In order to make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in combination with specific embodiments of the present invention and corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiment is only the present invention. A part of the embodiments will not be explained. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without making progressive labor belong to the protection scope of the present invention.

The technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

Example 1

FIG. 1 is a flowchart of the method of this embodiment, and FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a session operation interface of communication software used in this embodiment. The conversation operation interface includes a communication message display area located at the upper part and a communication message input area located below the communication message display area. When the emoticon icon next to "Communication Input Area" in the figure is clicked, many emoticons will be displayed in the area below the "Communication Input Area". In the embodiment of the present invention, similar to this The area is called the display element display area. An example of a specific session operation interface is shown in Figure 3. The user can select a display element in the display element display area and record it as the first display element. In this embodiment, an expression pattern is selected as the first display element, and is recorded as the first expression pattern. There are many ways to determine the first emoji, for example, the user can double-click to select or double-click to select, long-press to select, and so on. In this embodiment, a method of long pressing an emoticon to select the first emoticon is adopted. In FIG. 3, the first emoticon selected by the user is an expression of “laughing and crying”.

It is worth noting that the patterns in the display area of the display elements can be some commonly used patterns or interesting patterns, or patterns or pattern packages and expression packages imported from outside by software. Obviously, users can also choose emoji Select these patterns, and any subsequent operations for emoticons can also be used for these patterns. It can be seen that the patterns in the display area of the display elements can be considered as emoticons.

In fact, in addition to the pattern, the display area of the display elements can also have other display elements such as audio files and video files. On the other hand, there may also be a display element located outside the display element display area. For example, an emoji, portrait, object, etc. sent by the other party may also be used as a display element, and this display element is located outside the display element display area.

As can be seen from the above statement, in addition to the patterns in the display element display area, the patterns outside the display element display area can also be considered as emoticons.

As shown in FIG. 4, when the first emoticon has been determined, the user continues to select the second emoticon. The user presses and holds the first emoticon and drags it to the second emoticon, so that the second emoticon is determined. In FIG. 4, the second expression selected by the user is an emoji of “stool”. With the above steps, at least two emoticons are determined (step S1).

In the existing communication software technology, such as QQ or WeChat, the expression cannot be dragged. In order to make the expressions draggable, the selected expressions need to be separated from the original display element display area and operated in a separate view, which is above the view of the expression list. Dragging the expression is completed in the following events: Pressing the expression triggers the MoveStart event, the pressed expression in the view enters the dragging state (isMoving = YES), and sets the currently pressed table Love is the expression to be moved (moveTarget = icon1); when the finger moves on the screen, the Move event is continuously triggered. In this event, if isMoving == YES, the position of the coordinate (x, y) of the object pointed by moveTarget changes with the position of the finger; otherwise, no response is made; the MoveEnd event is triggered when the screen is manually removed from the screen. At this time, set isMoving to NO, and set the target moveTarget to null.

By setting the above events, you can make the expression draggable.

In addition to the method of long pressing the first expression in this embodiment, dragging it to the second expression to determine the second expression, there are many methods for determining the second expression, such as double-clicking the second expression, and holding down the first expression. Keep an expression and hold the second expression and so on. These methods all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

When the first expression is dragged onto the second expression, an editing interface can be triggered to appear, as shown in FIG. 4. This editing interface can respond to the user's input operation to edit the first and second emoticons to generate new emoticons. This newly generated emoji is called a third emoji.

The editing methods provided by the editing interface are: 1. Emoticon selection, single-finger click on the emoticon to select the emoticon; 2. Emoticon movement, click on the outer border of the emoticon to highlight the emoticon selected. At this time, single-finger Drag and drop to complete the movement; 3, emoji zoom, two-finger zoom emoji; 4, emoji stretch, two-finger stretch emoji; 5. Emoticon rotation, click the middle and outer border rotation button to rotate; 6. Emoticon flip, click the middle and outer border flip button to rotate; 7. Back, give up operation and return to the emoticon list.

It is worth noting that the editing interface can provide not only the above-mentioned editing methods, but also dynamic picture editing methods such as gradation and non-stop rotation around itself, and other methods easily conceived by those skilled in the art, and can also send edited expressions. Features. The methods possessing these editing methods or functions also fall into the protection scope of the present invention.

In this embodiment, the user places the second emoji directly above the first emoji to form a third emoji (step S2). As shown in FIG. 5, the third emoji is a "pooping smile on the head" Crying face". Obviously, the third expression picture is different from the first expression pattern or the second expression pattern.

In addition to the method of forming the third expression pattern by placing the second expression pattern directly above the first expression pattern in this embodiment, there may be many methods for forming the third expression pattern. For example: move, scale, rotate, flip, stretch the first emoji or the second emoji, and merge the second emoji or the first emoji to generate a third emoji; change the first emoji or the second emoji The pattern covers the second expression pattern or a portion of the first expression pattern to generate a third expression pattern.

The present invention may use only one of the above-mentioned various methods to generate the third emoticon, or it may comprehensively use several methods to generate the third table. For example, the first emoji can be moved to the left of the second emoji, and the second emoji can be flipped, and the obtained pattern can be sent as the third emoji, and the first emoji can be flipped and covered In the upper part of the two emoticons, the obtained pattern is used as a third emoji and sent. These methods also fall into the protection scope of the present invention.

After getting the third emoji, the user can send it or choose not to send it, but save it for later use. Such a method also falls within the protection scope of the present invention.

By using the method proposed in this embodiment, the user can create and use new display elements that are far more numerous than the original display elements with limited display elements. For example, assuming that the communication software provides N display elements, combining them one by one can generate N * (N-1) new display elements, the number of which is far more than the original N. If you consider different combinations, for example, left and right combinations and up and down combinations will generate different new display elements, this number can continue to expand several times. Therefore, this method greatly expands the display elements that can be used by users, and makes communication more interesting and expressive.

In addition, the present invention breaks the prejudice of the prior art. In the prior art, the display elements can only be selected from the existing display elements, and with the method of the present invention, new display elements other than the original display elements can also be used. Moreover, the method is easy to operate, and the user only needs to touch the screen to implement it.

Example 2

An editing window is used in Embodiment 1 to respond to a user's input operation to edit the first and second emoticons and obtain a third emoji. In this embodiment, an editing window is not used to perform editing in response to a user's input operation, but another method is used to determine a rule for obtaining the third expression pattern from the first expression pattern and the second expression pattern. For example, the third emoji is directly set as a pattern in which the first emoji is located on the left side of the second emoji and is closely attached.

As shown in FIG. 6A, first press and hold to select the first expression as a "night moon", and then drag to select the second expression as a "sleep". At this time, a third emoji is automatically generated, and the "night moon" of the first emoji is closely attached to the left side of "sleep" of the second emoji, forming an "emergency sleep" emoji, as shown in FIG. 6B. Send the "moon night sleep" emoji as the third emoji.

In addition to the third expression generation rule specified in this embodiment, many other expression generation rules can also be specified, for example: Rule 1: Place the first emoji on the left, right, top, or Below, a third emoticon is generated; Rule two: generate a dynamic pattern in which the first emoticon is gradually changed to the second emoticon, or generate a dynamic pattern in which the second emoticon is gradually changed to the first emoticon, Use the generated dynamic pattern as a third emoticon; Rule 3: The third emoticon is formed by moving the first or second emoticon along a predetermined trajectory and merging the second or first emoticon; Rule four: the third emoji is formed by moving, scaling, rotating, flipping or stretching the first emoji or the second emoji, and combining the second emoji or the first emoji; rule five : The third emoticon is formed by covering the second emoticon portion by the first emoticon or by covering the first emoticon portion by the second emoticon.

The third emoticon may be generated by using only one of the various rules described above, or a third emoticon may be generated by using a combination of several rules. For example, the third emoticon is the first emoticon that surrounds the second The emoticon turns, while the second emoticon flips up and down; for example, the third emoticon is that the first emoticon rotates continuously and covers the upper half of the second emoticon; One emoji is a "smiling face", the second emoji is a "crying face", and the third emoji is a pattern that gradually changes from "smiling" to "crying face", that is, a "first Smile after crying "emoji. These methods also fall into the protection scope of the present invention.

It is worth noting that although the selected first and second emoticons are static patterns in Embodiments 1 and 2, this method is not only applicable to static patterns, but also applies to dynamic patterns. The third pattern generated by the method is not limited to a static pattern, and may also be a dynamic pattern.

In this embodiment, the user may first specify a rule for obtaining the third emoticon from the first emoticon and the second emoticon, and then select the first emoticon and the second emoticon; or the first emoticon may be selected first. with The second emoji, and then specify the rule to obtain the third emoji by the first emoji and the second emoji; you can also first select the first emoji, and then specify the first emoji and the second emoji to obtain the third emoji. Three emoji rules, and then specify a second emoji. The method for the user to specify the rules for obtaining the third emoji from the first emoji and the second emoji may be that the user selects from a list of rules, which is provided by the communication software and includes the "first emoji Located on the left of the second emoji "," The first emoji is on the right of the second emoji "," Gradient change of the first emoji to the second emoji ", and so on; you can also use gestures to specify, For example, shaking left and right means merging left and right, shaking up and down means merging up and down, etc .; it can also be a special command language to specify merge rules. These methods all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

Example 3

In the first and second embodiments, an emoticon is used as an example to illustrate the method. In addition to patterns, this method can also be used for other display elements, such as audio and video files.

As shown in FIG. 7, the user first selects the first display element as a “smiley face” emoticon; then selects the second display element as an audio file, and the content of the audio file is “no problem” for the voice. The user combines the first display element “smiley face” and the second display element ’s “no problem” voice to generate a third display element. The third display element is an expression of a smiley face, and is accompanied by the voice “no problem”.

Similarly, the user can also combine the "crying face" emoji with "no problem" speech to generate a "no problem" crying face expression with voice, or combine the "crying face" emoji Merge with other audio files. The content of the audio file is not necessarily voice, but also music, animal sounds, etc. These methods all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

Example 4

In the embodiment 1-3, two display elements are used to generate a third display element, and the third display element is used as a target display element. Three or more display elements may also be used to generate the target display elements, and the generated method may also comprehensively use the methods listed in the above embodiments.

In this embodiment, the first display element is first selected as a "smile and cry" emoji; then the second display element is selected as a "stool" emoji. Then select the fourth display element, which is an audio file, and the content of the audio file is "no problem" of the voice. The user first merges the first display element "laughing and crying" and the second display element "stool" to generate an "emergency smiley crying face" emoticon, as shown in FIG. 8. Since it has been explained in the first embodiment how to combine two emoticons to generate a new emoji, the detailed description of the merging method will not be repeated here.

Different from the foregoing embodiment, the newly generated "smiling crying face on the head" is located in the communication message display area, not in the display element display area. Press and hold the newly generated "stool with a crying face on the head" emoji, exhale the pop-up box, and select the "Merge" button, as shown in Figure 9. At this time, you can drag the newly generated "stool with a smile on your head" emoji, and Drag it to the fourth display element audio file and merge it, as shown in Figure 10. After the merger, an emoji with a "smiling crying face on the head" accompanied by a voice "no problem" is generated. The expression pattern of the "smiling crying face above the head" accompanied by the voice "no problem" is used as a target display element, as shown in FIG. 11.

Obviously, the user can also use more display elements as the material for generating the display elements as needed. The generated method can also comprehensively use this embodiment and the various methods in the foregoing embodiments, and all fall within the protection scope of the present invention. Inside.
