1 is a schematic flowchart of an operation prompting method for a smart terminal according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The operation prompting method includes the following steps:

S1: When the smart terminal enters any operation interface, record the moment when the operation interface enters the operation interface is zero.

The smart terminal may be a smart terminal device having a display interface and an operation interface, such as a smart phone, a tablet computer, and a multimedia player. The operation interface means that the smart terminal displays an interface, which supports the user to perform operations, can be operated by a virtual button on the interface, or can input text content, or is a hardware component on the smart terminal. Take action. For example, when the video is played by the smart terminal, the display interface of the smart terminal is provided with a pause button, a close button, and a volume adjustment button to support the user to perform related operations, and the interface belongs to the operation interface. In addition, when operating on an operation interface, the operation result may be to enter the next interface. For example, when using a smart terminal to find a file, it is necessary to click the storage path step by step until the location where the file is stored is found. Go to the storage area of the next level and display the file information of each storage area. The implementation of this step requires a precondition that the smart terminal enters an operation interface, and the manner in which the smart terminal enters the operation interface is to record the display content of all the operation interfaces. When the intelligent terminal displays the operation interface, By calling the pre-stored display content, it can be known that the operation interface corresponding to the display content is displayed. Then, the time at which the smart terminal records the entry into the operation interface is zero, and the system time in the smart terminal can be invoked through the application interface of the operating system, and the time is recorded. The action of recording the zero point moment is only related to whether or not the operation interface is entered. Regardless of the interface of the previous interface, as long as the smart terminal enters an operation interface, the zero point time is recorded; if the smart terminal switches from an operation interface to In the next operation interface, the zero point is re-recorded based on the time of the last entered operation interface.

S2: The smart terminal starts timing from the zero time, and obtains a time duration.

This step starts from the zero point recorded in the step S1, and the result of the timing is the time duration. The method may be implemented by calling a timer unit in the smart terminal processor, and the timer unit triggers a timing task every time period, and increases the timing duration in the timing task. The implementation of the timing method can also be soft The mode is to call the timing application function in the operating system to time, and read the timing value of the function as the timing duration. The timing duration in this step is a parameter that constantly refreshes the change, and can be read in some cases, so that other steps can be judged. When the smart terminal enters another operation interface, the zero time is re-recorded, and the timing is restarted, and the time duration according to the new zero time is obtained.

S3: Determine whether the smart terminal is in the operation interface, and if no operation is received under a time duration greater than a time threshold preset in the smart terminal.

This step is a judging step. There are two preconditions. One is that the smart terminal is in the operation interface, that is, the smart terminal is always in the operation interface from the zero point, and does not enter other interfaces; the other is The time duration is greater than a time threshold preset in the smart terminal, that is, the time at which the smart terminal is in the operation interface must exceed the time threshold. It is judged whether the smart terminal receives any operation under the above two premise. The application scenario actually judged in this step is that after the smart terminal enters the operation interface for a period of time, the user has not performed the operation, and it can be inferred that the user does not know how to operate in the next step and has been hesitant, and needs to give an operation. prompt. Since the input action is generated when the user performs the operation, including the operation of the virtual button of the software or the operation of the hardware button, such input action can be detected through the software interface or the hardware circuit. The time threshold is preferably at least 2 minutes.

S4: The smart terminal is in the operation interface, and receives an invalid operation within a time duration less than or equal to the time threshold.

This step is a judging step parallel to the step S3. There are two premise judgments in this step. One is that the smart terminal is in the operation interface, and the other is within a time duration less than or equal to the time threshold. It is determined whether the smart terminal receives an invalid operation under the above two premise. The determination scenario of this step is complementary to the step S3. Considering that the timing duration is less than or equal to the time threshold, it is determined whether the content is an invalid operation of the smart terminal. The invalid operation is an operation that does not produce an operation result, for example, the user clicks on a position other than the virtual button area on the touch screen, or presses the volume adjustment button if the current operation interface does not support the volume adjustment. The scenario judged in this step refers to a situation in which the user does not perform an effective operation, and a prompt is required for the user to perform an effective operation.

S5: When any of the determining conditions of the step S3 or S4 is satisfied, play a multimedia information preset in the smart terminal for demonstrating the operation steps suggested by the current operation interface at least once.

The premise of the step is that the determining condition of the step S3 or S4 is satisfied, that is, when the smart terminal is in the operation interface, the time duration exceeding the time threshold does not receive any operation, or If an invalid operation is received within the time threshold, the step may be entered; if both steps S3 and S4 do not satisfy the judgment condition, Then the entire operation prompt method ends. The step execution content is to play multimedia information for demonstrating the operation steps suggested by the current operation interface, and the multimedia information may be dynamic multimedia information capable of displaying operation steps, such as video, animation, dynamic graphics, and the like. The multimedia information is used to demonstrate the operation steps suggested by the current operation interface. For example, if the two operations of entering the next page and exiting the interface can be performed under the current operation interface, the multimedia information is played into the operation mode of the next page. The operation mode of the exit interface is not played, and other operation steps are not played, so that the user can be promptly targeted to save the user's time. For different operation interfaces, different multimedia information is presented for presentation. The smart terminal pre-stores multiple multimedia information, and each multimedia information is associated with a corresponding operation interface by a link path or name binding, etc. When the condition is played, the multimedia information is associated with and played according to the information of the current operation interface.

In some implementations of the first aspect of the present application, when step S5 is performed, the multimedia information is a dynamic image or video. The preferred embodiment optimizes the multimedia information, ie, a moving image or video. The dynamic image is an animation with a short playing time. The common format is a GIF animation, and the dynamic effects can be realized by sequentially displaying a plurality of pre-stored static images in order. The advantage of using a dynamic image is that the occupied storage capacity is small, saving the storage resources of the smart terminal.

In some implementations of the first aspect of the present application, when performing step S5, the smart terminal opens an adjustable size play window to play the multimedia information. The preferred embodiment preferably optimizes the playing form of the multimedia information, that is, playing through a window, and the size of the window is adjustable. Since the operation interface already has its own customized display content, it is inconvenient to directly perform the presentation on the display interface, so another window is opened for playing multimedia information, and the window can be called to invoke related controls. The size of the window can be adjusted, which is to modify the size parameter in the control of the window; the user can directly drag the bounding box of the window to change the size of the window, and the smart terminal receives the drag operation and drags the window The pixel coordinates of the moving operation are converted and transmitted to the control, and the window is redisplayed according to the pixel coordinates of the drag operation.

Referring to FIG. 2, it is a schematic diagram of a specific process in step S5 of FIG. 1 in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The step S5 includes:

S5-1: Determine whether the smart terminal receives a stop playback operation.

When the smart terminal plays the multimedia information, the user is allowed to stop the playing operation, and the implementation manner may be: displaying a virtual button that can stop playing on the display interface; or preset a physical button on the smart terminal to stop Play the button. The implementation manner of detecting the virtual button by the smart terminal is to detect whether a sensor in a virtual button area of the touch screen of the smart terminal receives a pressing operation; and detecting that the physical button is pressed is implemented by the physical button The associated detection circuit performs state determination when the physical button is pressed A change in the state of the detection circuit is caused to know whether the physical button is pressed.

S5-2: If the smart terminal receives the stop playing operation, stopping playing the multimedia information.

When the step S5-1 is determined, that is, the smart terminal receives the stop play operation, meaning that the user wants to stop playing the multimedia information, the process of playing the multimedia information is closed by the permission interface provided by the operating system. , end the play.

S5-3: If the smart terminal does not receive the stop playing operation, the smart terminal stops playing the multimedia information after the number of times the multimedia information is played reaches a preset threshold value in the smart terminal. .

When the step S5-1 is not determined, that is, the smart terminal does not receive the stop playing operation, the step plays the multimedia information according to the threshold of the number of times, and then stops playing. The purpose of this step is to provide a stop mechanism for the playback of the multimedia information to prevent the multimedia information from being played indefinitely. Setting a threshold number of times in the smart terminal, and setting a count identifier when playing the multimedia information, increasing the count identifier by 1 every time the multimedia information is played, until the count identifier reaches the threshold value, Then, the process of playing the multimedia information is closed by the permission interface provided by the operating system, and the playback ends. The number of times threshold is preferably at least 3 times.

Referring to FIG. 3, it is a schematic diagram of a specific process in step S5 of FIG. 1 in accordance with another preferred embodiment of the present invention. The step S5 includes:

S5-4: The smart terminal plays a segment of the operation step in the multimedia information.

The multimedia information may include a demonstration of a plurality of operation steps, and the multimedia information may be divided into a plurality of operation step segments according to the operation steps, and each operation step segment corresponds to a demonstration of one operation step. In this step, only one operation step segment is played. The implementation manner may be that the multimedia information is divided into multiple independent playback files, and each of the playback files is a sequence of operation steps, which ensures that the independent playback does not interfere with each other. The implementation may also be to record the duration of each operation step segment in the multimedia information, and perform timing when the operation step segment starts playing, and pause playing the multimedia information when the timing meets the duration of the operation step segment.

S5-5: Pausing the multimedia information and displaying at least one prompt button on the display interface of the smart terminal.

After the step S5-4 is played, the step of playing the next step of the operation step is paused, and at least one prompt button is displayed on the display interface of the smart terminal. The prompt button may be a virtual button and circled with a red circle to prompt the position of the user button. The function of the prompt button is to enter the playback of the next operation step segment, considering that many users need a certain time to understand the previous operation. The content of the step segment, so the pause mechanism is set, and the user actively controls the playback to the next step of the operation step. The implementation of the prompt button may be a screenshot of the last frame of the operation step segment in the step S5-4, and then on the secondary screenshot The space increase button is used to draw a red circle; the implementation manner may also be a pre-stored prompt interface, and the prompt interface is displayed after the operation step segment is played in the step S5-4, and the prompt interface has buttons and prompts. Red circle.

S5-6: playing the next operation step segment in the multimedia information when the prompt button receives an activation operation.

The smart terminal detects whether the prompt button receives an activation operation, that is, the user clicks the prompt button, and the implementation manner may be that the touch screen sensor in the prompt button area performs state detection. If the prompt button receives an activation operation, the next operation step segment in the multimedia information is played. When the smart terminal pre-stores the operation step segment, all the operation step segments are numbered, so that the next operation step segment can be played in order. When performing playback, simply open the playback file of the operation step segment that needs to be played.

S5-7: Steps S5-5 to S5-6 are repeated until all the operation step segments in the multimedia information are played.

This step cyclically executes the steps S5-5 to S5-6, that is, after playing an operation step segment, pause and display the prompt button, receive the activation operation of the prompt button, then play the next operation step segment, and then continue to pause and then The prompt button is displayed, and the playback is repeated until all the operation step segments in the multimedia information are completed. For example, if there are three operation step segments in a certain multimedia information, the playback operation step segment 1 is performed first in step S5-4, and the activation operation is performed after the step S5-5 is paused. Step S5-6 is performed in the playback operation step segment 2, and the steps are performed again. S5-5 is paused, and after receiving the activation operation, step S5-6 is performed to perform the playback process step segment 3, and the entire playback process of the multimedia information is completed.
