Abstract

In a user interface method, system and device in a multitasking environment, all applications being executed are displayed. Movement between applications being displayed and selection of the applications can be performed in response to a request from a user, such that the user can easily use applications being executed currently. Currently selected applications do not block other applications, and the user is able to simultaneously view all applications. The sizes and positions of the display areas assigned to the applications are determined based on stored feature values of each respective application, the entire display screen area being partitioned based on the feature values. The system comprises a set-top box and a user terminal, or a controller and a storage unit.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a user interface method, system and device in a multitasking environment. Background technique [0002] In all those devices that perform actions in response to user requests, the user interface is integral. In order to improve user convenience, a user interface has been developed so far. This user interface will display the user input information and the corresponding operating status on the display device of the device, so that the user can immediately see the selection he made and the corresponding result. That is to say, every time the user makes a specific choice, the user interface will display a corresponding screen on the display device. [0003] However, the user interface can only display one functional screen at a time. Correspondingly, it is a segmented screen for displaying several contents. However, such a screen is only a segmented screen. [0004] This setup is somewhat inconvenient since only one f...
