Problems solved by technology

Its advantage is that the software is ever-changing, which brings mystery and fun to users, but the disadvantages are also very obvious.
First of all, because it is necessary to generate a set of pictures and master a series of rules to make the new interface harmonious and usable, this is not something ordinary users can do. They must turn to professional artists, which essentially deprives users of the right to create their own interface ;Secondly, the system overhead is high, so it is not suitable for embedded devices with valuable storage space; Thirdly, the interface style changes too much, which will destroy the user's operating habits
Because of the above shortcomings, although the skinnable solution has received some response at the beginning, it is not accepted by ordinary users from the practice of several years.

Embodiment 1

[0039] Please refer to figure 1 , the present invention automatically adjusts the interface style method according to the background image, and its manipulation steps are as follows:

[0040] (1) First, provide the user with a solution to automatically adjust the interface style according to the background image, but allow the user to disable this function.

[0041] (2) If this function is enabled, immediately after the user changes the background image, process A uniformly intercepts n samples S on the background image 1 to S n , which is stored in the background image sample sequence, each sample is a small part of the image background, which can be a rectangle or other shapes.

[0042] (3) Process B performs feature analysis on the samples in the background image sample sequence one by one. The features mentioned here mainly include color values ​​(RGB data, CYMK data. The CYMK color coding scheme uses four basic tones of cyan (Cyan), magenta (Magenta), yellow (Yellow) a...

Embodiment 2

[0065] Embodiment 2: Project: "Lenovo Portable Home 2.0"

[0066] Implementation process:

[0067] 1. Make sure to select the following characteristic parameters:

[0068] R - red channel value

[0069] G——Green channel value

[0070] B - blue channel value

[0071] E - Hue

[0072] S - Saturation

[0073] L - Brightness

[0074] Therefore, the eigenvector K=(R, G, B, E, S, L). Algorithms for obtaining the above characteristic parameters from a certain pixel point are known algorithms, which will not be described below.

[0075] 2. Evenly intercept 64 pixels from the 240×320 screen to form the sample space S 1 -S 64 .

[0076] 3. Calculate the value of the feature vector K for each pixel, and obtain 64 feature vectors, which are denoted as

[0077] K 1 , K 2 , K 3 ,...,K 64

[0078] where each vector is an (R, G, B, E, S, L) tuple with six components.

[0079] 4. For each component, find the average value of the component in the 64 vectors to form K j0 ...

Abstract

The present invention relates to interface control technology of software product, and the method of the present invention allows user to select product background picture freely. According to the background picture hue and brightness feature analysis, interface elements and function control part style are selected automatically, so that the interface elements and function control parts can collocated harmonically with the background. The said method may be used widely in various product software platforms to make the software product high in use performance, beautiful in interface and friendly.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to software product interface manipulation technology. Background technique [0002] With the advancement of software technology, application software products are increasingly emphasizing the beauty and friendliness of the GUI interface in order to improve the usability of the product. The fixed and monotonous appearance style of traditional software is being replaced by a flexible and customizable appearance style. We can divide the software's interface into two distinct components: background and interface controls. The so-called background refers to the non-functional part of the software interface; and interface controls usually have certain event response functions and are the objects of user operations. Typical examples include menus, window title bars, icon buttons, and so on. According to this distinction, there are currently two popular interface beautification schemes: [0003] 1) Change the background: that is, the ...
