Method for turning screen display of equipment to gravity direction through shaking

Abstract

The invention provides a method for turning the screen display of equipment to a gravity direction through shaking. The method comprises the steps of: acquiring a service related to a current equipment sensor by calling an operation system when a specific application program is accessed; judging whether the equipment comprises an acceleration sensor and a gravity sensor; acquiring data output by the acceleration sensor, and judging whether a user carries out an effective screen shaking action according to the acquired acceleration time and acceleration value; acquiring data output by the gravity sensor, comparing a gravity direction reported by the gravity sensor and a current screen display direction, and rotating the screen display to the gravity direction when the gravity direction and the current screen display direction are inconsistent; and when the program is quit or restarted, setting the screen display direction according to system setup or default configuration of the program per se. No matter what settings are made to a system direction by the user, the user can realize temporary gravity-oriented screen turning operation by shaking the equipment and can fix the screen so as to ensure that the requirement of the user is met.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for changing the screen display direction of a hand-held device, in particular to a method for realizing the rotation of the screen display of the device to the direction of gravity by shaking the device in a program. Background technique [0002] At present, mobile phones (or other mobile computing devices such as tablets) often have gravity sensing devices, so that these devices can sense the vertical rotation angle of the screen, and can automatically rotate the content displayed on the screen synchronously. This automatic rotation screen content setting is generally the factory setting of these devices. At the same time, device manufacturers have also noticed that sometimes users want the orientation of the screen to be fixed and not rotate in the direction detected by the gravity sensor. The reason is that most of the viewing habits of some users are fixed to a certain orientation to achieve some kind of convenie...

[0003] Now, the usual practice of application software is to provide buttons or menus to rotate the screen on the program interface, but this requires space on the interface, and it is possible that this function cannot be discovered by users in time because there are already many function buttons or menus.

[0004] Or, when the device is rotated, a button pops up at a conspicuous position on the screen to prompt the user to press it to turn the screen. This not only blocks the user's sight, but it may not be necessary for the user to turn the screen in all cases. Always popping up such a button will cause problems. intrusive to the user
