Terminal and method for managing multiple windows

Abstract

An embodiment of the invention discloses a method for managing multiple windows. The method includes displaying at least two windows in a display interface according to window attribute information of the windows; receiving a window edit instruction, which is transmitted from a user, for a target window; and executing edit operation corresponding to the window edit instruction for the target window according to the window edit instruction and keeping a display position level of the target window on the display interface unchanged. The window attribute information contains a window identity and window level attributes. The window edit instruction contains the window identity of the target window. The embodiment of the invention further discloses a terminal. The method and the terminal have the advantages that the multiple windows can be displayed on the display interface according to window attribute information, when the target window is edited, the display position level of the target window on the display interface is unchanged, a level relation among the multiple windows can be effectively managed, and clear display position levels of the various windows on the display interface are kept.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of display technology, in particular to a terminal and a multi-window management method. Background technique [0002] With the development of the display industry, display technologies with high image quality and high presence, interactive multi-functional integration, energy saving and consumption reduction, and health and environmental protection are constantly developing. Multiple windows can be displayed in terminals such as computers and TVs. When one of the windows is selected, the window will be displayed on the top layer and cover the display layer of other windows. When the user edits any window, the display layer of each window will change. Changes, for example, the computer display interface shows window 1, window 2, window 3 and window 4, wherein, window 1 is at the topmost layer, window 2 is moved down one level under window 1, window 3 is moved down one level under window 2, and window 4 is at the bott...

Multiple windows can be displayed in terminals such as computers and TVs. When one of the windows is selected, the window will be displayed on the top layer and cover the display layer of other windows. When the user edits any window, the display layer of each window will change. Changes, for example, the computer display interface shows window 1, window 2, window 3 and window 4, wherein, window 1 is at the topmost layer, window 2 is moved down one level under window 1, window 3 is moved down one level under window 2, and window 4 is at the bottom layer. When window 4 is refreshed, window 4 is at the top layer, window 1 is at the second layer, window 2 is at the third layer, and window 3 is at the bottom layer. Specifically, when the user uses window 1 to watch a movie, use window 1 When chatting with window 3 in instant messaging, when the user selects or drags window 2 or window 3, there is no guarantee that window 1 will always be displayed on the top layer, which may easily cause confusion in the multi-window display hierarchy, and fail to clearly control multiple windows Fixed hierarchical relationship between
