Detailed Description

The terms "first," "second," and "third," etc. in the embodiments of the present application are used for distinguishing between different objects and not for defining a particular order. Furthermore, the words "exemplary" or "such as" are used to mean serving as an example, instance, or illustration. Any embodiment or design described herein as "exemplary" or "for example" should not be construed as preferred or advantageous over other embodiments or designs. Rather, the use of words such as "exemplary" or "such as" is intended to present related concepts in a concrete fashion.

In order to facilitate understanding of the embodiments of the present application, the following description first refers to the application context of the embodiments of the present application.

In electronic devices such as mobile phones and tablets, switching the desktop layout can change the number of standard icons which can be contained in each row and each column of each page of the desktop, so that the number of standard icons which can be contained in each page of the desktop is changed. Thus, to meet the user's needs, electronic devices often need to switch between different desktop layouts.

The standard icon refers to an icon of an application, and the icon may refer to an icon of an application, an icon of a desktop component corresponding to the application, an icon of a file, an icon of a folder, an icon of a web page, and the like, which are not particularly limited herein. In addition, in the embodiment of the application, the desktop may include a plurality of pages, and the pages may be switched to each other to display different or partially different icons.

Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a desktop of a mobile phone. Wherein the hand in fig. 1 is used to indicate the operation of the user. As shown in FIG. 1, the desktop includes a page 101, a page identifier 102, and a bottom display bar 103.

The page 101 is used to hold icons. The layout of page 101 corresponds to the desktop layout of the current desktop. For example, if the desktop layout of the current desktop is 4×5, as shown in fig. 1, the standard icons that can be accommodated in each row of the page 101 are 4, and the standard icons that can be accommodated in each column are 5.

The page identifier 102 is used to identify the location of the current page in each page in the current desktop. Illustratively, the page identifier may be a black circle and a plurality of circles arranged horizontally. The number of circles is used for identifying the number of pages of the current desktop, the order of the circles is used for identifying the page order of the current desktop, and the position of the black circle is used for identifying the position of the current page in each page of the current desktop. Taking fig. 1 as an example, the page identifier in the desktop includes three circles, which represents that the current desktop includes three pages. The black circle is located in the second circle from left to right, and represents that the current page is the second page from left to right of the current desktop, i.e. one page exists on the left side and the right side of the current page.

When the electronic device displays the desktop shown in fig. 1, the electronic device may enter a page on the left side of the current page in response to a right-sliding operation of the user on the current page. Correspondingly, the position of the black circle in the page identity 101 is changed to the first circle from left to right. The electronic device may also enter a page to the right of the current page in response to a left-sliding operation of the user on the current page, where the position of the black circle in the page identifier 101 is changed to a third circle from left to right.

It should be appreciated that the above description of page identification is merely exemplary. The page identifier may also be displayed in other forms in the embodiments of the present application. For example, the page logo includes a highlighted area, a plurality of circles arranged horizontally, and a house-like pentagon. The total number of circles and house-like pentagons represents the number of pages of the current desktop. The page corresponding to the house-shaped pentagon represents the main page of each page in the current desktop. The position of the highlight region represents the position of the current page in each page of the current desktop. The present application is not particularly limited thereto.

The bottom display column 103 is used to display application icons. The bottom display bar 103 is not included in the page 101 and has a more fixed display form. In other words, unless the user changes the bottom display field, the number of standard icons that the bottom display field 103 can accommodate may not change, or the icons displayed by the bottom display field 103 may not change, at the time of desktop layout switching.

In a page as shown in fig. 1, the electronic device may enter a desktop extension interface as shown in fig. 2 in response to a long press operation for the page space.

The desktop extension interface may include a preview interface of the current desktop, wallpaper controls, card controls, switching effect controls, desktop setting controls, and the like. The preview interface of the current desktop may display a preview of the current page and a partial preview of the adjacent page. The wallpaper control is used for entering a setting interface of the wallpaper. The card control is used to enter the setup interface of the desktop assembly. The switching effect control is used for entering an interface for setting the page switching effect. The desktop setting control is used to enter an interface for setting desktop parameters.

The electronic device may enter an interface for setting desktop parameters as shown in fig. 3 in response to a click operation of the user on the desktop control setting control.

The interface for setting the desktop parameters can include desktop layout control, locked layout control, and the like. The locked layout control is used for locking or unlocking the current desktop layout. The lock layout control is opened to indicate that the current desktop layout is locked, and the user cannot change the desktop layout and cannot move the icons of the pages in the current desktop. The locked layout control is closed, and the representative user can normally change the layout of the desktop and can normally move icons of pages in the current desktop. The desktop layout control is used to select a desktop layout.

The electronic device may enter a pop-up window setting the desktop layout as shown in fig. 4 in response to a user clicking operation on the desktop layout control.

As shown in FIG. 4, a pop-up window setting the desktop layout may include a cancel control and a plurality of desktop layout controls. Where desktop layout controls such as 4 x 4 controls, 4 x 5 controls, 5 x 6 controls, and the like. The electronic device can respond to clicking operation of a user on a certain desktop layout control, and switch the current desktop layout to the desktop layout corresponding to the desktop layout control.

For example, the electronic device may switch the current desktop layout to 5×6 according to a rule for switching desktop layouts preset by the android system in response to a click operation of the user on the 5×6 control.

Illustratively, the switched desktop may be as shown in fig. 5. As shown in fig. 5, the electronic device may add a blank column at the rightmost side of the current page and a blank row below the current page, thereby implementing switching from the 4×5 desktop layout to the 5×6 desktop layout.

After the switching is finished, if the user is not satisfied with the switched desktop layout, the electronic device can be controlled to switch the desktop layout from 5×6 to 4×5 according to the rule of switching the desktop layout preset by the android system through steps similar to those shown in fig. 1 to 4. That is, the desktop of the 4×5 desktop layout is newly generated from the desktop of the 5×6 desktop layout, and thus may not be the same as the desktop shown in fig. 1.

Based on the above description, it can be seen that the conventional desktop layout switching method can only implement the basic desktop layout switching function, and the user can only view the desktop layout after the desktop layout switching is completed, and cannot meet more personalized requirements of the user.

In order to solve the problem, the embodiment of the application provides a desktop layout switching method, which can provide a desktop restoration function for a user under a certain condition when the user changes the current desktop and switches to the desktop layout used before, so that the desktop is more suitable for the use habit of the user.

In other words, the user may perform operations of adding pages, deleting pages, adding icons, deleting icons, moving icons, and the like in the initial desktop, so as to obtain the current desktop.

Desktop data is used to indicate page distribution and icon distribution in the desktop. The page distribution refers to the arrangement of each page in the desktop, and the icon distribution refers to the arrangement of each icon in each page.

For example, the desktop data may include page data and icon data. The page data is used for indicating page distribution in the desktop, and the icon data is used for indicating icon distribution in the desktop. In some possible designs, both page data and icon data may be recorded and stored by way of tables. Wherein, the table for recording page data may be referred to as a table top layout screen table, and the table for recording icon data may be referred to as a table top layout arrangement table.

Desktop data of the initial desktop can be generated when the electronic device is switched to the desktop layout of the current desktop and stored in a preset address. Thus, the electronic device can judge whether the desktop data of the initial desktop exist according to whether the preset address stores the data. If the preset address stores data, judging that the desktop data of the initial desktop exist, otherwise, judging that the desktop data of the initial desktop do not exist.

The following describes the case where desktop data of the initial desktop exists.

S802a, judging whether the desktop data of the current desktop are the same as the desktop data of the initial desktop. If so, S803a is performed. If not, S802b is performed.

The desktop data of the current desktop is the same as the desktop data of the initial desktop, and the operations of adding pages, deleting pages, adding icons, deleting icons, moving icons and the like are described that the user does not perform in the initial desktop. Otherwise, it is explained that the user may perform the above operation.

The following describes a case where the desktop data of the current desktop is the same as the desktop data of the initial desktop.

S803a, judging whether desktop data of the first desktop exist or not. If so, S804a is performed. If not, S802b is performed.

The first desktop is the desktop when the electronic device is in the first desktop layout before switching to the current desktop. Still taking the desktop shown in fig. 1 as the current desktop, the first desktop layout is exemplified by 5×6. Before the electronic device switches to the desktop shown in fig. 1, the desktop when the desktop layout is 5×6 is the first desktop. In the embodiment of the application, the electronic device may store desktop data corresponding to the desktop in advance when the user controls the electronic device to be in different desktop layouts. Or, the electronic device may determine whether the desktop data of the current desktop is the same as the desktop data of the initial desktop when the desktop layout is switched, and if not, backup the desktop data of the current desktop, and delete the desktop data of the initial desktop. Thus, desktop data under different desktop layouts can be stored in the electronic device so as to be acquired when needed.

As an example, the electronic device may determine whether the desktop data of the first desktop is present by using a method similar to that for determining whether the desktop data of the initial desktop is present, which is not described herein.

The presence of desktop data for the first desktop is described below.

Desktop data of the first desktop exists, which indicates that the user controls the electronic device to be in the first desktop layout before, and the first desktop may keep the use preference or the use habit of the user. Therefore, the first desktop layout is loaded according to the desktop data of the first desktop, so that the desktop can be more fit with the use habit of the user, and the use experience of the user can be improved.

S804a, displaying a preview interface of the first desktop according to the desktop data of the first desktop.

In the embodiment of the application, the electronic device may load the preview interface of the first desktop in the display screen through a built-in LoaderTask function. The LoaderTask function is a function used in the electronic device to load a corresponding desktop or interface in the display screen according to desktop data.

Fig. 9 is a schematic diagram of a preview interface of a first desktop according to an embodiment of the present application. The user may display a preview interface of the first desktop as shown in fig. 9 in the display screen by clicking on the 5 x 6 control in fig. 7 through S801a-S804 a.

It should be understood that fig. 9 is merely illustrative, and the icon distribution and the page distribution of the first desktop may not be the distributions shown in fig. 9, which are not specifically limited herein.

The following describes a case where the desktop data of the initial desktop does not exist, or the desktop data of the current desktop is different from the desktop data of the initial desktop, or the desktop data of the first desktop does not exist. As is clear from the above description, S802b is performed in each of these three cases.

S802b, generating desktop data of the second desktop according to preset rules.

If the desktop data of the initial desktop does not exist, it cannot be determined whether the desktop data of the current desktop is changed compared with the desktop data of the initial desktop. If a change, such as adding an icon or page, is made, the previously backed up first desktop cannot display the change, such as adding an icon or page. Therefore, in this case, the embodiment of the application generates the desktop data of the second desktop according to the preset rules such as the desktop layout switching logic of the android system based on the desktop data of the current desktop, so as to ensure that the electronic device can correctly display all icons and pages, thereby improving the use experience of the user.

The desktop data of the current desktop are the same as the desktop data of the initial desktop, and will not be described again.

If the desktop data of the first desktop does not exist, a preview interface of the first desktop cannot be displayed. Therefore, based on the desktop data of the current desktop, the embodiment of the application generates the desktop data of the second desktop according to the preset rules such as the desktop layout switching logic of the android system, so as to ensure that the electronic equipment can be correctly switched to the first desktop layout.

As described above, the desktop layout of the second desktop is the first desktop layout. The preset rules may be android system native desktop layout switching logic.

Taking a standard icon as an example, the space occupied by the standard icon is 1. In some possible designs, when the desktop layout increases the number of rows and columns, the preset rule may be that the icon distribution and the page distribution are unchanged, the space corresponding to the number of columns is increased at the end of each row, and the space corresponding to the number of rows is increased at the end of each column. Taking the desktop shown in fig. 1 as an example of a current desktop, when the 4×5 desktop layout is switched to the 5×6 desktop layout according to a preset rule, 1 space may be added at the end of each row, and one space may be added at the end of each column. I.e., the desktop shown in fig. 1 is switched to the desktop shown in fig. 5.

In other possible designs, the preset rule may be to sequentially arrange the icons in the desktop before switching in the desktop layout after switching. Therefore, the desktop after the desktop layout is switched is tidy, and the use experience of a user is improved.

In this embodiment of the present invention, when obtaining desktop data of an initial desktop fails, after the electronic device generates desktop data of a second desktop according to a preset rule, the desktop data of the second desktop may be stored as a backup. It should be appreciated that the desktop data of the second desktop may be, after the switching is completed, the desktop data of the initial desktop at the next desktop layout switching. Specifically, after the desktop layout switching is completed, the current desktop is changed into the second desktop, so that the desktop data of the second desktop is the desktop data of the initial desktop when the desktop layout switching is performed again.

When the desktop data of the current desktop is different from the desktop data of the initial desktop or when the acquisition of the desktop data of the first desktop fails, after generating the desktop data of the second desktop according to a preset rule, the electronic device may store the desktop data of the current desktop and the desktop data of the second desktop, and delete the desktop data of the initial desktop. As described above, the desktop data of the current desktop may be used as the desktop data of the initial desktop at the next desktop layout switching, and the desktop data of the current desktop may be used as the backup desktop data at the next switching to the current desktop, for restoring the icon distribution and the page distribution of the current desktop.

The process of generating desktop data for the second desktop will be briefly described herein. In this embodiment of the present application, the layout networks CellX and CellY may be generated according to a desktop layout index (may be referred to as index, and may be pre-built in the electronic device) of the second desktop, where CellX and CellY represent each grid in the layout network. Then, the electronic device can generate a desktop layout list and a desktop layout screen list according to CellX and CellY, and input the information such as the identification, the position and the like of each icon. Thus, the desktop data of the second desktop can be obtained.

S803b, displaying a preview interface of the second desktop according to desktop data of the second desktop.

In the embodiment of the application, the electronic device may load the preview interface of the second desktop in the display screen through a built-in LoaderTask function.

For example, when the preview interface of the current desktop is shown in fig. 7, the preview interface of the second desktop may be shown in fig. 10, that is, the icon distribution and the page distribution in fig. 7 are unchanged, the space of the corresponding column number is increased at the end of each row, and the space of the corresponding row number is increased at the end of each row.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 7, a confirmation control 704 and a cancel control 703 may also be included in the display of the electronic device.

When the preview interface of the current desktop as shown in fig. 7 is displayed in the display screen, the electronic device may display the current desktop as shown in fig. 1 in the display screen of the electronic device in response to an operation for the confirm control or cancel control.

When the preview interface of the first desktop as shown in fig. 9 is displayed in the display screen, the electronic device may display the first desktop as shown in fig. 11 in the display screen of the electronic device in response to an operation for the confirmation control.

When the preview interface of the first desktop as shown in fig. 9 is displayed in the display screen, the electronic device may display the current desktop as shown in fig. 1 in the display screen of the electronic device in response to an operation for the cancel control.

Similarly, when the preview interface of the second desktop shown in fig. 10 is displayed in the display screen, the electronic device may display the current desktop shown in fig. 1 in the display screen of the electronic device in response to an operation for canceling the control.

When the preview interface of the second desktop as shown in fig. 10 is displayed in the display screen, the electronic device may display the second desktop as shown in fig. 5 in the display screen of the electronic device in response to an operation for the confirmation control.

The operations for confirming the control or canceling the control above may be clicking, double clicking, long pressing, etc., which are not particularly limited in this application.

In addition, in some possible embodiments, returning, undoing, entering a multitasking, etc. may also produce an effect equivalent to an operation on a cancel control. Wherein the return operation or undo operation may be sliding left at the right edge of the display screen, the enter multitasking operation may be sliding up at the bottom of the display screen, etc. Illustratively, when the preview interface of the second desktop as shown in fig. 10 is displayed in the display screen, the electronic device may enter a multitasking operation, etc. in response to a return operation, a cancel operation, etc., display the current desktop as shown in fig. 1 in the display screen of the electronic device.

It should be noted that, the desktop data for generating the second desktop may include a vacancy. That is, gaps may be included between icons in the second desktop, resulting in an insufficiently clean distribution of icons, which may affect the user experience.

In order to solve the problem, after generating the desktop data of the second desktop according to the preset rule in S802b, the embodiment of the present application may first traverse the data indicating the icon distribution in the desktop data, so as to eliminate the gaps between the icons in the page. For example, when the desktop data includes a desktop layout arrangement table and a desktop layout screen table, the electronic device may traverse the desktop layout arrangement table to determine a vacancy in the desktop layout table. And then sequentially filling the icons in the page to the empty positions, and marking the empty positions as occupied positions so as to avoid overlapping with other icons. Finally, the electronic device may release the position before the icon moves marked as empty, releasing the position.

In the embodiment of the present application, the above-described processing procedure may be referred to as a first process. It should be appreciated that the desktop data of the second desktop has no gaps between icons in the new desktop data obtained after the first processing. Thus, the preview interface of the second desktop based on the new desktop data load may be as shown in FIG. 12, i.e., there is no room between icons. Therefore, the icons in the second desktop can be distributed more neatly, and the use experience of a user is improved.

In addition, after the electronic device performs the first processing on the desktop data of the second desktop, the processed desktop data of the second desktop may be stored, so as to be used as the desktop data of the initial desktop in the subsequent desktop layout switching.

The above describes a desktop layout switching method and an electronic device provided in the embodiments of the present application. Based on the above description, the method can provide the desktop restore function for the user when the user switches to the desktop layout used before, so that the desktop is more suitable for the use habit of the user. In addition, the desktop layout switching method can enable the user to visually see the display effect of each desktop layout when the desktop layout is switched, so that the use experience of the user is improved.
