[0051] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the drawings, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present invention. Instead, they are merely examples of devices and methods consistent with some aspects of the present invention as detailed in the appended claims.

[0052] The present disclosure provides a method for extracting content, which is applied to a terminal. The content includes text and / or pictures, etc. In the extracting method, after the note application is started, there is no need to enter the extracting mode. The terminal can automatically determine whether the target content that can be extracted is included within the set time before the start time of the note application. If it is included, the target content will be extracted to the target extract note according to the first set condition. The extracting method realizes the extraction of the content before the note application is started to the target extract note, that is, it realizes the extraction of the content before the excerpt mode is started to the target extract note, so that the content that can be extracted by the note application is more comprehensive and more convenient to use, thereby improving the user experience.

[0053] In an exemplary embodiment, a method for extracting content is provided, referring to Figure 1 As shown, the extraction method includes:

[0054] S110, receiving a control instruction to start a note application, and starting the note application;

[0055] S120, determining that the note application has target content that can be extracted within a set time period before the start time;

[0056] S130: Extract the target content into the target extraction note according to the first set condition.

[0057] In step S110, a note application is pre-installed in the terminal, and the name of the note application may be "notes", "notes", "extract notes", "extract notes", etc. When the terminal receives a control instruction to start the note application, the note application will be started. The control instruction can be input to the terminal by the user clicking the icon of the note application.

[0058] In step S120, the set duration can be preset in the terminal by existing technology. For example, the set duration is set when the terminal leaves the factory. For another example, the user sets the set duration by himself. No further details are given here.

[0059] In this method, after the sticky note application is started, its start time is determined, and then the target time period to be detected is determined according to the set duration. After the target time period to be detected is determined, it is determined whether the target time period includes target content that can be extracted. Among them, the target content includes text content and image content, the text content may include a website, the image content may include static images and dynamic images, and the dynamic images are, for example, GIF format images (GIF stands for Graphics Interchange Format, which can be translated as Graphics Interchange Format).

[0060] In the method, if it is determined that the target content that can be extracted is included within the set time before the start time of the note application, the target content is extracted into the target extraction note according to the first set condition. The target extraction note can be a document, such as a text document, a Word document, etc.

[0061] Among them, the first setting condition includes at least one of the following four rules.

[0062] Rule 1: Extract the target content in the chronological order of its production.

[0063] So that users can clearly understand the order in which the target content is produced.

[0064] For example, the target content includes content A, content B and content C, wherein content A was generated at 8:00, content B was generated at 8:20, and content C was generated at 9:00. The target content is extracted in the order of content A, content B and content C. When viewing the target extraction note, the target content is in the order of content A, content B and content C.

[0065] Rule 2: Mark each target content extracted into the target extract note.

[0066] In order to facilitate users to distinguish the scope of each target content. Among them, the mark can include a time mark and / or a sequence number mark, and the time mark can be used to mark the time when the corresponding target content is generated.

[0067] For example, the mark includes both a time mark and a sequence mark. The target content includes content A, content B, and content C, wherein content A is generated at 8:00, content B is generated at 8:20, and content C is generated at 9:00. After the target content is extracted into the target extraction note in the order of content A, content B, and content C, when the target extraction note is viewed, the corresponding time mark and sequence mark are displayed at the starting position of each target content.

[0068] Rule 3: When the target content includes picture content, insert the picture into the target excerpt note.

[0069] This allows the user to clearly understand the number of pictures added to the terminal and the specific contents of the pictures within the set time period before the memo application is started.

[0070] The specific method of inserting the picture and the method of displaying the target excerpt note can be achieved through existing technologies and will not be described in detail here.

[0071] Rule 4: In the goal excerpt note, there is a set distance between each goal content.

[0072] In order to make it easier for users to distinguish different target contents more clearly. The set distance can be set by existing technologies, which will not be described in detail here. For example, the set distance can be set by the user.

[0073] In order to understand this method more clearly, a specific example is given below to introduce it.

[0074] refer to Figure 2 As shown, example:

[0075] If the user starts the note application in the mobile phone at 10:20, the start time of the note application is determined to be 10.20. If the time length is set to 3 hours, the target time period to be detected can be determined to be 7:20 to 10:20.

[0076] After testing, it is determined whether the following target contents are included between 7:20 and 10:20: Content A, Content B and Content C, among which Content A is text content, which is generated at 8:00, Content B is picture content, which is generated at 8:20, and Content C is text content, which is generated at 9:00.

[0077] The target content is extracted in the order of content A, content B and content C, and the above target content is extracted to the target extraction note. When viewing the target extraction note, the corresponding time mark and sequence number mark are displayed at the beginning of each target content, and content B is extracted in an inserted manner, and the adjacent target contents are separated by a set distance.

[0078] This excerpting method realizes excerpting the content before the note application is started to the target excerpt note, that is, it realizes excerpting the content before the excerpt mode is started to the target excerpt note, making the content that can be excerpted by the note application more comprehensive and more convenient to use, thereby improving the user experience.

[0079] In an exemplary embodiment, a method for extracting content is provided, which is an improvement on step S120 in the above-mentioned method for extracting content. Specifically, determining that the note application has extractable target content within a set time period before the start time includes:

[0080] S210, determining that there is extractable content within a set time period before the start time of the note application;

[0081] S220, displaying the extractable content on the interface of the note application according to the second set condition;

[0082] S230: Receive a target content determination instruction and determine the target content.

[0083] In step S210, the extractable content is different from the target content. The extractable content refers to the content that can be extracted by the note application, and the target content is the content that needs to be extracted. The target extractable content is part or all of the content determined from the extractable content.

[0084] In this method, when it is determined that the set time before the start of the note application includes extractable content, the extractable content is displayed on the interface of the note application according to the second set condition, so that the user can understand the extractable content in time and select the target content to be extracted.

[0085] The second setting condition is similar to the first setting condition, the difference between the two is that the second setting condition is for extractable content, while the first setting condition is for target content; in the second setting condition, the extractable content is directly displayed on the interface of the note application, while in the first setting condition, the target content is displayed in the target extract note. The rules for the second setting condition that are similar to the first setting condition are not described here, but are only explained with the following examples.

[0086] refer to Figure 3 As shown, example:

[0087] Displaying the extractable content on the interface of the note application according to the second set condition includes: displaying the extractable content in a set area on the interface of the note application in chronological order, the set area being a separate area to avoid confusion with other content on the interface. The separate area can be preset in advance through existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0088] In this example, if the extractable content includes content A, content B and content C, content A was generated at 8:00, content B was generated at 8:20, and content C was generated at 9:00. When the extractable content is displayed in a separate area, the order is content A, content B and content C.

[0089] It should be noted that, in addition to the similar rules to the first setting condition, the second setting condition may also include: displaying the extractable content in the form of a summary.

[0090] It can not only save the display area occupied by the excerptable content, but also facilitate users to quickly understand the general content of each excerptable content.

[0091] Among them, when the content that can be summarized is text content, the summary can be the content of the first ten characters of the corresponding excerptable content, or it can be three keywords extracted from the excerptable content. The specific keyword determination method can be implemented through existing technologies and will not be described in detail here. When the content that can be summarized is picture content, the picture content is displayed in the form of a summary, which can be displayed in the form of a thumbnail of the picture content. The thumbnail can be a partial content of the picture content or a picture of the entire picture content after the size is reduced.

[0092] In this method, when the extractable content is displayed on the interface of the note application, the user can select it and input a target content determination instruction to the terminal. After the terminal receives the target content determination instruction, it determines the target content from the extractable content according to the determination instruction.

[0093] Regarding determining instructions, there are two situations.

[0094] Case 1: It is determined that the instruction includes the first touch information.

[0095] The first virtual button for starting the excerpt function is displayed on the interface of the note application, and the first virtual button may be an "excerpt" icon, a "quick excerpt" icon, etc. When the user inputs the first setting touch information at the location of the first virtual button, the terminal receives the first touch information, which means that the terminal receives the target content determination instruction, and at this time, all the excerptable content is determined as the excerptable target content by default. And the target content is excerpted to the target excerpt note.

[0096] Case 2: the determination instruction includes the second touch information and the third touch information.

[0097] A second virtual key is set on the side of each excerptable content, and the second virtual key is used to implement a selection function.

[0098] When the user inputs the second set touch information at the location of the second virtual key, the terminal receives the second touch information and switches the default selected state of the corresponding excerptable content to an unselected state, or switches the default unselected state to a selected state.

[0099] A third virtual button for implementing a save function is also displayed on the interface of the note application. The third virtual button may be a “save” or “store” icon.

[0100] When the user inputs the third setting touch information at the location of the third virtual key, the terminal receives the third touch information and determines all the selected extractable contents as target contents, and extracts the target contents into the target extract note.

[0101] It should be noted that, in this case, the second virtual key and the third virtual key may be set in the above-mentioned separate area for displaying the excerptable content.

[0102] In this method, the user can select target content to be excerpted from multiple excerptable contents according to needs, which can better meet the different needs of users and improve the user experience.

[0103] In an exemplary embodiment, a method for extracting content is provided, which is an improvement on step S210 in the above-mentioned method for extracting content. Specifically, determining that the note application has extractable content within a set time period before the start time includes:

[0104] It is determined that there is extractable content under a given directory within a set time period before the start time of the sticky note application.

[0105] The given directory is a preset directory. The given directory may include a clipboard directory and / or a media library directory for storing pictures. The clipboard directory may be a clipboard directory of a system input method.

[0106] When a given directory includes a clipboard directory and a media library directory, when determining whether the given directory includes extractable content, there is no restriction on the order of querying.

[0107] For example, the content in the clipboard directory may be queried first to determine whether the clipboard directory includes extractable content, and then the content in the media library directory may be queried to determine whether the media library directory includes extractable content.

[0108] For another example, the content in the media library directory may be queried first to determine whether the media library directory includes extractable content, and then the content in the clipboard directory may be queried to determine whether the clipboard directory includes extractable content.

[0109] It should be noted that when the processor controls the terminal to perform operations such as cutting and copying, the cut or copied content will be automatically saved to the clipboard folder. Therefore, when the notes application is started, the content cut or copied before the notes application is started can be determined by querying the clipboard directory.

[0110] When a terminal adds new picture content, the newly added picture content will be saved in the media library. Therefore, when the note application is started, the picture content added before the note application is started can be determined by querying the media library directory.

[0111] Regardless of whether it is the content in the clipboard directory or the content in the media library directory, when the above content is generated, the time of its generation will be recorded. According to the recorded time, it can be filtered whether the set time before the startup time of the note application includes excerptable content.

[0112] In this method, when it is determined that a given directory includes extractable content, the determined extractable content will be displayed on the interface of the note application to facilitate subsequent operations by the user.

[0113] In an exemplary embodiment, a method for extracting content is provided. The method for extracting content is an improvement of step S130 in the above-mentioned method for extracting content. Specifically, extracting target content to a target extracting note according to a first set condition includes:

[0114] The target content is extracted into a newly created extraction note or a selected historical extraction note according to the first set condition.

[0115] That is, in the method, the target excerpt note includes at least one of the following: a newly created excerpt note, a selected historical excerpt note. That is, the target excerpt note can be a newly created excerpt note, or a selected historical excerpt note.

[0116] In order to explain the method more clearly, four examples are given below.

[0117] Example 1:

[0118] The first virtual button for starting the excerpt function is displayed on the interface of the note application. When the user inputs the first set touch information at the location of the first virtual button, the terminal receives the first touch information, which means that the terminal receives the target content confirmation instruction. At this time, all excerptable contents are determined as excerptable target contents by default, and a new excerpt note is created at the same time, which is recorded as the new excerpt note, and the target content is excerpted to the new excerpt note.

[0119] Example 2:

[0120] The note application includes at least one historical excerpt note. After entering the display interface of the note application, one of the historical excerpt notes is selected according to a selection instruction input by the user for determining a target excerpt note, and is recorded as the selected historical excerpt note.

[0121] The first virtual button for starting the excerpt function is displayed on the interface of the note application. When the user inputs the first set touch information at the location of the first virtual button, all excerptable contents are determined as excerptable target contents by default, and the target contents are excerpted into the selected historical excerpt note.

[0122] Example 3:

[0123] A second virtual button is displayed on the side of each excerptable content, and a third virtual button for realizing the saving function is also displayed on the interface of the note application. When the user inputs the third setting touch information at the location of the third virtual button, the terminal receives the above third touch information. At this time, all the excerptable contents in the selected state will be determined as target contents, and a new excerpt note will be created at the same time, recorded as the newly created excerpt note, and the target content will be excerpted to the newly created excerpt note.

[0124] Example 4:

[0125] The note application includes at least one historical excerpt note. After entering the display interface of the note application, one of the historical excerpt notes is selected according to a selection instruction input by the user for determining a target excerpt note, and is recorded as the selected historical excerpt note.

[0126] A second virtual button is displayed on the side of each excerptable content, and a third virtual button for realizing the saving function is also displayed on the interface of the note application. When the user inputs the third set touch information at the location of the third virtual button, the terminal receives the above third touch information. At this time, all excerptable contents in the selected state will be determined as target content, and the target content will be excerpted to the selected historical excerpt note.

[0127] It should be noted that the extracting method includes: marking the target content after content extracting as extracted.

[0128] By marking the excerpted content as excerpted, it is easy to distinguish the excerpted content from the unexcerpted content, and it is better to avoid repeatedly excerpting the same content.

[0129] In this method, when the note application includes historical excerpt notes, after the note application is started, the user can choose to save the target content to one of the historical excerpt notes, or choose to save the target content to a newly created excerpt note, so as to better meet the different needs of users and improve the user experience.

[0130] In an exemplary embodiment, a method for extracting content is provided, wherein the method further comprises: displaying the historical extract notes on an interface of a notes application according to a third setting condition.

[0131] In the interface of the note application, a separate area for displaying each historical excerpt note is set, and multiple historical excerpt notes are displayed side by side or in a stacked list. The specific display method can be implemented by existing technologies and will not be described in detail here.

[0132] Each history excerpt note is also configured with a check box, and the history excerpt note is selected by clicking the check box.

[0133] The displayed content of the historical excerpt note may include: the creation time of the historical excerpt note, and part of the excerpt content, wherein the excerpt content may be the first few lines of content or the summary content. The summary content may be the content set by the user for the historical excerpt note, or it may be the content automatically formed based on the content excerpted by the historical excerpt note. The specific method of forming the summary content can be realized by the existing technology, which will not be described in detail here.

[0134] In this method, the user can learn the specific information of the history excerpt note in time, so that the user can select a selected history excerpt note from at least one history excerpt note as the target excerpt note.

[0135] Example:

[0136] refer to Figure 3 As shown, after the note application is started, multiple historical excerpt notes are displayed on the interface of the note application, and multiple historical excerpt notes are displayed side by side. When the target content is excerpted into the selected historical excerpt note according to the first set condition, the user clicks on one of the historical excerpt notes to select it as the selected historical excerpt note. When a historical excerpt note is determined as the selected historical excerpt note, the border of the historical excerpt note is displayed in a different color. That is, the color of the border of the selected historical excerpt note is different from the color of the borders of other historical excerpt notes, so that the user can clearly understand the historical excerpt note he has selected.

[0137] In an exemplary embodiment, a method for extracting content is provided, the method comprising: when a selected historical extract note is in an open state, entering an extract mode, and using the selected historical extract note as a current extract note in the extract mode, and extracting according to a fourth set condition.

[0138] In this method, the fourth setting condition includes: extracting the subsequent content to be excerpted into the selected historical excerpt note before the existing content of the selected historical excerpt note (i.e., the starting position of the historical excerpt note); or, extracting the subsequent content to be excerpted into the historical excerpt note after the existing content of the selected historical excerpt note.

[0139] In the method, the selected history excerpt note is opened according to the received opening instruction for opening the selected history excerpt note. The selected history excerpt note may be the selected history excerpt note in the above method, and the opening instruction may be implemented by using the existing technology, which will not be described in detail here.

[0140] According to the received call-out instruction for calling out and editing the selected historical excerpt note, an edit menu is displayed on the interface after the selected historical excerpt note is opened, and the edit menu includes an option for starting an input function, and the input function refers to a function for starting to input the selected historical excerpt note. Then, according to the received start-up instruction for starting the input function, the excerpt mode is entered, wherein the selected historical excerpt note is used as the current excerpt note of the excerpt mode.

[0141] refer to Figure 4 As shown, the option to start the input function can be a text mark of "start extracting". For example, when the user clicks the text mark of "start extracting", the user enters the extracting mode, and then extracts the excerptable content detected after entering the extracting mode to the selected historical extract note.

[0142] After entering the excerpting mode, the specific excerpting method is the same as the method for entering a newly created excerpt note in the prior art implementation, and will not be described in detail here.

[0143] This method can achieve the effect of continuously adding content to historical excerpt notes, thereby improving the user experience.

[0144] refer to Figure 3-5 As shown, in order to more clearly introduce the method of extracting the content proposed in this application, a specific example is used to illustrate it below.

[0145] In this example, the terminal is a mobile phone.

[0146] The user clicks on the application icon of the note application on the mobile phone and inputs a control instruction to start the note application into the mobile phone. After receiving the control instruction, the processor of the mobile phone starts the note application.

[0147] After the note application is started, it starts to determine whether a given directory (clipboard directory and media library directory) includes extractable content within a set time period before the note application is started.

[0148] If not included, the note application interface will not display the excerpted content.

[0149] If included, the determined excerptable content will be displayed in a separate area of ​​the note application in chronological order, that is, in the order of the time when the excerptable content was generated, and displayed in a separate area. The user can select the displayed excerptable content, determine the target content to be excerpted, and then click the first virtual button marked with "excerpt" on the interface of the note application. After the mobile phone receives the above-mentioned click touch information, a new excerpt note is created, recorded as a new excerpt note, and the target content is saved in the new excerpt note.

[0150] In addition, after the note application is started, it is determined whether the note application includes historical excerpt notes.

[0151] If not included, the history excerpt notes will not be displayed in the notes application interface.

[0152] If included, the interface of the note application displays the historical excerpt note according to the third setting condition. The user can select one of the historical excerpt notes as the selected historical excerpt note, open the selected historical excerpt note based on the received opening instruction, then call out the edit menu through the calling instruction, enter the excerpt mode through the start instruction, use the selected historical excerpt note as the current excerpt note in the excerpt mode, and extract the monitored excerptable content to the selected historical excerpt note, thereby realizing the re-entry of the historical excerpt note.

[0153] Of course, after the note application is started, you can also create a new excerpt note by clicking the fourth virtual button marked "New", which is recorded as a new excerpt note. Then click the first virtual button in the interface of the note application to enter the excerpt mode. And use the newly created excerpt note as the current excerpt note in the excerpt mode, and extract the monitored excerptable content to the newly created excerpt note, so as to realize the traditional entry of the newly created excerpt note.

[0154] When entering the excerpting mode, a floating button can be displayed on the display interface of the mobile phone. At this time, the floating button is marked as "excerpting" to facilitate the user to know that the user is currently in the excerpting mode.

[0155] In the excerpt mode, when the mobile phone performs a copy or cut operation, the content of the above operation is excerpted and saved to the current excerpt note.

[0156] After the excerpt is completed, the logo of the floating button switches to "Excerpted", and a summary of the excerpted content is displayed in the floating button.

[0157] Similarly, when the mobile phone performs an operation to add a picture (such as adding a screenshot, downloading a picture, taking a picture, etc.), it will also extract it and display a thumbnail of the picture content on the floating button.

[0158] The method of this example not only realizes the excerpting of the content before the note application is started to the target excerpt note, that is, it realizes the excerpting of the content before the excerpt mode is started to the target excerpt note, making the note application more comprehensive in the excerpted content, but also can re-add content to the historical excerpt notes, which is more convenient for users to use, can better meet the different needs of users, and enhance the user experience.
