[0061] To make the above objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more obvious and understandable, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation manners. Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0062] The method of the embodiment of the present invention can run on a terminal device or a server. Among them, the terminal device can be a local terminal device. When the adjustment method of the virtual object runs on the server, the adjustment method of the virtual object can be implemented and executed based on a cloud interaction system, where the cloud interaction system includes a server and a client device.

[0063] In an optional implementation manner, various cloud applications can run under the cloud interaction system, such as cloud games. Taking cloud games as an example, cloud games refer to a game mode based on cloud computing. In the running mode of cloud games, the running entity of the game program and the presenting entity of the game screen are separated. The storage and running of the adjustment method of the virtual object are completed on the cloud game server. The role of the client device is to receive and send data and present the game screen. For example, the client device can be a display device with data transmission function close to the user side, such as a mobile terminal, a television, a computer, a palm computer, etc.; however, the terminal device for the adjustment method of the virtual object is the cloud game server in the cloud. When playing a game, the player operates the client device to send an operation instruction to the cloud game server. The cloud game server runs the game according to the operation instruction, encodes and compresses data such as the game screen, returns it to the client device through the network, and finally, decodes and outputs the game screen through the client device.

[0064] In an optional implementation manner, the terminal device can be a local terminal device. Taking a game as an example, the local terminal device stores a game program and is used to present the game screen. The local terminal device is used to interact with the player through a graphical user interface, that is, conventionally, the game program is downloaded and installed on an electronic device and run. The way the local terminal device provides the graphical user interface to the player can include various ways. For example, it can be rendered and displayed on the display screen of the terminal, or provided to the player through holographic projection. For example, the local terminal device can include a display screen and a processor. The display screen is used to present the graphical user interface, and the graphical user interface includes a game screen. The processor is used to run the game, generate the graphical user interface, and control the display of the graphical user interface on the display screen.

[0065] Referring to Figure 1 , a step flowchart of an adjustment method for a virtual object according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown. An image user interface can be provided through a terminal device. At least part of a virtual scene can be displayed in the image user interface. The virtual scene can refer to a virtual scene provided by an application program (such as a character attribute setting scene, a prop placement setting scene); the virtual scene can include a virtual object, and the virtual object can be an object in the virtual scene, such as a character or an item in a game;

[0066] Specifically, it can include the following steps:

[0067] Step 101: In response to a first touch operation on a virtual object, display an attribute prompt control in the associated area of the virtual object. The attribute prompt control includes more than two areas, and each area corresponds to an attribute of the virtual object respectively.

[0068] Among them, the attribute prompt control may include more than two areas; the more than two areas may be areas composed of more than two concentric circles (such as Figure 2a ), or may be areas composed of more than two non-concentric circles (such as Figure 2b ); of course, it may also be areas of other shapes, such as areas composed of more than two squares (such as Figure 2c ), and the embodiments of the present invention do not limit this.

[0069] Each area in the attribute prompt control may correspond to an attribute of the virtual object; the attribute prompt control can be used to prompt the user which attribute of the virtual object is being adjusted currently; the attributes of the virtual object may include size attributes, orientation attributes, and may also include other attributes, such as: color attributes, and the embodiments of the present invention do not limit this.

[0070] When the user wants to adjust the attributes of a virtual object in a virtual scene, a first touch operation can be performed on the virtual object first; the first touch operation can be a click operation, a swipe operation, a long press operation, etc., and the embodiments of the present invention do not limit this.

[0071] Such as Figure 3 , the user can click on the virtual object 310 in the virtual scene 300 to perform a first touch operation on the virtual object.

[0072] After receiving the first touch operation on the virtual object, an attribute prompt control for the virtual object can be displayed in the pre-set associated area for the virtual object. For example: the attribute prompt control can be displayed around the virtual object, or the attribute prompt control can be displayed in a fixed area of the graphical user interface, and the embodiments of the present invention do not limit this.

[0073] Step 102: In response to a second touch operation on an area other than the attribute prompt control, highlight a first target area among the more than two areas according to the second touch operation, where the first target area corresponds to a first target attribute of the virtual object.

[0074] Among them, the second touch operation can be a vertical swipe operation or a long press operation.

[0075] In practical applications, when a user needs to adjust the attributes of a virtual object, the user can click on the control corresponding to the attribute. However, when the operable area is small, the user may click on the control corresponding to an attribute that does not need to be adjusted, or click on other virtual objects.

[0076] To avoid accidental touches by the user, embodiments of the present invention can complete the adjustment of the attributes of a virtual object through a coherent interaction operation.

[0077] Specifically, when a user needs to adjust an attribute of a virtual object, a second touch operation can be performed in an area outside the attribute prompt control.

[0078] During the second touch operation, the terminal device can sequentially highlight one area among two or more areas. For example, if the two or more areas include area A and area B, area A among the two or more areas can be highlighted first, then the highlighting of area A is cancelled, and area B is highlighted; then the highlighting of area B is cancelled, and area A is highlighted again...

[0079] When the attribute corresponding to the highlighted area is the area that the user wants to adjust for the virtual object, the user can complete the second touch operation. For example, when the second touch operation is a long-press operation, the long-press can be stopped to complete the second touch operation; when the second touch operation is a vertical sliding operation, the sliding can be stopped to complete the second touch operation.

[0080] At this time, the terminal device can respond to the second touch operation on the area outside the attribute prompt control and highlight the first target area among the two or more areas in the attribute prompt control, so as to let the user know which attribute of the virtual object is about to be adjusted currently.

[0081] For example, if the user wants to adjust the size of a virtual object, during the execution of the second touch operation, if the area corresponding to the size attribute is highlighted, the user can stop continuing to execute the second touch operation to complete the second touch operation. At this time, the area corresponding to the size attribute will be highlighted as the first target area, and the size attribute will also be the first target attribute.

[0082] Step 103: Respond to a third touch operation on the area outside the attribute prompt control, and adjust the first target attribute of the virtual object according to the third touch operation, where the third touch operation and the second touch operation are continuous operations.

[0083] Among them, the third touch operation can be a horizontal sliding operation; the horizontal direction and the vertical direction can be in a relationship of 90° to each other.

[0084] After selecting the first target attribute, the user can perform a third touch operation in the area outside the attribute prompt control to adjust the first target attribute of the virtual object.

[0085] Specifically, after the user performs the second touch operation / long presses the second touch operation in the vertical direction, the user can directly perform the third touch operation, which is a horizontal sliding operation, in the area outside the attribute prompt control, so as to complete attribute selection and attribute adjustment through a continuous operation.

[0086] Such as Figure 4a , by default, the attribute prompt control 400 does not highlight any area; after the user performs the second touch operation of sliding upward in the vertical direction, the first target area 410 is highlighted.

[0087] Such as Figure 4b , the first target attribute corresponding to the first target area 410 is the size attribute; when the first target area 410 is highlighted, perform the third touch operation of sliding left in the horizontal direction to shrink the virtual object 420.

[0088] Such as Figure 4c , the first target attribute corresponding to the first target area 410 is the size attribute; when the first target area 410 is highlighted, perform the third touch operation of sliding right in the horizontal direction to enlarge the virtual object 420.

[0089] In response to the third touch operation, the terminal device can adjust the first target attribute of the virtual object. Specifically, different orientations in the horizontal direction can be preset to correspond to different adjustment operations. For example: if the third touch operation is in the left horizontal direction, then perform an adjustment operation to increase the first target attribute of the virtual object; if the third touch operation is in the right horizontal direction, then perform an adjustment operation to decrease the first target attribute of the virtual object; the specific correspondence and adjustment ratio can be set according to the actual situation, and the embodiments of the present invention do not limit this.

[0090] In an embodiment of the present invention, a first touch operation on a virtual object may be responded to first, and an attribute prompt control is displayed in an associated area of the virtual object. The attribute prompt control includes more than two areas, and each area corresponds to an attribute of the virtual object respectively; a second touch operation on an area outside the attribute prompt control is responded to, and a first target area among the more than two areas is highlighted according to the second touch operation, where the first target area corresponds to a first target attribute of the virtual object; a third touch operation on an area outside the attribute prompt control is responded to, and the first target attribute of the virtual object is adjusted according to the third touch operation, where the third touch operation and the second touch operation are consecutive operations. Through the embodiment of the present invention, when a user adjusts the attributes of a virtual object, there is no need to click on the control for adjusting the attributes anymore, thereby avoiding the problem that other attributes or the virtual object may be accidentally touched when adjusting the attributes of the virtual object; and the adjustment of the attributes can be completed through a continuous operation, which can reduce the operations that the user needs to perform when adjusting the attributes of the virtual object; thus, the efficiency of adjusting the attributes of the virtual object is improved.

[0091] Referring to Figure 5 , a step flowchart of another method for adjusting a virtual object according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown, and may include the following steps:

[0092] Step 501, respond to a first touch operation on a virtual object, and display an attribute prompt control at the bottom of the virtual object.

[0093] When a user wants to adjust the attributes of a virtual object in a virtual scene, a first touch operation may be performed on the virtual object first.

[0094] After receiving the first touch operation on the virtual object, an attribute prompt control for the virtual object may be displayed in a preset associated area for the virtual object.

[0095] Specifically, the attribute prompt control may be displayed at the bottom of the virtual object; the bottom may be the bottom of the virtual object relative to the virtual scene, such as Figure 6 , a virtual object 610 is displayed in a virtual scene 600, and the attribute prompt control 620 may be displayed at the bottom of the virtual object 610.

[0096] Step 502, respond to a second touch operation on an area outside the attribute prompt control, and highlight a first target area among the more than two areas according to the second touch operation.

[0097] When a user needs to adjust an attribute of a virtual object, a second touch operation may be performed in an area outside the attribute prompt control.

[0098] During the process of performing the second touch operation, the terminal device can sequentially highlight one area among two or more areas.

[0099] When the attribute corresponding to the highlighted area is the area where the user wants to adjust the virtual object, the user can complete the second touch operation.

[0100] At this time, the terminal device can respond to the second touch operation on the area outside the attribute prompt control, and highlight the first target area among two or more areas in the attribute prompt control, so as to let the user know which attribute of the virtual object is about to be adjusted currently.

[0101] Step 503: Respond to the third touch operation on the area outside the attribute prompt control, and adjust the first target attribute of the virtual object according to the third touch operation.

[0102] After selecting the first target attribute, the user can perform a third touch operation on the area outside the attribute prompt control to adjust the first target attribute of the virtual object.

[0103] Specifically, the user can perform a third touch operation that is a horizontal sliding operation on the area outside the attribute prompt control, to be different from the second touch operation for selecting an attribute. In response to the third touch operation, the terminal device can adjust the first target attribute of the virtual object.

[0104] Step 504: Respond to the fourth touch operation on the virtual object, and select the virtual object.

[0105] In practical applications, the user may need to change the position of the virtual object in the virtual scene; at this time, the user can perform a fourth touch operation on the virtual object; the fourth touch operation can be an operation different from the first touch operation. For example, the pressing force of the first touch operation is different from the pressing force of the fourth touch operation, and the embodiments of the present invention do not limit this.

[0106] In response to the fourth touch operation on the virtual object, the terminal device can select the virtual object in the virtual scene.

[0107] As an example, there can be multiple virtual objects in the virtual scene; therefore, the virtual object targeted by the fourth touch operation can be used as the target virtual object, and its state can be set to the selected state.

[0108] In order to prompt the user that the virtual object is selected, the display state of the virtual object can be changed. For example: highlighting the virtual object, jittering the display of the virtual object, and the embodiments of the present invention do not limit this.

[0109] Step 505: When the virtual object is in a selected state, in response to a drag operation on the virtual object, control the virtual object to move in the virtual scene.

[0110] When the virtual object is in a selected state, the user can perform a drag operation on the virtual object to change the position of the virtual object in the virtual scene; specifically, the terminal device can, in response to the drag operation, control the virtual object to move in the virtual scene.

[0111] When the drag operation ends, the movement of the virtual object can be stopped and the virtual object can be fixed at the current position.

[0112] In an embodiment of the present invention, in order to reduce the operations required for the user to adjust the attributes of the virtual object and move the position of the virtual object, the adjustment of the attributes of the virtual object and the movement of the position can be completed with a coherent gesture operation. Specifically, the drag operation can be a continuous operation with the second touch operation, and / or the drag operation can be a continuous operation with the third touch operation.

[0113] For example: after the user performs the second touch operation, the touch position can be adjusted to perform a fourth touch operation on the virtual object to select the virtual object; then, without lifting the finger from the terminal device, the drag operation can be continued to move the position of the virtual object in the virtual scene.

[0114] Also for example: after the user performs the third touch operation, the touch position can be adjusted to perform a fourth touch operation on the virtual object to select the virtual object; then, without lifting the finger from the terminal device, the drag operation can be continued to move the position of the virtual object in the virtual scene terminal.

[0115] Step 506: In response to a fifth touch operation on an area other than the attribute prompt control, highlight a second target area in two or more areas according to the fifth touch operation, and cancel the highlighted state of the first target area.

[0116] When the user adjusts the first target attribute of the virtual object to the target value, it may be necessary to adjust other attributes of the virtual object; at this time, the user can perform a fifth touch operation on an area other than the attribute prompt control; for example: long-pressing again on an area other than the attribute prompt control, or sliding again in the vertical direction on an area other than the attribute prompt control, and the embodiments of the present invention do not limit this.

[0117] After the user performs the fifth touch operation on an area other than the attribute prompt control, the terminal device can, in response to the fifth touch operation, cancel the highlighted state of the first target area and highlight the second target area in two or more areas.

[0118] For example, when the user wants to adjust the orientation attribute of the virtual object after adjusting the size attribute of the virtual object, the user can perform a fifth touch operation in the area outside the attribute prompt control. During the execution of the fifth touch operation, the terminal device can start from the first target area corresponding to the size attribute and sequentially highlight one area among two or more areas. When the attribute corresponding to the highlighted area is the orientation attribute, the user can complete the fifth touch operation. At this time, the terminal device can respond to the fifth touch operation applied to the area outside the attribute prompt control, use the orientation attribute as the second target attribute, use the area corresponding to the orientation attribute as the second target area, and highlight the second target area.

[0119] For example Figure 7a , after the user performs a fifth touch operation of swiping down vertically in the area outside the attribute prompt control, the second target area 720 can be highlighted, and the highlighting state of the first target area 710 can be cancelled.

[0120] Step 507: When the second target area is in the highlighted state, respond to the third touch operation applied to the area outside the attribute prompt control, and adjust the second target attribute of the virtual object according to the third touch operation.

[0121] When the second target area is in the highlighted state, the user can re-perform the third touch operation in the area outside the attribute prompt control to adjust the second target attribute of the virtual object.

[0122] When the user finishes performing the third touch operation in the area outside the attribute prompt control, the terminal device can respond to the third touch operation and adjust the second target attribute of the virtual object; the specific adjustment process is similar to the adjustment process of the first target attribute and will not be elaborated here.

[0123] For example Figure 7b , the second target attribute corresponding to the second target area 720 is the orientation attribute; when the second target area 720 is highlighted, perform a third touch operation of swiping left horizontally to adjust the orientation of the virtual object 730 to the left.

[0124] For example Figure 7c , the second target attribute corresponding to the second target area 720 is the orientation attribute; when the second target area 720 is highlighted, perform a third touch operation of swiping right horizontally to adjust the orientation of the virtual object 730 to the right.

[0125] As an example, the first touch operation, the second touch operation, the third touch operation, the fourth touch operation, the fifth touch operation, and the drag operation in the embodiments of the present invention may be a continuous operation to further reduce the operations that the user needs to perform when adjusting the attributes and positions of virtual objects; they may also be relatively independent operations respectively, and the embodiments of the present invention do not limit this.

[0126] Hereinafter, an adjustment method for a virtual object according to an embodiment of the present invention will be exemplified:

[0127] a. Click to select the virtual object. At this time, the virtual object is in a selected state, and dragging can adjust the position of the virtual object in the virtual scene.

[0128] b. Long-press the virtual object, and property prompt controls in the form of two concentric rings appear at the bottom of the virtual object: the inner ring corresponds to the size property, and the outer ring corresponds to the orientation property.

[0129] c. Switch the control ring operation:

[0130] Long-press to pop up the property prompt control (default no selection).

[0131] Slightly move up and down to adjust the selection state of different areas in the property prompt control.

[0132] d. Select the property to be adjusted:

[0133] Swipe left and right to adjust the property of the virtual object.

[0134] When it comes to the size property, swiping left shrinks the virtual object, and swiping right enlarges the virtual object.
