Detailed ways

The embodiments of the present application are described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals indicate the same or similar elements or elements with the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the drawings are exemplary, and are intended to explain the present application, but should not be understood as a limitation to the present application.

In the related technology, as shown in Figure 1, different folders are used to manage a variety of applications, so that applications can be found quickly. Each folder contains multiple application icons. When there are many applications, users need to constantly Open and close folders to find the application it intends to use. Repeatedly opening and closing folders is inefficient, and does not fundamentally solve the problem of low efficiency in finding applications.

The following describes the folder interface switching method and device according to the embodiments of the present application with reference to the accompanying drawings. Among them, the folder interface mentioned in the embodiment of the present application is an interface of a collection of columns containing at least one application icon displayed on the display screen of a terminal device such as a mobile phone.

Specifically, FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a folder interface switching method according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 2, the method includes:

Step 101: On the display screen, divide a first display area and a second display area.

Specifically, on the display screen, two display areas are divided into a first display area and a second display area. Wherein, the first display area is used to subsequently display application icons contained in the current folder, and the second display area is used to display application icons contained in other folders.

It should be noted that in different application scenarios, the ways to divide the first display area and the second display area are different. Examples are as follows:

Example 1:

In this example, the first standard display area and the second standard display area are preset. The first standard display area and the second standard display area can be divided by the system according to the screen area, which can be understood as the two default displays of the system. Area, and then, obtain the number of application icons displayed in the current folder each time, and calculate the number and the preset number of differences, where the preset number is calibrated based on a large amount of experimental data, suitable for the first standard display The number of areas, when the preset number of application icons are displayed in the first standard display area, the user can clearly understand the content of the preset number of application icons. Therefore, it is easy to understand that the greater the difference between the above numbers Large, it means that the number of application icons displayed in the current folder each time is large. If they are all displayed in the first display area, it may cause the problem of unclear display. Therefore, the area of the first display area needs to be enlarged, and vice versa. If the above-mentioned number difference is smaller, it means that the number of application icons displayed in the current folder each time is smaller. Therefore, it can be considered to reduce the area of the first display area so that the display content in the second display area can be Get a more adequate display area.

Specifically, compare whether the quantity difference is greater than zero, and if it is less than zero, determine the area reduction value corresponding to the absolute value of the difference, and then delete the area corresponding to the area reduction value in the first standard display area to obtain the first standard display area. For a display area, the second display area is acquired according to the area corresponding to the area reduction value and the area corresponding to the second standard display area.

Among them, in the actual implementation process, the way of deleting the area corresponding to the area reduction value in the first standard display area may be different according to different scenes. In some possible examples, when the first display area and the second display area The area is laid out in Figure 3-1, as shown in Figure 3-2. When the area A is deleted from the first display area, it can be reduced according to the same display shape of the first display area and the second display area, so that the second display area In other possible examples, as shown in Figure 3-3, when area A is deleted from the first display area, the user can determine the area selected by the user according to the touch trajectory of the user’s personal input, and prompt the user to select the area Shape, in the area selected by the user, determine the area corresponding to the area reduction value corresponding to the shape of the area selected by the user. Assuming that as shown in Figure 3-3, after the user selects the area, the determined area shape is a triangle. In the area B, a triangle with an area of A is determined, or a triangular area with the center of the area B as the center is determined, so that the second display area expands the corresponding triangular area.

Similarly, when the difference is greater than or equal to zero, determine the area increase value corresponding to the absolute value of the difference, delete the area corresponding to the area increase value in the second standard display area, and obtain the second display area, corresponding to the area increase value The area corresponding to the first standard display area is obtained, and the first display area is acquired. Wherein, the method of determining the area corresponding to the area increase value in the second display area is the same as the method of determining the area corresponding to the area reduction value in the first display area mentioned above, and will not be repeated here. In this example, , In order to avoid infinite reduction of the area reduction value, or infinite increase of the area increase value, the corresponding area reduction value or area increase value is not set for each absolute value of the difference, but different differences are designed in advance The absolute value range of the value corresponds to the corresponding area reduction value or area increase value. For example, taking the area increase value as an example, when the absolute value of the difference is less than a, the area increase value corresponds to A, When the absolute value of the difference is greater than or equal to a, the area increase value is B and so on.

Example 2:

In this example, multiple display modes can be set in advance. Each display mode includes the combination of shapes and sizes of the first display area and the second display area. Different display modes are displayed on the upper display, and the first display area and the second display area are determined according to the display mode selected by the user.

Step 102: Display application icons contained in the current folder in the first display area.

Specifically, the application icons contained in the current folder are displayed in the first display area. The application icons may be the icons of some applications contained in the current folder, that is, when the current folder contains more application icons of some applications, they are all at once. The display causes the display to be unclear. In this embodiment, the maximum number of application icons displayed on the interface of the current folder at a time is specified. The display order of the application is allocated, and when the interface of the current folder is opened according to the display order, the application icons of the partial applications in the upper order are displayed according to the prescribed maximum number of application icons displayed at a time. Of course, when the application icons of some applications contained in the current folder are few, the first display area may display all the application icons contained in the current folder.

Step 103: Display folder thumbnails of at least one folder in other folders in the second display area.

Specifically, folder thumbnails of at least one folder in other folders are displayed in the second display area, where the folder thumbnails include application icon thumbnails of at least part of the applications contained in the corresponding folder, so that, based on the second With the folder thumbnails in the display area, the user can know the applications contained in other folders at a glance, which is convenient for quickly determining which folder the user wants to open the application under.

It should be noted that, in the above embodiment, the manner of displaying folder thumbnails of other folders in the second display area may be based on the number of application icon thumbnails displayed in the folder thumbnails at a time and the size of the second display area. The area is determined. The smaller the number of application icons displayed in the folder thumbnails each time and the larger the area of the second display area, the greater the number of thumbnails of the displayed folder, and vice versa, the number of displayed folder thumbnails few.

In the actual execution process, it is preferable to display the thumbnails of all application icons contained in other folders in the folder thumbnails, so that the user can know the application icons contained in other folders at a glance. When the number of applications contained in folder thumbnails is relatively large relative to the area of the second display area, even if the second display area only displays one folder thumbnail, it is difficult to display them all at once. As shown in Figure 5, you can Determine the number of application icon thumbnails displayed by the corresponding folder thumbnail B each time according to the area of the second display area, and switch the same folder B when the user performs a preset trigger operation on the folder thumbnail B The next batch of application icon thumbnails below are displayed, so that the application icon thumbnails can be switched and displayed only on the folder thumbnail B in the second display area.

Step 104: In response to a trigger operation on the first display area or the second display area, switch to display the folder interface on the display screen.

Specifically, the user can perform a trigger operation on the first display area or the second display area, and the display screen displays the trigger operation to switch the folder interface on the display screen. The switch display always occurs in the first display area and the second display. Area, no need for users to open and close related folders, easy to operate.

In an embodiment of the present application, the trigger operation is the first trigger operation in the first display area, and the preset first trigger operation corresponds to the switching of the current folder interface, which can be a left-right sliding operation, etc. After the user triggers the operation in the first display area, the display content in the first display area is updated to the application icons contained in the first folder in the other folders, where the updated display of other folders may be the second display The folder corresponding to the first folder thumbnail displayed in the area can also be any folder in other folders, and there is no restriction here.

For example, as shown in FIG. 6, when the current folder is folder A, if it is detected that the user performs a rightward sliding operation on the first display area, the display content of the first display area is updated and displayed as folder B Application icons in. Therefore, without exiting the current interface and opening folder B, the interface switching of the folders can be completed, and the user can more intuitively observe the applications contained in other folders.

In this embodiment, it can also be determined whether the trigger operation is a preset second trigger operation, where the second trigger operation can be understood as an up and down sliding operation, etc., if it is a second trigger operation, it will be determined according to the content contained in the current folder. Other application icons update the application icons in the first display area, that is, select the next batch of application icons from other application icons contained in the current folder to update and display them in the current first display area. The number of application icons can be determined according to the length of the trigger track of the user's trigger operation. Here, if the application icons in the current first display area are all application icons contained in the current folder, the display is not switched.

For example, as shown in Figure 7, when the first display area currently displays application icons 1-6 contained in the current folder, if it is detected that the length of the user's up and down sliding track is a, then it is determined to update the next The application icons of the batch are 7-12, so that the application icons 7-12 are updated and displayed in the first display area.

In an embodiment of the present application, in order to further improve the switching flexibility of the folder interface in the present application, the display content may also be switched according to the trigger operation of the second display area.

Specifically, the user's trigger operation in the second display area can be detected, and it can be determined whether the trigger operation is a preset third trigger operation. The folder thumbnails of the remaining undisplayed folders in other folders, update the folder thumbnails in the second display area. That is, the folder thumbnails in the second display area are switched according to the force of the left and right sliding.

For example, as shown in FIG. 8, when a user's horizontal sliding operation on the second display area is detected, according to the strength of the sliding operation, the current folder thumbnails B1-B4 in the second display area are switched and displayed For B5-B8.

In some possible examples, the folder thumbnails in the above embodiments also support the trigger switching operation, that is, if it is detected that the user's trigger operation in the second display area is a trigger operation on the folder thumbnail of the second folder , Such as a click operation, the application icon in the first display area is updated to the application icon corresponding to the folder thumbnail of the second folder. As a result, the user does not need to exit the current folder interface to switch the folder interface.

For example, as shown in FIG. 9, when a user's click operation on the folder thumbnail B2 in the second display area is detected, the interface A for the current folder displayed in the first display area is switched and displayed as a file Folder thumbnail B2 corresponds to the application icon, where the folder thumbnail in the second display area may not change, or the folder thumbnail B2 may be switched to the thumbnail of the current folder.

In summary, in the folder interface switching method of the embodiment of the present application, the first display area and the second display area are divided on the display screen, the application icons contained in the current folder are displayed in the first display area, and the application icons contained in the current folder are displayed in the second display area. The folder thumbnail of at least one folder in the other folders further responds to the user's trigger operation on the first display area or the second display area, and switches the display of the folder interface on the display screen according to the trigger operation. Thus, on the one hand, the preview service of applications contained in other folders can be provided in the form of folder thumbnails on the current folder interface, so that users can intuitively understand the applications contained in other folders. On the other hand, It is possible to switch the application icons contained in the folder on the current folder interface, without opening and closing the folder operation, which improves the efficiency of the user's selection of applications.
