With the wide application of mobile phones, the desktop of the mobile phone evolves a plurality of rich desktop elements from a traditional single application icon, and the mobile phone has other elements such as service cards, widgets, shortcuts, folders, large folders and the like, and gradually tends to intelligent layout. The diversified desktop elements make the desktop arrangement of the mobile phone more important. Functionally, the service card, widget and shortcut have the function of directly serving, so that the user can use the function operation level, and the file holder has the function of storing the application icons. In appearance, the imaged service cards and widgets have different sizes, so that the desktop is more attractive. However, the increase in desktop elements makes it more cumbersome for users to manually organize desktops. The desktop is more complex due to the fact that the plurality of service cards, widgets and shortcuts are arranged in a scattered manner on each page of the desktop, and the purpose of service direct cannot be achieved effectively. In order to enhance the experience of using the desktop by the user, the arrangement of the desktop is particularly important.

In some desktop arrangement schemes at present, a terminal device may first receive an icon gap dividing operation of a user in a desktop layout, and divide a desktop into regions according to the dividing operation. After the area is divided, the user selects to add interface elements according to the own requirements, and the interface elements are displayed in the divided area in a preset mode. However, the desktop arrangement scheme of the current terminal device has the following disadvantages:

1. Lack swift arrangement, more repeated operation: the desktop of the scheme has high freedom degree, but the desktop arrangement operation is complicated, and interface elements need to be manually added. And each page of desktop organizer may allow the user to perform many repetitive operations.

2. The finishing time is long: the technique is suitable for creating a new desktop layout with fewer interface elements, and if the current desktop elements are more, the sorting operation is not greatly different from the conventional dragging operation and is time-consuming.

3. New, common interface elements cannot be recommended: the interface elements are all determined by the user and cannot be recommended to the user to more suitable layout and interface elements.

Obviously, the current desktop arrangement scheme is complex in operation, low in desktop arrangement efficiency and poor in user experience. Therefore, how to improve the desktop arrangement efficiency and the experience of the user of the terminal device in the desktop arrangement process of the terminal device is a problem to be solved currently.

In order to solve the above problems, the present application proposes a desktop arranging method, which is applicable to a terminal device, and includes: the method comprises the steps of firstly obtaining information of all basic elements in a desktop and information of a first template of the desktop, and then obtaining and displaying a new layout of the desktop based on the information of all basic elements and the information of the first template. The desktop of the terminal equipment is tidied by the method, so that the tidying efficiency of the desktop can be effectively improved.

The desktop arranging method provided by the embodiment of the application can be applied to various terminal devices including, but not limited to, personal computers, server computers, handheld or laptop devices, mobile devices (such as mobile phones, tablet computers, PDAs, media players and the like), consumer electronic devices, vehicle-mounted computers, smart watches, televisions, other terminal devices with display screens and the like.

S502: and the processor of the mobile phone obtains and displays a new layout of the current desktop based on the information of all the basic elements and the information of the first template.

The processor of the mobile phone can obtain a new layout of the current desktop based on the information of all the basic elements of the current desktop and the information of the first template, and display the new layout of the current desktop through the display screen of the mobile phone.

In the embodiment of the application, the processor of the mobile phone can match all the basic elements to the at least one first area according to the information of all the basic elements and the information of the first template. The information of the base element may include any one or more of size information, type information, frequency of use information, downloaded frequency information, source information, or hotspot level information.

In some embodiments, the processor of the mobile phone may first match all the base elements to the at least one first region according to the hotspot levels of the base elements and the hotspot levels of the first regions in the first template, and generate a new desktop layout.

The hotspot level for how to determine the information of all base elements in the current desktop and the hotspot level of the first region may include, but is not limited to, the following embodiments:

In the embodiment of the present application, the information of the first area in the information of the first template may include a hotspot level of the first area.

In some embodiments, when the information of the first area in the information of the first template does not include the hotspot level of the first area, the processor of the mobile phone further needs to determine the hotspot level of each first area in the first template. For example, the processor of the mobile phone may set several desktop areas according to the usage situation of the area of the entire desktop, and the hot spot level of the first area closer to the center of the desktop may be set higher, or the hot spot level of the first area closer to the top of the desktop may be set higher than the hot spot level of the first area closer to the bottom of the desktop. The processor of the mobile phone can take the hot spot grade of the desktop area where each first area is located as the hot spot grade of the corresponding first area based on the desktop area where each first area is located in the first template.

In some embodiments, the hotspot level of the first area in the first template may be automatically generated for the system, may be a hotspot level in a historical template of the system selected by the user, or may be a user-defined hotspot level, where the manner of user-defining may be implemented by a method described in the following embodiment one, which is not described herein in detail.

The foregoing manner is merely an example, and the embodiments of the present application may also determine the hotspot level of each first area in the first template in other manners, which are not limited in this manner.

In the embodiment of the application, the information of the basic elements in the current desktop, which is acquired by the processor of the mobile phone from the data layer of the mobile phone, can contain the hot spot level of each basic element. The processor of the mobile phone can count all basic elements on the current desktop and acquire information of all basic elements from the data layer; and determining the corresponding hot spot grade according to the information of each basic element.

In one embodiment, the processor of the mobile phone may calculate, according to one or more of size information, type information, frequency information used, downloaded frequency information, and source information in the information of each base element, a hot spot coefficient of each base element by using a preset algorithm; further, according to the hot spot coefficients of all the basic elements, the hot spot levels of all the basic elements are determined.

The information of the first template may further include an area ratio of each first area, and the processor of the mobile phone may sort all the base elements in order from large to small according to the hotspot coefficients of all the base elements; dividing all the ordered basic elements according to the area occupation ratio of at least one first area of different hot spot grades to obtain at least one element set, wherein each element set comprises at least one basic element, the at least one element set corresponds to the at least one first area one by one, the occupation ratio of each element set is the same as the area occupation ratio of the corresponding first area, and the element set with the larger comprehensive hot spot coefficient corresponds to the first area with the higher hot spot grade; and finally, setting the basic elements in each element set as the hot spot grade of the corresponding first area.

In the above example, the area ratio of each first region may be a ratio of an area of each first region to a total area of all first regions in the first template, the ratio of each element set may be a ratio of a number of base elements in each element set to a number of all base elements in the current desktop, and the integrated hotspot coefficient of each element set may be an average or median of the hotspot coefficients of all base elements in each element set.

In the embodiment of the application, the importance of the basic elements displayed in the first area with higher hotspot grade to the user is higher.

In addition, the hot spot level may be represented by a specific value (may be referred to as a hot spot level value), where a smaller hot spot level value indicates a higher hot spot level (hot spot level), or where a larger hot spot level value indicates a higher hot spot level (hot spot level), which is not limited in this aspect of the present application, and may be flexibly set.

For example, the hot spot coefficient rank list for all base elements E in the current desktop is: e ₁、E₂、E₃……E_n, where E represents a base element, n represents a ranking of a corresponding base element, and a smaller value of n indicates that the higher the ranking of the base element, the higher the base element hotspot level (hotspot degree).

Assuming that the first template includes three first areas, the hot spot grade value of the first area 1 is 1 (the hot spot degree is highest), the hot spot grade value of the first area 2 is 2, and the hot spot grade value of the first area 3 is 3 (the hot spot degree is lowest); wherein the area of the first area 1 is 20% of the total area of the whole first template, the area of the first area 2 is 30% of the total area of the whole first template, and the area of the first area 3 is 50% of the total area of the whole first template.

Dividing n ranked basic elements into 3 parts, wherein the number of basic elements in the front part accounts for 20% of the total basic elements, and the hot spot grade values of the basic elements in the front part are all determined to be 1; the number of the basic elements in the middle part accounts for 30% of the total number of the basic elements, and the hot spot grade values of the basic elements in the middle part are all determined to be 2; the number of the base elements in the latter part accounts for 50% of the total number of the base elements, and the hot spot rank values of the base elements in the latter part are all determined to be 3.

The hotspot grade value of each basic element can also be determined by the following formula:

Wherein, i is 1, 2, 3 … … n, when the ranking i of the basic elements is less than or equal to n x 20%, the corresponding hot spot grade value is 1; when the ranking of the basic elements is that i is larger than n by 20% and i is smaller than or equal to n by 50%, determining that the corresponding hot spot grade value is 2; and when the ranking i of the basic elements is greater than n by 50 percent and i is less than or equal to 100 percent, determining the corresponding hot spot grade value to be 3.

The foregoing manner is merely exemplary, and other manners may be adopted to calculate the hot spot level of the base element in the desktop according to the embodiments of the present application, for example, refer to the following second embodiment, which is not limited thereto.

For how to match the hotspot levels of all the base elements with the hotspot levels of at least one first region based on the hotspot levels of the information of the base elements and the hotspot levels of the first region, the following embodiments may be included, but are not limited to:

In the embodiment of the application, the information of the first area in the information of the first template can comprise the hot spot grade of the first area, and based on the hot spot grade of all basic elements in the current desktop and the hot spot grade of each first area in the first template, the processor of the mobile phone can match the hot spot grade of all basic elements with the hot spot grade of at least one first area, and the processor of the mobile phone can match each basic element to the first area with the same hot spot grade.

The processor of the mobile phone may match the size information of the base element matched to the first area with the size information of at least one second area in the first area based on the size information of all the base elements, and match each base element to the first area of the same size.

For example, the processor of the mobile phone may cycle through each base element in turn according to the hotspot level (level) of the base element and the hotspot level of the first area in the new first template, and assign each base element to the first area of the same hotspot level. For example, the basic elements of the current desktop include: base element 1 (APP 1), base element 2 (APP 2), base element 3 (APP 3), base element 4 (APP 4), base element 5 (APP 5), base element 6 (APP 6); wherein, the hot spot level of the basic element 1 (APP 1) and the basic element 4 (APP 4) is 1, the hot spot level of the basic element 2 (APP 2) and the basic element 5 (APP 5) is 2, and the hot spot level of the basic element 3 (APP 3) and the basic element 6 (APP 6) is 3. The new first template comprises 3 first areas, wherein the hot spot grade corresponding to the first area 1 is 1, the hot spot grade corresponding to the first area 2 is 2, and the hot spot grade corresponding to the first area 3 is 3. Then base element 1 and base element 4 may be matched into first region 1, base element 2 and base element 5 into first region 2, and base element 3 and base element 6 into first region 3.

Since each first area is divided into one or more second areas again, when the basic elements with the same hot spot level are matched into the corresponding first areas, it is further required to determine which second area in the first areas the basic element is placed in, so for each first area, the size of at least one basic element in the first area and the size of the at least one second area in the first area can be matched, the at least one basic element is matched into one second area with the same size, for example, the processor of the mobile phone can determine the size of each basic element according to the data information of each basic element, and the basic element is matched into the second area with the same size; each of the second regions is for displaying a base element. Illustratively, for the first area 1, the first area 1 includes a second area 1 and a second area 2, and the base elements of the first area 1 include a base element 1 and a base element 4 with the same hot spot level; the processor of the mobile phone can display the base element 1 in the second area 2 if the size of the base element 1 is determined to be the same as the size of the second area 2 according to the size information of the base element 1 and the base element 4 and the size information of the second area 1 and the second area 2, and can display the base element 4 in the second area 1 if the size of the base element 1 is determined to be the same as the size of the second area 2.

In some embodiments, when there is a second region that does not match a base element, a new base element may be generated for the second region that does not match a base element.

In some embodiments, when there is a base element that does not match the second area, the base element that does not match the second area may be spliced, and the spliced base element may be matched into the second area with the same size; or the base elements that do not match to the second region may be displayed in a stacked form with the base elements that have been matched to the second region in the same size.

In some embodiments, when there is a first base element that does not match a second region in a first region of the same hotspot level, the first base element may be matched to a second region in a first region of other hotspot levels, where the first region of other hotspot levels may be a first region of hotspot levels adjacent to the hotspot level of the first region to which the first base element is matched; or a first region of the same hotspot level as the first base element may be merged with an adjacent first region. The adjacent first area may be a first area in the first template, which is adjacent to the first area matched with the first basic element, and the hot spot level of the adjacent first area may be adjacent to or not adjacent to the hot spot level of the first area matched with the first basic element.

For example, the current desktop includes a base element 1, a base element 2, a base element 3, and a base element 4. Assuming that the basic element 1, the basic element 2 and the basic element 3 are matched into a first area 1 with the same hot spot level by referring to the hot spot level, wherein the first area 1 comprises a second area 1, a second area 2 and a second area 3;

If the base element 1 is matched to the second region 1 of the same size, the base element 2 is matched to the second region 3 of the same size, however, there is no base element 3 matched to the second region of the same size, and no base element is placed in the second region 2 of the first region 1, depending on the size of the base element and the size of the second region.

For base element 3 that did not match successfully: when any one or more of the foundation elements 1 or 2 and the foundation element 3 are the same in size, the foundation element 3 may be stacked under any one of the foundation elements 1 or 2 or placed into other first areas; or the first region 1 is combined with the adjacent first region, so that the base element can be placed in the first region 1 and the adjacent first region at the same time.

For the second region 2 where the mismatch was successful: a new base element may be automatically generated for the second area 2, which is a base element of a user-commonly used application or card, etc., or of a high hotspot level.

In some embodiments, when there are locations in the first template that are not used to display the base element, the locations in the first template that are not used to display the base element may fill the pattern.

With reference to the layout arrangement mode, the processor of the mobile phone can perform layout adjustment on all the first areas in the first template, and finally a new layout of the current desktop can be obtained and displayed.

Illustratively, an algorithm for layout adjustment is also provided; input (Input) as shown in table 1 below: a list (BTL) of base templates (corresponding to the second region) and a list (BEL) of base elements; output (Output:) a list of MTEL after the base template is matched with the base element. The definition of the basic templates and the basic elements is described in detail in the second embodiment. And respectively determining the display position and form of the basic element through matching the basic template and the basic element.

The algorithm is executed as follows:

first, a Matched Template Element List (MTEL) is initialized, and the list (MTEL) is used for storing matched basic templates and basic elements;

Then, each element of the basic elements in the BEL is traversed, and each element is matched with all templates in the BTL one by one.

The matching method can be as follows: judging whether the size of the basic element (element) is the same as the size of the basic template (template), and if so, marking the basic element (element) and the basic template (template) as matched.

For the base template (template) in the BTL that has been matched to a base element, it is no longer used to match the next base element (element).

For example, the BEL includes the base element 1, the base element 2, and the base element 3, and the BTL includes the base template 1, the base template 2, the base template 3, and the base template 4. The basic element 1 is compared with the basic templates 1,2, 3 and 4 in the BTL in size, and if the basic element 1 and the basic template 3 are the same in size, the basic element 1 and the basic template 3 are marked as matched and stored in MTEL. Then, the base element 2 is compared with the base templates 1,2, and 4 in the BTL (here, the base element 2 is no longer compared with the base template 3), and if the base element 2 is the same as the base template 2 in size, the base element 2 and the base template 2 are marked as matched and stored in MTEL. Next, the base element 3 is compared with the base templates 1 and 4 in the BTL in terms of size (here, the base element 3 is no longer compared with the base templates 2 and 3), and if the base element 3 is the same as the base template 1 in terms of size, the base element 3 and the base template 1 are marked as matched and stored in MTEL.

The procedure of the above-described processing corresponds to lines 1 to 10 of the algorithm in table 1.

However, after the above processing, there may be an unmatched base element (element) in the BEL and an unmatched base template (template) in the BTL. For unmatched base elements (elements) in the BEL and unmatched base templates (templates) in the BTL, matching can be achieved by:

For unmatched base elements (elements) in the BEL: the unmatched base elements may be combined with the matched base elements of the same size, or the unmatched base elements may be combined.

For example, if the unmatched base element in the BEL is a service card, then the service card may be combined and presented in a stack with service cards of the same size; if there are two unmatched base elements (elements) of size 1*1 in the BEL and one unmatched base template (template) of size 2*1 in the BTL, then the two base elements (elements) of size 1*1 can be combined (i.e., stitched) to a size 2*1 and matched into the unmatched base template (template) of size 2*1.

For unmatched templates (templates) in BTL: and traversing unmatched templates in the BTL, and generating new basic elements according to the size of each basic template, wherein the new basic elements can be service cards, shortcuts and the like commonly used by users.

Finally, after each successful match of the base template with the base element, a pair of matched base template and base element is added to the Matched Template Element List (MTEL), and MTEL is added as the final output of the algorithm.

In the output MTEL, the location information of the base template and the presentation form of the corresponding matched base element are included, so that according to the output MTEL, the unique layout of the base element on the mobile phone desktop can be determined.

Illustratively, fig. 6 shows an effect diagram of a template-based desktop arrangement, where fig. 6 (1) shows an original desktop, fig. 6 (2) shows a new first template, and fig. 6 (3) shows a new desktop.

The steps S501-S502 are to adjust the layout of the desktop of the current page based on the template to obtain a new layout; the desktops of other pages can be adjusted in a layout manner described in steps 501-502, and will not be described in detail herein.

In summary, the desktop arrangement method provided by the application can realize layout adjustment of the mobile phone desktop based on the template, and is convenient to operate, efficient in arrangement and high in layout rationality.

First embodiment:

In the first embodiment, taking a mobile phone as an example, a detailed description is given for how to customize a template of a desktop by a user, as shown in fig. 7A, the specific flow is as follows:

S701A: and the user operates an editing page of the entering template in the desktop editing state of the mobile phone.

The display screen of the mobile phone automatically displays a normal desktop of the current page after the mobile phone is started, the user performs a first operation on the normal desktop, that is, may enter a desktop editing state, for example, the first operation may be a kneading operation performed by two fingers of the user on the desktop of the mobile phone, and may refer to the desktop editing state shown in (2) in fig. 3B, the user may slide up and down to switch different desktop templates (i.e., the first template), after any desktop template is selected, the desktop of the current page may automatically perform layout with the desktop template, further, the user may enter an editing page of the desktop template, for example, may enter the editing page of the desktop template by pressing any place on the desktop for a long time or double clicking the desktop, in which the user may modify and adjust the desktop template, for example, may delete an existing layout template (i.e., the first area) or add a layout template in the editing page of the desktop template, and set a hot spot level of the new layout template, etc., which is not limited in the embodiment of the application.

S702A: and the user adjusts the layout template on the page edited by the template.

In the embodiment of the application, the user can adjust the number of the layout templates, such as deleting or adding the layout templates, on the page edited by the templates. For an existing layout template in an editing page of the template, if the user does not want to use the existing layout template, the user can use a finger to drag the existing layout template downwards in the editing page of the template, a 'delete' or 'trash can' button is automatically displayed below the page, and the user can drag the layout template to a 'delete' or 'trash can' button position, so that the existing layout template can be deleted or disappeared.

For example, if a user wants to add a layout template, the user may slide the template editing page leftwards or rightwards with a finger to present a new page in which a plurality of layout templates are displayed, and the user may drag any one or more of the layout templates into the editing page of the template.

In the embodiment of the application, on the editing page of the template, the user can set the hot spot level of each layout template. The mobile phone system generally divides a plurality of areas for the desktop, and presets corresponding hot spot grades for each area according to frequency information of operation of a user in each area, and when the user adjusts the layout template to the corresponding area, the system can automatically set the hot spot grade of the area where the layout template is located as the hot spot grade of the layout template.

In some embodiments, the user may use a finger to arbitrarily adjust the position and size of each layout template for the layout templates in the editing page of the template.

S703A: and storing the edited template on an editing page of the template by the user.

By way of example, the user may save the template edited by the user by clicking a "save" button in the editing page of the template, e.g., the edited template may be automatically saved in the data layer of the mobile phone, which is not limited in this regard by the present application.

Illustratively, fig. 7B shows an effect diagram of a user-customized desktop template, where (1) in fig. 7B shows an original desktop template, where the original desktop template includes a layout template 1 (level=1) and a layout template 2 (level=2), and the original desktop template may be adjusted by a user, for example, the user may adjust the size of the layout template in the template by dragging, setting a hotspot level, adding a template element, and the like on the basis of the original desktop template, and finally, a new customized desktop template may be obtained, and (2) in fig. 7B shows a new desktop template customized by the user, where the new desktop template includes a layout template 3 (level=1) and a layout template 4 (level=2).

The steps S701A-S703A take only one template as an example, and describe how the user edits and modifies the template to achieve the effect of the custom template, and other templates can refer to the steps S701A-S703A for editing the template. In addition, the user may not implement the requirement of the template of the custom desktop based on the existing template (or the original template), but may design a new template on the editing page of the template, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

According to the first embodiment, a user can set a custom template according to own requirements, and further desktop arrangement is achieved based on the custom template of the user, so that the desktop arrangement efficiency can be improved, and the personalized desktop arrangement function can be provided.

Specific embodiment II:

In the second embodiment, the terminal device takes a mobile phone as an example, and mainly introduces a relationship among a layout template (corresponding to a first area in the scheme of the present application) in a desktop template, a base template (corresponding to a second area in the scheme of the present application), and a base element of a desktop, and how to allocate the base element to the layout template in the desktop template (corresponding to the first template in the scheme of the present application) of the mobile phone, which is as follows:

the relationship among the layout template, the basic template and the basic element of the desktop in the desktop template:

Layout templates: for any template of the mobile phone desktop, a plurality of layout templates can be included, each layout template is composed of a plurality of small basic templates, each layout template can correspond to a hot spot grade, the hot spot grade of the layout template can represent the importance degree of the desktop position where the layout template is located, for example, the important program of the desktop position where the layout template with the hot spot grade level=1 is located is the largest, namely, the layout template with the hot spot grade level=3 and the hot spot grade level=4 has smaller importance degree, namely, the layout template with the hot spot grade level=3 and the hot spot grade level=4 can be understood as the desktop part with fewer operations of the user, and basic elements which are not frequently used by the user can be displayed in the layout templates with the level=3 and the level=4, or picture elements of the attractive desktop can be arranged.

Fig. 8A shows an example of three desktop layouts, wherein the desktop template (6*4) shown in (1) in fig. 8A includes 2 layout templates, and the 2 layout templates correspond to 2 hotspot levels, i.e., level=1 and level=2. The desktop template (6*4) shown in (2) in fig. 8A includes 4 layout templates, where the 4 layout templates correspond to 4 hotspot levels, that is, level=1, level=2, level=3, and level=4. The desktop template (6*4) shown in (3) in fig. 8A includes 3 layout templates, where the 3 layout templates correspond to 3 hotspot levels, that is, level=1, level=2, and level=3.

In addition, the size of the layout template and the hotspot level in the template can be built in the mobile phone, and can be adjusted and determined by a user according to own desktop using habits.

Base template and base element: the basic template of the layout template is equivalent to a basic unit for storing basic elements, wherein the basic elements are cards, icons, shortcut keys and the like on a desktop, and the basic elements comprise basic information of all elements except position information.

For a base template, the size and location information of the base template may be defined. For example, a2 x 2 service card element may be matched into a2 x 2 base template, and the location of the service card on the desktop may be determined since the location of the base template in the desktop template is determined.

In the embodiment of the application, as long as the size of the basic element is consistent with the size of the basic template, the basic element can be matched for use, namely, the basic element is matched and placed into the basic template with the same size for display. As shown in fig. 8B, in an embodiment of the present application, a matching relationship between a base template and a base element is defined, including but not limited to the following:

1*1 can be icons, shortcut keys and small folders to obtain storage units, namely the icons, the shortcut keys and the small folders can be placed in the 1*1 basic template;

1*2, 2 x 2, 2 x 4 may be the storage unit for the card/widget, i.e., the card/widget may be placed in the base template of 1*2, 2 x 2, 2 x 4;

2 x2 may also be the storage unit for the large folder, i.e. the large folder may also be placed in the base template of 2 x 2.

The matching of the basic elements in the desktop into the layout template (corresponding to the first region in the solution of the present application) in the desktop template can be achieved by, but is not limited to, the following ways:

In this embodiment, the base elements and the layout templates are allocated according to the hotspot level, i.e. the base elements are allocated to the layout templates of the same hotspot level. Wherein, the layout template is defined by the system or the user after the template is determined.

Fig. 9A shows a schematic flow chart of matching of desktop basic elements with layout templates, where the matching process may be performed by a processor of a mobile phone, as shown in fig. 9A, and the specific matching process is as follows:

Firstly, information of basic elements in the current desktop is obtained, wherein the information including the size, the type, the frequency of use, the frequency of downloading, the source and the like can be used for calculating the hot spot coefficients of the basic elements.

For example, the processor of the mobile phone obtains information of all basic elements in the current desktop from the data layer of the mobile phone, such as data of size, type, frequency of use, frequency of download, source, and the like.

Then, a hot spot coefficient is calculated from the information of each base element.

The hot spot coefficients of the desktop base elements can be calculated through the linear relation between the custom features and the hot spot coefficients, or can be calculated through fitting by adopting a learning algorithm such as regression.

Illustratively, the embodiment of the present application further defines the correlation between the desktop basic element features and the hot spot coefficients, which may include, but is not limited to, any one or more of the following:

(1) The larger the size of the base element, the larger its hotspot coefficient should be.

(2) The hot spot of the service card is larger than the hot spot coefficient of the shortcut, the hot spot coefficient of the shortcut is larger than the hot spot coefficient of the common icon, and the hot spot coefficient of the common icon is larger than the hot spot coefficient of other elements.

(3) The larger any one or more of the usage or download frequency of the base element, the larger its hotspot coefficient.

(4) The hot spot coefficient of the element actively added by the user is larger than that recommended by the system, and the hot spot coefficient of the element recommended by the system is larger than that of the element generated by the system by default.

And arranging all basic elements according to the order of the hot spot coefficients from large to small.

The larger the hotspot coefficient of the base element, the more important the base element is to the user, and should be arranged in the area commonly used by the user (i.e., the layout template with high hotspot level).

Further, according to the hot spot coefficients of all the basic elements, the hot spot grade of each basic element is determined.

For example, the desktop layout currently has three layout templates with hotspot level 1, 2, and 3. If the level=1 layout templates account for 50% of the desktop layouts, and the level=2 and level=3 layout templates account for 30% and 20% of the desktop layouts, respectively, the first 50% of the list of desktop elements ranked by hotspot coefficients is assigned a hotspot level level=1. Similarly, 50% -80% of desktop elements are assigned a hotspot level=2, and the rest of desktop elements are level=3.

And finally, storing the desktop basic elements into layout templates with the same hot spot level.

If the current layout cannot be stored, it may be sequentially determined whether the current layout can be stored in the level=n+1 layout templates until all layout templates are traversed. If the element is not arranged by a suitable layout template, the layout template may solve the problem by merging adjacently.
