As shown in Figure 1, it is a schematic flow chart of an optional desktop editing method provided by the embodiment of the present application. The method includes the following steps:

Step 101, receiving a first input to a desktop.

The embodiment of the present application can be applied to a terminal, specifically a mobile terminal or a non-mobile terminal. Exemplary, the mobile terminal can be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, a palmtop computer, a vehicle electronic device, a wearable device, an ultra-mobile personal computer (ultra-mobile personal computer, UMPC), a netbook or a personal digital assistant (personal digital assistant) , PDA), etc., the non-mobile terminal can be a server, a network attached storage (Network Attached Storage, NAS), a personal computer (personal computer, PC), a television (television, TV), a teller machine or a self-service machine, etc., the embodiment of the present application Not specifically limited.

The desktop in this embodiment of the present application is the desktop of the system running on the terminal. The desktop may include icons, desktop wallpaper, and the like. The icon may be an icon of application software installed by a user, or an icon of a system preset application, or an icon of a component of a certain application, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application. FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of an interface of an optional desktop.

The desktop can include multiple pages, and each page can be divided into multiple grids. For example, as shown in FIG. ) grids.

The grid division method of multiple pages can be consistent. Each page can contain and display at least one icon, and each icon occupies at least one grid on the page. For example, as shown in FIG. grid. The size of the grid occupied by the icon can be specifically set based on icon preset settings or edited by the user.

The first input received is the input received on the desktop, and the hardware module receiving the input can be the touch screen of the terminal (which can receive input from media such as fingers and stylus pens), mouse, keyboard, and camera (which can receive input from gestures, etc.) , microphone (can receive voice input), etc. The first input can be a pre-specified input, for example, the first input can be the user pinching two fingers on the desktop, or the first input can be the option that the user clicks in the settings to enter the editing state, etc., the implementation of this application Examples are not limited to this.

Step 102, in response to the first input, display a vacant grid identifier.

The desktop is pre-divided into multiple grids, and each icon on the desktop occupies at least one grid. Here, the vacancy grid mark is used to indicate the position of the vacancy grid that is not occupied by icons on the desktop. An example interface schematic diagram is shown in Figure 3. The vacancy grid mark is a solid box with a lighter color, such as the vacancy grid Grid mark 301.

That is, in order to facilitate the user to view the remaining grid space on the desktop more intuitively, after receiving the first input, the vacant grid mark can be displayed, so that the user can judge the space where the icon is to be placed according to the vacant grid mark Is it enough.

The desktop editing method provided in the embodiment of the present application, after receiving the first input to the desktop, displays a vacant grid mark indicating that it is not occupied by icons on the desktop, so that the user can view the remaining grid positions on the desktop, which is convenient. Editing the icons on the desktop improves the efficiency of editing the desktop, and solves the technical problem of low efficiency of the desktop editing mode in the related art.

In one example, the desktop may include a plurality of pages, the plurality of pages including the currently displayed first page, after receiving the first input to the desktop, the first page may also be reduced, and the vacant page may be vacated after the first page is reduced In the area, thumbnails of multiple pages are displayed, wherein each thumbnail of a page includes a vacancy grid identifier of a corresponding page.

An example interface diagram is shown in Figure 4. Compared with Figure 2, the currently displayed first page is reduced, and thumbnails of all pages are displayed in the vacant area below. The vacant grid marks in the thumbnails can be identified by It is represented by a solid box with a lighter color, such as the vacant grid mark 401.

By displaying thumbnails of multiple pages and displaying vacant grid marks in the thumbnails, the distribution of thumbnails of all pages on the desktop can be displayed on the current interface, thereby facilitating the user to plan the arrangement of icons.

In an optional implementation, the thumbnail of each page may also include the existing icon identification of the corresponding page, as shown in Figure 4, the existing icon identification is used to indicate the position of the icon on the corresponding page, in this case Next, after displaying the thumbnails of a plurality of pages, if a second input to the target icon in the first page is received, then in response to the second input, an existing The display status of the icon identification is updated, and the updated display status of the existing icon identification is used to indicate that the corresponding icon is selected.

Wherein, the second input is used to indicate the selection of the target icon, the target icon is the selected icon, and there may be one or more target icons. The second input may be click, box selection, etc., which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.

To update the display state of the existing icon logo corresponding to the target icon on the thumbnail, you can highlight the icon display frame, or change the color of the icon display frame, or use some animations (such as shaking). The embodiment does not limit this. In this way, it is convenient for the user to check the selection status of the icon in the thumbnail, thereby facilitating the user to plan the arrangement of the icons.

Exemplarily, as shown in FIG. 4 , the icon 402 and the icon 403 on the first page currently displayed are selected, and in the thumbnail corresponding to the page, the icon 402 and the icon 403 respectively correspond to the existing icon identification 404 and the existing The existing icon mark 405 indicates that it is selected by changing its color, and is distinguished from the existing icon marks of other unselected icons.

In another optional implementation manner, after displaying the vacancy grid mark, the following steps may also be included:

Step 1031, receiving a third input for selecting a plurality of icons on the desktop.

Step 1032, select multiple icons in response to the third input.

That is, the third input is an input for selecting a plurality of icons. Optionally, the third input may be the same or similar input operation mode as the second input, which will not be repeated here.

Step 1033, receiving a fourth input on the first icon in the plurality of icons.

Step 1034, in response to the fourth input, control other icons to be collected under the first icon according to the selection sequence of the third input, wherein the other icons are icons other than the first icon among the plurality of icons.

After a plurality of icons are selected, if a fourth input to the first icon among the plurality of icons is received, an animation in which other icons fly under the first icon in the selected order at that time may be displayed. The fourth input is an input in an operation manner different from that of the third input. Exemplarily, the fourth input may be a long press on the first icon.

Further, after controlling other icons to be collected under the first icon according to the selection sequence of the third input, the following steps may also be included:

Step 1035, receiving a fifth input of dragging the first icon and releasing it at the first position;

Step 1036, in response to the fifth input, control the first icon to be placed at the first position, and control other icons to be placed sequentially after the first position according to the selection sequence of the third input.

Wherein, the fifth input is an input for instructing to move a plurality of icons selected by the third input. Since there are multiple icons, in the case of a small contact area (such as finger touch or mouse click), usually only one of the icons can be selected as a representative of all icons for dragging.

Optionally, the fourth input and the fifth input may be consecutive inputs. For example, the fourth input is to press and hold the first icon without releasing it, and the fifth input is to drag the first icon without releasing the fourth input. icon and release. Dragging the target icon is an operation of dragging the target icon without releasing the target icon (for example, the non-releasing operation may be operations such as not releasing the mouse or lifting the finger on the touch screen).

Optionally, the first position can be a position on other pages, that is, the user can select one or more icons on the first page, drag them to the second page and then release them, thereby instructing to move the selected icons to the second page. page. Further, for the convenience of user operation, the user may drag the target icon into the thumbnail of the second page to indicate moving to the second page. When the target icon is dragged to the thumbnail of the second page, the first page currently displayed on the desktop can be switched to display the second page, so as to facilitate the user to indicate the specific position of the first position on the second page. Optionally, after instructing to place the target icon at the first position on the second page, an animation of the target icon moving to the second page may also be displayed to improve user experience and visually facilitate the user to confirm the movement of the target icon.

After receiving the fifth input, the first icon is placed at the first position, and the other icons are placed sequentially after the first position. Here, the grid division on the desktop can have a preset order, for example, all the grids on the desktop are sorted from left to right and then from top to bottom, then the latter position is the position pointing to the right, or , when there is no grid space left on the right side, the latter position can refer to the position of the first column of the next row.

Optionally, if it is detected that the remaining grid space of the first position is not enough to place the next icon, for example, the first icon is an icon occupying more than one grid, and the row/column of the first position is not enough to place the next icon The first icon can vacate the corresponding position and continue to try the next position.

For example, the grid on the right can be tried, and if there is no grid on the right, the grid on the next row can be tried. Specifically, the first position may refer to a grid space that starts from the grid specified by the user and extends rightward and downward to accommodate the first icon. For example, if the grid is divided into 4 (columns)*7 (rows), and the user specifies a grid in row 3 and column 4, then if the first icon is an icon occupying a grid of 2 (rows)*2 (columns) , then, since there is no grid to the right of the fourth column, the first icon cannot be accommodated, and the next position can be tried, that is, 2 (rows)*2 to the right and downward starting from the first column of the fourth row (column) grid.

Optionally, when placing multiple icons, one strategy is not to change the distribution of the original icons on the page, that is, not to occupy the grid where the original icons are located; another strategy is to squeeze the original icons After the plurality of icons, that is, the original icons are arranged to the right, and the plurality of icons are inserted between the first position and the first icon after the first position.

Optionally, if the grid after the first position (or the unoccupied grid) cannot accommodate multiple icons, a prompt may be displayed to remind the user that there is not enough space, for example, a toast prompt pops up (toast prompt , a message prompt mechanism of the Android system, the prompt box will automatically disappear after a short period of time). And can keep multiple icons in their original positions.

In an optional implementation manner, after receiving the first input to the desktop, in the case of displaying thumbnails of multiple pages, the thumbnails of each page may include the existing icon identification of the corresponding page, as shown in FIG. 4 , the existing icon mark is used to indicate the position of the icon on the corresponding page. In this way, after receiving the fourth input of the first icon among the plurality of icons, it is also possible to control the existing icon identifications corresponding to other icons in the thumbnail of the first page to be collected in the corresponding icon of the first icon according to the selection sequence of the third input. under the existing icon logo.

That is to say, in the case that the displayed thumbnail includes the existing icon logo, in addition to displaying the effect of other icons being collected under the first icon on the page where multiple icons are selected, other icons can also be displayed in the thumbnail The existing icon identifications of the first icon are collected in order under the existing icon identifications of the first icon, which is convenient for the user to check the editing status of the current icon from a macro perspective.

Optionally, the first input may also instruct the desktop to enter the editing state. After receiving the first input, the desktop enters the editing state, allowing editing of icons on the desktop, including moving, resizing, deleting, and adding. Optionally, when the desktop is controlled to enter the editing state, specifically, the display area of the first page may be reduced, and then a plurality of thumbnails may be displayed outside the display area of the first page. This prevents the thumbnails from covering the first page currently displayed. Exemplarily, as shown in Figure 4, it is a schematic diagram of an optional interface for the desktop to enter the editing state, the display area of the first page is reduced from the display area shown in Figure 2 to the display area shown in Figure 4, and multiple thumbnails Shows the area below that is freed from the interface after zooming out.

Optionally, the currently displayed page (the first page) can be highlighted in the thumbnail, as shown in Figure 4, the currently displayed first page is the second page sorted, in the thumbnail, the first page The corresponding second thumbnail can be distinguished from thumbnails of other pages by different colors.

Optionally, in the thumbnail corresponding to each page, existing icon marks and vacant icon marks may be displayed through simplified marks. Compared with the technical solution in which thumbnails are displayed in the form of thumbnail photos of the corresponding pages, by displaying schematic logos in the thumbnails, it is possible to reduce the complexity of the screen while showing the existing icons and vacant icons on the corresponding page , compared with directly displaying thumbnail photos, displaying a schematic logo can reduce the burden on the image processor in the terminal.

In one of the optional implementation manners, after the target icon is selected, the state of the check box of the icon can also be changed. As shown in FIG. 4, after receiving the first input, a check box can be displayed on the upper right corner of each existing icon. After the user selects the icon 402 and icon 403, the check box in the upper right corner shows a solid state, to be consistent with The hollow check box is distinguished by the unchecked icon.

Optionally, in some implementations of the embodiments of the present application, the sorting of all pages can be adjusted by operating multiple thumbnails displayed on the desktop, for example, by clicking or holding down a thumbnail and dragging , to switch the order of the thumbnails, so as to quickly switch the order of the corresponding pages. In this way, it is convenient for the user to operate the display sequence of the entire page, without the user needing to transfer the icons on the page one by one.

In addition, after the user finishes editing the desktop, the editing state can be exited through a corresponding input. Exemplarily, the user can click on any blank space on the desktop (an area without icons), or use two fingers to perform an outward pinching gesture on the touch screen, thereby exiting the desktop editing state.
