User interface generation method

Abstract

The invention discloses a user interface generation method, which comprises the following steps of: 1, generating a base interface preview window; 2, setting window attribute, and updating preview window display according to the set window attribute; 3, adding controls on the updated base interface preview window in a control tree mode; 4, setting control attribute, dynamically updating the control display according to the set control attribute, and saving configuration information; 5, setting a window clipping mask, and clipping the window according to the set window clipping mask; and 6, generating a preview window of a target user interface, saving a configuration file of the target user interface, generating a window class according to the configuration file, and adding the service logic of a window interface. In the method, an executable software interface can be generated through control drag, attribute setting and other operation by a product designer or an interface developer without direct encoding, the controls contained in the interface generation process are layered according to a tree structure so as to facilitate relationship management among the controls.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of software interface and human-computer interaction, in particular to a method for generating a user interface. Background technique [0002] A software interface, also known as a software user interface, user interface, or computer program user interface, is a tool for computer programs to communicate with users. The user communicates instructions to the computer program through the interface, and the computer program communicates the results of program operation and other information to the user through the interface. In a personal computer, since the user mainly uses the computer for office work or entertainment, the user experience of the software interface occupies a very important position in the software. [0003] The user interface of personal computer has changed from the command line to the image interface, and people have higher and higher requirements for the display effect and operability of t...

Problems solved by technology

On the one hand, it will be very difficult to personalize the interface (skinning, changing the layout of controls, etc.) due to the use of standard controls; on the other hand, because the self-drawing technology provided by Windows controls is too limited, there is basically no transparency And other effect support, it is very time-consuming and labor-intensive to define the special effects displayed by some controls

[0004] The traditional use of MFC / WTL for interface development is difficult to realize the special effects of the interface. In addition to the cumbersome steps and the inability to intuitively see the interface effect during the coding process, the interface development by writing code through the custom interface library also affects the development speed
