After the number of the floating windows displayed in the display screen reaches the supportable upper limit, if other contents need to be displayed through the floating windows, the floating windows can be switched. Fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of a switching floating window according to an embodiment of the present application.

In one possible implementation, the user may switch the hover window by clicking on an application in the sidebar to select the application that wants to be displayed with the hover window. For example, the inner screen of a folding screen phone currently displays a home screen interface as shown in fig. 5 a, and there are two floating windows on the home screen interface, namely, an information floating window 103 and a calculator floating window 502, which can be unfolded by any one of the methods shown in fig. 1-4 or any other method. When the folding screen phone receives an operation of the user sliding inward along the side edge of the phone, the interface of the folding screen phone may display the side bar 101 as shown in fig. 5 b.

However, the number of the suspension windows which can be supported to be unfolded by the terminal equipment is small, at most, two suspension windows can be unfolded simultaneously, and when more than two suspension windows are provided, other suspension windows are automatically converted into suspension balls for superposition display, so that the large screen characteristic can not be reasonably utilized; after the number of the floating windows displayed in the display screen reaches the supportable upper limit, if other contents are required to be displayed through the floating windows, the switching of the floating windows can be realized by switching the floating windows, and the original floating windows are switched by clicking the floating ball or clicking the side bar list to select the application which is required to be displayed by the floating windows, so that the operation process is complicated; and each floating window corresponds to different applications respectively, so that single-application multitasking can not be realized in a plurality of floating windows.

In view of this, the embodiment of the present application provides a floating window control method, when a terminal device receives that a user drags a floating window to collide with other floating windows and lifts a finger of the user to stop touching an operation of a display screen after the collision, contents of two floating windows may be fused to form a split-screen floating window, and the collision between the dragging floating window and the split-screen floating window may be continued to be fused again. Therefore, more contents can be displayed in one floating window, the characteristics of a large screen can be reasonably utilized, the interface jump times are reduced, the operation of a user is convenient, and the use experience of the user is improved.

The floating window control method based on S901-S911 may optionally further include, after the seventh floating window is displayed on the first interface by the terminal device: the terminal equipment receives a seventh operation; in response to the seventh operation, the terminal equipment additionally displays an eighth floating window on the first interface; the terminal equipment receives an eighth operation; in response to the eighth operation, the terminal device replaces the content of the first target area in the seventh floating window with the content corresponding to the eighth floating window, and cancels the display of the eighth floating window.

The seventh operation may be understood as an operation of opening the eighth floating window. The eighth floating window may be understood as an information floating window 801. The eighth operation may be understood as an operation of replacing the content of the first target area in the seventh floating window with the content corresponding to the eighth floating window. The first target area is an area to which the eighth operation is directed in the first area, the second area, the third area, or the fourth area.

It will be appreciated that the eighth operation is equally applicable to operations on other multi-split-screen floating windows, such as two-split-screen floating windows, three-split-screen floating windows. Therefore, the suspension blocks in the multi-split screen suspension window can be directly replaced, so that the operation of a user is more convenient.

Optionally, the content corresponding to the first floating window, the content corresponding to the second floating window, the content corresponding to the third floating window and the content corresponding to the fourth floating window are respectively displayed in the seventh floating window in the sub-regions, wherein the content corresponding to the first floating window and the content corresponding to the fourth floating window can come from the same application, and further, the simultaneous operation of single application multitasking can be realized in one floating window. The seventh floating window can be understood as the floating window of fig. 11 d.

For example, a usage scenario of single application multitasking may be: three different tasks of the memo are simultaneously displayed in one four-split screen floating window, so that the three different tasks can be simultaneously compared and processed. Or, multiple monitoring pictures can be displayed on the terminal device by utilizing the multi-split-screen floating window to monitor different positions. Such as home monitoring equipment, so that the condition of a plurality of positions in the home can be checked at the same time; or, for example, a vehicle recorder can be provided with cameras in multiple directions, and the situation of each position can be recorded and checked at the same time. It will be appreciated that single application multitasking may be implemented in other multi-split floating windows as well, the number of zones of the multi-split floating window being greater than or equal to three.

Therefore, different tasks of the same application can be displayed in one multi-split-screen floating window at the same time, the interface jump times are reduced, and the user experience is improved.

The floating window control method based on S901-S911 may optionally further include, after the seventh floating window is displayed on the first interface by the terminal device: the terminal equipment receives a ninth operation; in response to the ninth operation, the terminal device displays a ninth floating window and a tenth floating window on the first interface, the ninth floating window including contents of a second target area in the seventh floating window, the tenth floating window including contents of the seventh floating window other than the contents of a second target area, the second target area being an area to which the ninth operation is directed in the first area, the second area, the third area, or the fourth area.

The ninth operation may be understood as an operation of exiting a certain split screen from the multi-split screen floating window. The ninth floating window may be understood as an information floating window, for example, when the terminal device receives an operation of dragging the information floating window by a user, the terminal device withdraws the information floating window from the quarter-screen floating window in response to the operation, and the information floating window and a triple-screen floating window are displayed on a main screen interface of the terminal device.

It will be appreciated that the ninth operation is equally applicable to operations on other multi-split-screen floating windows, such as two-split-screen floating windows, three-split-screen floating windows.

As shown in fig. 15, taking fusion to form a four-split screen floating window as an example, the four floating windows to be fused are an information floating window, a calculator floating window, a memo floating window and a gallery floating window, and the specific fusion process is as follows:

the main screen interface of the terminal equipment comprises an information floating window and a calculator floating window, the terminal equipment receives the operation that a user clicks and drags the calculator floating window to move towards the information floating window and enable the two floating windows to collide, after the information floating window collides with the calculator floating window, the terminal equipment receives the operation that a user lifts a finger to stop touching, and the content of the information floating window and the content of the calculator floating window are fused into two split-screen floating windows.

The process of fusing the memo floating window and the two split-screen floating window into the three split-screen floating window, and the process of fusing the gallery floating window and the three split-screen floating window into the four split-screen floating window can refer to the process of fusing the information floating window and the calculator floating window into the two split-screen floating window, and are not repeated here.

The specific implementation steps of the multi-split-screen suspended window comprise:

s1001, the terminal equipment constructs two floating windows to be fused into a floating window split screen pair.

For example, the terminal device constructs the information floating window and the calculator floating window as a floating window split screen pair.

S1002, calculating the window position and the size of the fused floating window according to the layout and the content of the split screen pairs of the floating window.

S1003, the terminal equipment plays the floating window fusion dynamic effect.

S1004, the terminal equipment generates a multi-split-screen floating window according to the window position and size of the floating window after fusion and the layout and the content of the split-screen pairs of the floating window.

For example, the terminal device generates a two-split-screen floating window as shown in d of fig. 8 or e of fig. 8 according to the window position and the size of the fused floating window calculated in step S1002, and the layout and the content of the first floating window and the second floating window.

In this way, the content of a plurality of floating windows can be fused into one floating window.

As shown in fig. 16, taking a four-division-screen floating window as an example, a specific process of converting one key of the four-division-screen floating window into a split-screen mode is as follows:

clicking a button in a central split line area of the four-split suspended window, and switching one key of the four-split suspended window into a four-split window mode.

The specific implementation steps of the four-split screen suspension window in the split screen mode are as follows:

s1101, the terminal equipment switches the window mode from the floating window mode to the split screen mode.

S1102, the terminal equipment calculates the positions and the sizes of a first split screen area, a second split screen area, a third split screen area and a fourth split screen area, wherein the first split screen area is used for displaying the content corresponding to the first floating window in the seventh floating window, the second split screen area is used for displaying the content corresponding to the second floating window in the seventh floating window, the third split screen area is used for displaying the content corresponding to the fourth floating window in the seventh floating window, and the fourth split screen area is used for displaying the content corresponding to the sixth floating window in the seventh floating window.

S1103, the terminal equipment plays the floating window switching split screen animation.

And S1104, the terminal equipment displays the content in the seventh floating window in the first split screen area, the second split screen area, the third split screen area and the fourth split screen area in a split screen mode.

Thus, the multi-split-screen floating window can be switched into the multi-split-screen mode by one key.
