[0018] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0019] The terms "first", "second", and the like in the specification and claims of the present application are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be exchanged under appropriate circumstances, so that the embodiments of the present application can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein, and the objects distinguished by "first", "second", etc. are generally of a kind and do not limit the number of objects, for example, the first object can be one or more. In addition, "and / or" in the specification and claims indicates at least one of the connected objects, and the character " / ", generally indicates that the front and rear associated objects are in an "or" relationship.

[0020] The desktop morpher display method provided by the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings, specific embodiments and application scenarios.

[0021] With the development of communication technology, the morpher on the electronic device system OriginOS Ocean is gradually enriched from the original desktop morpher to the system morpher. On the basis of the original desktop morpher, the system morpher supplements the system style, minimalist style, theme, and wallpaper personalized customization functions. With the further enrichment of the personalized customization functions, the display mode of the desktop morpher under the folding screen inside and outside the screen is more complex. In the related technology, the electronic device can dynamically display the size of the desktop morpher on the screen according to the size of the screen of the electronic device. Since the interactive logic of the desktop morpher itself is relatively complex and the requirements for the interface and dynamic effect of the electronic device are relatively high, the display effect of the adjusted desktop morpher does not meet the visual requirements (for example, the content in the system morpher is not displayed completely). At the same time, since the folding screen has the functions of unfolding and folding, when the folding screen is unfolded, the electronic device can determine the size of the desktop morpher according to the screen size of the folding screen when the folding screen is unfolded. However, after the electronic device determines the size of the desktop morpher, the electronic device can retain the display style of the desktop morpher. If the user performs a folding operation on the folding screen, since the desktop morpher retains the display style when the folding screen is unfolded, the display on the desktop of the folded electronic device is crowded. Therefore, the completeness and flexibility of the display of the desktop morpher of the electronic device when switching the screen are poor.

[0022] In the folding screen display electronic device desktop case, the user can input the target morpher in the desktop morpher. The target morpher can determine at least one page from the desktop of the electronic device according to the screen state (for example, the unfolded state or the folded state) of the folding screen, and display the function panel of the target morpher in the at least one page. In the present scheme, since the electronic device can determine at least one page from the desktop of the electronic device according to the folding state of the folding screen, and display the function panel of the target morpher in the at least one page, the electronic device can determine the display mode of the target morpher on the desktop of the electronic device according to the folding state of the folding screen. Therefore, when the user performs a folding operation or an unfolding operation on the folding screen, the electronic device can change the display mode of the target morpher on the desktop of the electronic device, thereby avoiding the problem that when the folding screen is folded, the desktop morpher on the desktop of the folded electronic device is not complete or crowded due to the retention of the previous display mode (i.e. the display mode when the folding screen is unfolded). Therefore, the completeness and flexibility of the display of the desktop morpher of the electronic device when switching the screen are improved.

[0023] The present application provides a desktop morpher display method, Figure 1 A flowchart of a desktop morpher display method provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown. As shown in Figure 1As shown, the desktop transformer display method provided by the embodiment of the present application can include the following steps 201 and 202.

[0024] Step 201, in the case of folding the desktop of the folding screen display electronic device, the electronic device receives the first input of the user to the target transformer in the desktop.

[0025] In the embodiment of the present application, the target transformer is used to indicate at least one application function in the electronic device.

[0026] In the embodiment of the present application, the folding screen of the electronic device in the case of being in the folded state, the screen displayed by the electronic device can be referred to as the outer screen; the folding screen of the electronic device in the case of being in the unfolded state, the screen displayed by the electronic device can be referred to as the inner screen.

[0027] In the embodiment of the present application, in the case that the folding screen is in the folded state and the outer screen of the electronic device includes at least one desktop transformer, the user can perform a first input on any desktop transformer (for example, a target desktop transformer) in the at least one desktop transformer to trigger the electronic device to display a function panel corresponding to the target transformer.

[0028] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the at least one desktop transformer can be displayed on the desktop of the electronic device in a floating display manner.

[0029] In the embodiment of the present application, the folded state can be that when the included angle between any two adjacent display screens in the foldable electronic device is less than a first preset threshold (for example, the included angle between the two adjacent display screens is less than 150°), it is considered that the screen state of the foldable electronic device is the folded state.

[0030] In the embodiment of the present application, when the included angle between all adjacent display screens in the foldable electronic device is greater than or equal to the first preset threshold (for example, the included angle between the two adjacent display screens is greater than 150°), it is considered that the screen state of the foldable electronic device is the unfolded state.

[0031] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the first input can be a click input, a long press input, a sliding input, a preset track input, etc.; or the first input can be an input of the user to a physical key or a combination input to a physical key. Specifically, it can be determined according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the present application is not limited.

[0032] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the desktop transformer refers to a desktop of an electronic device, which can display system setting controls, window style controls, icon style controls and the like, so that a user can input a target control in the desktop transformer on the desktop of the electronic device to trigger the electronic device to set a system desktop, a system theme and an application icon, that is, the desktop transformer is a system desktop with convenience and flexibility.

[0033] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device can add an interaction pool in the desktop transformer, in which a gesture operation used by a user in daily life can be set, so that the user can trigger the electronic device to set a system desktop, a system theme and an application icon through a pre-set gesture.

[0034] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device can add an atomic component in the desktop transformer, which can integrate application icons in different positions on the desktop of the electronic device, thereby improving the efficiency of the user in searching for a target application program.

[0035] In step 202, the electronic device determines at least one page from the desktop according to the screen state of the folding screen in response to the first input, and displays a function panel of the target transformer in the at least one page.

[0036] In the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device can divide the function panel of the target transformer into at least one page of function panels according to the screen state of the folding screen, and determine at least one page corresponding to the at least one page of function panels on the desktop of the electronic device (for example, a folding screen outer screen desktop or a folding screen inner screen desktop), so as to display the function panel of the target transformer in the at least one page on the desktop of the folding screen.

[0037] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device can divide the function panel of the target transformer into at least one page of function panels according to the number of the function panel of the target transformer, and determine at least one page corresponding to the at least one page of function panels on the desktop of the folding screen (for example, a folding screen outer screen desktop or a folding screen inner screen desktop), so as to display the function panel of the target transformer in the at least one page on the desktop of the folding screen.

[0038] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device can divide the function panel of the target transformer into at least one page of function panels according to the screen size of the folding screen, and determine at least one page corresponding to the at least one page of function panels on the desktop of the folding screen (for example, a folding screen outer screen desktop or a folding screen inner screen desktop), so as to display the function panel of the target transformer in the at least one page on the desktop of the folding screen.

[0039] It should be noted that, when the folding screen is in the folded state, the page displayed on the screen of the outer screen of the folding screen is one page, and when the folding screen is in the unfolded state, the page displayed on the screen of the inner screen of the unfolded folding screen is one page.

[0040] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the "determining at least one page from the desktop according to the screen state of the folding screen" in the above step 202 can be implemented through the following steps 301 to 303.

[0041] Step 301, in the case that the screen state of the folding screen is the folded state, the electronic device displays a first function panel in the first page.

[0042] In the embodiment of the present application, the above first page is the page where the target transformer is located in the outer screen area of the folding screen.

[0043] In the embodiment of the present application, when the screen state of the folding screen is the folded state, the electronic device can perform division processing on the function panels in the target transformer to obtain at least one page of function panels, and determine at least one page corresponding to the at least one page of function panels in the outer screen area of the folding screen, so as to display the first function panel in the at least one page of function panels on the first page in the at least one page of the outer screen of the folding screen.

[0044] Step 302, the electronic device receives a second input of the user to the first function panel.

[0045] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the above second input can be a click input, a long press input, a sliding input, a preset track input, etc.; or the above second input can be an input of the user to a physical key or a combination input to a physical key. The specific determination can be made according to the actual use requirement, and the embodiment of the present application is not limited.

[0046] Step 303, the electronic device switches from the first page to a second page in the outer screen area in response to the second input, and displays a second function panel in the second page.

[0047] In the embodiment of the present application, the above second function panel is a function panel other than the first function panel in the function panels of the target transformer.

[0048] In the embodiments of the present application, after the electronic device divides the functional panel in the target transformer and obtains at least one page of functional panel, the electronic device can display the first page of functional panel (i.e., the first functional panel) in the at least one page of functional panel (e.g., two pages of functional panel) on the first page (i.e., the first page) of at least one desktop page corresponding to the at least one page of functional panel in the outer screen of the folding screen, and display the second page of functional panel (i.e., the second functional panel) on the desktop page adjacent to the first page (i.e., the second page). In this way, the user can trigger the electronic device to switch to the second page and display the second functional panel by inputting the second input to the first functional panel in the first page, i.e., the electronic device can display the divided at least one page of functional panel on the outer screen of the folding screen in the paging manner.

[0049] For example, taking a mobile phone as an example, as shown in (A) of FIG. 11, when the screen state of the mobile phone is in the folded state, the mobile phone can display the first functional panel 11 in the first page 10 of the outer screen of the folding screen, and the first functional panel includes the system public control style functional panel 12 and the system style functional panel 13, as shown in (B) of FIG. 11, the second functional panel 15 is displayed in the second page 14 of the outer screen of the folding screen, and the second functional panel includes the icon style functional panel 16, the window style functional panel 17 and the theme style functional panel 18. In this way, the user can trigger the mobile phone to display the second functional panel in the second page by sliding the first page. Figure 2 Figure 2 In the embodiments of the present application, when the folding screen is in the folded state, the electronic device can display the functional panel of the target transformer on the first page and the second page of the outer screen of the folding screen respectively, i.e., the user can display the functional panel of the target transformer in the paging manner, which avoids the problem that when the folding screen is in the folded state, the desktop transformer on the desktop of the folded electronic device is not complete or crowded due to the fact that the desktop transformer retains the previous display mode (i.e., the display mode when the folding screen is in the unfolded state), thereby improving the completeness and flexibility of the electronic device in displaying the desktop transformer when switching the screen.

[0050] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the step 202 can be implemented by the following step 401.

[0051] Step 401, in the case that the screen state of the folding screen is in the unfolded state, the electronic device determines at least one page from the inner screen area according to the number of pages in the inner screen area of the folding screen.

[0052] Step 401, in the case that the screen state of the folding screen is in the unfolded state, the electronic device determines at least one page from the inner screen area according to the number of pages in the inner screen area of the folding screen.

[0053] ​In the embodiments of the present application, in a case where the screen state of the folding screen is the unfolded state, the electronic device can determine the at least one display target transformer page from the inner screen area of the folding screen according to the number of pages (for example, odd or even) of the desktop in the inner screen area of the folding screen.

[0054] In the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device can adjust the display page of the target transformer by the number of pages of the desktop in the inner screen area of the folding screen, thereby improving the flexibility of the electronic device in displaying the desktop transformer.

[0055] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the above step 401 can be implemented by the following step 401a or step 401b.

[0056] Step 401a, in a case where the screen state of the folding screen is the unfolded state and the number of pages is even, the electronic device determines the third page as the at least one page.

[0057] In the embodiments of the present application, the above third page is all the pages currently displayed in the inner screen area of the folding screen.

[0058] In the embodiments of the present application, in a case where the screen state of the folding screen is the unfolded state and the number of pages is even, the electronic device can determine the third page as the page of the function panel of the display target transformer. Thus, after the electronic device receives the first input of the user, the electronic device can display the function panel of the target transformer on the third page in the inner screen of the folding screen, one side of the third page can display the first function panel of the target transformer, and the other side of the third page can display the second function panel of the target transformer, that is, the function panel of the target transformer can be displayed completely without the user inputting the third page.

[0059] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the one side of the above third page can be the left side of the third page, and the other side of the third page is the right side of the third page; or the one side of the above third page can be the right side of the third page, and the other side of the third page is the left side of the third page.

[0060] Exemplarily, as shown in FIG. 6, in a case where the number of pages of the desktop in the inner screen area of the folding screen is even, the electronic device can determine the third page as the at least one page. Figure 3As shown, when the screen state of the folding screen is the unfolded state and the number of pages is even, after the user inputs a click on the target transformer, the phone can display the first function panel 11 on the left screen 19 of the folding screen inner screen, which includes the system public control style function panel 12 and the system style function panel 13, and display the second function panel 15 on the left screen 20 of the folding screen inner screen, which includes the icon style function panel 16, the window style function panel 17 and the theme style function panel 18, that is, when the screen state of the folding screen is the unfolded state and the number of pages is even, all the function panels of the target transformer are displayed on the entire inner screen of the folding screen by default, and the user does not need to perform a sliding input to display the complete function panels.

[0061] Step 401b, in the case that the screen state of the folding screen is the unfolded state and the number of pages is odd, the electronic device determines at least one page from the inner screen area according to the display of the first area.

[0062] In the embodiments of the present application, the first area is an area in the inner screen area of the folding screen except an area where a fourth page is located, and the fourth page is a page in the inner screen area of the folding screen where the target transformer is located.

[0063] It can be understood that when the screen state of the folding screen is the unfolded state and the number of pages is odd, the last page displayed on the folding screen inner screen will be displayed as a blank page, so that the electronic device can determine at least one page displaying the function panel of the target transformer from the inner screen area according to the display of the folding screen inner screen.

[0064] It should be noted that the blank page is a page in the inner screen of the folding screen where there is no object such as an application icon, an application control, an application plug-in, etc.

[0065] In the embodiments of the present application, when the folding screen is in the unfolded state, the electronic device can determine the display mode of the target transformer in the folding screen inner screen according to the number of pages of the folding screen inner screen, thereby avoiding the problem that the interaction logic of the transformer itself is relatively complex, resulting in that the display effect of the desktop transformer after self-adaptation does not meet the visual requirements (for example, the content in the desktop transformer is not displayed completely), and improving the integrity and flexibility of the electronic device in displaying the desktop transformer when switching screens.

[0066] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the step 401b can be implemented by the following step 401b1 or step 401b2.

[0067] Step 401b1, in the case that the screen state of the folding screen is the unfolded state, the number of pages is odd, and the fifth page is displayed in the first area, the fourth page and the fifth page are determined as the at least one page.

[0068] In an embodiment of the present application, when the screen state of the folding screen is the unfolded state and the number of pages is odd, the electronic device can determine whether there is a page displayed on one side of the inner screen of the folding screen (i.e., the first area). When there is a page displayed on the first area (i.e., the fifth page), the electronic device can determine the fourth page and the fifth page as the at least one page, and display the function control of the target transformer on the at least one page.

[0069] It should be noted that the fifth page is the page adjacent to the fourth page.

[0070] It can be understood that when the fifth page contains display content, the display mode of the target transformer is consistent with the display mode in step 401a.

[0071] Step 401b2, when the screen state of the folding screen is the unfolded state, the number of pages is odd, and the first area displays a blank page, the fourth page and the sixth page are determined as the at least one page.

[0072] In an embodiment of the present application, the sixth page is a non-blank page in the inner screen area except the fourth page.

[0073] In an embodiment of the present application, when the screen state of the folding screen is the unfolded state and the number of pages is odd, the electronic device can determine whether there is a page displayed on one side of the inner screen of the folding screen (i.e., the first area). When the electronic device determines that the first area contains a blank page, the electronic device can display the sixth page on the blank page in the folding screen, and display the function panel of the target transformer on the fourth page, so that the user can input the function panel of the target transformer on one side of the inner screen of the unfolded folding screen (i.e., the fourth page), and real-time view the editing effect of the application icon, application control or application plug-in contained in the sixth page on the other side of the inner screen of the folding screen (i.e., the sixth page).

[0074] In an embodiment of the present application, when the screen state of the folding screen is the unfolded state and the number of pages is odd, the electronic device can determine the display mode of the target transformer according to whether there is a blank page in the inner screen of the folding screen, which improves the flexibility of the electronic device to display the desktop transformer.

[0075] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, when the folding screen is in the folded state, the user can input a target transformer in the at least one desktop transformer displayed on the outer screen of the folding screen to trigger the electronic device to open the target transformer and display the function panel of the target transformer on the outer screen of the folding screen according to the first preset display rule. At this time, if the user inputs the folding screen (i.e., the state of the folding screen is switched from the folded state to the unfolded state), the electronic device can display the function panel of the target transformer on the inner screen of the folding screen according to the second display rule or the third display rule according to the number of pages (e.g., even or odd) of the inner screen of the folding screen. When the folding screen is in the unfolded state, the user can input a target transformer in the at least one desktop transformer displayed on the inner screen of the folding screen to trigger the electronic device to open the target transformer and display the function panel of the target transformer on the inner screen of the folding screen according to the number of pages (e.g., even or odd) of the inner screen of the folding screen according to the second display rule or the third display rule. At this time, if the user inputs the folding screen (i.e., the state of the folding screen is switched from the unfolded state to the folded state), the electronic device can display the function panel of the target transformer on the inner screen of the folding screen according to the first display rule.

[0076] It should be noted that the first display rule can be referred to steps 301-303, which will not be repeated here. The second display rule can be referred to step 401a, which will not be repeated here. The third display rule can be referred to steps 401b1 and 401b2, which will not be repeated here.

[0077] The embodiments of the present application provide a desktop transformer display method. Since the electronic device can determine at least one page from the electronic device desktop according to the folding state of the folding screen, and display the function panel of the target transformer in the at least one page, the electronic device can determine the display mode of the target transformer on the electronic device desktop according to the folding state of the folding screen, so that when the user performs folding operation or unfolding operation on the folding screen, the electronic device can change the display mode of the target transformer on the electronic device desktop, thereby avoiding the problem that when the folding screen is in the folded state, the desktop transformer retains the previous display mode (i.e., the display mode when the folding screen is in the unfolded state), resulting in incomplete display or crowded display of the desktop transformer on the desktop of the folded electronic device. Therefore, the integrity and flexibility of displaying the desktop transformer when switching the screen of the electronic device are improved.

[0078] Optionally, after step 201, the desktop transformer display method provided by the embodiments of the present application further includes steps 501 and 502.

[0079] Step 501, the electronic device receives the folding input of the folding screen by the user.

[0080] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the folding input can be a physical folding input of the folding screen by the user (for example, the user bends the two ends of the folding screen with his hand); or the folding input can be a click input, a long press input or a sliding input of the folding control in the folding screen by the user; or the folding input is an input of a physical key of the folding screen by the user. Specifically, the first order can be determined according to actual use requirements, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited.

[0081] In step 502, the electronic device plays, in a preset animation form, the pages displayed in the inner screen area before folding in the outer screen area of the folding screen in a first order in response to the folding input.
