In some embodiments, a system homepage displayed after the display device is powered on is a Widget application interface, that is, the system homepage is a Widget panel including Widget controls arranged according to a preset order, and when a user clicks any one of the Widget controls, an application corresponding to the Widget control is started and related content of the application is displayed.

In some embodiments, the view display area for displaying the Widget panel may occupy the whole screen, or may occupy a part of the screen, such as the left area of the screen.

In some embodiments, a user may start a Widget application and display a Widget panel by inputting a preset operation.

In some embodiments, the display device receives the input preset operation through the JUUI application, and the JUUI application starts the Widget application after receiving the preset operation. And the Widget application displays Widget panels in different states according to different attributes of the current working mode. Specifically, if the current working mode is the standard mode, displaying a Widget panel in the first state, wherein all Widget controls displayed in the Widget panel in the first state are available; and if the current working mode is a kid mode or an education mode, displaying the Widget panel in the second state, wherein at least one Widget control in the Widget panel in the second state is unavailable. Therefore, in the standard mode, the user can open all the Widget controls, and in the kid mode or the education mode, the user cannot directly open the Widget controls which are limited to be used in the corresponding mode.

In some embodiments, after the Widget application is started, the mode attribute variables in the system attribute data are read, and the current working mode is determined according to the read mode attribute variables. Therefore, the Widget panels in different states are presented according to different attributes of the current working mode. It can be seen that system attribute data can be shared between the Widget application and the JUUI application, and decoupling between the Widget application and the JUUI application is achieved by sharing the system attribute data.

For example, when displaying the JUUI application standard mode interface (such as the standard mode home page shown in fig. 6), the user may press a left direction key (hereinafter, referred to as "left key") of the remote controller for a long time to trigger the display of the Widget panel. And after receiving the operation, the JUUI application pulls up the Widget application in an implicit starting mode of Intent. After the Widget application is started, mode attribute variables in the system attribute data are read, and the current working mode can be judged to be the standard mode according to the read mode attribute variables, so that a Widget panel in a first state is displayed, the Widget panel in the first state comprises one or more Widget controls, and each Widget control can be used. When the Widget panel in the first state is displayed, a user can start an application corresponding to the Widget by operating any Widget control on the Widget panel, and display related content of the application.

It is noted that the JUUI application is switched to the background operation after the Widget application is pulled up in response to the received preset operation, and the Widget application is operated in the foreground. Furthermore, after the Widget application is started, the Widget control on the Widget panel can acquire the focus, and the JUUI application cannot acquire the focus. The specified Widget on the Widget panel firstly acquires the focus, and the selector indicating the position of the focus is displayed on the specified Widget control by default. When the Widget panel is displayed, the user can move the position of the selector through corresponding operation so as to select different Widget controls. For example, the specified Widget control may be a Widget control of a first bit order on the Widget panel.

In some embodiments, the JUUI application moves the content in the standard mode interface to the right content area of the display for display in the lateral right direction of the display while pulling up the Widget application in response to the received preset operation. And after the Widget application is started, displaying a Widget panel in a left content area of the display. In this way, the contents in the JUUI application standard mode interface can be continuously displayed while the Widget panel is displayed.

In some embodiments, the right content area of the display is referred to as the first content area and the left content area of the display is referred to as the second content area. It should be understood that the sizes of the first content area and the second content area may be preset according to the requirement.

In some implementations, a portion of the content on the left side of the standard mode interface is displayed in the right content area at the original display size, and another portion of the content on the right side is hidden. Illustratively, the width W of the left content area is first configured according to the pre-configuration ₁ Determining the distance X ═ W to move to the right ₁ (ii) a A new display position coordinate (X) for each interface element in the standard mode interface is then calculated based on the distance moved to the right ₀ +X，Y ₀ ) Wherein (X) ₀ ，Y ₀ ) And displaying the position coordinates of each interface element. And finally, on the basis of keeping the original display size of each interface element unchanged, displaying each interface element at a new display position, and hiding the interface elements beyond the right edge of the display window.

In other implementations, all of the content in the standard mode interface is displayed in the right content region at the compressed display size. Illustratively, the width W of the left content area is first configured according to the pre-configuration ₁ Determining the width W of the right content area ₂ ＝W _max -W ₁ ，W _max The maximum width of the user interface. Then according to the right content areaAnd the maximum width of the user interface calculates the reduction ratio S, S ═ W ₂ /W _max . The new display size of each interface element in the standard mode interface is calculated according to the reduction ratio as (a) ₀ ×S)×(b ₀ X S) in which a ₀ ×b ₀ The original display size of an interface element. And finally, displaying all contents in the standard mode interface in a right-side content area in a new display size.

In other embodiments, the Widget panel is displayed overlaid on the contents of the JUUI application standard mode interface. The Widget panel may be configured to be semi-transparent, so that the covered content in the interface may be displayed through the Widget panel.

Fig. 7 is a user interface, shown in some exemplary embodiments, of the present application, and specifically, the user interface is displayed upon receiving a long-press left key operation triggered by a user while displaying the standard mode home page shown in fig. 6. As shown in fig. 7, a Widget panel in a first state is displayed in a content area on the left side of the user interface, and a plurality of Widget controls, which are respectively "signal source", "application center", "Router", "setting", "player", "standard", "multi-screen interaction", "city service", "discovery", "contact", "device", "AI Camera", are displayed in the Widget panel; the content in the standard mode home page continues to be displayed in the right content area of the user interface.

It is noted that in this example, items in the standard mode home page are displayed aligned with the left boundary of the right content section in the original layout parameters, subject to the size of the right content section, and displayed content in the standard mode home page that exceeds the right boundary of the user interface is hidden. The original layout parameters refer to the layout parameters of the items in fig. 6. That is, when the user presses the left key for a long time, the Widget panel is displayed in the left content area of the user interface, and the items in the standard mode homepage are entirely shifted to the right content area, and the displayed content beyond the right boundary of the user interface is hidden.

In some embodiments, when displaying the Widget panel as described above, the user may input a return command by operating a return key on the remote controller or pressing a right key for a long time to control the Widget panel to be collapsed and returned to the standard mode homepage. And after receiving the input return instruction, the Widget application exits from the foreground, and the Widget panel is retracted. And the JUUI application quits from the foreground in response to the Widget application, switches to the foreground to run, and displays the standard mode interface in a full screen mode.

In some embodiments, the user may control the switch to the kids mode or educational mode interface through a designated control on the JUUI standard mode home page. As the juvenile mode or the education mode interface can display juvenile media assets or education media assets, the functions of children in families, which are irrelevant to juvenile or education, can be limited, and the children can learn in a pure space without being interfered by other factors.

Notably, the kid mode interface of the JUUI application is different from the "kid" heading interface nested in the standard mode home page. On the one hand, the kid mode interface is independent, and the display scheme can be configured independently, while the title interface of 'kid' is nested in the standard mode homepage, and the display scheme is a part of the display scheme of the standard mode homepage; on the other hand, the displayed content of the kid mode interface is different from that of the title interface of 'kid'. In some embodiments, an "education" control may also be included in the TAB field of the standard mode home page, and an "education" title interface will be displayed in the lower content display area when focus is placed on "education". It should be understood that the "education" title interface is different from the user interface in the education mode based on the similar reasoning as the "kids" title interface and is not described here in detail.

Illustratively, the user may move focus to the "kids" control by operating while displaying the JUUI standard mode home page as shown in FIG. 7. When focus falls on the "kids" control, the displayed title interface changes to the "kids" title interface. Fig. 8 illustrates one possible "kids" heading interface. As shown in fig. 8, the interface includes "kids mode", "parent center", and other functional controls, wherein the user can control to enter into the kids mode by operating the "kids mode" control. And after receiving the operation of the user on the 'kid mode' control, the JUUI application displays a kid mode homepage and sets the mode attribute value in the local attribute data as a second value.

Fig. 9 is a juvenile mode home page of the present application in some embodiments, and in particular, a user interface for a user to select and enter after determining a "juvenile mode" control while displaying the "juvenile" heading interface of fig. 8. As shown in fig. 9, the kids mode home page includes an "exit kids mode" control, wherein the user can trigger the switch to the standard mode by operating the "exit kids mode" control.

In some embodiments, when displaying the kid mode home page, the user may trigger the start of the Widget application and the display of the Widget panel through preset operations.

For example, when displaying the kid mode home page as shown in fig. 9, the user may press the left key of the remote control for a long time to trigger the display of the Widget panel. And the JUUI application receives the preset operation and pulls up the Widget application in an Intent starting mode. And after the Widget application is started, reading the mode attribute variables in the system attribute data, and judging that the current working mode is a juvenile mode according to the read mode attribute variables, so that the Widget panel in the second state is displayed. Unlike the first-state Widget panel displayed in the standard mode, at least one Widget control is not available in the second-state Widget panel displayed in the kid mode.

In some embodiments, the Widget panel in the second state includes a hidden Widget and an unlocking control for triggering the hidden Widget to appear, that is, the Widget panel in the second state does not display any Widget, so that all Widget controls are made unavailable by hiding them. At this time, the user cannot view the Widget controls on the Widget panel, and cannot operate any Widget control.

It is noted that, after the JUUI application is pulled up in response to the received preset operation, the operation is switched to the background operation, and the Widget application is operated in the foreground. Furthermore, after the Widget application is started, the unlocking control on the Widget panel can acquire the focus, and the JUUI application cannot acquire the focus. When the user operates the unlocking control, the Widget application responds to the operation (such as clicking operation) of the unlocking control, displays a password input interface and receives a password input by the user in the password input interface. After receiving the password input by the user, the Widget application verifies whether the input password is correct; and if the input password is verified to be correct, controlling the hidden Widget control to be displayed in the Widget panel, so as to release the locking state of the Widget panel.

In some embodiments, the unlocked Widget panel is the same as the Widget panel in the first state.

After unlocking the Widget panel, the user can move the position of the selector through corresponding operation to select different Widget controls. The user can start the application corresponding to the Widget control and display the related content of the application by operating the selected Widget control.

In some embodiments, in addition to the unlocking control, auxiliary information, such as time information, weather information, unlocking prompt information, and the like, may also be displayed on the Widget panel in the second state.

In some embodiments, the JUUI application moves the content in the kid mode interface to the right content area of the display to be displayed in the lateral right direction of the display while the Widget application is being pulled up in response to the received preset operation. And after the Widget application is started, displaying the Widget panel in the second state in the left content area of the display. In this way, the content in the kid mode interface can be continuously displayed while the Widget panel is displayed.

In some implementations, a left portion of the content in the kid mode interface is displayed in the right content area at the original display size, and another right portion of the content is hidden. Alternatively, the entire content in the juvenile mode interface is displayed in the right content area in a compressed display size. For a more specific implementation, reference may be made to the content described above for the standard mode interface, which is not described herein again.

In other embodiments, the Widget panel in the second state is displayed superimposed on the content of the kids mode interface. The layer where the Widget panel in the second state is located can be set to be semi-transparent, so that the covered content in the interface can be displayed through the layer where the Widget panel is located.

Fig. 10 is a user interface, shown in some embodiments, of the present application, and in particular, a user interface displayed upon receiving a long-press left key operation while displaying the homepage of the juvenile mode system shown in fig. 9. As shown in fig. 10, a Widget panel is displayed in the left content area of the user interface, and an unlocking control and auxiliary information are displayed on the Widget panel, where the auxiliary information specifically includes time information "12: 34 ", the greeting of" good noon "and the weather information of" today-11-2 ℃, clear turning and cloudy ". The kids mode system home page continues to be displayed in the right content area of the user interface. It is noted that in this example, items in the kid mode system home page are displayed in alignment with the left boundary of the right view display area in the original layout parameters, subject to the size of the right view display area, and displayed content in the kid mode system home page that exceeds the right boundary of the user interface is hidden. The original layout parameters refer to the layout parameters of the items in fig. 9.

Fig. 11 is a user interface shown in some embodiments of the present application, where the user interface is specifically a password input interface displayed after a user operates an unlocking control in a Widget panel. As shown in fig. 11, in the password input interface, an operable numeric soft key, a delete key, and a password input area are displayed. The user can select a number to be input by moving the focus, input the selected number by a confirmation operation, and delete the input number by operating the delete key. It should be understood that FIG. 11 is only one example of a password entry interface. The password entry interface displayed in different products may be different. For example, in some embodiments, a 6-digit or 8-digit password can be input in a password input area in the password input interface, a letter and/or symbol soft key can be displayed, a clear key can be displayed, and the like.

Fig. 12 is a user interface, shown in some embodiments of the present application, embodied as a user interface that is displayed after a user enters a correct password in a password entry interface. As shown in fig. 12, the unlocked Widget panel is displayed in the content area on the left side of the user interface, and a plurality of Widget controls, which are respectively "signal source", "application center", "city service", "courtyard", "contact", "player", "fitness plan", "standard", "device", and "smart camera", are displayed on the Widget panel. Items in the homepage of the juvenile mode system are integrally translated to the right content area of the user interface, and displayed content in the page beyond the right boundary of the user interface is hidden.

In some embodiments, if the Widget application verifies that the password input by the user in the password input interface is correct, the mode attribute variable in the system attribute data is modified to a second value or a third value.

In some embodiments, the JUUI application polls the schema attributes variable in the system attributes data, and updates the currently displayed juvenile mode interface or educational mode interface to a standard mode interface when polling is done until the schema attributes system changes from a second value or a third value to a first value.

In other embodiments, the JUUI application reads the schema attribute variables in the system attribute data when the JUUI application switches from background to foreground operation. If the read schema attribute variable is a first value, a standard schema interface is displayed. And if the read mode attribute value is the second value or the third value, continuing to display the kid mode interface or the education mode interface. Therefore, when the user successfully unlocks the Widget panel in the kid mode or the education mode and controls the Widget application to exit through the return instruction, the Widget application exits from the foreground, the JUUI application is switched to the foreground, and the mode attribute value is read to be the first value, so that the currently displayed kid mode or education mode interface is updated to be the standard mode interface, namely the kid mode or education mode is switched to be the standard mode.

In some embodiments, in the Widget panel in the second state, the Widget control is normally displayed, wherein the specified Widget control is not available, and the specified Widget control refers to a Widget control that is restricted to be used in the kids mode and/or the education mode. In specific implementation, after the Widget application is pulled up by the JUUI application, determining the mode attribute of each Widget according to the configuration information of each Widget, and if the Widget application is in a juvenile mode and/or an education mode, displaying a Widget control icon containing an unavailable identification, and configuring the Widget into an unavailable state; and if the mode is the standard mode, displaying the Widget control icon which does not contain the unavailable identification. In these embodiments, the user can normally view the Widget panel to obtain all Widget controls on the Widget panel, and the user can directly operate available Widget controls but cannot directly operate unavailable Widget controls.

In some embodiments, when the user selects an unavailable Widget control and determines, the Widget application displays a password input interface as shown in fig. 11 in response to the user operation, and receives a password input by the user at the password input interface.

In some implementation manners, if the Widget application verifies that the password input by the user in the password input interface is correct, the Widget application directly pulls up the application corresponding to the Widget control operated by the user. After the corresponding application is started, the related content of the application can be directly displayed in the left content area, and the interface of the application can also be displayed in a full screen mode.

In other implementation manners, if the Widget application verifies that the password input by the user in the password input interface is correct, the Widget control operated by the user is activated to be in an available state, and the unavailable identification on the icon of the Widget control is cancelled. When the user operates the Widget again, the user can open the application corresponding to the Widget, that is, the related content of the application is displayed.

Fig. 13 is a user interface, shown in some exemplary embodiments, of the present application, and in particular, a user interface displayed upon receiving a long left-click operation while displaying a juvenile mode system home page. In the user interface shown in fig. 13, a Widget panel is displayed in a view display area on the left side of the user interface, and a plurality of Widget controls are displayed on the Widget panel, which are respectively "signal source", "application center", "civic service", "courtesy", "contact", "player", "fitness plan", "standard", "device", and "smart camera". The 'signal source', 'application center', 'city service', 'device' are unusable Widget controls, locking corner marks are displayed on the unusable Widget controls, and other Widget controls are usable Widget controls.

When the user interface shown in fig. 13 is displayed, if the user selects the unavailable application center control and confirms, the Widget application will respond to the user's operation on the application center, display the password input interface shown in fig. 11, and receive the password input by the user in the password input interface. In some implementations, if the Widget application verifies that the password entered by the user in the password entry interface is correct, the application centric application module is pulled up directly. After the application center application module is started, a plurality of application program icons can be displayed in the left content area, and the application program icons are the primary project content corresponding to the application center control. Or after the application center application module is started, displaying the homepage of the application center application module in a full screen mode, and displaying a plurality of application program icons in the homepage. In other implementations, if the Widget application verifies that the password entered by the user in the password entry interface is correct, the locking corner mark on the "application center" control is removed. The user needs to operate the application center control again to expand the application icons corresponding to the application center control in the left content area.

Fig. 14 illustrates a user interface displayed after a correct unlock password is entered in the password entry interface. Unlike the user interface shown in fig. 13, in fig. 14, a plurality of application icons are displayed floating above the Widget panel.

In some embodiments, the unlocking passwords corresponding to different Widget controls are the same or different. After the Widget application receives the password input by the user through the password input interface, the received password is compared with the correct password corresponding to the Widget control selected by the user, so that whether the password input by the user is correct or not is determined, and if the password input by the user is correct, the Widget control selected by the user is activated into the available Widget control.

In some embodiments, when a user selects a Widget control with a locking corner mark and enters a correct unlocking password in a password input interface, all unavailable Widget controls in the Widget panel may be activated as available Widget controls.

Following the foregoing example, when displaying the user interface shown in fig. 13, if the user selects the "application center" control and confirms, the Widget application will display the password input interface shown in fig. 11 in response to the user operating the "application center" and receive the password input by the user in the password input interface. If the Widget application verifies that the password input by the user in the password input interface is correct, all the locking corner marks on the unusable Widget controls in the Widget panel are cancelled, and the user interface shown in fig. 15 is further displayed. In fig. 15, the locking corner marks on the "signal source", "application center", "city service", and "device" controls all disappear, meaning that the "signal source", "application center", "city service", and "device" controls are all activated as available Widget controls.

In some embodiments, when displaying the Widget panel in the global locking state or the local locking state as described above, the user may input a return command by operating a return key on the remote controller or pressing a right key for a long time, and control the Widget panel to be collapsed and returned to the standard mode homepage or continue to display the kids mode homepage or the education mode homepage. Specifically, after receiving the input return instruction, the Widget application exits from the foreground, and the Widget panel is retracted. And the JUUI application quits from the foreground in response to the Widget application, switches to the foreground to operate and reads the mode attribute variables in the system attribute data. And if the read mode attribute variable is a first value, updating the currently displayed standard mode interface or the juvenile mode interface to the standard mode interface. And if the read mode attribute value is the second value or the third value, continuing to display the kid mode interface or the education mode interface.

In some embodiments, when the Widget panel in the first state is displayed or the Widget panel is unlocked, the Widget control in the Widget panel may obtain the focus, and the user may select the target Widget to operate by moving the focus position. When the focus is on the target Widget control, the user can click the target Widget control by operating a 'confirm' button on the remote controller. And after receiving the operation of the target Widget control, the Widget application starts the application corresponding to the target Widget control and displays the relevant content of the application.

In some embodiments, after the application corresponding to the Widget control operated by the user is started, the first-level item content of the application may be displayed in a preset content area, for example, floating on the Widget panel and displayed in a left content area of the user interface. A primary page of the application, such as an application home page, may also be displayed full screen.
