the main screen and then starting another application is not needed, and the operation experience of the user is improved.

Second embodiment, on the basis of the first embodiment of the present application, a second embodiment of the application display method of the present application is proposed, and the second embodiment of the application display method of the present application is mainly different from the first embodiment in that, in the second embodiment, the step of S11 includes:

s111: the preset operation is a specific gesture operation on the main screen, and the application on the main screen is determined as a target application according to the preset operation;

when the preset operation is a specific gesture operation on the home screen, the terminal may determine an application on the home screen as a target application according to the preset operation. Alternatively, when the terminal detects the specific gesture operation, the application displayed on the home screen may be the target application. Optionally, the specific gesture operation may be set in advance according to needs, for example, it may be set as double-click fingerprint, side-stroke or three-finger up-stroke, etc. Optionally, in an embodiment, a configuration interface for a specific gesture operation may be set in the terminal, and the user sets the specific gesture operation in the interface. For example, if the user sets the operation of double-clicking the fingerprint to a specific gesture operation, when the terminal detects the operation of double-clicking the fingerprint, the application currently displayed in the main screen is taken as the target application.

Optionally, after the terminal uses the application on the main screen as a target application, creating a virtual screen and a target window, migrating the target application from the main screen to the virtual screen, and displaying an application picture of the target application in the virtual screen through the target window; at this time, the terminal may display the main interface of the operating system in the main screen, or select one application from applications running in the background to display in the main screen, or alternatively, select an application at the top in the background to display in the main screen. For example, as shown in fig. 4, the left side of the figure shows an application displayed in a main screen of the terminal, and after receiving a specific gesture operation, the application is displayed in a window by creating a virtual screen and a target window, as shown in the right side of the figure, and a main interface of an operating system is displayed in the main screen, and a user can operate in the main interface while viewing the application in the window.

S112: the preset operation is a click operation on the application notification, and the application corresponding to the application notification is used as a target application according to the preset operation.

When the preset operation is a click operation on the application notification, the terminal may take the application corresponding to the application notification as a target application according to the preset operation. Alternatively, when the terminal detects a click operation on the application notification, the application corresponding to the application notification may be taken as the target application. Alternatively, when the terminal receives an application notification, the application notification is displayed in the home screen in the form of a prompt message, and the user can view a message in the application by clicking on the application notification. The application corresponding to the application notification specifically refers to an application that receives the message and notifies the user.

When the terminal takes the application corresponding to the application notification as a target application, a virtual screen and a target window are created, the target application enlightens in the virtual screen, and an application picture of the target application in the virtual screen is displayed through the target window, so that when a user clicks the application notification in a main screen, messages in the application can be viewed through the window in the main screen, and meanwhile, normal operation can be performed on the main screen. For example, as shown in fig. 5, the left side of the figure shows the application displayed in the terminal main screen, and after receiving the click operation on the application notification, by creating the virtual screen and the target window, as shown in the right side of the figure, the application corresponding to the application notification is displayed in the window, and the previous application is still displayed in the main screen, so that the user can simultaneously view the application screens of the two applications.

Optionally, in an embodiment, when the terminal has displayed an application screen in one virtual screen through one window in the main screen, if an application notification of another application is received and a click operation of the application notification by the user is received, the terminal may further create one virtual screen and a target window for the application to display the application through the other window in the main screen, optionally, two windows exist in the main screen at the same time. For example, an application a is displayed in a main screen, after an application notification of an application B is received, a virtual screen 1 and a target window 1 are created for the application B, the application B is started in the virtual screen 1, and an application picture of the application B in the virtual screen 1 is displayed through the target window 1; on the basis, after receiving an application notification of the application C, creating a virtual screen 2 and a target window 2 for the application C, starting the application C in the virtual screen 2, and displaying an application picture of the application C in the virtual screen 2 through the target window 2; at this time, application a is displayed in the main screen, application B is displayed in the target window 1 in the main screen, and application C is displayed in the target window 2, and the user can view the contents of application a, application B, and application C at the same time without viewing the contents of the three applications by the cumbersome operation of exiting and launching the application A, B, C.

Alternatively, in an embodiment, the preset operation may be a selection operation of an application, and the application selected by the selection operation may be plural, in which case the terminal takes plural applications as target applications according to the selection operation, and generates a virtual screen and a target window for each application to display the respective applications through the plural windows in the main screen, so that the user can view the plural applications in the main screen at the same time.

The third embodiment, optionally, on the basis of the first embodiment and/or the second embodiment of the application display method of the present application, proposes a third embodiment of the application display method of the present application, and the third embodiment of the application display method of the present application is mainly different from the first embodiment described above in that, in the third embodiment, after the step S14, the method further includes:

s15: receiving click operation on the target window;

The terminal can receive click operation on the target window, and after the click operation is received, the target application is moved to a main screen, the target application is moved to a background or the target application is closed according to the click operation. Optionally, migrating the target application to the home screen means that the target application is originally displayed in the virtual screen, and now migrating the target application from the virtual screen to the top of the home screen so that the target application is directly displayed in the home screen. The target application is migrated to the background, namely the target application is displayed in the virtual screen, and the target application is migrated to the bottom of the main screen from the virtual screen, so that the target application runs in the background. Closing the target application may be an application process that ends the target application.

Optionally, in an embodiment, the target window may be operated by different types of clicks, and the terminal may select to migrate the target application to the home screen, migrate the target application to the background, or close the target application according to the type of the clicks. Alternatively, the types of click operations corresponding to the three processing modes may be specified in advance. For example, in addition to displaying an application screen of a target application, a control bar may be set in the target window, where the control bar includes at least one control for triggering different types of click operations; if the control is set to be closed, the control is migrated to the main screen control and the control is migrated to the background control, the target application is closed when the terminal detects the click operation on the closing control, the target application is migrated to the main screen when the terminal detects the click operation on the control migrated to the main screen, and the target application is migrated to the background when the terminal detects the click operation on the control migrated to the background.

Optionally, in an embodiment, after the step of S16, the method further includes:

step A, destroying or hiding the virtual screen and/or the target window.

The terminal can destroy or hide the virtual screen and/or the target window after the target application is migrated to the main screen, the background or closed. Optionally, when the target application is migrated to the main screen or the background, or is closed, the virtual screen is in an idle state, and at this time, the terminal destroys or hides the virtual screen, so that occupation of the virtual screen on the memory space can be avoided. When the target application is migrated to the main screen or the background or is closed, the application is not displayed in the virtual screen, the target window is also in an idle state, and at the moment, the target window is destroyed or hidden, so that the effect of the target window on viewing the application in the main screen by a user can be avoided, and the target window can be prevented from occupying the memory space.

In an embodiment, the terminal may detect whether the target application is determined again according to a preset operation within a period of time after the target application is migrated to a main screen, the target application is migrated to a background, or the target application is closed; if yes, the terminal can directly migrate or start the target application on the undisrupted or undiscovered virtual screen, and then display the application picture in the virtual screen through the undisrupted or undiscovered target window without creating the virtual screen and the target window, so that the response time of the terminal to the preset operation is shortened; if the target application is not determined according to the preset operation within a period of time, the terminal can destroy or hide the virtual screen and the target window so as to avoid occupying the memory space.

Optionally, in an embodiment, after the step of S14, the method further includes:

step B, receiving the zooming operation of the target window;

and C, zooming the size of the target window according to the zooming operation.

The terminal can receive the zooming operation of the user on the target window, and when the zooming operation is received, the terminal zooms the size of the target window according to the zooming operation. Optionally, the zooming operation may specifically include a zooming-out operation and a zooming-in operation, where the terminal zooms out the target window when receiving the zooming-out operation, and zooms in the target window when receiving the zooming-in operation. Optionally, there are many ways to determine the zoom level, and this embodiment is not limited thereto. For example, a user may trigger a zoom operation by dragging a corner of the target window, trigger a zoom-out operation when dragging a corner to move in a diagonal direction close to the corner, and trigger a zoom-in operation when dragging a corner to move in a diagonal direction far from the corner, where the degree of zoom-in and zoom-out may be determined according to how close the distance of dragging is, and the longer the distance of dragging is, the greater the zoom degree is, the shorter the distance of dragging is, and the smaller the zoom degree is.

In the embodiment, by receiving the zoom operation on the target window and zooming the size of the target window according to the zoom operation, the user can flexibly adjust the size of the window when viewing two application screens through the main screen and the window on the main screen.

Optionally, in an embodiment, the terminal may receive a drag operation on the target window, and move the position of the target window according to the drag operation. Optionally, the user may click a certain position in the target window without dragging loosely, and the terminal moves the position of the target window according to the distance and direction dragged by the user until the user releases the target window and does not drag any more.

step E, receiving application switching operation of the target window;

and D, migrating the application in the main screen to the virtual screen according to the application switching operation, and/or migrating the target application in the virtual screen to the main screen.

The terminal can receive application switching operation on the target window, and after the application switching operation is received, the application in the main screen is migrated to the virtual screen according to the application switching operation, and the target application in the virtual screen is migrated to the main screen. Optionally, the application originally displayed in the main screen is migrated to the virtual screen for display, the application originally displayed in the virtual screen is migrated to the main screen for display, and the applications displayed in the two screens are exchanged. For example, an application a is displayed in the original main screen, an application B is displayed in the virtual screen, an application picture of the application B in the virtual screen is displayed through the target window in the main screen, and a user can view the application picture of the application a in the main screen and view the application picture of the application B in the target window in the main screen; after the switching, the application B is displayed in the main screen, the application A is displayed in the virtual screen, the application picture of the application A in the virtual screen is displayed through the target window in the main screen, and the user can view the application picture of the application B in the main screen and can view the application picture of the application A in the target window in the main screen. Optionally, besides displaying an application screen of the target application, an application switching control may be set in the target window for triggering application switching operation; when the terminal detects the clicking operation on the application switching control, the application switching operation is determined to be received, at the moment, the application in the main screen is migrated to the virtual screen, and the target application in the virtual screen is migrated to the main screen.

In the embodiment, the terminal receives application switching operation on the target window, the application in the main screen is migrated to the virtual screen according to the application switching operation, and the target application in the virtual screen is migrated to the main screen, so that a user can flexibly switch the application displayed in the main screen and the application displayed in the target window of the main screen without switching the two applications through complicated operations of exiting the applications and opening the applications.
