The view system can draw the window according to the adjusted window parameter and the newly added display content, and call the display drive through the kernel layer to display the drawn window on the display interface.
Hereinafter, a window display method provided by an embodiment of the present application will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
The window display method provided by the embodiment of the application is applied to a scene in which content is displayed through a small window, namely, the window display method is applied to a scene in which the height of the window is smaller than the height of a screen and/or the width of the window is smaller than the width of the screen. The window may be a window corresponding to the terminal device itself, or may also be a window for other devices to screen in the terminal device, for example, a window for other devices to screen in the terminal device in a multi-screen cooperation. Two modes of the window applying the corresponding window for the terminal device and the window projected by the other device on the terminal device are explained in detail below.
1. The window is a window corresponding to the self application of the terminal equipment
After a user clicks or touches a certain application (e.g., an e-book application) in the terminal device, the terminal device may display the content of the e-book application through a window (hereinafter, referred to as a first window) of a default size in response to a click or touch operation by the user, for the user to browse. When the user browses the content currently displayed in the first window, if the user wants to continue browsing new content or wants to return to view browsed content, the user may perform a sliding operation in the first window. After the terminal device detects the sliding operation, the window can be automatically expanded, so that new content or browsed content can be directly additionally displayed through the expanded window, a user can browse conveniently, and user experience is improved. The basic principle of displaying browsed content in the extended window is the same as that of displaying new content in the extended window, and the following description will take the example of displaying new content in the extended window as an example.
It will be appreciated that the terminal device may determine whether new content is present in the application that is not displayed in the window prior to automatically expanding the window. When new content that is not displayed in the window exists in the application, the terminal device may automatically expand the window based on a sliding operation to perform an additional display of the new content. When there is no new content that is not displayed in the window, the terminal device will not perform window expansion.
When the window is expanded, the terminal device can expand the window through window extension and/or newly adding the window so as to display more contents for a user to browse. The following are described separately: (one) window extension; and (II) adding a new window.
(one) Window extension
Before the window extension, the terminal device needs to determine an extension direction and an extension distance of the window extension, so that the terminal device can perform the window extension according to the extension direction and the extension distance. The determination of the extension direction and the extension distance is described below, respectively.
(1) Determination of the direction of extension
The extending direction may be at least one of upward, downward, leftward and rightward. When the extending direction is upward, the terminal device may extend the upper edge of the window upward. When the extending direction is downward, the terminal device may extend the lower edge of the window downward. When the extending direction is leftward, the terminal device may extend the left edge of the window leftward. When the extending direction is rightward, the terminal device may extend rightward, i.e., the right edge of the window. It can be understood that, when the terminal device extends the upper edge of the window upward, the left edge and the right edge of the window connected to the upper edge of the window are also extended upward, so that the extended upper edge of the window can still be connected to the left edge and the right edge of the window, thereby ensuring the integrity of the window. Similarly, when the terminal device extends the lower edge of the window downwards, the left edge of the window extends leftwards, and the right edge of the window extends rightwards, the edges of other windows connected with the terminal device also extend towards the corresponding extending direction.
In the embodiment of the application, the extending direction can be set by a user in a customized manner or can be set by default by the terminal equipment. For example, the user may set the extending direction to be customized to be upward, that is, after the terminal device detects a sliding operation performed by the user in the first window (hereinafter, the sliding operation that triggers the terminal device to perform window extension is referred to as a first sliding operation), the terminal device may directly extend the upper edge of the window upward. For example, the terminal device may set the extending direction to be downward by default, that is, after the terminal device detects the first sliding operation performed by the user in the first window, the terminal device may directly extend the lower edge of the window downward.
In the embodiment of the present application, in order to ensure that the extended window still displays the content in the original layout of the content, so as to avoid the re-layout of the content caused by the window extension, the terminal device may determine the extension direction according to the display mode of the content in the first window. The content may be displayed in a horizontal manner or in a vertical manner. Optionally, when the content is displayed in a horizontal manner, the terminal device may determine the extending direction as upward and/or downward, so as to increase the window height by extending the first window upward and/or downward, so that the extended window may display more content without affecting the original layout of the content. Optionally, when the content is displayed in the vertical display mode, the terminal device may determine the extending direction as left and/or right, so as to increase the window width by extending the first window left and/or right, so that the extended window may display more content without affecting the original layout of the content.
The extending direction is upward and downward, which means that the upward extension of the upper edge of the window and the downward extension of the lower edge of the window are simultaneously performed in each window extension. The extending directions are leftward and rightward, which means that leftward extension of the left edge of the window and rightward extension of the right edge of the window are performed simultaneously in each window extending.
It should be noted that, when the upward extension of the upper edge of the window and the downward extension of the lower edge of the window are performed simultaneously, or the leftward extension of the left edge of the window and the rightward extension of the right edge of the window are performed simultaneously, after the terminal device extends one of the window edges to the preset position corresponding to the window edge, and then when the user continues to perform the first sliding operation in the first window, the terminal device may only perform window extension in a single direction, that is, only extend the other window edge, until the other window edge also extends to the preset position corresponding to the other window edge. For example, when the left edge of the window is extended leftwards and the right edge of the window is extended rightwards at the same time, after the left edge of the window is extended leftwards to the preset position corresponding to the left edge of the window by the terminal device, and then when the user continues to perform the first sliding operation in the first window, the terminal device may only extend rightwards to the right edge of the window until the right edge of the window is extended to the preset position corresponding to the right edge of the window.
The preset position corresponding to the window edge refers to the maximum position that the window edge can reach in the display interface. Optionally, the terminal device may determine the preset position corresponding to the window edge according to the edge of the display interface. For example, in a single-window scene shown in (a) of fig. 3, or in a multi-window scene shown in (b) of fig. 3 (when a window may cover other windows), taking the window 301 corresponding to the e-book application as an example, the preset position corresponding to the window upper edge 3011 of the window 301 may be a position away from the upper edge 30 of the display interface by a preset distance, the preset position corresponding to the window lower edge 3012 of the window 301 may be a position away from the lower edge 31 of the display interface by a preset distance, the preset position corresponding to the window left edge 3013 of the window 301 may be a position away from the left edge 32 of the display interface by a preset distance, and the preset position corresponding to the window right edge 3014 of the window 301 may be a position away from the right edge 33 of the display interface by a preset distance. The preset distance may be determined according to specific situations, and may be any value smaller than a height corresponding to one row of content (or smaller than a width corresponding to one column of content), for example. For example, the preset distance may be 0.
Optionally, in a multi-window scene, in order to avoid that the window extension affects the content display of other windows, the terminal device may also determine, according to the positions of the window edges of other windows in the display interface, the preset position corresponding to the window edge of the window to be extended. For example, in the multi-window scenario shown in (b) of fig. 3, taking the window 301 corresponding to the e-book application as the window to be extended, the preset position corresponding to the window upper edge 3011 of the window 301 may be the window lower edge 3021 of the window 302 corresponding to the bank application (that is, when the login interface is displayed), the preset position corresponding to the window lower edge 3012 of the window 301 may be the lower edge 31 of the display interface, the preset position corresponding to the window left edge 3013 of the window 301 may be the left edge 32 of the display interface, and the preset position corresponding to the window right edge 3014 of the window 301 may be the window left edge 3031 of the window 303 corresponding to the short message application.
In the embodiment of the application, in order to improve the window extension efficiency and improve the user experience, the terminal device may determine the extending direction of the window extension according to the display mode of the content in the first window and the distance between the position of the window edge in the display interface and the preset position corresponding to the window edge.
For example, when the display mode of the content is a landscape display, as shown in (a) of fig. 4, when a distance (hereinafter, referred to as a first distance) R1 between a position of the window upper edge in the display interface and a preset position corresponding to the window upper edge is greater than or equal to a first distance threshold, the terminal device may determine the extending direction to be upward to increase the window height by extending the window upper edge upward to expand the window. For example, when the display mode of the content is a landscape display, as shown in (b) of fig. 4, when a distance (hereinafter, referred to as a second distance) R2 between a position of the window lower edge in the display interface and a preset position corresponding to the window lower edge is greater than or equal to a first distance threshold, the terminal device may determine the extending direction to be downward to increase the window height by extending the window lower edge downward to expand the window. For example, when the display mode of the content is a landscape display, when the first distance R1 is greater than or equal to the first distance threshold and the second distance R2 is greater than or equal to the first distance threshold, the terminal device may determine the extending direction to be upward and/or downward. The first distance threshold may be set according to specific situations, for example, the first distance threshold may be set to a height corresponding to a row of contents, or the first distance threshold may be set to any value greater than 0, and so on.
Further, in a scenario where the first distance R1 is greater than or equal to the first distance threshold and the second distance R2 is greater than or equal to the first distance threshold, when the extending direction is a single direction, in order to ensure that the window extends so that the window can display more content, the terminal device may determine the extending direction according to a size relationship between the first distance R1 and the second distance R2. For example, as shown in (c) of fig. 4, when the first distance R1 is greater than the second distance R2, the terminal device may determine the extending direction as upward. As shown in (d) of fig. 4, when the first distance R1 is smaller than the second distance R2, the terminal device may determine the extending direction as downward.
Alternatively, when the first distance R1 is equal to the second distance R2, the terminal device may also determine the extending direction in which the window extends according to the sliding direction of the first sliding operation. For example, when the sliding direction of the first sliding operation is upward, the terminal device may determine the extending direction as downward; when the sliding direction of the first sliding operation is downward, the terminal device may determine the extending direction as upward, and so on.
Illustratively, when the display manner of the content is the portrait display, as shown in (a) of fig. 5, when a distance R3 between a position of the window left edge in the display interface and a preset position corresponding to the window left edge (hereinafter, referred to as a third distance) is greater than or equal to a second distance threshold, the terminal device may determine the extending direction to the left so as to increase the window width by extending the window left edge to the left, so as to expand the window. For example, when the display mode of the content is a portrait display, as shown in (b) of fig. 5, when a distance (hereinafter, referred to as a fourth distance) R4 between a position of the window right edge in the display interface and a preset position corresponding to the window right edge is greater than or equal to a second distance threshold, the terminal device may determine the extending direction to the right to increase the window width by extending the window right edge to the right to expand the window. For example, when the display mode of the content is a portrait display, when the third distance R3 is greater than or equal to the second distance threshold and the fourth distance R4 is greater than or equal to the second distance threshold, the terminal device may determine the extending direction as left and/or right. The second distance threshold may be set according to specific situations, for example, the second distance threshold may be set to a width corresponding to a column of contents, or the second distance threshold may be set to any value greater than 0, and so on.
Further, in a scenario where the third distance R3 is greater than or equal to the second distance threshold and the fourth distance R4 is greater than or equal to the second distance threshold, when the extending direction is a single direction, in order to ensure that the window extends so that the window can display more content, the terminal device may determine the extending direction according to a size relationship between the third distance R3 and the fourth distance R4. For example, as shown in (c) of fig. 5, when the third distance R3 is greater than the fourth distance R4, the terminal device may determine the extending direction to the left. As shown in (d) in fig. 5, when the third distance R3 is smaller than the fourth distance R4, the terminal device may determine the extending direction to the right.
Alternatively, when the third distance R3 is equal to the fourth distance R4, the terminal device may also determine the extending direction in which the window extends according to the sliding direction of the first sliding operation. For example, when the sliding direction of the first sliding operation is leftward, the terminal device may determine the extending direction as rightward; when the sliding direction of the first sliding operation is rightward, the terminal device may determine the extending direction as leftward, and so on.
(2) Determination of the extension distance
The extension distance refers to the distance that the first window edge needs to move in each window extension. The first window edge refers to a window edge to be extended determined according to an extending direction. For example, when the extending direction is upward, the first window edge is the window upper edge, and the extending distance is the distance that the window upper edge needs to move upward; when the extending direction is towards left, the first window edge is the left edge of the window, and the extending distance is the distance that the left edge of the window needs to move towards left. For example, when the extending direction is multi-directional, the first window edge is an upper window edge and a lower window edge, and the extending distance may include a first extending distance and a second extending distance, where the first extending distance is a distance that the upper window edge needs to move upward, and the second extending distance is a distance that the lower window edge needs to move downward.
In the embodiment of the application, the extension distance can be set by a user in a customized manner or can be set by default by the terminal equipment. For example, when the content is displayed in a horizontal manner and the extending direction is a single direction, the user may set the extending distance to a height corresponding to one (or two) line of content by user-defined setting. For example, when the content is displayed in a vertical manner and the extending direction is multiple directions, i.e., left and right, the terminal device may default the first extending distance corresponding to the left edge of the window and the second extending distance corresponding to the right edge of the window to the width corresponding to one column (or two columns, etc.) of content.
Or the extending distance may be determined by the terminal device according to the sliding distance corresponding to the first sliding operation, so that the window extension may be matched with the sliding operation performed by the user in the window, thereby improving the user experience. For example, when the extending direction is an upward single direction, the terminal device may determine a sliding distance corresponding to the first sliding operation as an extending distance corresponding to the upper edge of the window. For example, when the extending direction is multi-directional, i.e., upward and downward, the terminal device may determine the sliding distance corresponding to the first sliding operation as a first extending distance corresponding to the upper edge of the window and a second extending distance corresponding to the lower edge of the window, respectively, that is, the distance that the upper edge of the window moves upward and the distance that the lower edge of the window moves downward are both the sliding distances corresponding to the first sliding operation; or the terminal device may determine the first extending distance corresponding to the upper edge of the window and the second extending distance corresponding to the lower edge of the window respectively according to that the sum of the first extending distance corresponding to the upper edge of the window and the second extending distance corresponding to the lower edge of the window is the sliding distance corresponding to the first sliding operation, for example, may determine the first extending distance corresponding to the upper edge of the window and the second extending distance corresponding to the lower edge of the window as half of the sliding distance respectively, and so on.
Or the extending distance may be determined by the terminal device according to a distance between a position of the first window edge in the display interface and a preset position corresponding to the first window edge, so as to directly maximize the window through one-time extending, so that the extended window may display more content. For example, when the extending direction is an upward single direction, the terminal device may determine a distance between a position of the upper edge of the window in the display interface and a preset position corresponding to the upper edge of the window as an extending distance corresponding to the upper edge of the window. For example, when the extending direction is multi-directional, i.e., upward and downward, the terminal device may determine a distance between a position of the upper edge of the window in the display interface and a preset position corresponding to the upper edge of the window as a first extending distance corresponding to the upper edge of the window, and may determine a distance between a position of the lower edge of the window in the display interface and a preset position corresponding to the lower edge of the window as a second extending distance corresponding to the lower edge of the window.
It should be understood that, in a scenario where the sliding distance corresponding to the first sliding operation is determined as the extension distance, when the sliding distance is greater than a distance between a position of the first window edge in the display interface and a preset position corresponding to the first window edge, the terminal device may also determine a distance between the position of the first window edge in the display interface and the preset position corresponding to the first window edge as the extension distance corresponding to the first window edge, so as to ensure complete display of the window.
Optionally, when the extension distance is determined according to the sliding distance corresponding to the first sliding operation or the position of the first window edge in the display interface, the terminal device may determine the extension distance by combining the height corresponding to one row of content (or the width corresponding to one column of content), so as to ensure that the content in the window can be completely displayed after the window is extended, and improve user experience. Specifically, the terminal device may determine, as the extended distance, a content height or a content width that can be covered by the sliding distance corresponding to the first sliding operation, or may determine, as the extended distance, a content height or a content width at which the sliding distance corresponding to the first sliding operation is closest to the first sliding operation. For example, when the height corresponding to each row of content (or the width corresponding to each column of content) in the first window is 0.8 cm, when the terminal device detects that the sliding distance corresponding to the first sliding operation is 3 cm, the terminal device may determine, as the extension distance, the total height corresponding to three rows of content (or the total width corresponding to three columns of content) that can be completely covered by the sliding distance, that is, may determine the extension distance to be 2.4 cm; alternatively, the terminal device may determine the total height corresponding to four rows of content closest to the sliding distance (or the total width corresponding to four columns of content) as the extension distance, that is, may determine the extension distance as 3.2 centimeters.
Similarly, the terminal device may determine, as the extension distance, a content height or a content width that can be covered by a distance between a position of the first window edge in the display interface and a preset position corresponding to the first window edge. For example, when the height corresponding to each line of content in the first window (or the width corresponding to each column of content) is 0.8 cm, when the terminal device determines that the distance between the edge of the first window and the preset position corresponding to the edge of the first window is 5 cm, the terminal device may determine the total height corresponding to six lines of content (or the total width corresponding to six columns of content) that can be covered by 5 cm as the extension distance, that is, may determine the extension distance as 4.8 cm.
The following describes a first sliding operation for triggering the terminal device to perform window extension.
The first sliding operation for triggering the terminal device to perform window extension is not limited in the embodiment of the present application, and the first sliding operation may be an operation of sliding upward, an operation of sliding downward, an operation of sliding leftward, an operation of sliding rightward, and the like.
For example, the terminal device may be triggered to extend the lower edge of the window downward, or the terminal device may be triggered to extend the upper edge of the window upward, or the terminal device may be triggered to extend the left edge of the window leftward, or the terminal device may be triggered to extend the right edge of the window rightward by an operation of sliding upward. For example, the operation of sliding to the right may trigger the terminal device to extend the lower edge of the window downwards, or trigger the terminal device to extend the upper edge of the window upwards, or trigger the terminal device to extend the left edge of the window leftwards, or trigger the terminal device to extend the right edge of the window rightwards, and so on.
Optionally, in this embodiment of the present application, the terminal device may determine the content browsing operation of the user as a first sliding operation that triggers the terminal device to perform window extension, so as to perform window extension according to a habitual browsing operation of the user, so that displaying of new content through window extension may be matched with content browsing that is habitual to the user, and user experience is improved. For example, when the display mode of the content is horizontal display, the user is generally used to perform content browsing and refreshing through an operation of sliding up or sliding down, and at this time, the terminal device may determine the operation of sliding up or sliding down as a first sliding operation that triggers the terminal device to perform window extension. When the display mode of the content is the vertical display, the user is generally used to browse and refresh the content through a leftward sliding operation or a rightward sliding operation, and at this time, the terminal device may determine the leftward sliding operation or the rightward sliding operation as a first sliding operation that triggers the terminal device to perform window extension. The following description will exemplarily take the first sliding operation as the content browsing operation by the user as an example.
For example, when the content is displayed in a horizontal manner, if the user performs an upward refresh of the content (i.e., the new content slides out from below the display interface) through an upward sliding operation, the terminal device may determine the upward sliding operation as a first sliding operation that triggers the terminal device to perform window extension. That is, when the terminal device detects an operation of sliding up performed by the user in the first window, the terminal device may then perform upward extension and/or downward extension of the first window in response to the operation of sliding up.
For example, when the content is displayed in a horizontal manner and the window extends in an upward direction, as shown in (a) of fig. 6, after the terminal device detects that the user performs an operation of sliding upward in the first window, as shown in (b) of fig. 6, the terminal device may extend the upper edge 601 of the window upward to extend the upper edge 601 of the window to the position of 601', and may move the content displayed in the first window upward, so that the extension portion 62 formed at the lower side of the first window performs display of new content by extending the upper edge of the window and moving the content, thereby implementing an upward refresh function of the content, meeting the current operation habit of the user, and improving user experience. In a scenario where the display mode of the content is a landscape display and the extending direction of the window extends downward, as shown in (c) of fig. 6, when the terminal device detects an operation of sliding upward performed by the user in the first window, as shown in (d) of fig. 6, the terminal device may extend the window lower edge 602 downward to extend the window lower edge 602 to the position of 602', and display new content through the extending portion 62 formed on the lower side of the first window after the window lower edge extends. In a scenario where the display mode of the content is a landscape display and the extending direction of the window extension is upward and downward, as shown in (e) in fig. 6, when the terminal device detects an operation of upward sliding performed by the user in the first window, as shown in (f) in fig. 6, the terminal device may simultaneously extend the window upper edge 601 and the window lower edge 602 upward to extend the window upper edge 601 to the position of 601 'and extend the window lower edge 602 to the position of 602', and may simultaneously move the content in the first window upward to perform display of new content by performing the extending portion 62 formed on the lower side of the first window after the window upper edge and the window lower edge are extended and the content is moved.
For example, when the content is displayed in a horizontal manner, if the user performs a downward refresh of the content (i.e., the new content slides out from above the display interface) through a downward sliding operation, the terminal device may determine the downward sliding operation as a first sliding operation that triggers the terminal device to perform window extension. That is, when the terminal device detects a downward sliding operation performed by the user in the first window, the terminal device may perform upward extension and/or downward extension of the first window in response to the downward sliding operation.
Similarly, when the content is displayed in the portrait mode, if the user performs a rightward refresh of the content (i.e., the new content slides out from the left of the display interface) through a rightward sliding operation, the terminal device may determine the rightward sliding operation as a first sliding operation that triggers the terminal device to perform window extension. That is, when the terminal device detects a rightward sliding operation performed by the user in the first window, the terminal device may perform leftward extension of the left edge of the window and/or perform rightward extension of the right edge of the window in response to the rightward sliding operation. When the content is displayed in the portrait mode, if the user performs a leftward refresh of the content (i.e., the new content slides out from the right of the display interface) through a leftward sliding operation, the terminal device may determine the leftward sliding operation as a first sliding operation that triggers the terminal device to perform window extension. That is, when the terminal device detects a leftward sliding operation performed by the user in the first window, the terminal device may perform leftward extension of the left edge of the window and/or rightward extension of the right edge of the window in response to the leftward sliding operation.
The following takes the operation of sliding right as an example to trigger the terminal device to perform the first operation of extending the window.
For example, when the display mode of the content is a portrait display and the extending direction of the window extends is a scene to the left, as shown in (a) in fig. 7, after the terminal device detects that the user performs the operation of sliding to the right in the first window, as shown in (b) in fig. 7, the terminal device may extend the window left edge 703 to the left to extend the window left edge 703 to the position of 703', and display the new content by the extending portion 72 formed on the left side of the first window after the window left edge is extended. In a scenario where the content is displayed in a vertical manner and the extending direction of the window extends to the right, as shown in (c) of fig. 7, when the terminal device detects an operation of sliding to the right performed by the user in the first window, as shown in (d) of fig. 7, the terminal device may extend the right edge 704 of the window to the right to extend the right edge 704 to the position of 704', and may move the content displayed in the first window to the right, so that after the right edge of the window is extended and the content is moved, the extending portion 72 formed at the left side of the first window displays new content, thereby implementing a leftward refresh function of the content, meeting the current operation habit of the user, and improving the user experience. In a scenario where the display mode of the content is a portrait display and the extending direction of the window extension is left and right, as shown in (e) of fig. 7, when the terminal device detects an operation of sliding right performed by the user in the first window, as shown in (f) of fig. 7, the terminal device may simultaneously extend the window left edge 703 and the window right edge 704 left to extend the window left edge 703 to the position of 703 'and extend the window right edge 704 to the position of 704' and may simultaneously move the content in the first window right to display new content by the extending portion 72 formed on the left side of the first window after the window left edge and the window right edge are extended and the content is moved.
In a possible implementation manner, after the terminal device responds to a first sliding operation performed by a user in a first window and extends the first window edge to a preset position corresponding to the first window edge, if the user continues to perform the first sliding operation in the first window to perform content refreshing, the terminal device does not extend the first window edge any more, but may directly perform refreshing by sliding the content in the first window, or may add a new window in a display interface to continue content display through the newly added window with the first window to perform refreshing.
For example, in a scene in which the extending direction is a single direction (e.g., the extending direction is downward), after the terminal device responds to an upward sliding operation performed by a user in the first window and extends the lower edge of the window to a preset position (e.g., close to the lower edge of the display interface) corresponding to the lower edge of the window, if the user continues to perform the upward sliding operation in the first window, the terminal device will not extend the lower edge of the window downward any more, and can directly slide the entire content in the first window upward to refresh the content; or, the terminal device may also add a new window in the display interface, so as to display new content by continuing the first window through the newly added window, thereby refreshing the content.
For example, in a scene in which the extending direction is multi-directional (e.g., the extending direction is upward and downward), after the terminal device responds to the user performing an upward sliding operation in the first window, extending the upper edge of the window to a preset position corresponding to the upper edge of the window (e.g., close to the upper edge of the display interface), and extending the lower edge of the window to a preset position corresponding to the lower edge of the window (e.g., close to the lower edge of the display interface), if the user continues to perform the upward sliding operation in the first window to perform content refreshing, the terminal device will not extend the lower edge of the window downward and will not extend the upper edge of the window upward, but may directly slide the entire content in the first window upward to perform content refreshing; or, the terminal device may add a new window in the display interface to display new content by continuing the first window through the added window, so as to refresh the content.
The description about the new window will be described later, and will not be repeated herein.
In this embodiment of the application, in a scenario in which an extending direction (hereinafter referred to as a first extending direction) is a single direction, after the terminal device extends the first window edge to the preset position corresponding to the first window edge in response to a first sliding operation performed by a user in the first window, if the user continues to perform the first sliding operation in the first window to refresh the content, the terminal device may further obtain a position of a second window edge opposite to the first window edge in the display interface. When the distance between the position of the second window edge in the display interface and the preset position corresponding to the second window edge is smaller than a third distance threshold, the terminal device can refresh the content through the content in the sliding window or the newly added window; when the distance between the position of the second window edge in the display interface and the preset position corresponding to the second window edge is greater than or equal to the third distance threshold, the terminal device may further move the first window in a second extending direction opposite to the first extending direction, and may continue to extend the first window edge along the first extending direction for the first window after the movement, so as to further enlarge the first window, so that the first window may display new content for the user to browse, and improve the utilization rate of the display interface.
It should be understood that the third distance threshold may be set according to specific situations, for example, the third distance threshold may be set to a height corresponding to a row of contents, or may be set to a width corresponding to a column of contents, and so on. The window edges may be opposite up and down or left and right. For example, when a first window edge is a window upper edge, a second window edge opposite to the first window edge is a window lower edge; when the first window edge is the window left edge, the second window edge opposite to the first window edge is the window right edge. Similarly, the extending directions may be opposite to each other up and down, or left and right, that is, when the first extending direction is upward, the second extending direction opposite to the first extending direction is downward; when the first extending direction is towards the left, the second extending direction opposite to the first extending direction is towards the right.
When the window is moved, the moving distance of the window movement can be set by a user in a self-defined way or can be set by the terminal device in a default way. For example, when the content is displayed in the horizontal direction, the terminal device may default the moving distance to a height corresponding to one line (or two lines, etc.) of content. For example, when the content is displayed in the portrait mode, the terminal device may default the moving distance to the width corresponding to one column (or two columns, etc.) of content.
Alternatively, the moving distance may be determined by the terminal device according to a sliding distance corresponding to the first sliding operation that the user continues to perform in the first window. For example, the terminal device may determine, as the movement distance, a sliding distance corresponding to a first sliding operation that the user continues to perform in the first window. That is, after the terminal device responds to a first sliding operation (e.g., an upward sliding operation) performed by the user in the first window and extends the edge of the first window to the preset position corresponding to the edge of the first window, if the user continues to perform the upward sliding operation in the first window, the terminal device may obtain a sliding distance corresponding to the upward sliding operation, for example, when the sliding distance corresponding to the upward sliding operation is 2 centimeters, the terminal device may determine the moving distance to be 2 centimeters.
Alternatively, the moving distance may be determined by the terminal device according to a distance between a position of the second window edge in the display interface and a preset position corresponding to the second window edge, for example, the terminal device may determine a distance between a position of the second window edge in the display interface and a preset position corresponding to the second window edge as the moving distance, so as to directly maximize the window by one movement, thereby enabling the window to display more content.
It should be understood that, in a scenario in which the sliding distance corresponding to the first sliding operation is determined as the moving distance, when the sliding distance is greater than a distance between a position of the second window edge in the display interface and a preset position corresponding to the second window edge, the terminal device may also determine a distance between the position of the second window edge in the display interface and the preset position corresponding to the second window edge as the moving distance, so as to ensure complete display of the window.
In the embodiment of the application, when the distance between the position of the second window edge in the display interface and the preset position corresponding to the second window edge is greater than or equal to the third distance threshold, the terminal device may also directly extend the second window edge along the second extending direction, and may move the content in the first window in the second extending direction, so as to further enlarge the first window, so that the first window may display new content for the user to browse, and improve the utilization rate of the display interface. The basic principle of continuing to extend the second window edge along the second extending direction is the same as that of extending the first window edge along the first extending direction, and is not described herein again.
It can be understood that, after the terminal device extends the first window edge to the preset position corresponding to the first window edge and moves (or extends) the second window edge to the preset position corresponding to the second window edge, if the user continues to perform the first sliding operation in the first window to perform content refreshing, the terminal device may perform content refreshing through the content in the sliding window or the newly added window.
For ease of understanding, window movement is described below in connection with a particular application scenario.
As shown in fig. 8 (a), in a scenario where the content is displayed in a horizontal manner and the user performs downward refreshing of the content through an upward sliding operation, as shown in fig. 8 (b), after the terminal device responds to the upward sliding operation performed by the user in the first window and extends the window lower edge 802 to a preset position corresponding to the window lower edge (e.g., a position close to the lower edge 81 of the display interface), if the user continues to perform the upward sliding operation in the first window, the terminal device may obtain a distance between the window upper edge 801 and the upper edge of the display interface. When the distance between the window upper edge 801 and the upper edge 80 of the display interface is greater than or equal to the third distance threshold, as shown in fig. 8 (c) and fig. 8 (d), the terminal device may move the first window upward, and may continue the downward extension of the window lower edge 802 with respect to the moved first window to display new content by continuing to extend the extension 82 formed by the window lower edge 802 downward. After the window upper edge 801 moves to a position close to the upper edge 80 of the display interface and the window lower edge 802 extends to a position close to the lower edge 81 of the display interface, if the user continues to perform the operation of sliding down in the first window, the terminal device may perform content refreshing by sliding the content in the first window up as a whole or adding a new window in the display interface.
In the embodiment of the application, in the process of displaying content through the first window in the extended state, when the content height of the content currently displayed by the first window is smaller than the current window height of the first window (or the content width of the content currently displayed by the first window is smaller than the current window width of the first window), the terminal device may shrink the extended window edge to reduce the current window height (or window width) of the first window, thereby reducing the waste of the display area.
It will be appreciated that the direction of contraction of the window may be determined in accordance with the direction of extension in which the window extends, wherein the direction of contraction is opposite to the direction of extension. That is, when the extending direction is upward extension, the contracting direction may be downward contraction; when the extending direction is extending leftward, the contracting direction may be contracting rightward, and so on.
When the window is shrunk, the shrinking distance of the window shrinking may be determined according to the content height of the content currently displayed by the first window and the current window height of the first window (or may be determined according to the content width of the content currently displayed by the first window and the current window width of the first window). For example, when the content is displayed in a horizontal manner, the terminal device may determine a difference between a current window height of the first window and a content height of the content currently displayed in the first window as a shrinking distance of the window shrinking. When the content is displayed in the vertical direction, the terminal device may determine a difference between a current window width of the first window and a content width of the content displayed in the first window as a window contraction distance.
The terminal device may also be provided with a second sliding operation that triggers the terminal device to perform window contraction, and the second sliding operation may be any sliding operation different from the first sliding operation. When the user wants to shrink the first window in the extended state, the user can execute a second sliding operation in the first window, and when the terminal device detects the second sliding operation executed by the user in the first window, the window can be shrunk.
At this time, the shrinking distance of the window may also be determined according to the sliding distance corresponding to the second sliding operation, for example, the terminal device may determine the sliding distance corresponding to the second sliding operation as the shrinking distance of the window, so that the window shrinking is matched with the sliding operation of the user, and the user experience is improved.
It is understood that the shrinking distance of the window shrinking can also be set by the user or by default by the terminal device. For example, when the content is displayed in a horizontal manner, the user may set the contraction distance to a height corresponding to any number of lines of content, such as one line, two lines, and the like, in a customized manner. For example, when the content is displayed in the portrait mode, the terminal device may default the contraction distance to a width corresponding to any number of columns, such as one column, two columns, and the like.
In this embodiment, the terminal device may further determine a contraction distance according to the original state of the first window, so as to restore the extended first window to the original state. The original state refers to a default state in the display interface when the first window is not extended. Specifically, when the terminal device may obtain the original state, a first position of the first window edge in the display interface, and a second position of the first window edge in the display interface at present, and may determine a distance between the first position and the second position of the first window edge as a contraction distance of the first window edge, so as to retract the first window edge to the default position according to the contraction distance of the first window edge. Similarly, when the window is moved or the second window edge is extended, the terminal device may further obtain a first position of the second window edge in the display interface in the original state, and may obtain a second position of the second window edge currently in the display interface, and may determine a distance between the first position and the second position of the second window edge as a contraction distance of the second window edge, so as to contract the second window edge to the default position according to the contraction distance of the second window edge, thereby restoring the first window to the original state.
The operation of the window extension will be briefly explained below.
When the user performs the first sliding operation in the window, the touch sensor under the display interface may transmit a sliding input event corresponding to the first sliding operation to the processor in the terminal device. After receiving the sliding input event, the processor may distribute the sliding input event to the window manager and the application program corresponding to the window, where the sliding input event may include a sliding direction and a sliding distance performed in the window by the user, and the like. After the application program corresponding to the window receives the sliding input event, the extending direction and the extending distance of the window extension may be determined according to the sliding input event, for example, the extending direction of the window extension may be determined according to the sliding direction, and the extending distance of the window extension may be determined according to the sliding distance. In addition, the application program corresponding to the window can also determine the newly added display content according to the extension distance and the window size, and can send the determined extension direction and the extension distance to the window manager and send the newly added display content to the view system in the terminal device. After receiving the sliding input event, the extending direction and the extending distance, the window manager can adjust the window parameters according to the extending direction and the extending distance, and can transmit the adjusted window parameters to the view system. The window parameters may include window size, window position, and change information of the window. After receiving the adjusted window parameters and the newly added display contents, the view system can draw a window according to the adjusted window parameters and the newly added display contents, and can display the drawn window on a display interface for a user to browse.
(II) adding new window
In the content browsing process, the terminal device may add a new window in response to a sliding operation performed by the user in the first window to display new content through the newly added window.
In this embodiment of the application, after the first window is extended to the preset state through the window extension, if the user continues to perform the first sliding operation in the first window, the terminal device may add a new window in the display interface in response to the first sliding operation that the user continues to perform in the first window, so as to display new content through the newly added second window for the user to browse, where the new content displayed in the second window is continued to the content in the first window. The preset state may be a state in which the first window edge extends to the preset position corresponding to the first window edge, or a state in which the first window edge extends to the preset position corresponding to the first window edge and the second window edge moves (or extends) to the preset position corresponding to the second window edge.
Or, the terminal device may also be provided with a third sliding operation that can trigger the terminal device to directly add a new window. In the content browsing process, the user can directly execute a third sliding operation in the first window to trigger the terminal device to add a new window in the display interface. For example, after the terminal device extends the first window to the preset state through the window extension, the user may directly perform a third sliding operation in the first window, and after the terminal device detects the third sliding operation, the window may be directly added in the display interface. For example, when the terminal device displays content through the first window with the default size, the user may also directly perform the third sliding operation in the first window, and after detecting the third sliding operation, the terminal device may directly add a new window in the display interface. The third sliding operation is not limited in this embodiment, and may be an operation of sliding left, an operation of sliding right, or the like.
That is, in the embodiment of the present application, the terminal device may perform window addition after performing window extension, or may directly perform window addition when the window extension is not performed. The following are described separately: (1) newly adding a window after the window is extended; (2) And (4) directly adding a new window (namely, adding the new window when the window extension is not carried out).
(1) Newly-added window after window extension
In this embodiment, before adding a second window, the terminal device needs to determine the window size (including the window height and the window width) of the second window and the position relationship between the second window and the first window, so as to add the second window according to the window size of the second window and the position relationship between the second window and the first window.
Optionally, the window size of the second window may be determined according to the display mode of the content in the first window and the window size of the first window, so as to ensure that the second window can display the content according to the original content layout of the application, and avoid need of re-layout of the content in the application when the content is displayed through the second window.
For example, when the content is displayed in the horizontal direction, the terminal device may determine the window width of the first window as the window width of the second window, so as to avoid re-layout of the content displayed in the second window, thereby improving the content display efficiency. The window height of the second window may be determined according to the sliding distance corresponding to the first sliding operation that the user continues to execute in the first window, for example, the terminal device may directly determine the sliding distance corresponding to the first sliding operation as the window height of the second window, so that the newly displayed content of the second window is matched with the sliding operation of the user, and the user experience is improved. Alternatively, the window height of the second window may be determined according to the current window height of the first window, for example, the terminal device may determine the current window height of the first window as the window height of the second window, so as to directly maximize the second window, so that the terminal device may display more content through the second window for the user to browse. Of course, the terminal device may also determine the original window height of the first window as the window height of the second window.
For example, when the content is displayed in a portrait manner, the terminal device may determine the window height of the first window as the window height of the second window. The window width of the second window may be determined according to a sliding distance corresponding to the first sliding operation that the user continues to execute in the first window, or the original window width of the first window may be determined as the window width of the second window. The original window height and the original window width refer to the default window height and window width of the terminal device when the first window is not subjected to window extension.
It should be noted that, after determining the window size of the second window, the terminal device may obtain the remaining display area in the display interface, so as to determine whether to add the second window in the display interface according to the remaining display area and the window size of the second window. Specifically, when the display height of the remaining display area is greater than or equal to the window height of the second window, and the display width of the remaining display area is greater than or equal to the window width of the second window, the terminal device determines that the second window can be newly added in the display interface. When the display height of the remaining display area is smaller than the window height of the second window, or the display width of the remaining display area is smaller than the window width of the second window, the terminal device may determine that there is no sufficient display area in the display interface for adding the second window newly, and at this time, the terminal device does not add the second window in the display interface newly.
In an application scenario, the remaining display area refers to a display area of the display interface other than a window corresponding to an application being browsed by the user. In other words, in this scenario, the newly added second window may cover other windows in the display interface, so that the terminal device may preferentially perform content display of the second window. The window corresponding to the application being browsed by the user may include a first window and a second window that is newly added through the newly added window.
In another application scenario, the remaining display area refers to a blank display area of the display interface that is not occupied by a window. In other words, in this scenario, the terminal device may add the second window according to the blank display area in the display interface, so that the added second window does not cover other windows in the display interface, thereby avoiding the added second window from affecting the content display of other windows in the display interface, and improving the user experience. At this time, the other window is any window in the display interface.
In the embodiment of the application, the position relationship between the second window and the first window can be determined according to the display mode of the content in the first window and the browsing habit of the user in the display interface, so that the new content displayed through the second window conforms to the browsing habit of the user, and the user experience is improved.
For example, when the content is displayed in a horizontal manner, if the user is accustomed to browsing from left to right, the terminal device may determine that the second window should be located on the right side of the first window, that is, the terminal device may sequentially add new second windows on the right side of the first window based on the first sliding operation. Optionally, to ensure that more windows may be added to the display interface to display more contents for the user to browse, in this embodiment of the application, a distance between a left edge of a newly added second window and a right edge of a window of an adjacent window may be 0, and the adjacent window may be the first window or may be a second window that has been newly added before the newly added current second window. That is, when the second window is added for the first time, the terminal device may add the second window next to the right edge of the window of the first window; when the second window is newly added for the second time, the terminal device may newly add a second window next to the right edge of the window of the second window newly added for the first time, and when the second window is newly added for the third time, the terminal device may newly add a second window next to the right edge of the window of the second window newly added for the second time, and so on until the window cannot be newly added in the display interface, or the window does not need to be newly added to the content in the application, or the user stops newly adding the window. The content in the application does not need to be added with a new window, which means that the content in the application is completely displayed.
It can be understood that, when the window size of the second window is smaller than the window size of the first window (that is, the window height of the second window is smaller than the current window height of the first window), it indicates that the subsequent terminal device may perform window extension on the second window, and therefore, to improve the extension efficiency of the second window, the terminal device may further determine the specific position of the second window on the right side of the first window according to the extension direction of the window extension.
Specifically, when the extending direction is downward, the terminal device determines that the specific position of the second window on the right side of the first window may be a position closer to the window upper edge of the first window, that is, the distance between the window upper edge of the second window and the window upper edge of the first window is less than or equal to the distance between the window lower edge of the second window and the window lower edge of the first window, and the subsequent terminal device may extend the window lower edge of the second window downward according to the first sliding operation performed by the user to expand the second window to display more content. When the extending direction is upward, the terminal device determines that the specific position of the second window on the right side of the first window may be a position closer to the window lower edge of the first window, that is, the distance between the window upper edge of the second window and the window upper edge of the first window is greater than the distance between the window lower edge of the second window and the window lower edge of the first window, and the subsequent terminal device may extend the window upper edge of the second window upward according to the first sliding operation performed by the user to expand the second window to display more content.
When the window extension of the second window is performed, a user may perform the window extension of the second window by performing the first sliding operation on the first window, or may perform the window extension of the second window by performing the first sliding operation on the second window, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.
For example, as shown in (a) in fig. 9 and (b) in fig. 9, after the terminal device responds to a first sliding operation (e.g., an operation of sliding upward) performed by the user in the first window 901, and extends the window lower edge 9011 of the first window 901 to a preset position (e.g., a position close to the lower edge of the display interface) corresponding to the window lower edge, when the user continues to perform the operation of sliding upward in the first window 901, as shown in (c) in fig. 9, the terminal device may add a second window 902 to the right side of the first window 901. Subsequently, when the user continues to perform the operation of sliding up in the first window 901 or the second window 902, as shown in (d) of fig. 9, the terminal device may then extend the window lower edge 9021 of the second window 902 downward. After the window lower edge 9021 of the second window 902 extends to a position close to the lower edge of the display interface, if the user continues to perform the operation of sliding upward in the first window 901 or the second window 902, as shown in (e) in fig. 9 and (f) in fig. 9, the terminal device may continue to add the second window 903 newly on the right side of the window 902, and may continue to extend the window lower edge 9031 of the second window 903 downward in response to the operation of sliding upward in the first window 901, the second window 902, or the second window 903 by the user, and so on until no window can be added newly in the display interface.
For example, as shown in (a) of fig. 10 and (b) of fig. 10, after the terminal device responds to a first sliding operation (e.g., an upward sliding operation) performed by the user in the first window 1001, and extends the window upper edge 1011 of the first window 1001 to a preset position corresponding to the window upper edge (e.g., a position close to the window lower edge 101 of the window 10 corresponding to the short message application), when the user continues to perform the upward sliding operation in the first window 1001, as shown in (c) of fig. 10, the terminal device may add a second window 1002 to the right side of the first window 1001. Subsequently, when the user continues to perform the operation of sliding upward in the first window 1001 or the second window 1002, as shown in (d) in fig. 10, the terminal device may then extend the window upper edge 1021 of the second window 1002 upward. After the window upper edge 1021 of the second window 1002 extends to a position close to the window lower edge 101 of the window 10, if the user continues to perform the operation of sliding upward in the first window 1001 or the second window 1002, as shown in (e) in fig. 10 and (f) in fig. 10, the terminal device may continue to add the second window 1003 on the right side of the window 1002, and may continue to extend the window upper edge 1031 of the second window 1003 upward in response to the operation of sliding upward in the first window 1001, the second window 1002, or the second window 1003, and so on until no window can be added in the display interface.
For example, when the content is displayed in the vertical direction, if the user is used to browse from top to bottom, the terminal device may determine that the second window is located below the first window, that is, the terminal device may sequentially add new second windows to the lower side of the first window based on the first sliding operation. When the window size of the second window is smaller than the window size of the first window (that is, the window width of the second window is smaller than the current window width of the first window), it indicates that the subsequent terminal device may perform window extension on the second window, and therefore, to improve the extension efficiency of the second window, the terminal device may further determine the specific position of the second window on the lower side of the first window according to the extension direction of the window extension.
Specifically, when the extending direction is rightward, the terminal device determines that the specific position of the second window on the lower side of the first window may be a position closer to the left edge of the window of the first window. When the extending direction is towards the left, the terminal device determines that the specific position of the second window on the lower side of the first window can be a position closer to the right edge of the first window.
For example, as shown in fig. 11 (a) and 11 (b), after the terminal device extends the window left edge 1111 of the first window 1101 to a preset position corresponding to the window left edge (e.g., a position close to the left edge of the display interface) in response to a first sliding operation (e.g., an operation of sliding to the right) performed by the user in the first window 1101, when the user continues to perform the operation of sliding to the right in the first window 1101, as shown in fig. 11 (c), the terminal device may add a second window 1102 on the lower side of the first window 1101. Subsequently, when the user continues to perform the operation of sliding to the right in the first window 1101 or the second window 1102, as shown in (d) in fig. 11, the terminal device may then extend the window left edge 1121 of the second window 1102 to the left, and so on until no window can be added in the display interface.
Similarly, when the content is displayed in a horizontal manner, if the user is used to browse from right to left, the terminal device may determine that the second window is located on the left side of the first window. When the window size of the second window is smaller than the window size of the first window and the extending direction is downward, the terminal device determines that the specific position of the second window on the left side of the first window can be a position closer to the upper edge of the first window. When the window size of the second window is smaller than the window size of the first window and the extending direction is upward, the terminal device determines that the specific position of the second window on the left side of the first window may be a position closer to the lower edge of the window of the first window.
When the content is displayed in the vertical mode, if the user is used to browse from bottom to top, the terminal device may determine that the second window is located on the upper side of the first window. When the window size of the second window is smaller than that of the first window and the extending direction is leftward, the terminal device determines that the specific position of the second window on the upper side of the first window may be a position closer to the right edge of the first window. When the window size of the second window is smaller than the window size of the first window and the extending direction is rightward, the terminal device determines that the specific position of the second window on the upper side of the first window may be a position closer to the left edge of the first window.
In the embodiment of the application, after determining that the second window can be newly added in the display interface according to the remaining display area in the display interface, and determining the position relationship between the second window and the first window and the window size of the second window, the terminal device can newly add the second window according to the remaining display area in the display interface, the position relationship between the second window and the first window, and the window size of the second window.
For example, when it is determined that a second window is newly added on the right side of the first window, if the region width of the remaining display region on the right side of the first window is greater than or equal to the window width of the second window, the terminal device may directly add the second window on the right side of the first window to perform new content display. If the area width of the remaining display area on the right side of the first window is smaller than the window width of the second window, it indicates that the remaining display area on the right side of the first window cannot completely display the second window, at this time, the terminal device may move the first window to the left, and add a second window to the right side of the moved first window to display new content. The distance that the first window moves to the left may be determined according to the area width of the remaining display area on the left side of the first window, or may be determined according to the difference between the area width of the remaining display area on the right side of the first window and the window width of the second window.
Optionally, when the area width of the remaining display area on the right side of the first window is greater than or equal to the window width of the second window and the remaining display area also exists on the left side of the first window, in order to ensure that the new content displayed on the second window can be closer to the sight of the user, and facilitate the user to browse the content in the second window, so as to improve the user experience, the terminal device may also first move the first window to the left, and then may add the second window on the right side of the first window to display the new content. The distance of the left movement of the first window can be determined according to the window width of the second window and the area width of the left remaining display area of the first window. For example, when the area width of the remaining display area on the left side of the first window is greater than or equal to the window width of the second window, the distance that the first window moves to the left may be the window width of the second window, so that the second window may be displayed at the original position of the first window, and a user may browse new content in the second window conveniently. For example, when the area width of the remaining display area on the left side of the first window is smaller than the window width of the second window, the distance that the first window moves to the left may be the area width of the remaining display area on the left side of the first window, so that the second window may be close to the line of sight of the user, which is convenient for the user to browse new content in the second window.
It can be understood that, after the first second window is newly added on the right side of the first window, if the left side of the first window still has the remaining display area, when the terminal device continues to perform window addition, the first window and the first second window may be continuously moved to the left as a whole, and then the second window is newly added on the right side of the first second window to display new content, so that the newly added second window may be close to the line of sight of the user, thereby facilitating the user to continuously browse the new content in the newly added second window. Similarly, when a third and a fourth second windows are newly added, the window may be moved according to the remaining display area on the left side of the first window.
For example, in the scenario shown in (a) in fig. 12, when the terminal device determines that a window needs to be added on the right side of the first window 1201, as shown in (b) in fig. 12, the terminal device may first move the first window 1201 to the left, and then add the second window 1202 on the right side of the first window 1201, so that the second window 1202 may be directly displayed at the original position of the first window 1201, and at this time, the line of sight of the user is generally located at the original position of the first window 1201, so that the user can view the new content in the second window 1202 without performing line of sight movement, which greatly facilitates the user to browse. After the second window 1202 is newly added, when the terminal device determines that windows need to be added, as shown in (c) in fig. 12, the terminal device may first move the first window 1201 and the second window 1202 to the left, and then may add a second window 1203 to the right side of the second window 1202, so that the second window 1203 may be close to the current line of sight of the user, thereby facilitating the user to continue browsing new content in the second window 1203.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment of the application, when it is determined that a second window is newly added on the left side of a first window, or it is determined that a second window is newly added on the upper side/lower side of the first window, the terminal device may also refer to the above similar manner to perform window addition, and details are not described here again.
In the embodiment of the application, when the display interface can not display more contents for the user to browse through the window extension and the newly added window, if the user continues to execute the first sliding operation in the first window or any newly added second window to refresh the contents, the terminal device can slide the contents of the first window and all the second windows as a whole, namely, the contents in the second window added for the Nth time can be moved to the second window added for the Nth-1 time, wherein the contents in the second window added for the Nth time, the contents in the first time, the contents in the second window, the first time, and the contents in the second window are moved to the first window to slide the contents, so that the new contents are displayed for the user to browse. Wherein N is an integer greater than or equal to 1.
After the window is newly added, the terminal device may shrink the window edge or delete the window according to the content height and the window height of the content displayed by the window (or the content width and the window width of the content displayed by the window), so as to reduce the waste of the display area and improve the display efficiency. For example, when the content is displayed horizontally, when the terminal device detects that the height of the content in the second window added for the nth time is smaller than the height of the second window added for the nth time, the terminal device may perform window edge shrinking on the second window added for the nth time; when the terminal device detects that the height of the content in the second window added for the nth time is 0, the terminal device may directly delete the second window added for the nth time. For example, when the content is displayed in the portrait mode, when the terminal device detects that the content width in the second window added for the nth time is smaller than the window width of the second window added for the nth time, the terminal device may perform window edge shrinking on the second window added for the nth time; when the terminal device detects that the content width in the second window added at the nth time is 0, the terminal device may directly delete the second window added at the nth time. Wherein n is any value of [1, N ]. The shrinking of the window edge of the second window added at the nth time by the terminal device may refer to the shrinking process in the window extension, which is not described herein again.
It can be understood that, after the window is newly added, the user can actively delete the window according to actual needs. Namely, a fourth sliding operation for triggering the terminal device to delete the window can be set in the terminal device. When the user wants to delete a window, the user may perform a fourth sliding operation in the first window or any of the second windows. And after the terminal equipment detects the fourth sliding operation executed by the user, the window can be deleted. Wherein, the order of window deletion can be determined according to the display order of the windows. For example, the order of window deletion may be the order in which the last displayed window was deleted first and the first displayed window was deleted last. For example, the order of window deletion may be the order in which the last displayed window was deleted last and the first displayed window was deleted first.
Similar to window deletion in the window management interface, in the embodiment of the present application, when window deletion is performed based on a fourth sliding operation of a user, the terminal device may also directly delete the window corresponding to the fourth sliding operation. That is, when window deletion is performed, the user may directly perform the fourth sliding operation in the window (including the first window and the second window) that is desired to be deleted, and after the terminal device detects the fourth sliding operation in the window, the window may be directly deleted.
(2) Directly adding new window (i.e. adding new window when not extending window)
When the content of the application is not suitable for split display, for example, when the picture of the gallery application is displayed through the window, if the picture is split displayed through window extension, the browsing experience of the user is obviously affected, and therefore, in order to improve the browsing experience of the user, for the content which is not suitable for split display, the terminal device may add a second window to display based on the sliding operation executed by the user in the first window. The window size of the newly added second window can be the same as the current window size of the first window, so that the content display effect is improved, and the user experience is improved.
That is, when the terminal device detects a first sliding operation performed by a user in the first window while displaying the first content of an application through the first window, the terminal device may first determine whether or not a second content following the first content in the application is suitable for split display. When the terminal device determines that the second content is not suitable for split display, for example, when the second content is a picture not suitable for split display, the terminal device may directly add a new second window in the display interface to display the second content in response to a first sliding operation performed by the user in the first window.
Or, in this embodiment of the present application, the terminal device may also be provided with a third sliding operation that can directly trigger a new window of the terminal device. In the content browsing process, when the user wants to directly display more contents through one sliding operation or determines that the contents are not suitable for split display, the user can directly execute a third sliding operation in the first window. After detecting the third sliding operation executed by the user in the first window, the terminal device can directly add a second window with the same size as the current window of the first window in the display interface for content display, thereby facilitating the browsing of the user. The third sliding operation may be an operation of sliding upward, an operation of sliding downward, an operation of sliding leftward, an operation of sliding rightward, or the like, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.
In this embodiment of the application, before adding a window, the terminal device needs to determine a position relationship between the second window and the first window, so as to add the second window according to the position relationship between the second window and the first window. The position relation between the second window and the first window can be determined according to the browsing habits of the user.
For example, when the user is used to browse in the order from top to bottom and from left to right, the terminal device may determine the position relationship between the second window and the first window according to the order from top to bottom and from left to right. Specifically, when the second window is newly added, the terminal device may first add the second window a to the lower side of the first window. When the second window cannot be added to the lower side of the first window, the terminal device may add a second window B to the right side of the first window, and then may add a second window to the lower side of the second window B. When the second window cannot be added to the lower side of the second window B, the terminal device may add a second window C to the right side of the second window B, and then add a second window to the lower side of the second window C, and so on until the window cannot be added to the display interface, or the content in the application does not need to be added to the window again, or the user stops adding the window again.
For example, in a picture browsing scene, as shown in (a) in fig. 13 and (b) in fig. 13, when the terminal device detects a third sliding operation (e.g., an operation of sliding to the left) performed by the user in the first window 1301, since a window cannot be added to the lower side of the first window 1301, the terminal device may add a second window 1302 to the right side of the first window 1301. Subsequently, when the user continues to perform the operation of sliding left in the first window 1301 or the second window 1302, as shown in (c) in fig. 13, the terminal device may continue to add a second window 1303 on the right side of the second window 1302, and so on until no window can be added in the display interface.
For example, in a picture browsing scene, as shown in (a) in fig. 14 and (b) in fig. 14, when the terminal device detects a third sliding operation (such as an operation of sliding to the left) performed by the user in the first window 1401, the terminal device may add a second window 1402 to the lower side of the first window 1401 in advance. Subsequently, when the user continues the operation of sliding to the left performed in the first window 1401 or the second window 1402, as shown in (c) in fig. 14, the terminal device may continue to add a second window 1403 to the right side of the first window 1401. Subsequently, when the user continues the operation of sliding left performed in the first window 1401, the second window 1402, or the second window 1403, as shown in (d) in fig. 14, the terminal device may then newly add a second window 1404 on the lower side of the second window 1403.
For example, in an electronic book reading scene, as shown in (a) in fig. 15 and (b) in fig. 15, after the terminal device extends the first window 1501 to a preset state in response to a first sliding operation (such as an operation of sliding up) performed by the user in the first window 1501, when the user wants to directly display more contents through one sliding operation, the user may directly perform a third sliding operation in the first window 1501, taking as an example the operation in which the third sliding operation is a sliding left operation. After the terminal device detects the operation of sliding to the left performed by the user in the first window 1501, as shown in (c) of fig. 15, the terminal device may add a second window 1502 directly to the right of the first window 1501. Alternatively, as shown in fig. 15 (d), the terminal device may first move the first window 1501 to the left, and then add the second window 1502 to the original position of the first window 1501, so that the added second window 1502 may be closer to the line of sight of the user, thereby facilitating the browsing of the user. The window size of the second window 1502 is the same as the size of the first window 1501, so that the terminal device can directly display more contents through the second window 1502 for the user to browse.
For example, when the user is used to browse from right to left and from top to bottom, the terminal device may determine the position relationship between the second window and the first window according to the sequence from right to left and from top to bottom.
For example, in the e-book reading scene shown in fig. 16 (a), after the terminal device detects a third sliding operation (e.g., an upward sliding operation) performed by the user in the first window 1601, as shown in fig. 16 (b), the terminal device may add a second window 1602 to the left side of the first window 1601. Subsequently, when the user continues to perform the operation of sliding up in the first window 1601 or the second window 1602, as shown in (c) in fig. 16, the terminal apparatus may newly add a second window 1603 on the lower side of the first window 1601. Subsequently, when the user continues to perform the operation of sliding up in the first window 1601, the second window 1602, or the second window 1603, as shown in (d) in fig. 16, the terminal device may add a second window 1604 on the left side of the second window 1603.
It can be understood that, when the user is used to browse in the order from top to bottom and from right to left, the terminal device may determine the position relationship between the second window and the first window according to the order from top to bottom and from right to left. When a user is used to browse from left to right and from top to bottom, the terminal device may determine the position relationship between the second window and the first window according to the sequence from left to left and from top to bottom.
It should be noted that, in a scenario that the terminal device is a terminal device with a foldable display screen, and the first window is located in the first display screen of the foldable display screen, when the terminal device detects a first sliding operation performed by a user in the first window, the terminal device may directly add a second window in the second display screen of the foldable display screen to display the second content, where the second content is continuous with the first content displayed in the first window. The window size of the second window may be determined by referring to the aforementioned determination method. The position of the second window in the second display screen may be set by the terminal device by default, or may be set by the user by self, or may be determined by the terminal device according to the position of the first window in the first display screen, that is, the terminal device may determine the first display screen and the second display screen as one display interface, and then may determine the position of the second window in the second display screen by referring to the aforementioned determination manner.
In the embodiment of the application, after the second window is newly added, the user can delete the window according to actual needs. That is, the terminal device may be provided with a fifth sliding operation for triggering the terminal device to delete the window, and the fifth sliding operation may be the same as or different from the fourth sliding operation. Specifically, when the user wants to delete a window, the user may perform a fifth sliding operation in the first window or any of the second windows. And after the terminal equipment detects the fifth sliding operation executed by the user, the window can be deleted. Wherein, the order of window deletion can be determined according to the window display order. For example, the order of window deletion may be the order in which the last displayed window was deleted first and the first displayed window was deleted last. For example, the order of window deletion may be the order of last deletion of the last displayed window and first deletion of the first displayed window.
It should be noted that, similar to window deletion in the window management interface, in the embodiment of the present application, when window deletion is performed based on a fifth sliding operation of a user, the terminal device may also directly delete a window corresponding to the fifth sliding operation. That is, when window deletion is performed, the user may directly perform the fifth sliding operation in the window (including the first window and the second window) that is desired to be deleted, and after the terminal device detects the fifth sliding operation in the window, the window may be directly deleted.
In the embodiment of the application, in a scene in which content in an application can be displayed in a split manner, after the terminal device responds to a third sliding operation executed by a user in the first window or the second window to directly add a new second window, the terminal device may further respond to a first sliding operation executed by the user in the first window or the second window to perform window extension on the first window and/or the second window. That is, the user may first perform a third sliding operation in the first window to add a new second window. Then, the user can execute a first sliding operation in the first window or the second window to trigger the terminal device to perform window extension. When the window is extended, the terminal device may respectively perform window extension on all windows corresponding to the application, or may perform window extension on a window corresponding to the first sliding operation, so that the window corresponding to the application may display more contents for a user to browse. Here, the specific window extending operation may refer to the aforementioned window extending, and is not described herein again.
For example, in an e-book reading scene, when the terminal device performs a third sliding operation (such as an operation of sliding leftward) in the first window 1701 while the terminal device is performing content display in the first window 1701 as shown in (a) of fig. 17, the terminal device may add a second window 1702 to the right of the first window 1701 as shown in (b) of fig. 17. After newly adding the second window 1702, when the user performs a first sliding operation (such as an operation of sliding upward) in the first window 1701 or the second window 1702, taking the operation of sliding upward in the second window 1702 as an example, as shown in fig. 17 (c), the terminal device may extend the upper window edges of the first window 1701 and the second window 1702 upward, respectively, so that the first window 1701 and the second window 1702 may display more content. Alternatively, as shown in (d) of fig. 17, the terminal device may extend only the window upper edge of the second window 1702 upward, so that the second window 1702 can display more content. When the window extends, the content in the window also moves correspondingly.
2. The window is a window for other equipment (hereinafter referred to as second terminal equipment) to cast a screen in the terminal equipment (hereinafter referred to as first terminal equipment)
After the first terminal device and the second terminal device establish device cooperation, the first terminal device may display the content of the second terminal device through a first window with a default size, for example, display the content of an application in the second terminal device, so that a user may browse the content of the application in the first terminal device. When the user browses the content of the application through the first window, if the user wants to continue browsing the new content or the browsed content of the application in the first terminal device, the user may perform a sliding operation in the first window, such as an operation of sliding upward or an operation of sliding leftward, and the like. After the first terminal device detects the sliding operation executed by the user in the first window, the window can be automatically expanded to display the new content or the browsed content of the application, so that the user can browse conveniently.
The first terminal device can extend the window through the window extension and/or the new window to display new content or browsed content for a user to browse. Here, the basic principle of the window extension performed by the first terminal device is the same as that of the window extension in the aforementioned "the window is a window corresponding to the terminal device self application", and the basic principle of the new window performed by the first terminal device is also the same as that of the new window in the aforementioned "the window corresponding to the terminal device self application", and specific contents may refer to the foregoing description, and are not described again here.
In the embodiment of the application, when the first terminal device expands the window based on the sliding operation performed by the user in the first window to additionally display new content or browsed content in the first terminal device, the first terminal device may convert a first sliding input event corresponding to the sliding operation detected in the first window into a second sliding input event corresponding to the second terminal device, and send the second sliding input event to the second terminal device, and may also send information of the new content or the browsed content that needs to be additionally displayed to the second terminal device. After receiving the second sliding input event sent by the first terminal device and the information of the new content or the browsed content which needs to be additionally displayed, the second terminal device may update the content displayed by the second terminal device, so as to synchronously display the new content or the browsed content additionally displayed in the first terminal device in the second terminal device, so that the content displayed by the second terminal device is matched with the sliding operation executed by the user in the first window of the first terminal device.
Specifically, when the content is displayed in the horizontal mode, if the content height of the new content (or the browsed content) that is additionally displayed in the first terminal device is greater than or equal to the display height of the second terminal device, the second terminal device may directly display the newly added new content (or the browsed content) in the display interface, and the content height of the displayed new content (or the browsed content) is the display height of the second terminal device, so as to update the content displayed by the second terminal device. If the content height of the new content (or the browsed content) which is additionally displayed in the first terminal device is smaller than the display height of the second terminal device, the second terminal device can display the new content (or the browsed content) and the current content which is partially connected with the new content (or the browsed content) in the display interface, and the total height of the displayed new content (or the browsed content) and the current content is the display height of the second terminal device so as to update the content displayed by the second terminal device. The display height of the second terminal device refers to the height of a display interface of the second terminal device, and the current content is the content being displayed by the second terminal device before the content of the second terminal device is updated.
For example, in a scenario in which the second terminal device displays the gallery application, after the first terminal device 180 and the second terminal device 181 establish device cooperation, as shown in (a) in fig. 18, the first terminal device 180 may display a first picture of the gallery application through a first window 1801 of a default size, where the first picture is a picture currently being displayed by the second terminal device 181. When the user wants to browse the next picture, the user may perform a fourth sliding operation (e.g., an operation of sliding left) in the first window 1801 of the first terminal device 180. Upon detecting the operation of the left-sliding performed by the user in the first window 1801, the first terminal device 180 may add a second window 1802 on the right side of the first window 1801, as shown in (b) in fig. 18, to add a second picture displaying the gallery application through the newly added second window 1802. Meanwhile, the second terminal device 181 may also perform synchronous update of the picture, that is, the picture currently displayed in the display interface may be updated from the first picture to the second picture.
For example, in a scenario in which the second terminal device displays an e-book application, after the first terminal device 190 establishes device cooperation with the second terminal device 191, as shown in (a) of fig. 19, the first terminal device 190 may display first content of the e-book application, which is content currently being displayed by the second terminal device 191, through a first window 1901 of a default size. When the user wants to continue browsing new contents of the e-book application, the user may perform a first sliding operation (such as an operation of sliding up) in the first window 1901 of the first terminal device 190. After the first terminal device 190 detects the operation of the upward sliding performed by the user in the first window 1901, as shown in (b) in fig. 19, the first terminal device 190 may extend the upper window edge of the first window 1901 upward to increase the display of the second content 192 of the e-book application by the extended portion formed by extending the upper window edge upward. Meanwhile, the second terminal device 191 may also perform synchronous update of the content, that is, may display the second content 192 and the first content partially connected to the second content 192 in the display interface.
Specifically, when the content display mode is horizontal display, if the content width of the new content (or the browsed content) that is additionally displayed in the first terminal device is greater than or equal to the display width of the second terminal device, the second terminal device may directly display the newly added new content (or the browsed content) in the display interface, where the content width of the displayed new content (or the browsed content) is the display width of the second terminal device, so as to update the content displayed by the second terminal device. If the content width of the new content (or the browsed content) which is additionally displayed in the first terminal device is smaller than the display width of the second terminal device, the second terminal device can display the new content (or the browsed content) and the current content which is partially connected with the new content (or the browsed content) in the display interface, and the total width of the displayed new content (or the browsed content) and the current content is the display width of the second terminal device so as to update the content displayed by the second terminal device. The display width of the second terminal device refers to the width of a display interface of the second terminal device, and the current content is the content being displayed by the second terminal device before the content of the second terminal device is updated.
In the embodiment of the application, the user may also perform a sliding operation in the second terminal device to trigger the first terminal device expansion window. Specifically, when the first terminal device displays the content of an application in the second terminal device through the first window with the default size, if the user wants to continue browsing the new content or the browsed content of the application in the first terminal device, the user may perform a sliding operation in the display interface of the second terminal device, that is, perform a sliding operation in the window corresponding to the application in the second terminal device. After the second terminal device detects the sliding operation performed by the user, the second terminal device may convert a second sliding input event corresponding to the detected sliding operation into a first sliding input event corresponding to the first terminal device, and send the first sliding input event to the first terminal device. After receiving the first sliding input event sent by the second terminal device, the first terminal device can automatically expand the first window in the first terminal device, so that the first terminal device can display more contents, and a user can browse conveniently.
It is understood that after the window is expanded by the first terminal device, the user may perform corresponding operations on the content of the application in the first terminal device or the second terminal device, for example, copy the content, enlarge the content, reduce the content, and the like. When a user operates the content synchronously displayed in the first terminal device and the second terminal device, such as when the user operates the content in the second terminal device, the first terminal device and the second terminal device can both display the operation performed by the user, such as when copying the content, selection frames of the copied content can be respectively displayed in the first terminal device and the second terminal device. When a user operates the difference content in the first terminal device and the second terminal device, the first terminal device may display the operation being executed by the user, and at this time, the second terminal device does not display the operation being executed by the user in the first terminal device, but may display a prompt message for prompting the user that the hidden content in the application is currently being operated. The difference content refers to content which is displayed in the first terminal device but not displayed in the second terminal device. That is, when a user operates content in a first terminal device, if the operated content is content that is simultaneously displayed in a second terminal device, the first terminal device and the second terminal device can both display the operation being performed by the user; if the operated content is only displayed on the first terminal device and not displayed on the second terminal device, the operation executed by the user may be displayed in the first terminal device, and the prompt information may be displayed in the second terminal device to prompt the user that the hidden content in the application is currently being operated.
The working principle of the window extension in this scenario is briefly explained below.
When a user performs a sliding operation in the first window of the first terminal device, the first terminal device may perform extension of the first window according to the sliding operation, and a process of performing the first window extension by the first terminal device is the same as a process of performing window extension by the terminal device in the aforementioned (first) window extension, "which is not described herein again.
Meanwhile, the first terminal device may convert a first sliding input event corresponding to the sliding operation into a second sliding input event corresponding to the second terminal device and send the second sliding input event to the second terminal device, where the second sliding input event may include a sliding direction, a sliding distance, a second window corresponding to the sliding operation, and an application program corresponding to the second window. Meanwhile, the first terminal device may send information of the newly added display content required for the extension of the first window to the second terminal device. After receiving the second sliding input event and the information of the display content required to be newly added, the second terminal device may send the second sliding input event to a window manager in the second terminal device and an application program corresponding to the second window, and send the information of the display content required to be newly added to the application program. After receiving the second sliding input event and the information of the display content required to be newly added, the application program can determine the newly added display content and send the newly added display content to the view system in the second terminal device. After receiving the second sliding input event, the window manager in the second terminal device may determine a window parameter corresponding to the second window, and send the window parameter to the view system in the second terminal device. After receiving the window parameter and the newly added display content, the view system in the second terminal device may perform window drawing according to the window parameter and the newly added display content, and may display the drawn window on a display interface of the second terminal device for a user to browse, that is, on a position where the second window is located for the user to browse.
When the user performs a sliding operation in the second window of the second terminal device, the touch sensor under the display interface of the second terminal device may transmit a second sliding input event corresponding to the sliding operation to the processor in the second terminal device. After receiving the second sliding input event, the processor may send the second sliding input event to a window manager in the second terminal device and an application program corresponding to the second window. After receiving the second sliding input event, the application program can determine the newly added display content and send the newly added display content to the view system in the second terminal device. The window manager in the second terminal device receives the second sliding input event, may determine a window parameter corresponding to the second window, and sends the window parameter to the view system in the second terminal device. After receiving the window parameter and the newly added display content, the view system in the second terminal device may perform window drawing according to the window parameter and the newly added display content, and may display the drawn window on a display interface of the second terminal device for a user to browse, that is, on a position where the second window is located for the user to browse.
Meanwhile, the second terminal device may convert the second sliding input event into a first sliding input event corresponding to the first terminal device and send the first sliding input event to the first terminal device, where the first sliding input event may include a sliding direction, a sliding distance, a first window corresponding to a sliding operation, and an application program corresponding to the first window. Meanwhile, the second terminal device may send information of the newly added display content of the second terminal device to the first terminal device. After receiving the first sliding input event and the information of the newly added display content, the first terminal device may send the first sliding input event to the application program and a window manager in the first terminal device, and send the information of the newly added display content to the application program. After receiving the first sliding input event and the information of the newly added display content, the application program can determine the extending direction and the extending distance of the window extension according to the first sliding input event and send the extending direction and the extending distance to the window manager in the first terminal device. Meanwhile, the application program can determine the newly added display content according to the information of the newly added display content and send the newly added display content to the view system in the first terminal device. After receiving the first sliding input event, the extending direction and the extending distance, the window manager in the first terminal device may adjust the window parameter of the first window according to the extending direction and the extending distance, and send the adjusted window parameter to the view system in the first terminal device. After receiving the adjusted window parameter and the newly added display content, the view system in the first terminal device may perform window drawing according to the adjusted window parameter and the newly added display content, and may display the drawn window on a display interface of the first terminal device for a user to browse, that is, on a position where the first window is located for the user to browse.

In the embodiment of the application, when the content is displayed through the small window, when the sliding operation that the user wants to look over more content is detected by the terminal equipment, the window can be automatically expanded by the terminal equipment to display more content, so that the user can browse conveniently, the user experience is improved, and the method and the device have high usability and practicability.
