FIG. 4 is a software configuration block diagram of the electronic device 300 in this embodiment.

The layered architecture divides the software into several layers, each of which has a clear role and division of labor. The layers communicate with each other through a software interface. In some embodiments, the Android system is divided into four layers, which are an application layer, an application framework layer, an Android runtime and a system library, and a kernel layer from top to bottom.

The application layer can include a series of application packages.

As shown in Figure 4, the application package can include applications such as camera, gallery, calendar, call, map, navigation, WLAN, Bluetooth, music, video, and SMS.

Exemplarily, the technical solutions involved in the following embodiments can be implemented in the electronic device 300 having the above-mentioned hardware architecture and software architecture. The display method of the interface provided in this embodiment is described in detail below with reference to the drawings and application scenarios.

In the daily use of electronic devices, users need to use their two hands to operate on the touch screen of electronic devices in most cases, but users will also encounter scenarios in which it is not convenient to use two hands to operate, for example, users need to use one Hold the armrest with your hand. In this scenario, when a user needs to use an electronic device, he can only hold the electronic device with one hand (left or right hand), and use this hand to operate on the touch screen of the electronic device, which can be called one-handed operation .

In the above-mentioned one-handed operation scenario, in some embodiments, the electronic device may start the one-handed operation mode when it is determined that a specific condition is satisfied. Wherein, in this one-handed operation mode, the electronic device can divide the GUI currently displayed on the touch screen (such as the first GUI of the first application program) into N sub-interfaces (N is an integer greater than or equal to 2, such as N = 4 , 6 or 9 etc.), and project one of the N sub-interfaces into the projection area of the touch screen, that is, the electronic device can display a target interface (such as the first target interface) in the projection area, The first target interface is superimposed and displayed on the first GUI, and the content of the first target interface is the same as that of one of the N sub-interfaces (such as the first sub-interface). Alternatively, in the one-handed operation mode, the electronic device may divide the first GUI of the first application displayed on the touch screen into N sub-interfaces, and project controls included in one of the N sub-interfaces onto the touch screen. In the projection area, the controls included in the first target interface are displayed in the projection area, and the controls included in the first target interface are superimposed and displayed on the first GUI.

In some embodiments, the above-mentioned superimposed display may refer to the first target interface floatingly displayed on the first GUI. In some other embodiments, the above-mentioned superimposed display may mean that the first target interface is displayed on the first GUI, and the first GUI performs Gaussian blur processing.

In other embodiments, the electronic device may display a one-handed operation interface when it is determined that a specific condition is satisfied. The one-handed operation interface may be an interface displayed in the one-handed operation mode described above.

The projection area may be an entire area or a part of an area accessible by a finger when the user holds the electronic device with one hand. In this way, when the user holds the electronic device with one hand, it is more convenient to implement the operation on the content displayed on the area inaccessible to the finger in the touch screen.

In some embodiments, when the electronic device determines that a specific condition is met, the one-handed operation mode is activated. Specifically, the electronic device may start the one-handed operation mode when it is determined that the user holds the electronic device with one hand.

Exemplarily, the electronic device may detect a holding gesture of the user holding the electronic device (the holding gesture may include one-handed holding and two-handed holding), and when it is determined that the holding gesture is one-handed holding, start one-handed Operating mode. For example, a sensor (such as a proximity light sensor) may be configured on the frame of the electronic device, and the sensor may be used to detect a holding gesture of the user holding the electronic device. When the user holds the electronic device with one hand, the above sensor can detect that the holding gesture of the user holding the electronic device is one-handed. In response to the above detection, the electronic device may initiate a one-handed operation mode.

In some other embodiments, when the electronic device determines that a specific condition is met, the one-handed operation mode is activated, which may specifically include: when the electronic device determines that the operation input by the user on the touch screen is the first operation, the one-handed operation mode is activated.

The first operation may be a specific operation input by the user on the touch screen of the electronic device. For example, the specific operation may be a sliding operation with a specific sliding track (eg, shown as 502 in FIG. 5A). For another example, the first operation may also be a user ’s operation of a virtual button displayed on the touch screen of the electronic device. For example, the first operation may be a user ’s double-click, heavy pressing, or long-press operation on the floating button displayed on the touch screen of the electronic device .

Exemplarily, when receiving an operation input by the user on the touch screen, the electronic device may determine whether the operation input by the user is the first operation. When the electronic device determines that the operation input by the user is the first operation, the electronic device starts a one-handed operation mode. For example, as shown in FIG. 5A, a first operation is a sliding operation with a specific sliding track input by a user on a touch screen of an electronic device, and the first GUI includes a sub-screen 501 included in the main screen as an example for detailed description. When the user holds the electronic device with one hand (such as the left hand), the user can use a left-hand thumb to input a sliding operation with a sliding track shown by 502 on the electronic device touch screen. When the electronic device receives the sliding operation, it may determine that the sliding operation is the first operation. In response to the above determination, the electronic device may initiate a one-handed operation mode. It should be noted that when the first operation is a sliding operation with a specific sliding track, the specific sliding track includes but is not limited to the sliding track 502 shown in FIG. 5A. For example, the specific sliding track may also be a pointing electronic device. Sliding trajectory in the bottom right corner, etc. When the user uses the right hand to hold the electronic device, the sliding operation with a sliding track pointing to the lower right corner of the electronic device can be performed.

In other embodiments, the electronic device may be configured with a switch button for turning on or off the one-handed operation function. When the switch button is turned on, the electronic device can start the one-handed operation mode only when it is determined that certain conditions are met.

In some embodiments, the switch button may be a virtual switch button displayed on a touch screen of the electronic device. For example, as shown in FIG. 6, when the user wants to use the one-hand operation function of the electronic device, the user may perform a click operation on the switch button 602 of the one-hand operation function in the setting interface 601 of the electronic device. After the user performs a click operation on the switch button 602, the electronic device can turn on the one-handed operation function. After the user performs a click operation on the switch button 602 again, the electronic device can turn off the one-handed operation function. The display effect of the switch button 602 shown in FIG. 6 is used to indicate that the one-hand operation function is not turned on. The user can perform a click operation on the switch button 602 at this time to turn on the one-hand operation function of the electronic device.

In other embodiments, the switch button may be a physical button. The physical button may be disposed on a surface of the electronic device (for example, a side of a mobile phone). After the user presses or dials the physical button, the electronic device can turn on the one-handed operation function. When the user's finger presses or toggles the physical button again, the electronic device can turn off the one-handed operation function.

That is, if the one-hand operation function of the electronic device is turned on, the electronic device can start the one-hand operation mode when it is determined that a certain condition is satisfied. If the one-hand operation function of the electronic device is not turned on, when the electronic device receives a user operation on the touch screen of the electronic device, in response to the operation, it performs a conventional response, such as when the electronic device receives a pointing operation performed by the user on the touch screen. In the sliding operation in the lower left corner of the electronic device, a notification bar is displayed in response to the sliding operation.

In some embodiments, when determining that a specific condition is met, the electronic device may divide the first GUI into N sub-interfaces, and project one of the N sub-interfaces into a projection area of the touch screen, that is, the electronic device is in The projection area displays a first target interface, the first target interface is superimposed and displayed on the first GUI, and the content of the first target interface and the content of one of the N sub-interfaces (such as the first sub-interface). the same. In some other embodiments, when the electronic device determines that certain conditions are met, the first GUI may be divided into N sub-interfaces, and controls in one of the N sub-interfaces are projected into a projection area of the touch screen, that is, The electronic device displays controls included in the first target interface in the projection area, and the controls included in the first target interface are superimposed and displayed on the first GUI. In this way, it is convenient for the user to perform one-handed operation. It can be understood that the N sub-interfaces may be the same size and the same shape, or the N sub-interfaces may be different sizes or different shapes. The following embodiments do not place any restrictions on this.

In some embodiments, if the first GUI includes more controls (for example, the first GUI includes controls greater than a first predetermined threshold), such as an application interface such as Taobao, the first GUI may be divided to obtain multiple sub-controllers. Interface, thereby projecting one of the multiple sub-interfaces onto the projection area. Alternatively, if there are many controls included in the first GUI, the first GUI may be divided to obtain multiple sub-interfaces, so that the controls included in one of the multiple sub-interfaces are projected to the projection area. If there are fewer controls included in the first GUI (for example, the controls included in the first GUI are less than the second predetermined threshold, and the second predetermined threshold is less than or equal to the first predetermined threshold), such as the playback interface of a video application, the first GUI may be omitted. A GUI is divided, and the controls included in the first GUI can be projected to the projection area, such as projecting virtual keys such as play, pause, and fast forward included in the playback interface of the video application.

The first GUI may be a sub-screen included on a home screen (home screen, which may also be referred to as a desktop) displayed on a touch screen of an electronic device, or may be any display interface of any application in the electronic device. In some embodiments, the division of the first GUI may not include a status bar and a navigation bar. If the first GUI is a sub-screen included in the main screen, if the sub-screen includes a dock bar, the division of the first GUI may not include the dock bar.

In some embodiments, the electronic device may divide the first GUI into N sub-interfaces according to the value of N. Exemplarily, the value of N may be pre-configured in the electronic device, or may be manually set by a user, or may be automatically configured by the electronic device according to content included in the first GUI.

In the case where the value of N is pre-configured in the electronic device, the value of N may increase as the size of the touch screen of the electronic device increases. For example, when the size of the touch screen of the electronic device is 5 inches, the value of N may be 4. When the size of the touch screen of the electronic device is 6 inches, the value of N can be 6. When the size of the touch screen of the electronic device is 7 inches, the value of N can be 9. Taking a sub-screen included in the first GUI as an example, as shown in FIGS. 7A-7C, it is a schematic diagram of the division results of the first GUI displayed on touch screens of different sizes. In FIG. 7A, the first GUI displayed on the 5-inch touch screen is divided into four sub-interfaces, which are sub-interface 1 (G1), sub-interface 2 (G2), sub-interface 3 (G3), and sub-interface 4 ( G4). In FIG. 7B, the first GUI displayed on the 6-inch touch screen is divided into six sub-interfaces, which are sub-interface 1 (G1), sub-interface 2 (G2), sub-interface 3 (G3), and sub-interface 4. (G4), sub-interface 5 (G5), and sub-interface 6 (G6). In FIG. 7C, the first GUI displayed on the 7-inch touch screen is divided into nine sub-interfaces, which are sub-interface 1 (G1), sub-interface 2 (G2), sub-interface 3 (G3), and sub-interface 4. (G4), sub-interface 5 (G5), sub-interface 6 (G6), sub-interface 7 (G7), sub-interface 8 (G8), and sub-interface 9 (G9).

When the value of N is manually set by the user, for example, as shown in FIG. 6, the user can set the value of N in a setting option 603 included in the setting interface 601 of the electronic device.

In the case where the value of N is automatically configured by the electronic device according to the content included in the GUI currently displayed on the touch screen, the value of N may be dynamically changed as the content included in the GUI displayed on the touch screen changes. For example, the more controls included on the GUI displayed on the touch screen, the larger the value of N is. For example, as shown in FIG. 7D, if the GUI currently displayed on the touch screen of the electronic device is a sub-screen 701 of the main screen, the electronic device configures the value of N as 6, that is, the sub-screen 701 is divided into 6 sub-interfaces, respectively Sub-interface 1 (G1), sub-interface 2 (G2), sub-interface 3 (G3), sub-interface 4 (G4), sub-interface 5 (G5), and sub-interface 6 (G6). As shown in FIG. 7E, if the GUI currently displayed on the touch screen of the electronic device is Taobao's interface 702, the Taobao's interface 702 contains more controls than the subscreen 701 contains, and the electronic device configures the value of N as 9, which is about to be Taobao Interface 702 is divided into 9 sub-interfaces, which are sub-interface 1 (G1), sub-interface 2 (G2), sub-interface 3 (G3), sub-interface 4 (G4), sub-interface 5 (G5), and sub-interface 6 ( G6), sub-interface 7 (G7), sub-interface 8 (G8), and sub-interface 9 (G9).

In this way, when the electronic device detects that certain conditions are met, the electronic device may divide the first GUI into N sub-interfaces according to the value of N, such as dividing the first GUI into N sub-interfaces according to the value of N. For example, with reference to FIG. 5A, a detailed description will be given by taking the value of N as 6 as an example. When the electronic device receives the user's left-hand thumb to input a sliding operation with the sliding track shown in 502 on the electronic device touch screen, the electronic device determines that the sliding operation is the first operation. As shown in FIG. 5B, in response to the above determination, the electronic device may divide the first GUI (the first GUI includes a sub-screen 501 included in the main screen) into 6 sub-interfaces according to the value of N (N = 6).

In other embodiments, the electronic device may also divide the first GUI into N sub-interfaces according to the content included in the first GUI (such as the layout of controls in the first GUI).

The values and sizes of the sub-interfaces obtained by different first GUI divisions may be the same or different. In this way, when the electronic device detects that a specific condition is met, the electronic device may divide the first GUI into N sub-interfaces according to the content included in the first GUI. For example, when the first GUI is a WeChat interface, as shown in FIG. 8A, when the electronic device determines that certain conditions are met, the WeChat interface 801 may be changed according to the layout of the controls on the WeChat interface 801 currently displayed on the touch screen of the electronic device. It is divided into 6 sub-interfaces as shown in FIG. 8A. When the first GUI is the interface of Taobao, as shown in FIG. 8B, when the electronic device determines that certain conditions are met, the interface of Taobao 802 can be divided into The nine sub-interfaces shown in FIG. 8B.

Among them, the shape (such as a square) of the sub-interface obtained by the division shown in FIG. 5B, FIG. 7A to FIG. 7E, and FIG. 8A to FIG. 8B is only one possible example. In a specific implementation, the sub-interface obtained by the division is also It can be a regular shape such as a circle, a pentagon, a hexagon, or an irregular shape. It can be understood that the outlines of the above sub-interfaces can be superimposed and displayed on the first GUI (as shown in any of the above-mentioned Figures 5B, 7A-7E, and 8A-8B), which is convenient for users Perform the one-handed operation more intuitively; in other embodiments, the outline of the sub-interface may not be displayed on the first GUI.

In some embodiments, after the first GUI is divided into N sub-interfaces, the electronic device may project one of the N sub-interfaces (such as the first sub-interface) onto a projection area of the touch screen, that is, the electronic device. A first target interface is displayed in the projection area. The first target interface is superimposed and displayed on the first GUI, and its content is the same as that of one of the N sub-interfaces. In some other embodiments, after the electronic device divides the first GUI into N sub-interfaces, the electronic device may project the controls included in one of the N sub-interfaces onto the projection area of the touch screen. The projection area displays controls included in the first target interface, and the controls included in the first target interface are superimposed and displayed on the first GUI.

In some embodiments, the display effect of the sub-interface (such as the first sub-interface) projected onto the projection area may be different from the display effect of other sub-interfaces in the first GUI; for example, the transparency of the first sub-interface is less than that of other sub-interfaces in the first GUI. The transparency of the sub-interface, for example, the background color of the first sub-interface is gray, and the background colors of the other sub-interfaces in the first GUI are white (for example, FIGS. 11A-11B may be an example, in which the figures use diagonal lines) The fill represents the background color of the sub-interface is gray). In other embodiments, the display effect of the first target interface is the same as the display effect of the sub-interface (such as the first sub-interface) projected onto the projection area, and the display effect is the same as that of other sub-interfaces in the first GUI. The effect is different; for example, the transparency of the first target interface is the same as the transparency of the first sub-interface, and the transparency of other sub-interfaces in the first GUI is greater than the transparency of the first target interface. The background colors of the sub-interfaces are all gray, and the background colors of the other sub-interfaces in the first GUI are white (for example, FIGS. 10A-10B can be an example, in which the background color of the sub-interface is represented by diagonal fill in the figure is gray). In this way, when the user operates in the projection area, it can be very intuitive to know which sub-interface in the first GUI corresponds to the first target interface in the projection area.

The projection area is an entire area or a part of the area that can be touched by a finger when the user holds the electronic device with one hand. The projection area may coincide with a region where one of the N sub-interfaces is located. It can be understood that the one-handed holding may include a left-handed holding and a right-handed holding. When the user holds the electronic device with his left hand, the area reachable by the user's finger is close to the left border of the electronic device, and when the user holds the electronic device with his right hand, the area reachable by the user's finger is close to the right border of the electronic device. The electronic device can determine a projection area. Exemplarily, the electronic device may determine the projection area according to a holding gesture of the user holding the electronic device. Generally speaking, as shown in FIG. 9A, when the user holds the electronic device with his left hand, the user's fingers generally hold the lower left of the electronic device. Therefore, the projection area may be the lower left corner area 901 of the touch screen of the electronic device. Similarly, as shown in FIG. 9B, when the user holds the electronic device with his right hand, the user's fingers generally hold the lower right portion of the electronic device. Therefore, the projection area may be the lower right corner area 902 of the touch screen of the electronic device. It can be understood that the shapes of the above-mentioned

regions

901 and 902 may not be limited to the rectangles in FIGS. 9A and 9B, and may also be fan-shaped regions that can be touched by a single-handed finger; this embodiment does not specifically limit this. . For example, as shown in FIG. 9C, when the user holds the electronic device with his left hand, the projection area may be the lower left corner area 903 of the touch screen of the electronic device. Similarly, as shown in FIG. 9D, when the user holds the electronic device with his right hand, the projection area may be the lower right corner area 904 of the touch screen of the electronic device.

In other embodiments, the electronic device may use a configured sensor to detect whether a holding gesture of the user holding the electronic device is left-handed or right-handed. The electronic device may also determine whether the holding gesture of the user holding the electronic device is left-handed or right-handed according to the position of the first operation on the touch screen. That is, the electronic device may determine the projection area according to the first operation. For example, when the position of the first operation on the touch screen is close to the left side of the touch screen of the electronic device, it is determined that the holding gesture of the user holding the electronic device is left hand holding, and at this time, the electronic device may determine that the projection area is the lower left of the touch screen of the electronic device Corner area. When the position of the first operation on the touch screen is close to the right side of the touch screen of the electronic device, it is determined that the holding gesture of the user holding the electronic device is a right-handed hold. At this time, the electronic device may determine that the projection area is the lower left corner of the touch screen of the electronic device .

In some embodiments, after the electronic device divides the first GUI into N sub-interfaces, the first sub-interface of the N sub-interfaces may be projected into the projection area by default, that is, the first display of the electronic device in the projection area is the first The content of the target interface may be the same as the content of the first sub-interface by default. The first sub-interface may be a sub-interface having one or more of the following conditions among the N sub-interfaces: in a region with the highest operating frequency, including the most controls, and having the most adjacent sub-interfaces. In some other embodiments, after the first GUI is divided into N sub-interfaces by the electronic device, the controls included in one of the N sub-interfaces (such as the first sub-interface) may be projected onto the projection area by default. In other words, the controls displayed by the electronic device in the projection area may be the same as the controls included in the first sub-interface by default.

If the first sub-interface is not the sub-interface that the user wants to operate, the user may perform a second operation, such as a sliding operation, in the projection area. In some embodiments, in response to the second operation, the electronic device may project other sub-interfaces (such as a third sub-interface) of the N sub-interfaces into the above-mentioned projection area, that is, the electronic device displays a third target interface in the projection area. The third target interface is hovering and displayed on the first GUI, and the content of the third target interface is the same as that of the third sub-interface. In some other embodiments, in response to the second operation, the electronic device may include a control included in the third target interface displayed in the projection area. If the third sub-interface is not the sub-interface that the user wants to operate, the user may perform the second operation in the projection area until the sub-interface that the user wants to operate is projected into the projection area.

Exemplarily, in conjunction with FIG. 9A, a user holds an electronic device with his left hand as an example. As shown in FIG. 10A, the electronic device divides the first GUI of the first application currently displayed on the touch screen into nine sub-interfaces, which are sub-interface 1 (G1), sub-interface 2 (G2), and sub-interface 3 (G3). , Sub-interface 4 (G4), sub-interface 5 (G5), sub-interface 6 (G6), sub-interface 7 (G7), sub-interface 8 (G8), and sub-interface 9 (G9). Taking the sub-interface 1 (G1) as the above-mentioned first sub-interface as an example, after the first GUI is divided, the electronic device may project the sub-interface 1 (G1) into the projection area 1001 of the touch screen by default. If the sub-interface that the user wants to operate is not sub-interface 1 (G1), but other sub-interfaces such as sub-interface 5 (G5), the user can perform a sliding operation in the above projection area, as shown in FIG. 10B, in response to With this sliding operation, the electronic device projects the sub-interface 5 (G5) into the projection area. The electronic device can project different sub-interfaces among the 9 sub-interfaces into the projection area according to the different directions of the sliding operation. As shown in FIG. 10A, if the sub-interface that the user wants to operate is sub-interface 5 (G5), the user can perform a sliding operation in the projection area with a downward direction (such as 1002 shown in FIG. 10A).

For example, with reference to FIGS. 5A-5B, the content projected into the projection area is used as a sub-interface, that is, the target interface is displayed in the projection area as an example for detailed description. As shown in FIG. 11A, the electronic device divides one sub-screen 1101 of the main screen currently displayed on the touch screen into six sub-interfaces, including sub-interface 1 (G1) and sub-interface 2 (G2). The sub-interface 1 (G1) is the first sub-interface described above, and the sub-interface 2 (G2) is the sub-interface that the user wants to operate as an example. After the sub-screen 1101 is divided, the electronic device may default to the sub-interface 1 (G1) Projected into the projection area 1102 of the touch screen, that is, the content of the target interface displayed by the electronic device in the projection area is the same as the content of the sub-interface 1 (G1). If the sub-interface that the user wants to operate is not sub-interface 1 (G1), but sub-interface 2 (G2), the user can perform a sliding operation in the projection area with a direction upward (such as 1103 shown in FIG. 11A). As shown in FIG. 11B, in response to the sliding operation, the electronic device projects the sub-interface 2 (G2) into the projection area 1102 of the touch screen, that is, the content of the target interface and the sub-interface 2 ( G2) is the same.

For another example, in conjunction with FIG. 8B, the content included in the projection area is used as the control included in the sub-interface, that is, the control included in the target interface is displayed in the projection area as an example for detailed description. As shown in FIG. 12A, the electronic device divides the interface 1201 of Taobao currently displayed on the touch screen into 9 sub-interfaces, including sub-interface 1 (G1) and sub-interface 2 (G2). Among them, sub-interface 1 (G1) is the first sub-interface described above, and sub-interface 2 (G2) is the sub-interface that the user wants to operate as an example. After dividing Taobao's interface 1201, the electronic device can default the sub-interface The

controls

1202 and 1203 included in 1 (G1) are projected into the projection area 1205 of the touch screen, that is, the controls displayed in the projection area are the same as those included in the sub-interface 1 (G1). If the sub-interface that the user wants to operate is not sub-interface 1 (G1), but sub-interface 2 (G2), the user can perform a sliding operation with the direction to the left (such as 1206 shown in FIG. 12A) in the projection area. As shown in FIG. 12B, in response to the sliding operation, the electronic device projects the control 1204 included in the sub-interface 2 (G2) into the projection area 1205 of the touch screen, that is, the control displayed by the electronic device in the projection area and the sub-interface 2 at this time. (G2) The controls included are the same.

In some embodiments, the size of the sub-interface that is actually projected onto the projection area may be larger than the size of the sub-interface that is actually divided, that is, the size of the target interface displayed in the projection area may be larger than the size of the corresponding sub-interface. For example, when the shape of the sub-interface is square, the length of the sub-interface that is actually projected onto the projection area is greater than the length of the sub-interface that is actually divided, and / or the width of the sub-interface that is actually projected onto the projection area is greater than that obtained from the actual division The width of the child interface. As another example, when the shape of the sub-interface is circular, the radius of the sub-interface that is actually projected onto the projection area is larger than the radius of the sub-interface that is actually divided. In this way, it is possible to avoid that the control of the edge area of the obtained sub-interface is difficult to touch. Exemplarily, as shown in FIG. 13, assuming that the length and width of the sub-interface obtained by actual division are L, the length and width of the sub-interface can be reserved for R, and then the length is (L + R). The sub-interface with a width of (W + R) is projected onto the projection area, that is, the size of the target interface displayed in the projection area is: the length is (L + R) and the width is (W + R).

Among them, FIG. 9A to FIG. 9D, FIG. 10A to FIG. 10B, FIG. 11A to FIG. 11B, FIG. 12A to FIG. 12B, and FIG. 13 only give possible examples of the projection area in this embodiment by way of example. The shape and size include, but are not limited to, the projection area shown in the figure above. In some embodiments, the electronic device may determine the shape and size of the projection area according to the size and shape of the sub-interface (such as the first sub-interface) that is projected onto the projection area and the projection ratio. The projection ratio may refer to the ratio of the size of the first sub-interface to the size of the target interface, such as 1: 1, 1: 2, 1: 0.9, and so on. The projection ratio may be pre-configured in the electronic device or manually set by the user (for example, the corresponding setting option may be included in the setting interface 601 shown in FIG. 6). In some other embodiments, the electronic device can also determine the shape and size of the projection area according to a preset projection ratio (such as 1: 1), and the user can also adjust the size of the projection area (such as reducing or enlarging) by using a zoom gesture. ). In addition, the transparency of the target interface displayed by the electronic device in the projection area may be preset in the electronic device or manually set by the user (for example, the corresponding setting option may be included in the setting interface 601 shown in FIG. 6). in). The display position of the projection area on the touch screen is not limited to the display position in the above drawings, and the user can manually adjust the display position of the projection area on the touch screen.

In other embodiments, the user can operate the content displayed in the projection area to operate the content in the area that cannot be reached by a finger on the touch screen. Exemplarily, the user may perform a third operation in the projection area. In response to the third operation, the electronic device displays a GUI on the touch screen, which is the same as the GUI displayed by the electronic device in response to the third operation performed by the user in the corresponding position of the sub-interface in the first GUI. For example, the user performs a touch operation on the first control displayed in the projection area. In response to the touch operation, the electronic device may display a second GUI of the first application, and the second GUI and the electronic device respond to the user in the first GUI. The GUI displayed in a touch operation on the first control in a sub-interface (such as the first sub-interface) is the same. For another example, the user performs a touch operation on the second control displayed in the projection area. In response to the touch operation, the electronic device may display a third GUI of the second application program, and the third GUI and the electronic device respond to the user ’s The GUI displayed on a sub-interface (such as the first sub-interface) in a GUI by touching the second control is the same.

The operation of the user at the touch point of the projection area may be mapped to the same operation of the user at the corresponding touch point of the sub-interface in the first GUI. For example, as shown in FIG. 13, the operation of the user at the touch point A of the projection area 1301 can be mapped to the same operation of the user at the touch point a of the sub-interface 1302 in the first GUI, and the user's touch at the projection area 1301 The operation at the point B may be mapped to the same operation at the touch point b of the user's sub-interface 1302 in the first GUI. That is, the GUI displayed by the electronic device in response to the user's operation at the touch point A of the projection area 1301 is the same as the GUI displayed by the electronic device in response to the same operation by the user at the touch point a of the sub-interface 1302 in the first GUI. The GUI displayed by the electronic device in response to a user's operation at the touch point B of the projection area 1301 is the same as the GUI displayed by the electronic device in response to the same operation by the user at the touch point b of the sub-interface 1302 in the first GUI.

For example, in conjunction with FIG. 11A, as shown in FIG. 14A, the operation of the user at the touch point where the camera icon displayed in the projection area 1401 can be mapped to the same operation at the touch point where the camera icon is in the sub-interface 1402. That is, as shown in FIG. 14A, the GUI currently displayed by the electronic device is the first GUI of the first application, that is, a sub-screen of the main screen. When the user performs a click operation on a second control displayed in the projection area 1401, such as a camera icon, in response to the click operation, as shown in FIG. 14B, the electronic device may display a third GUI of the second application, that is, the electronic device display The interface 1403 of the camera is the same as the GUI displayed when the user performs a click operation on the camera icon in the sub-interface 1402.

Wherein, in some embodiments, the electronic device responds to the third operation performed by the user in the projection area, and the specific implementation of displaying the GUI on the touch screen may be: the electronic device may project a sub-interface of the first GUI onto the projection area (such as The bitmap information of the first sub-interface) is stored in a cache. When the electronic device receives the user's third operation at the touch point (such as touch point A) in the above-mentioned projection area, it can determine the corresponding position coordinates of touch point A according to the stored bitmap information and the position coordinates of touch point A. Position coordinates of a touch point (such as touch point a) on a sub-interface in the first GUI. After determining the position coordinates of the touch point a, the electronic device can respond to the third operation performed on the projection area according to the position coordinates of the touch point a, that is, display the GUI on the touch screen.

In some other embodiments, the electronic device responds to the third operation performed by the user in the projection area, and the specific implementation of displaying the GUI on the touch screen may be: the electronic device may project a bitmap of a sub-interface of the first GUI onto the projection area. The information, the application package name corresponding to the sub-interface, and the control identification (identify, ID) included in the sub-interface are stored in the cache. When the electronic device receives the third operation of the user at the touch point (such as touch point A) in the above-mentioned projection area, it may be determined according to the position coordinates of touch point A, the stored bitmap information, and the control ID included in the sub-interface. The ID of the control operated by the user. The electronic device responds to the third operation performed on the projection area according to the ID of the control operated by the user and the stored application package name, that is, displays the GUI on the touch screen.

In this way, when the user holds the electronic device with one hand, the operation of displaying content on an area that cannot be touched by a finger in the touch screen can be realized in the projection area. In addition, by dividing the GUI currently displayed on the touch screen into multiple sub-interfaces, and projecting them in the projection area in units of sub-interfaces, it is possible to display the content displayed in areas that cannot be touched by the user's finger in a similar or the same or larger proportion In an area reachable by a user's finger. In this way, without affecting the visual experience and operation experience of the user, the user can conveniently operate the content displayed on the area inaccessible to the finger in the touch screen, thereby achieving efficient interaction between the electronic device and the user.

In some embodiments, when the electronic device displays the GUI, such as the second GUI or the third GUI, the GUI may also divide the GUI into multiple sub-interfaces, and project one of the multiple sub-interfaces to The projection area of the touch screen. In some other embodiments, when the electronic device displays the GUI, such as the second GUI or the third GUI, the GUI may also be divided into multiple sub-interfaces, and one of the multiple sub-interfaces may be divided into one of the sub-interfaces. The included controls are projected onto the projection area of the touch screen. In this way, it is convenient for the user to operate.

The division rule used by the electronic device to divide the second GUI or the third GUI may be the same as the division rule used when dividing the first GUI. The selection of the sub-interface projected onto the projection area and the projection method and the selection of the sub-interface in the first GUI may be the same. And the projection method can be the same. In some other embodiments, the division rule used by the electronic device to divide the second GUI or the third GUI may be different from the division rule used when dividing the first GUI. The selection of the sub-interface projected onto the projection area and the projection method are different from the first. The sub-interface selection and projection method in the GUI can also be different.

For example, the electronic device divides the first GUI according to the value of N, and the electronic device may also divide the third GUI according to the same value of N. For example, in conjunction with FIGS. 14A-14B, the electronic device divides a sub-screen of the main screen into 6 sub-interfaces according to the value of N (N = 6), and the user performs a touch operation on the second control displayed in the projection area, such as Click on the camera icon displayed in the projection area. As shown in FIG. 15, when the electronic device displays the third GUI 1501 in response to the click operation, the third GUI 1501 can be divided into six sub-interfaces according to the value of N (N = 6), including sub-interface 1 (G1 ). In addition, the electronic device may project the sub-interface 1 (G1) of the six sub-interfaces divided by the third GUI 1501 into the projection area 1502 of the touch screen, which is convenient for the user to continue one-handed operation. For another example, the electronic device divides the first GUI according to the value of N, and the value of N is determined according to the number of controls in the GUI currently displayed on the touch screen. For example, the electronic device divides the first GUI into N ₁ sub-interfaces according to the number of controls in the first GUI, and projects one of the N ₁ sub-interfaces onto a projection area. The user performed a touch operation on the second control in the projection area. In response to the touch operation, the electronic device displays a third GUI. The third GUI has fewer controls than the first GUI includes. The electronic device can divide the third GUI into N ₂ sub-interfaces, and N _{2 is} less than N ₁ . The electronic device may further display a second target interface in the projection area, the second target interface is superimposed and displayed on the third GUI, and the content of the second target interface may be the same as one of the N ₂ sub-interfaces ( As in the second sub-interface).

For another example, the electronic device divides the first GUI according to the control layout in the GUI currently displayed on the touch screen. At this time, the electronic device can also divide the second GUI according to the control layout in the second GUI. For example, in conjunction with FIG. 12A, as shown in FIG. 16A, the electronic device divides the first GUI of the first application currently displayed on the touch screen, such as the interface 1601 of Taobao, into nine sub-interfaces, including sub-interface 1 (G1), and The

controls

1602 and 1603 included in the sub-interface 1 (G1) are projected into a projection area 1604 of the touch screen. The user performs a touch operation on a first control included in the projection area 1604, such as the control 1605. As shown in FIG. 16B, in response to the touch operation, the electronic device displays a second GUI of the first application program, such as Taobao's scan interface 1606. When the electronic device displays the scan interface 1606 of Taobao, the GUI may be divided according to the control layout in the scan interface 1606. As shown in FIG. 16B, the electronic device divides the scan interface 1606 into five sub-interfaces, including sub-interface 2 (G2) and sub-interface 3 (G3). The electronic device may project the controls included in the sub-interface 2 (G2) into the projection area 1604 by default. Assuming that the sub-interface that the user wants to operate is not sub-interface 2 (G2), but sub-interface 3 (G3), the user can perform a sliding operation in the projection area with a direction to the left (such as 1607 shown in FIG. 16B). As shown in FIG. 16C, in response to the sliding operation, the electronic device projects the control 1608 included in the sub-interface 3 (G3) into the projection area 1604 of the touch screen. At this time, the user can operate the controls displayed in the projection area 1604, so that the electronic device opens the photo album of the electronic device in response to the user's operation. Alternatively, the electronic device may not divide the scan interface 1606 when it is determined that the second GUI, such as the scan interface 1606, includes fewer controls (for example, the controls included in the second GUI are less than a predetermined threshold). Instead, all the controls included in the scan interface 1606 are projected into the projection area 1604, that is, the electronic device displays at least one control in the projection area, and the at least one control is displayed superimposed on the second GUI (such as the scan interface 1606) Above, the at least one control corresponds to the control included in the second GUI, which is convenient for user operation.

In some embodiments, when the user does not want to use the one-handed operation mode, the electronic device may be triggered to exit the one-handed operation mode, for example, the user may perform a fourth operation. The electronic device exits the one-handed operation mode in response to the fourth operation. The fourth operation may be a specific operation input by a user on a touch screen of the electronic device. Exemplarily, the specific operation may be a sliding operation with a specific sliding track. For example, the specific operation is a sliding operation having a sliding trajectory pointing to the lower left corner of the electronic device. When the user holds the electronic device with his left hand, in the one-handed operation mode, the user can perform a sliding operation with a sliding track pointing to the lower left corner of the electronic device in the projection area. In response to the sliding operation, the electronic device can exit the one-handed operation mode. Alternatively, the fourth operation may also be a user operation on a virtual button displayed on the touch screen of the electronic device. Alternatively, the fourth operation may also be an operation (such as a tap operation) performed by the user on an area outside the projection area on the touch screen of the electronic device.

In other embodiments, the electronic device may also automatically exit the one-handed operation mode when it is determined that no operation from the user is received within a preset time. Alternatively, the electronic device may also determine whether to exit the one-handed operation mode based on whether controls are included in an area that cannot be reached when the user holds with one hand on the second GUI or the third GUI. That is, for example, when the electronic device displays the second GUI, it can determine whether the area in the second GUI that the user cannot reach when holding it with one hand contains controls. If the user cannot hold the control in the second GUI with one hand If the area does not contain controls, the electronic device automatically exits the one-handed operation mode. If the area in the second GUI that cannot be reached by the user with one hand is holding controls, the electronic device executes the above-mentioned division of the second GUI into multiple sub-children. Interface, and projecting one of a plurality of sub-interfaces (or a control included in one of the sub-interfaces) onto a projection area of the touch screen. In this way, it can not only meet the user's needs for one-handed operation, but also automatically exit the one-handed operation mode when there are no controls in the area that cannot be reached when the user holds with one hand on the subsequently displayed GUI, which improves the user experience. Make electronic devices smarter.

With reference to the foregoing embodiments and corresponding drawings, this embodiment provides a method for displaying an interface. The method may be implemented in an electronic device (such as a mobile phone, a mobile phone, a software structure shown in FIG. 3 and / or a software structure shown in FIG. 4). Tablet, etc.); as shown in FIG. 17, the method may specifically include the following steps:

Step 1701: The electronic device displays a first graphical user interface (GUI) of the first application on the touch screen, and the first GUI includes a first sub-interface.

Exemplarily, the first application program may be a main screen program, and the first GUI of the first application program is a sub-screen included in the main screen. The first application may also be another application, such as a third-party application or a system application, and the first GUI of the first application is any display interface of the application.

Step 1702: The electronic device receives an operation of turning on the one-handed operation mode.

In some embodiments, the operation that the electronic device receives to open the one-handed operation mode may specifically be that the electronic device detects that the holding gesture of the user holding the electronic device is one-handed holding. For example, a sensor configured on the frame of the electronic device may be used to detect a holding gesture of the user holding the electronic device. In some other embodiments, the electronic device receives the operation of opening the one-handed operation mode. Specifically, the electronic device may receive the first operation input by the user on the touch screen. For example, the first operation is the sliding operation shown in FIG. 5A described above. The first operation may also be an operation on a virtual button displayed on the touch screen of the electronic device, such as a double-click, a heavy press, or a long-press operation.

Step 1703: In response to the above operation, the electronic device determines a projection area.

In some embodiments, the electronic device may determine the projection area according to a holding gesture of the user holding the electronic device. For example, as shown in FIG. 9A to FIG. 9D described above, when the user holds the electronic device with his left hand, the projection area may be the lower left corner area of the touch screen of the electronic device. When the user holds the electronic device with his right hand, the projection area may be the touch screen of the electronic device. Bottom right corner area. In some other embodiments, the electronic device may determine the projection area according to the position of the operation on the touch screen. For example, when the position of the above operation on the touch screen is close to the left side of the touch screen of the electronic device, it may be determined that the projection area is the lower left corner area of the touch screen of the electronic device. When the position of the above operation on the touch screen is close to the right side of the touch screen of the electronic device, it can be determined that the projection area is the lower left corner area of the touch screen of the electronic device.

Step 1704: The electronic device displays a first target interface in the above-mentioned projection area. The first target interface is superimposed and displayed on the first GUI, and the content of the first target interface is the same as that of the first sub-interface.

The projection area is an entire area or a part of the area that can be touched by a finger when the user performs a single-handed operation.

Exemplarily, the first sub-interface may be a sub-interface in the first GUI that has one or more of the following conditions: it is in the region with the highest operating frequency, includes the most controls, and has the most adjacent sub-interfaces.

In some embodiments, the above step 1704 may be replaced by: the electronic device displays a control included in the first target interface in the above projection area.

Through the above technical solution, when the user operates the electronic device with one hand, the electronic device can project one of the sub-interfaces (or the controls included in one of the sub-interfaces in the currently displayed GUI) on the touch screen of the electronic device. To the area accessible by the user's finger on the touch screen, that is, the electronic device displays a target interface in the projection area, the target interface is superimposed on the currently displayed GUI, and the content of the target interface is the same as the content of the sub-interface, so that In the projection area, the user can operate the content displayed on the area that cannot be touched by a finger on the touch screen. This reduces the difficulty for the user to operate part of the content displayed on the touch screen with one hand, improves the use efficiency of the electronic device, and can also improve the user experience.

In other embodiments, as shown in FIG. 18, the display method may further include the following step 1801.

Step 1801: The electronic device divides the first GUI into N ₁ sub-interfaces, and the N ₁ sub-interfaces include a first sub-interface.

Exemplarily, the electronic device may divide the first GUI into N ₁ sub-interfaces according to the value of N (the value of N is N ₁ ). In some embodiments, the value of N may be pre-configured in the electronic device. For example, as shown in the aforementioned FIGS. 7A-7C, the value of N can be different according to the size of the touch screen of the electronic device. For example, the larger the touch screen size is, the larger the value of N is. In other embodiments, the value of N may be manually set by the user. For example, as shown in FIG. 6 described above, the user can set the value of N in the setting interface 603. In other embodiments, the value of N may be automatically configured by the electronic device according to the content included in the first GUI. For example, as shown in the aforementioned FIG. 7D-7E, as the GUI displayed on the touch screen includes more controls, the value of N can be larger. For another example, the electronic device may also divide the first GUI into N ₁ sub-interfaces according to the content included in the first GUI (such as the layout of controls in the first GUI). For example, as shown in the foregoing FIGS. 8A-8B, the layout of the controls in the interface 801 of the electronic device WeChat divides the interface 801 of the WeChat into the six sub-interfaces shown in FIG. 8A. The electronic device divides Taobao's interface 802 into nine sub-interfaces as shown in FIG. 8B according to the layout of the controls in Taobao's interface 802.

For example, as shown in FIG. 10A, the electronic device projects one of the nine sub-interfaces obtained by dividing the first GUI, such as sub-interface 1 (G1), onto the projection area. As shown in FIG. 11A, the electronic device projects one of the six sub-interfaces obtained by dividing the first GUI, such as sub-interface 1 (G1), onto the projection area. The first sub-interface may include at least one control.

In some embodiments, for example, as shown in FIG. 12A or FIG. 16A described above, one of the nine sub-interfaces obtained by dividing the first GUI by the electronic device includes controls included in the sub-interfaces, such as those included in sub-interface 1 (G1). The control is projected on the projection area.

Through the above technical solution, the electronic device divides the GUI currently displayed on the touch screen into multiple sub-interfaces and projects them in the projection area in units of sub-interfaces, so that the content displayed in areas that cannot be touched by a user's finger can be similar or the same or A larger scale is displayed in the area accessible to the user's finger. In this way, without affecting the visual experience and operation experience of the user, the user can conveniently operate the content displayed on the area on the touch screen that cannot be reached by a finger.

In some embodiments, the size of the sub-interface projected onto the projection area may be larger than the size of the first sub-interface. For example, as shown in the above FIG. 13, the length of the sub-interface obtained by actual division is L and the width is W, and the length of the sub-interface projected onto the projection area is (L + R) and the width is (W + R). In this way, it is possible to avoid that the control of the edge area of the obtained sub-interface is difficult to touch.

In some embodiments, the display effect of the first sub-interface may be different from the display effects of other sub-interfaces in the first GUI. For example, as shown in FIG. 11A described above, the display effect of the sub-interface 1 (G1) is different from that of other sub-interfaces in the first GUI. In other embodiments, the display effect of the first target interface is the same as the display effect of the first sub-interface, and it is different from the display effects of other sub-interfaces in the first GUI. For example, as shown in the above FIG. 10A, the display effect of the first target interface is the same as that of the sub-interface 1 (G1), and is different from the display effects of the sub-interface 2 (G2) -sub-interface 9 (G9).

In some embodiments, the above-mentioned projection area coincides with an area where one of the N ₁ sub-interfaces is located.

In some embodiments, the shape of the projection area may be the same as the shape of the first sub-interface, or may be different from the shape of the first sub-interface.

In other embodiments, as shown in FIG. 19, the first GUI may include a third sub-interface; the above method may further include the following steps:

Step 1901: The electronic device receives a sliding operation in the above-mentioned projection area.

Exemplarily, when the sub-interface (that is, the first sub-interface) that is projected onto the projection area by default is not the sub-interface that the user wants to operate, the user can perform a sliding operation in the projection area so that other users of the electronic device want to operate the sub-interface Projected into the projection area. For example, as shown in the above FIG. 10A, the electronic device projects the sub-interface 1 (G1) into the projection area by default. If the sub-interface 1 (G1) is not the sub-interface that the user wants to operate, the user can execute the Slide operation. As shown in the above FIG. 11A, the electronic device projects the sub-interface 1 (G1) into the projection area by default. If the sub-interface 1 (G1) is not the sub-interface that the user wants to operate, the user can perform the sliding operation shown in FIG. 11A .

Step 1902: In response to the sliding operation, the electronic device displays a third target interface in the projection area. The third target interface is superimposed and displayed on the first GUI, and the content of the third target interface is the same as that of the third sub-interface.

For example, as shown in FIG. 10B described above, in response to the sliding operation (as shown in FIG. 10A), the electronic device displays a third target interface in the projection area, the third target interface is superimposed and displayed on the first GUI, and the third target interface The content is the same as that of sub-screen 5 (G5). As shown in FIG. 11B above, in response to the sliding operation (as shown in FIG. 11A), the electronic device displays a third target interface in the projection area, and the content of the third target interface is the same as that of the sub-interface 2 (G2). The electronic device can project different sub-interfaces into the projection area according to different directions of the sliding operation.

In some embodiments, the above step 1902 may be replaced by: the electronic device displays a control included in the third target interface in the projection area. For example, as shown in FIG. 12B described above, in response to the sliding operation, the electronic device projects one of a plurality of sub-interfaces obtained by dividing the first GUI, such as controls included in sub-interface 2 (G2), onto a projection area.

In some other embodiments, as shown in FIG. 20, the above method may further include the following steps 2001 to 2002:

Step 2001: The electronic device receives a touch operation on the first control in the above-mentioned projection area.

Step 2002: In response to the touch operation, the electronic device displays the second GUI of the first application on the touch screen.

The second GUI is the same as the GUI displayed by the electronic device in response to a user's touch operation on the first control in the first sub-interface. For example, as shown in the above-mentioned FIGS. 16A-16B, when a user performs a touch operation on a first control such as control 1605 in the projection area, the electronic device may display the second GUI of the first application, that is, the sweeping interface of Taobao. It is the same as the GUI displayed by the electronic device in response to a user's touch operation on a control 1602 in a corresponding sub-interface (such as sub-interface 1 (G1)).

In some embodiments, when the electronic device displays the second GUI, the second GUI may be divided using the same division rule as the first GUI. The number of sub-interfaces obtained by dividing the second GUI may be the same as or different from the number of sub-interfaces obtained by dividing the first GUI. For example, the electronic device divides the first GUI according to the control layout in the GUI. As shown in FIG. 16B described above, the electronic device can also scan the scan according to the control layout in the interface 1606. The scan interface 1606 is divided, and the number of sub-interfaces obtained by the division is 5, which is different from the number of sub-interfaces obtained by the first GUI division of 9.

In some other embodiments, the number of controls included in the second GUI is less than a predetermined threshold. The above method may further include the following steps 2003:

Step 2003: The electronic device displays at least one control in the above-mentioned projection area. The at least one control is superimposed and displayed on the second GUI, and the at least one control is the same as the control included in the second GUI.

For example, the second GUI is the scan interface 1606. The electronic device may not divide the scan interface 1606, but project all the controls included in the scan interface 1606 into the projection area, which is convenient for users to operate.

In other embodiments, as shown in FIG. 21, the above method may further include the following steps 2101 to 2102:

Step 2101: The electronic device receives a touch operation on the second control in the above-mentioned projection area.

Step 2102: In response to the touch operation, the electronic device displays a third GUI of the second application on the touch screen.

The third GUI is the same as the GUI displayed by the electronic device in response to a user's touch operation on the second control in the first sub-interface. For example, as shown in the above-mentioned FIGS. 14A-14B, the user performs a touch operation on the projection area, such as a camera icon, such as a click operation, and the electronic device may display a third GUI of the second application, that is, the electronic device display The interface of the camera is the same as the GUI displayed by the electronic device in response to a user performing a click operation on a camera icon in a corresponding sub-interface (such as the sub-interface 1402).

In some embodiments, when the electronic device displays the third GUI, the third GUI may be divided using the same division rule as the first GUI. For example, the electronic device divides the first GUI into six sub-interfaces. As shown in FIG. 15 above, the electronic device may also divide the third GUI into six sub-interfaces.

In some other embodiments, the third GUI includes fewer controls than the first GUI includes. The above method may further include the following steps 2103-2104:

Step 2103: The electronic device divides the third GUI into N ₂ sub-interfaces. The N ₂ sub-interfaces include a second sub-interface, and N _{2 is} less than N ₁ .

For example, the electronic device divides the first GUI according to the value of N, and the value of N is determined according to the number of controls in the GUI currently displayed on the touch screen. For example, the electronic device divides the first GUI into N ₁ sub-interfaces according to the number of controls in the first GUI, and projects one of the N ₁ sub-interfaces onto a projection area. The user performed a touch operation on the second control in the projection area. In response to the touch operation, the electronic device displays a third GUI. The third GUI has fewer controls than the first GUI. The electronic device can divide the third GUI into N ₂ sub-interfaces.

Step 2104: The electronic device displays a second target interface in the projection area. The second target interface is superimposed and displayed on the third GUI. The content of the second target interface is the same as that of the second sub-interface.

After the electronic device divides the third GUI into a plurality of sub-interfaces, one of the sub-interfaces in the third GUI may be projected onto the projection area, which is convenient for the user to continue one-handed operation.

In some embodiments, step 2104 may be replaced by: the electronic device displays the control included in the second target interface in the projection area.

In some other embodiments, the above method may further include: the electronic device receives a touch operation outside the projection area of the user on the touch screen. In response to the touch operation, the electronic device exits the one-handed operation mode.

In some embodiments, the size of the first target interface is the same as the size of the first sub-interface, and the size of the first sub-interface is different from the sizes of other sub-interfaces in the first GUI.

In some embodiments, the above-mentioned superimposed display means that the first target interface is suspended and displayed on the first GUI.

In some embodiments, the above-mentioned overlay display means that the first target interface is displayed on the first GUI, and the first GUI performs Gaussian blur processing.

With reference to the above embodiments and corresponding drawings, this embodiment provides another interface display method. The method may be implemented in an electronic device (such as a mobile phone) having a hardware structure shown in FIG. 3 and / or a software structure shown in FIG. 4. , Tablet, etc.); as shown in FIG. 22, the method may specifically include the following steps:

Step 2201: The electronic device displays the first GUI of the first application on the touch screen.

Step 2202: The electronic device receives an operation of turning on the one-handed operation mode.

For example, the operation for turning on the one-handed operation mode may be the sliding operation shown in FIG. 5A.

Step 2203: In response to the above operation, the electronic device determines a projection area, which is an area that can be touched by a finger when the user operates the electronic device with one hand.

For example, the above-mentioned projection area may be the above-mentioned projection area shown in any one of FIGS. 9A-9D.

Step 2204: The electronic device divides the first GUI into N ₁ sub-interfaces. The N ₁ sub-interface includes a first sub-interface. The electronic device displays a first target interface in a projection area, and the first target interface is superimposed and displayed on the first sub-interface. Above a GUI, the content of the first target interface is the same as the content of the first sub-interface.

Step 2204 may be replaced by: the electronic device divides the first GUI into N ₁ sub-interfaces, and the N ₁ sub-interfaces include the first sub-interface, and the electronic device displays controls included in the first target interface in the projection area, and the first target The controls included in the interface are superimposed and displayed on the first GUI, and the content of the first target interface is the same as that of the first sub-interface.

Step 2205: The electronic device receives a first touch operation on the first control in the above-mentioned projection area.

Step 2206: In response to the first touch operation, the electronic device displays a second GUI of the first application on the touch screen, and the number of controls in the second GUI is less than a predetermined threshold.

Step 2207: The electronic device displays at least one control in the projection area. The at least one control is superimposed on the second GUI. The at least one control is the same as the control included in the second GUI. The at least one control includes the second control. Controls.

For example, the second GUI is the scan interface 1606 shown in FIG. 16B. If the number of controls included in the second GUI is less than a predetermined threshold, the interface may not be divided, but the controls in the interface may be projected on the projection area.

Step 2208: The electronic device receives a second touch operation on the second control in the above-mentioned projection area.

For example, the second control may be the album button shown in FIG. 16B described above.

Step 2209: In response to the second touch operation, the electronic device displays a third GUI of the second application on the touch screen, and the third GUI includes fewer controls than the first GUI.

For example, in response to a user's triggering operation on the album button shown in FIG. 16B described above, the electronic device may display an interface of the album on the touch screen.

Step 2210: The electronic device divides the third GUI into N ₂ sub-interfaces. The N ₂ sub-interfaces include a second sub-interface, and N _{2 is} less than N _1. A second target interface is displayed in the projection area, and the second target interface is superimposed and displayed. On the third GUI, the content of the second target interface is the same as the content of the second sub-interface.

After the electronic device displays the second target interface in the projection area, when the electronic device detects a third touch operation on the third control in the projection area, in response to the third touch operation, the electronic device displays a fourth on the touch screen. GUI; the electronic device determines whether to determine the projection area according to the content of the fourth GUI. If the projection area is to be determined, the electronic device may determine the projection area and divide the fourth GUI into N ₃ sub-interfaces, and the N ₃ sub-interfaces include a third sub-interface. Interface, and a third target interface is displayed in the projection area, and the third target interface is superimposed on the fourth GUI, and the content of the third target interface is the same as that of the third sub-interface; if the projection area is not determined, the electronic device The fourth GUI may not be divided, that is, the fourth GUI is displayed normally.

According to the technical solution provided in this embodiment, when the user operates the electronic device with one hand, the electronic device can project one of the sub-interfaces in the GUI currently displayed on the touch screen of the electronic device onto an area accessible to the user's finger on the touch screen, that is, the electronic device. A target interface is displayed in the projection area, the target interface is superimposed on the currently displayed GUI, and the content of the target interface is the same as the content of the sub-interface, so that the user can realize that the finger on the touch screen cannot be reached in the projection area. The operation of the content displayed on the area. This reduces the difficulty for the user to operate part of the content displayed on the touch screen with one hand, improves the use efficiency of the electronic device, and can also improve the user experience. In addition, according to the number of controls included in the GUI displayed on the touch screen, the electronic device can divide or not divide the GUI by using a division scheme suitable for the characteristics of the GUI, so that the interface division of the electronic device is more intelligent, and the user is improved. Experience.

It should be understood that the description of technical features, technical solutions, or similar language in this embodiment does not imply that all features can be realized in any single embodiment. The technical features and technical solutions described in this embodiment can also be combined in any suitable manner.

This embodiment also provides another interface display method. In this interface display method, the electronic device may divide the GUI currently displayed on the touch screen into M sub-interfaces (M is an integer greater than or equal to 2). In some embodiments, the electronic device may project multiple sub-interfaces out of the M sub-interfaces into multiple projection areas of the electronic device, respectively. The sizes and shapes of the plurality of projection areas may be the same or different. Exemplarily, the electronic device may display a first target interface in the first projection area, the first target interface is superimposed and displayed on the GUI, and the content of the first target interface and the first sub-interface among the M sub-interfaces The content of is the same; the second target interface is displayed in the second projection area, the second target interface is superimposed on the GUI, and the content of the second target interface is the same as the content of the second sub-interface among the M sub-interfaces . In some other embodiments, the electronic device projects the controls included in the multiple sub-interfaces among the M sub-interfaces respectively on multiple projection areas of the electronic device. Exemplarily, the electronic device may display controls included in the first target interface in the projection area, and the controls included in the first target interface are superimposed and displayed on the GUI, and the content of the first target interface and the M sub-interfaces The content of the first sub-interface is the same; the controls included in the second target interface are displayed in the second projection area, and the controls included in the second target interface are superimposed and displayed on the GUI, and the The content is the same as that of the second sub-interface among the M sub-interfaces.

The multiple projection areas may be located on the same side of the touch screen of the electronic device, or may be located on different sides of the touch screen of the electronic device. For example, the electronic device may project two of the M sub-interfaces into two projection areas of the electronic device, and the two projection areas may be located on the same side of the touch screen of the electronic device, such as the lower left corner or the lower right corner of the touch screen. The two projection areas may also be located on different sides of the touch screen of the electronic device, for example, one of the projection areas is located at the lower left corner of the touch screen, and the other projection area is located at the lower right corner of the touch screen.

For example, as shown in FIG. 23, the electronic device may divide a GUI currently displayed on the touch screen, such as WeChat interface 2301, into six sub-interfaces, including sub-interface 1 (G1) and sub-interface 2 (G2). The electronic device may project the controls included in the sub-interface 1 (G1) into the first projection area 2302 of the touch screen, and project the controls included in the sub-interface 2 (G2) into the second projection area 2303 of the touch screen.
