In some embodiments, the pressure sensor 180A may be disposed on the display screen 194. The pressure sensor 180A is of various types, such as a resistive pressure sensor, an inductive pressure sensor, a capacitive pressure sensor, and the like. The capacitive pressure sensor may be a capacitive pressure sensor comprising at least two parallel plates with conductive material.

In this embodiment, the electronic device 100 may execute the display method provided in the embodiment of the present application through the processor 110, and the display screen 194 displays a message or a prompt box obtained by the display method.

By way of example, the electronic device 100 may include, but is not limited to, any electronic product based on an intelligent operating system that can interact with a user via an input device such as a keyboard, a virtual keyboard, a touch pad, a touch screen, and a voice control device. Such as smartphones, tablet computers (Tablet personal computer, tablet PCs), handheld computers, wearable electronic devices, personal computers (personal computer, PCs), desktop computers, and the like. The electronic device may also include, but is not limited to, any internet of things (internet of things, ioT) device. The IoT device may be, for example, a smart sound box, a Television (TV), an in-vehicle display of an automobile, and so forth. Among these, intelligent operating systems include, but are not limited to, any operating system that enriches device functionality by providing various applications to the device, such as the android Android, IOS, windows, MAC or hong system (Harmony OS) operating systems.

The software system of the electronic device 100 shown in fig. 1 may employ a layered architecture, an event driven architecture, a micro-core architecture, a micro-service architecture, or a cloud architecture. The embodiment of the present application exemplifies a software system of a hierarchical architecture, and exemplifies a software structure of the electronic device 100. Fig. 2 illustrates a software architecture block diagram of the electronic device 100 according to an embodiment of the present application.

The layered architecture divides the software into several layers, each with distinct roles and branches. The layers communicate with each other through a software interface. In some embodiments, the system is divided into four layers, from top to bottom, an application layer, an application framework layer, runtime (run time) and system libraries, and a kernel layer, respectively.

The application layer may include a series of application packages.

As shown in fig. 2, the application package may include applications (also referred to as applications) such as cameras, gallery, calendar, phone calls, maps, navigation, WLAN, bluetooth, music, video, short messages, etc.

The application framework layer provides an application programming interface (application programming interface, API) and programming framework for application programs of the application layer. The application framework layer includes a number of predefined functions.

As shown in FIG. 2, the application framework layer may include a window manager, a content provider, a view system, a telephony manager, a resource manager, a notification manager, and the like.

The window manager is used for managing window programs. The window manager can acquire the size of the display screen, judge whether a status bar exists, lock the screen, intercept the screen and the like.

The content provider is used to store and retrieve data and make such data accessible to applications. The data may include video, images, audio, calls made and received, browsing history and bookmarks, phonebooks, etc.

The view system includes visual controls, such as controls to display text, controls to display pictures, and the like. The view system may be used to build applications. The display interface may be composed of one or more views. For example, a display interface including a text message notification icon may include a view displaying text and a view displaying a picture.

The telephony manager is used to provide the communication functions of the electronic device 100. Such as the management of call status (including on, hung-up, etc.).

The resource manager provides various resources for the application program, such as localization strings, icons, pictures, layout files, video files, and the like.

The notification manager enables the application to display notification information in a status bar or a preset designated location (for example, a message notification area described in the embodiments of the present application, which will be described in detail below, and not described in detail herein), and may be used to convey a notification type message, and may automatically disappear after a short stay, without user interaction. Such as notification manager is used to inform that the download is complete, message alerts, etc. The notification manager may also be a notification presented in the form of a chart or scroll bar text in the system top status bar, such as a notification of a background running application, or a notification presented on a screen in the form of a dialog interface. For example, a text message is prompted in a status bar, a prompt tone is emitted, the electronic device vibrates, and an indicator light blinks, etc.

The Runtime (run time) includes core libraries and virtual machines. Run time is responsible for scheduling and management of the system.

The core library consists of two parts: one part is the function that the programming language (e.g., the java language) needs to call, and the other part is the core library of the system.

The application layer and the application framework layer run in a virtual machine. The virtual machine executes the programming files (e.g., java files) of the application layer and the application framework layer as binary files. The virtual machine is used for executing the functions of object life cycle management, stack management, thread management, security and exception management, garbage collection and the like.

The system library may include a plurality of functional modules. For example: surface manager (surface manager), media Libraries (Media Libraries), three-dimensional graphics processing Libraries (e.g., openGL ES), two-dimensional graphics engines (e.g., SGL), etc.

The surface manager is used to manage the display subsystem and provides a fusion of two-Dimensional (2D) and three-Dimensional (3D) layers for multiple applications.

Media libraries support a variety of commonly used audio, video format playback and recording, still image files, and the like. The media library may support a variety of audio and video encoding formats, such as MPEG4, h.264, MP3, AAC, AMR, JPG, PNG, etc.

The three-dimensional graphic processing library is used for realizing 3D graphic drawing, image rendering, synthesis, layer processing and the like.

The 2D graphics engine is a drawing engine for 2D drawing.

The kernel layer is a layer between hardware and software. The kernel layer at least comprises a display driver, a camera driver, an audio driver, a sensor driver and a virtual card driver.

The workflow of the electronic device 100 in combination with the software and hardware is illustrated below in connection with capturing a photo scene.

When touch sensor 180K receives a touch operation, a corresponding hardware interrupt is issued to the kernel layer. The kernel layer processes the touch operation into the original input event (including information such as touch coordinates, time stamp of touch operation, etc.). The original input event is stored at the kernel layer. The application framework layer acquires an original input event from the kernel layer, and identifies a control corresponding to the input event. Taking the touch operation as a touch click operation, taking a control corresponding to the click operation as an example of a control of a camera application icon, the camera application calls an interface of an application framework layer, starts the camera application, further starts a camera driver by calling a kernel layer, and captures a still image or video by the camera 193. This example is merely illustrative of the flow of the electronic device 100 software and hardware interoperating with each other and is not limiting of the present application.

In order to solve the problem that a black opaque area in a display screen of an electronic device affects user experience, a display method is provided.

First, to facilitate understanding of black opaque regions in a display screen of an electronic device, reference may be made exemplarily to fig. 3A, 3B, 4A, and 4B. In the display screen shown in fig. 3A and 3B, the black opaque region may be circular. This form of display screen may also be referred to as a perforated screen. In the perforated screen shown in fig. 4A and 4B, the black opaque regions may be rounded rectangles. This form of display may also be referred to as Liu Haibing.

As can also be seen in fig. 3A, 3B, 4A and 4B described above, a black opaque region in the display screen may be disposed directly above the display screen (see, e.g., fig. 3A and 4A). Alternatively, a black opaque region in the display screen may be disposed at the upper left of the display screen (see, e.g., fig. 3B and 4B). Alternatively, the black opaque region in the display screen may be disposed at the upper right of the display screen. Alternatively, the black opaque region in the display screen may be disposed at any position in the display screen, which is not limited by the embodiments of the present application. In the embodiment of the present application, the orientation of the display screen, such as the right upper side, the left upper side, or the right upper side, refers to the orientation determined from the user's angle when the user faces the display screen.

In a possible implementation manner, a hardware device is arranged in an area covered by a black opaque area in the display screen, and the hardware device provides services for users through the black opaque area. The black opaque area in the display screen may, for example, be where the camera of the electronic device is located, i.e. may be a camera aperture. In another possible embodiment, the black opaque area in the display screen may be, for example, where an earpiece of the electronic device is located. In another possible embodiment, the black opaque area in the display screen may be, for example, where a sensor of the electronic device is located. Merely an example here, embodiments of the present application do not limit the use of the black transparent region.

In a possible embodiment, the black opaque region of the display screen is not limited to the circular or rounded rectangle. Illustratively, the black opaque region may be any shape such as square, drop-shaped, rounded trapezoid, or oval, and the shape of the black opaque region is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

In a possible embodiment, the display screen shown in fig. 3A, 3B, 4A, and 4B may be rectangular. In a specific implementation, the shape of the display screen is not limited to be a rectangular shape, but may be any shape such as a rounded rectangle, a folded screen or a curved screen, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.

Since the black opaque region in the display screen is arranged in the display screen suddenly, the black opaque region affects the viewing experience of the user when the user views the user interface by using the display screen. For this reason, the embodiment of the present application provides a display method, and a specific implementation of the display method provided by the embodiment of the present application will be described in the following by way of example.

In a specific implementation, some notification messages may be displayed around a black opaque region of the display screen during use of the display screen by a user, and the region of the display screen where these notification messages are displayed may be referred to as a message notification region. These notification messages may be some prompt messages or may be human-machine interaction indication messages or the like. These notification messages may be unexpected to the user and may enhance the user's interests and experience, so the negative experience of the black opaque region may be counteracted by the positive action of these notification messages.

In one possible embodiment, reference may be made exemplarily to fig. 5A and 5B. Fig. 5A illustrates a black opaque region directly above the display screen, and fig. 5B illustrates a black opaque region at the upper left of the display screen. It can be seen that in the display screen, the message notification area may enclose a black opaque area.

In one possible embodiment, one can exemplarily see fig. 5C. Fig. 5C illustrates an example where the black opaque region is directly above the display screen. It can be seen that the message notification area can be located to the left of the black opaque area in the display. In this embodiment of the present application, the directions of up, down, left, right, etc. refer to directions determined from the user's angle when the user faces the display screen, and are the same as the above, and are not repeated in the following description. In another possible embodiment, the message notification area may also be located to the right of the black opaque area.

The message notification area is located around the black opaque area, and the message notification area and the black opaque area may or may not intersect, for example. The embodiment of the application does not limit the area size of the display screen occupied by the message notification area, and the area size can be preset. The embodiment of the application does not limit the shape of the message notification area. The embodiment of the application does not limit visual effects such as color, line or brightness in the message notification area. To facilitate an understanding of the specific presentation of the message notification area, the following is presented by way of example with the black opaque area directly above the display screen.

Referring to fig. 6A, specific notification messages may be displayed in a message notification area of a display screen, and the notification messages may be displayed in text form, for example.

In one possible implementation, the notification message may be associated with a hardware device disposed in the black opaque region. For ease of understanding, reference may be made to fig. 6B for exemplary purposes. In fig. 6B, it is assumed that the hardware device provided in the black opaque region includes a camera, and the black opaque region includes a camera hole therein. Then, in the case where the camera is about to be called up or has been called up, information related to the camera may be displayed around the black opaque region, that is, a message notification region. For example, taking a scenario in which the camera is about to be invoked as an example in fig. 6B, a prompt message of "12-point conference about to start, please pre-test the camera" is displayed in the message notification area. The user, after seeing the prompt, ignores the negative experience of the black opaque region, and instead feels interesting and practical to display the notification message in combination with the black opaque region. In other words, in the embodiment of the present application, the notification message appears around the hardware strongly related to the current notification content, so that the time and the position of the message both conform to or exceed the expectations of the user, and different experiences are brought to the user.

The application scenario of the camera to be invoked or already invoked is not limited to the application scenario of the video conference invoking camera, and may be, for example, the following application scenario:

for example, an application scene that calls a camera to take a picture or video may also be used. For example, after the electronic device starts the camera, a prompt message of "good recording with lens" may be displayed in the message notification area.

For example, the application scenario may also be an application scenario that invokes a camera to make a video call. For example, in the process that the electronic device initiates the video call to wait for the counterpart to answer, a prompt message of "make the camera bring a pleasant online meeting for you" may be displayed in the message notification area. For example, after the electronic device receives the request for the video call, a prompt message of "turning on a pleasant online meeting bar through the camera quickly" may be displayed in the message notification area.

For example, the method can be an application scene of calling a camera of the electronic device to perform face recognition. For example, after the electronic device activates the camera, a prompt message "expect to know unique you" may be displayed in the message notification area.

It should be noted that the application scenario described above and the information displayed in the message notification area are only examples. In a specific implementation, the embodiment of the application can be applied to all scenes calling the camera. In different application scenarios, the information displayed in the message notification area may be the same or may be different. The embodiment of the application does not limit the specific content of the information displayed in the message notification area.

In another possible implementation, the hardware device provided in the black opaque region is not limited to a camera, but may be other devices, such as a headset, etc. Taking the earpiece as an example, in case the earpiece is about to be invoked or has been invoked, information related to the earpiece may be displayed around the black opaque area, i.e. the message notification area. For example, a prompt message "please get close to your ear" may be displayed in the message notification area. The embodiment of the application does not limit the hardware devices arranged in the black opaque region. The specific content of the information related to the hardware device displayed in the message notification area is not limited.

For example, a specific flow of displaying a notification message in the above-described message notification area may be exemplarily seen in fig. 6C. In a specific implementation, after the electronic device receives a preset operation or monitors a preset event, a message may be sent to trigger a processing operation of a notification manager (such as the notification manager shown in fig. 2) in the electronic device. The preset operation may be an operation of calling a hardware device provided in the above-described black opaque region. The preset event may be an event that the hardware device set in the above-described black opaque region is to be called. The notification manager then matches the content of the notification message to be displayed immediately based on the corresponding keyword in the operation or event. And the notification message is processed by a notification graphic engine (e.g., a 2D graphic engine and/or a 3D graphic drawing as shown in fig. 2) and then displayed in a designated area, i.e., the message notification area. The designated area may be, for example, an area predetermined in the course of User Interface (UI) design.

Referring to fig. 6C, the electronic device receives an operation of calling the hardware device set in the above-mentioned black opaque region and may also send a message to the hardware device. The hardware device is started in response to the message. Optionally, the hardware device may also indicate a corresponding light flash or constant bright, etc. in response to the message.

The hardware device disposed in the above-described black opaque region is exemplified as a camera. The operation of calling the hardware device set in the black opaque region may be an operation of calling the camera. The operation of invoking the camera may be, for example, an operation of touching (or clicking) a camera application icon received by the electronic device, for example. Alternatively, the operation of invoking the camera may be, for example, an operation of touching (or clicking) the shooting control or touching (or clicking) the shooting control received by the electronic device in a user interface of a third party application (for example, an application with shooting function such as a WeChat, a tremble, or a fast hand). Alternatively, the operation of invoking the camera may be, for example, an operation of touching (or clicking) a video call acceptance control received by the electronic device. Alternatively, the operation of invoking the camera may be, for example, an operation of touching (or clicking) a control received by the electronic device to join the video conference. Alternatively, the operation of invoking the camera may be, for example, an operation of touching (or clicking) a face recognition control or touching (or clicking) a confirmation control for face recognition verification received by the electronic device.

Taking the above-mentioned hardware device set in the black opaque region as an example of a camera. The event that the hardware device set in the black opaque region is to be called may be an event that the camera is to be called. For example, an event monitoring unit in the electronic device may be used to monitor the event that is about to invoke the camera. The event that will call up the camera may be, for example, an event that a predetermined video conference is about to start. Specifically, the event monitoring unit monitors that a predetermined video conference is about to start, and senses that the conference requires a camera to be invoked, then the event monitoring unit may trigger a processing operation of the notification manager by a message. The event that will call up the camera may be, for example, a timed shot event. Specifically, the event monitoring unit monitors the event photographed at the timing, and then the event monitoring unit may trigger a processing operation of the notification manager by a message.

It should be understood that the notification message implemented by the notification manager in the above embodiment is merely an example, and in other embodiments, other similar software functional modules may also be used to implement operations such as generating and displaying a message. For example, the software module may be a software module in an operating system, a software module of an application, or a combination of the software module of the operating system and the software module of the application.

Referring to fig. 7A, fig. 7A differs from fig. 6A described above in that in fig. 7A, a black opaque region and a message notification region are fused, i.e., the message notification region and the black opaque region are of an immersive integrated design. This design reduces the sense of demarcation between the black opaque region and the message notification region, making it easier for the user to ignore the negative experience of the black opaque region when seeing the information of the message notification region. See fig. 7B for an example. The difference in fig. 7B compared to fig. 6B is that in fig. 7B, the message notification area is of immersive integrated design with the black opaque area. The user, after seeing the prompt, ignores the negative experience of the black opaque region, and instead feels interesting and practical to display the notification message in combination with the black opaque region. In addition to the differences described above, the relevant description of fig. 7A may refer to the corresponding description of fig. 6A, and the relevant description of fig. 7B may refer to the corresponding description of fig. 6B, which is not repeated herein.

Referring to fig. 8A, specific notification messages may be displayed in a message notification area of a display screen, and the notification messages may be displayed in text form, for example. In addition, a control of man-machine interaction can be displayed in the message notification area. The electronic equipment can receive specific operation instructions of the user through the man-machine interaction control. For ease of understanding, reference may be made to fig. 8B for exemplary purposes.

In fig. 8B, it is assumed that the hardware device provided in the black opaque region including the camera hole therein includes the camera. Then, in the case where the camera is about to be called up or has been called up, information related to the camera may be displayed around the black opaque region, that is, a message notification region. And controls for camera-related human-machine interaction may be provided in the message notification area. For example, taking a scenario in which the camera is about to be invoked as an example in fig. 8B, a prompt message of "ready to start the camera" is displayed in the message notification area. And also displays "disable" and "enable" human-machine interaction controls in the message notification area. The "disable" control is used to disable the camera. The "allow" control is used to allow the camera to be activated. In the user interface shown in the display screen of fig. 8B, the electronic device may not activate the camera in response to a user touch (or click) operation of the "disable" control. Alternatively, the electronic device may activate the camera in response to a user touch (or click) operation of the "allow" control.

In other embodiments, for example, the message notification area may also display application notification messages, such as messages from WeChat friends, and then the control may be "reply" or "close" for quick reply to the message or close the message, among other operations.

The message prompt and man-machine interaction mode provided by the embodiment of the application can promote the participation of the user, and the user has more choices, so that unexpected surprise and different experiences are brought to the user, and negative experiences brought by black opaque areas are ignored.

Fig. 8A and 8B described above illustrate an implementation in which the message notification area and the black opaque area are of an immersive integrated design. In another possible implementation, the design of the message notification area and the black opaque area in fig. 8A and 8B described above may also be a design in which there is a distinct boundary between the two areas as shown in fig. 6A. The embodiments of the present application are not limited in this regard.

Referring to fig. 9A, specific notification messages may be displayed in a message notification area of the display screen, and the notification messages may be displayed in text form, for example. In addition, man-machine interaction elements matched with the notification message can be displayed in the display screen. For example, the notification message may be used to prompt the user to operate on the human-machine interaction element. The electronic equipment can receive the specific operation instruction of the user through the man-machine interaction element. For ease of understanding, reference may be made to fig. 9B for exemplary purposes.

In fig. 9B, it is assumed that the hardware device provided in the black opaque region including the camera hole therein includes the camera. Then, in the case where the camera is about to be called up or has been called up, information related to the camera may be displayed around the black opaque region, that is, a message notification region. And human-computer interaction elements matched with the information can be displayed in the display screen. For example, taking the scenario of waiting to start a video conference or having entered a video conference as an example in fig. 9B, the message notification area shows the prompt information of "replace virtual avatar" and "one-touch-up meta-cosmic conference". And the selectable avatar may be displayed at any location in the display screen, such as a location below the message notification area. The user can touch (or click) a certain head portrait to replace the head portrait of the user. For example, the electronic device may directly replace the user's avatar with the certain avatar based on a touch (or click) operation on the certain avatar after receiving the operation. Alternatively, the electronic device may pop up a prompt box after receiving a touch (or click) operation on the certain avatar, for example. The prompt box prompts the user whether to replace the head portrait, and after receiving the touch (or click) operation of the user on the control for indicating to replace the head portrait in the prompt box, the head portrait of the user is directly replaced by the head portrait based on the operation. For example only, embodiments of the present application do not limit specific operations after the electronic device receives a touch (or click) operation on the certain avatar.

In another possible implementation, in the user interface shown in fig. 9B, a human-machine interaction element hyperlinked to the head portrait database may also be displayed. Illustratively, the man-machine interaction element of the hyperlink to the head portrait database may be a text hyperlink or an icon hyperlink, etc., which is not limited by the embodiments of the present application. For ease of understanding, reference may be made to fig. 9C for exemplary purposes. Fig. 9C exemplarily illustrates that the man-machine interaction element of the hyperlink to the avatar database is a text hyperlink, and the text content of the hyperlink is "more avatar …". The electronic device receiving a touch (or click) operation on the hyperlink of the "more head portrait …" may jump the user interface into the head portrait database or pop up a window displaying more head portraits so that the user may select among more head portraits.

Fig. 9A and 9B described above are exemplified by the design in which there is a clear boundary between the message notification area and the black opaque area. In another possible implementation, the design of the message notification area and the black opaque area in fig. 9A and 9B described above may also be an immersive integrated design of the two areas as shown in fig. 7A. The embodiments of the present application are not limited in this regard.

In a specific implementation, the man-machine interaction element shown in fig. 9A is not limited to be an avatar. The human-machine interaction element may also be, for example, wallpaper (i.e., background) of a video or conference scene. The electronic device can receive an indication of changing the background picture or an indication of blurring the background picture by a user through the man-machine interaction element of the wallpaper, and display a background picture effect selected by the user based on the indication. Specific implementation may refer to the corresponding description of fig. 9B, which is not repeated herein.

The man-machine interaction element shown in fig. 9A may also be a decoration element (such as a sticker or an emoticon (Emoji) or the like) of the user avatar display frame. The electronic device may receive, via the human-machine interaction element of the decorative element, an indication that the user altered the decorative element, and display an effect of the decorative element selected by the user based on the indication. Specific implementation may refer to the corresponding description of fig. 9B, which is not repeated herein.

The man-machine interaction element shown in fig. 9A may also be a sound effect (e.g. slow, fast, variable frequency, etc. effects). The electronic device may receive, via the human-machine interaction element of the sound effect, an indication that a user alters the effect of the sound played by the electronic device, and display the sound effect selected by the user based on the indication. Specific implementation may refer to the corresponding description of fig. 9B, which is not repeated herein.

The man-machine interaction elements shown in fig. 9A described above are merely examples, and do not limit the embodiments of the present application.

It should be understood that, in the present application, the content of the message displayed in the message notification area, the man-machine interaction element in the above embodiment, etc. may be configured in advance; the terminal may also be adaptively displayed according to the current scene of the user using the terminal or the state of the terminal, for example, the camera may be called to deal with, but the message notification area may display different message content and/or different man-machine interaction elements according to the meeting history or other history information of the friend.

Referring to fig. 10A, fig. 10A differs from fig. 9A described above in that in fig. 10A, the black opaque region is a circular region, and the message notification region is a region surrounded by an arc line and a display screen boundary closest to the black opaque region. As shown in fig. 10A, this design may optimize the aesthetics of the user interface, provide a more pleasing interface for the user, and enhance the user experience. For ease of understanding, reference may be made to fig. 10B for exemplary purposes. The difference in fig. 10B compared to fig. 9B is that in fig. 10B, the black opaque region is a circular region in which a camera hole is provided. In addition, the message notification area is an area surrounded by an arc line and the boundary of the display screen closest to the camera hole. In addition to the differences described above, the relevant description of fig. 10A may refer to the corresponding description of fig. 9A, and the relevant description of fig. 10B may refer to the corresponding description of fig. 9B, which is not repeated herein.

Referring to fig. 11A, in fig. 11A, a black opaque region is taken as a circular region, and the message notification region is taken as an example of a region surrounded by an arc line and a display screen boundary closest to the black opaque region. The message notification area includes specific contents of the notification message. The notification message includes hyperlink text. The user can be text-linked to other more extended application functions through the hyperlink. Therefore, the limitation of the application function is widened for the user, the electronic equipment can call another function more conveniently or quickly to be displayed for the user, the user experience is improved, and the negative experience brought by the black opaque area can be ignored by the user. For ease of understanding, reference may be made to fig. 11B for exemplary purposes.

In fig. 11B, it is assumed that the hardware device provided in the black opaque region includes a camera, and the black opaque region includes a camera hole therein. Then, in the case where the camera is about to be called up or has been called up, information related to the camera may be displayed around the black opaque region, that is, a message notification region. For example, taking a scene that the camera is about to be invoked as an example in fig. 11B, a prompt message of "meeting is about to start, and one-touch on beauty" is displayed in the message notification area. And, the "start" in the text of the "meeting is about to start, the one-key start beauty" is the hyperlink text. For example, the electronic device may receive a touch (or click) operation by the user that the hyperlink text is "on", and in response to the operation, may directly invoke and turn on the beauty function. Alternatively, the electronic device may pop up a setup window, for example, in response to the operation. The setting window may be used to set and save various effects of beauty (e.g., whitening, thinning face, brightening eyes or polishing skin, etc.). After the setting window is used for setting and storing operations, the electronic equipment receives touch (or clicking) operation of a user on a confirmation control for opening the beauty through the setting window, and then invokes and opens the beauty function. By way of example only, embodiments of the present application are not limited to a particular implementation of a response operation after an electronic device receives a touch (or click) operation of a user to "open" the hyperlink text. In the embodiment of the application, the notification message appears around the hardware which is strongly related to the current notification content, and can provide extended application functions, so that different experiences are brought to the user beyond the expectations of the user.

Fig. 11B is merely an example, and in a specific implementation, the extended application function that can be hyperlinked in the message notification area is not limited to the beauty function described above. For example, a sound optimization function is also possible. Illustratively, if the hardware device disposed in the black opaque region is a headset. In the case where the handset is about to be called up or has been called up, a prompt message of "one-to-optimize sound you hear" may be displayed in the message notification area. Then, the "optimization" may be the hyperlink text, or the "optimize you hear sound" is the hyperlink text. The electronic device may then invoke a sound optimization function to optimize sound output from the earpiece in response to a user touch (or click) operation on the hyperlinked text. The sound optimization may be, for example, filtering noise or providing the user with various optional sound effects (e.g., 3D liyin, subwoofer, or spatial sound effects, etc.), to which embodiments of the present application are not limited.

The above-mentioned extended application function that can be hyperlinked in the message notification area may be, for example, a function of optimizing a display background or optimizing a display area (for example, a display area of the message notification area or the entire display screen, etc.), and all the setting behaviors related to the camera may be generally displayed in the form of a graphical representation. Specific implementation may refer to the foregoing description of fig. 11B, which is not repeated herein.

See fig. 12A. Fig. 12A differs from fig. 11A in the manner of man-machine interaction. In contrast to FIG. 11A, which links to other more extended application functions through hyperlinked text, FIG. 12A does not design hyperlinked text, but rather receives user instructions through additional human-machine interaction controls to extend more application functions.

In one possible implementation, other application functions may be extended by clicking, pulling down, or dragging the human-machine interaction control with a cursor. In another possible implementation, other application functions may be extended by means of a gesture of the user touching, clicking, pulling down or dragging.

Fig. 12B, 12C, and 12D may be exemplarily referred to as operating the above-described human-computer interaction control through a cursor.

By way of example, fig. 12B can be seen. It is assumed that the hardware device provided in the black opaque region includes a camera, and the black opaque region includes a camera hole therein. Then, in the case where the camera is about to be called up or has been called up, information related to the camera may be displayed around the black opaque region, that is, a message notification region. For example, taking a scenario in which the camera is about to be invoked as an example in fig. 12B, a prompt message of "about to start a meeting, pull down to start beauty" is displayed in the message notification area, which indicates that the user can start the beauty function through a pull down operation. Also, the human-machine interaction control is a drop-down control, which may be, for example, a ring that passes through the message notification area. The drop-down control may be any other shape, and embodiments of the present application are not limited in this regard. The pull-down operation is not limited to the vertical pull-down operation, and any operation that tends to be downward may be the pull-down operation.

In a particular implementation, when the arrow-shaped cursor approaches the drop-down control, the cursor becomes the gesture shape pointed by the index finger, particularly with reference to FIG. 12B. For example, the electronic device may receive a drop-down operation of the drop-down control by the user through the gesture cursor, and may directly invoke and turn on the beauty function in response to the operation. Alternatively, the electronic device may pop up a setup window, for example, in response to the operation. The setting window may be used to set and save various effects of beauty (e.g., whitening, thinning face, brightening eyes or polishing skin, etc.). After the setting window is used for setting and storing operations, the electronic equipment receives touch (or clicking) operation of a user on a confirmation control for opening the beauty through the setting window, and then invokes and opens the beauty function. For example only, embodiments of the present application do not limit specific response operations of the electronic device to receiving a drop-down operation of the drop-down control by the user through the gesture cursor. In the embodiment of the application, the notification message appears around the hardware which is strongly related to the current notification content, and can provide extended application functions, so that different experiences are brought to the user beyond the expectations of the user.

By way of example, fig. 12C can be seen. Fig. 12C is a diagram of a human-computer interaction control changed to a drag control, compared to fig. 12B described above. In fig. 12C, taking a scenario in which the camera is about to be invoked as an example, a prompt message of "about to start a meeting and drag to start beauty" is displayed in the message notification area, which indicates that the user can start the beauty function through drag operation. The drag control may be a control composed of a plurality of points, or may be a control composed of three parallel line segments, for example, and the specific representation of the drag control is not limited in the embodiment of the present application. The drag operation may be drag in any direction, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

In a particular implementation, when the arrow-shaped cursor approaches the drag control, the cursor becomes a fist gesture shape, particularly with reference to fig. 12C. For example, the electronic device may receive a drag operation of the drag control by the user through the gesture cursor, and may directly invoke and turn on the beauty function in response to the operation. Alternatively, the electronic device may pop up a setup window, for example, in response to the operation. The setting window may be used to set and save various effects of beauty (e.g., whitening, thinning face, brightening eyes or polishing skin, etc.). After the setting window is used for setting and storing operations, the electronic equipment receives touch (or clicking) operation of a user on a confirmation control for opening the beauty through the setting window, and then invokes and opens the beauty function. For example only, the embodiment of the application does not limit a specific response operation of the electronic device to receiving a drag operation of the drag control by the user through the gesture cursor. In the embodiment of the application, the notification message appears around the hardware which is strongly related to the current notification content, and can provide extended application functions, so that different experiences are brought to the user beyond the expectations of the user.

By way of example, fig. 12D can be seen. Fig. 12D is similar to fig. 12C described above, except that the hand gesture is changed to a palm gesture. Specifically, when the arrow-shaped cursor approaches the drag control, the cursor becomes the gesture shape of the palm. The dragging operation can be also realized through the palm-shaped cursor, and specific implementation can refer to the description of fig. 12C, which is not repeated here.

In a possible embodiment, the display screen of the electronic device may further include a visual effect presentation area. The visual effect presentation area refers to an area including the above-described black opaque area and message notification area. The electronic equipment can present colorful visual effects for the user in the visual effect presentation area, and the visual experience of the user is increased. Illustratively, the visual effect includes a combined presentation of one or more of color, brightness, transparency, dynamic effect, fade effect, shading, imaging, lighting, softened edges, 3D effect, or three-dimensional rotation. For ease of understanding, reference may be made exemplarily to fig. 13A to 13K.

Fig. 13A to 13K illustrate examples of the above-described black opaque region as a camera hole. For example, when the camera is invoked or is about to be invoked, a change in the light may occur in the camera aperture, e.g., the light in the camera aperture is normally on, etc. Taking this as an example, referring to the visual effect presentation area of fig. 13A, it can be seen that a visual effect is presented in which the surrounding area is illuminated with the camera hole as a light source.

Referring to the visual effect presentation area of fig. 13B, it can be seen that the visual effect of lighting and color gradation around the message notification area is presented.

Referring to the visual effect presentation area of fig. 13C, it can be seen that the visual effect of the bright side where the color gradation appears below the message notification area is presented.

Referring to the visual effect presentation area of fig. 13D, it can be seen that the visual effect that the message notification area lights up and a color gradation occurs is presented.

Referring to the visual effect presentation area of fig. 13E, it can be seen that the visual effect of the lunar diet is presented, or the visual effect of the light edge with gradual color is presented in the message notification area.

Referring to the visual effect presentation area of fig. 13F, it can be seen that the visual effect of water waves spreading around the message notification area is presented.

Referring to the visual effect presentation area of fig. 13G, it can be seen that the visual effect of solar light is presented.

Referring to the visual effect presentation area of fig. 13H, it can be seen that the visual effect of water waves spreading around the message notification area is presented. However, the water wave of fig. 13H is different from the water wave of fig. 13F, and the water wave of fig. 13H is represented in the form of dots like a dotted line.

Referring to the visual effect presentation area of fig. 13I, it can be seen that the visual effect of running the planet in the universe is presented.

Referring to the visual effect presentation area of fig. 13J, it can be seen that the visual effect of the lunar diet is presented.

Referring to the visual effect presentation area of fig. 13K, it can be seen that a visual effect is presented in which a gradual glow appears around the message notification area.

In one possible implementation, the visual effects presented in fig. 13A-13K above may all be dynamic visual effects. For example, an effect of the line being inattentive around the message notification area may be presented as shown in fig. 13G. For example, the planet in fig. 13I may be an effect on motion. The embodiment of the application does not limit the specific dynamic visual effect.

In one possible implementation, the visual effects presented in fig. 13A through 13K described above may all be 3D visual effects. For example, the planet in fig. 13I may be a planet of a 3D visual effect, or the like. The embodiment of the application does not limit specific 3D visual effects.

It should be noted that the visual effects described above are merely examples, and do not limit the embodiments of the present application. Any visual effect may be presented in the visual effect presentation area described above, which is not limited by the embodiment of the present application.

In addition, it should be noted that, the visual effect presented in the visual effect presenting area may be implemented by using an existing method for designing and presenting a visual effect, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.
