[0014] Optionally, the split-screen recommendation interface may include a recommended application bar and an application bar that supports split-screen. The recommended application bar may be used to display icons of multiple applications that are frequently used by the user, or icons of multiple applications recommended according to the first application. The application bar that supports split-screen may be used to display icons of all applications that can support split-screen in the electronic device.

[0015] In some possible implementations, the above-mentioned display screen window switching method may also include: before receiving the user's operation on the first icon, the electronic device displays the interface of the first application in the form of a floating window through the display screen.

[0016] Through the solution of the present application, flexible switching of the screen display mode of the electronic device can be achieved, for example, switching from full-screen display to split-screen display, from floating window display to split-screen display, and of course from floating window display to full-screen display.

[0017] In some possible implementations, the first split screen window and the second split screen window may be respectively provided with a first icon. After the electronic device displays the interface of the second application in the second split screen window, the display screen window switching method may further include:

[0018] If the electronic device receives an operation of the split-screen control in the second split-screen window by the user, the electronic device displays one or more applications capable of supporting split-screen in the second split-screen window;

[0019] If the electronic device receives a selection operation of a third application among the one or more applications by the user, the electronic device replaces the display content of the second split-screen window with the interface of the third application.

[0020] The one or more applications may include an application recommended based on the first application.

[0021] It should be noted that the one or more applications triggered by the operation of the split-screen controls in the second split-screen window may be the same as the one or more applications triggered by the operation of the split-screen controls in the full-screen window mentioned above, or may be different. The specific application can be determined based on actual usage requirements and is not limited to this embodiment of the present application.

[0022] Through the present application scheme, the user can click the first icon in the split-screen window to trigger the display of split-screen controls and other controls for switching screen display modes in the split-screen window, and then click the split-screen controls to trigger the split-screen window replacement, thereby realizing flexible switching of the screen display mode of the electronic device.

[0023] In some possible implementations, the electronic device displays the interface of the first application in full screen on a display screen, including:

[0024] The electronic device displays the interface of the first application in full screen through the display screen, and displays a first floating window on the interface of the first application; wherein the first floating window displays the interface of the fourth application and the above-mentioned first icon.

[0025] In some possible implementations, after the electronic device displays the interface of the second application in the second split-screen window, the display screen window switching method may further include:

[0026] The electronic device displays the first floating window on the first split-screen window and / or the second split-screen window; or, the electronic device switches the first floating window to be displayed as a floating ball.

[0027] Through the scheme of the present application, in a scenario where a floating window is displayed on the interface of the first application displayed in full screen, it is possible to switch from full screen display to split screen display, and the floating window can remain displayed or shrink into a floating ball, thereby achieving flexible switching of the screen display format of the electronic device.

[0028] In some possible implementations, the display screen window switching method may further include:

[0029] The electronic device receives a drag operation on the first floating window by the user;

[0030] In response to the dragging operation, the electronic device updates the display position of the first floating window on the first split-screen window and / or the second split-screen window.

[0031] Among them, the floating window can be displayed on one split-screen window or at the junction of two split-screen windows.

[0032] Through the solution of this application, the floating window can support being dragged by the user and moved on the split-screen window, which is convenient for user operation.

[0033] In some possible implementations, after the electronic device displays the first floating window on the first split-screen window and / or the second split-screen window, the display screen window switching method may further include:

[0034] If the electronic device receives an operation of the user on the first icon in the first floating window, the electronic device displays a second control in the first floating window, where the second control includes the split-screen control;

[0035] The electronic device receives an operation of the user on the split-screen control in the first floating window;

[0036] If the area occupied by the first floating window on the first split-screen window is larger than the area occupied by the first floating window on the second split-screen window, the electronic device replaces the displayed content in the first split-screen window with the interface of the fourth application, and cancels the display of the first floating window; wherein the displayed content in the second split-screen window remains unchanged.

[0037] In some embodiments, the floating window is located on the right split-screen window. If the user needs to replace the right split-screen window with the floating window, the user can directly trigger the split-screen display in the floating window to achieve the purpose of replacing the right split-screen window with the floating window.

[0038] In some embodiments, the floating window is located on the left split-screen window. If the user needs to replace the right split-screen window with the floating window, the user can drag the floating window to the right split-screen window, and then trigger the split-screen display in the floating window, thereby achieving the purpose of replacing the right split-screen window with the floating window.

[0039] Through the solution of the present application, in the scenario where a floating window is displayed on a split-screen window, the split-screen window to be replaced can be determined according to the position of the floating window, so that the user can adjust the position of the floating window in the split-screen window according to actual needs, and then the user clicks the split-screen control in the floating window to trigger the floating window to replace the determined split-screen window. In this way, flexible switching of the screen display form of the electronic device can be achieved.

[0040] It should be noted that the second control in the floating window may be the same as the first control in the full-screen window; or may be different.

[0041] In some possible implementations, after the electronic device displays the first floating window on the first split-screen window and / or the second split-screen window, the display screen window switching method may further include:

[0042] If the electronic device receives an operation of the user on the first icon in the first floating window, the electronic device displays a second control in the first floating window, where the second control includes the split-screen control;

[0043] If the electronic device receives an operation of the split-screen control in the first floating window by the user, the electronic device displays first split-screen position prompt information and second split-screen position prompt information in the first floating window, where the first split-screen position prompt information corresponds to the first split-screen window, and the second split-screen position prompt information corresponds to the second split-screen window;

[0044] If the electronic device receives an operation of the user on the first split-screen position prompt information, the electronic device replaces the displayed content in the first split-screen window with the interface of the fourth application, and cancels the display of the first floating window; wherein the displayed content in the second split-screen window remains unchanged.

[0045] Through the solution of the present application, in a scenario where a floating window is displayed on a split-screen window, if the user clicks the split-screen control in the floating window, the electronic device will display a prompt message, prompting the user whether the left split-screen window or the right split-screen window needs to be replaced, so that the user can select the split-screen window to be replaced according to actual usage needs. In this way, flexible switching of the screen display form of the electronic device can be achieved.

[0046] In some possible implementations, the interface of the first application includes a first sub-interface and a second sub-interface of the first application; and the display screen window switching method may further include:

[0047] If the electronic device receives an operation of the user on the first icon in the first floating window, the electronic device displays the first control in the first floating window;

[0048] The electronic device receives an operation of a user on a split-screen control in the first floating window;

[0049] If the area occupied by the first floating window on the first sub-interface is larger than the area occupied by the first floating window on the second sub-interface, the electronic device will switch the display format of the first floating window on the interface of the first application to display the interface of the fourth application in the first split-screen window, and display the second sub-interface in the second split-screen window; wherein the first floating window is canceled.

[0050] Through the scheme of the present application, in a scenario where a floating window is displayed on a full-screen window and the full-screen window displays two interfaces of a certain application, the split-screen window to be replaced can be determined according to the position of the floating window, so that the user can adjust the position of the floating window in the split-screen window according to actual needs, and then the user clicks the split-screen control in the floating window to trigger the floating window to replace the determined split-screen window. In this way, flexible switching of the screen display form of the electronic device can be achieved.

[0051] In some possible implementations, when the first floating window and the second floating window are displayed on the desktop interface, the display screen window switching method may further include:

[0052] If the electronic device receives an operation of the user on the first icon in the first floating window, the electronic device displays a second control in the first floating window, where the second control includes the split-screen control;

[0053] If the electronic device receives an operation of the split-screen control in the first floating window by the user, the electronic device displays the interface in the first floating window in the first split-screen window, displays the split-screen recommendation interface in the second split-screen window, and switches the second floating window to be displayed as a floating ball; the split-screen recommendation interface includes one or more applications that can support split-screen;

[0054] If the electronic device receives a selection operation of the user on the fifth application in the split-screen recommendation interface, the electronic device displays the interface of the fifth application in the second split-screen window.

[0055] Through the solution of this application, in a scenario where two floating windows are displayed on the desktop interface, if the user clicks the split-screen control in one of the floating windows, recommended applications can be displayed for the user to choose. After the user selects an application, the display screen will switch to two split-screen windows, and the floating window that has not been operated will become a floating ball. In this way, flexible switching of the screen display form of the electronic device can be achieved.

[0056] In some possible implementations, the first control may also include a floating window control;

[0057] After the electronic device displays the first control, the display screen window switching method may further include:

[0058] If the electronic device receives an operation of the floating window control in the first control by the user, the electronic device switches the first application interface from being displayed in full screen to being displayed in a floating window on the desktop interface; or

[0059] If the electronic device receives an operation of the user on the floating window control in the first control, the electronic device will switch the display form of the first floating window displayed on the interface of the first application to display the first floating window and the second floating window on the desktop interface, and the second floating window includes the interface of the first application.

[0060] Through the solution of the present application, it is possible to switch from full-screen display to floating window display and display the floating window in the desktop interface, thus achieving flexible switching of the screen display form of the electronic device.

[0098] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0099] The term "and / or" in this article is a description of the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that there can be three relationships. For example, A and / or B can represent: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. The symbol " / " in this article indicates that the associated objects are in an or relationship, for example, A / B means A or B.

[0100] The terms "first" and "second" in the specification and claims herein are used to distinguish different objects rather than to describe a specific order of the objects. For example, a first split-screen window and a second split-screen window are used to distinguish different split-screen windows rather than to describe a specific order of the split-screen windows.

[0101] In the embodiments of the present application, words such as "exemplary" or "for example" are used to indicate examples, illustrations or descriptions. Any embodiment or design described as "exemplary" or "for example" in the embodiments of the present application should not be interpreted as being more preferred or more advantageous than other embodiments or designs. Specifically, the use of words such as "exemplary" or "for example" is intended to present related concepts in a specific way.

[0102] In the description of the embodiments of the present application, unless otherwise specified, "multiple" means two or more than two. For example, multiple processing units refer to two or more processing units, etc.; multiple elements refer to two or more elements, etc.

[0103] Currently, when users use electronic devices with larger display screens, such as foldable screen devices and tablet computers, these electronic devices usually have a split-screen function, but users may not know how and when to use the split-screen function, which affects the user experience.

[0104] In view of this, an embodiment of the present application provides a display screen window switching method. Through the solution of the present application, for an electronic device with a larger display screen, a control for switching the display mode can be called out in the current window in response to a user operation, and then according to the user's selection operation of the control, the display screen can be flexibly switched between full-screen display mode, split-screen display mode and floating window display mode, and the split-screen window content can be freely switched when the split-screen display is displayed. Among them, when the user selects the split-screen display, the electronic device can automatically recommend one or more applications that can support the split-screen for the user to choose. The solution of the present application can improve the convenience when switching the large-screen display mode, thereby improving the user experience.

[0105] It should be noted that the display screen window switching method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied not only to electronic devices with foldable screens, but also to electronic devices with conventional display screens (i.e., display screens that do not support screen folding), such as mobile phones or tablet computers, etc. The specific method can be determined according to actual usage requirements, and the embodiment of the present application is not limited thereto.

[0106] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown in (a), when the display screen of the electronic device is displayed in full screen mode, the display screen is presented as a display window, which can be used to display a certain interface content. Optionally, when the display screen is displayed in full screen mode, the desktop interface or the interface content of a certain application can be displayed. Among them, when the display screen displays the interface content of application A in full screen mode, the full screen display mode can be recorded as A.

[0107] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown in (b), when the display screen of the electronic device is displayed in a split-screen display mode, the display screen is divided into two display windows, each used to display different interface contents. For example, when the display screen is displayed in a split-screen display mode, the interfaces of different applications can be displayed in the two windows. For ease of description, the two windows can be referred to as a first split-screen window and a second split-screen window, respectively. The display contents in the first split-screen window and the second split-screen window can constitute a split-screen combination or a split-screen pair.

[0108] Exemplarily, assuming that the first split-screen window displays the interface content of application A, and the second split-screen window displays the interface content of application B, the split-screen combination can be recorded as A|B.

[0109] In some embodiments, Figure 1As shown in (c), when the display screen of the electronic device is displayed in a floating window display mode, the floating window can be displayed on the full-screen window; or, the floating window can also be displayed on the split-screen window. Optionally, the floating window can move on the full-screen window or between the two split-screen windows according to the user's drag operation.

[0110] For example, assuming that in full-screen display mode, the full-screen window displays the interface content of application A, and the interface content of application C is displayed on the full-screen window in a floating window display mode (denoted as []), then the combination can be denoted as A[C]. [C] indicates that the interface content of application C is displayed in the floating window.

[0111] As another example, assuming that in split-screen display mode, the first split-screen window and the second split-screen window display the interface content of application A and the interface content of application B respectively, and the interface content of application C is displayed on the first split-screen window in a floating window display mode, then the split-screen combination can be recorded as A[C]|B.

[0112] It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present application, if an application supports a split-screen display mode or function, the application can be displayed in the above split-screen display mode; if an application supports a floating window display mode or function, the application can be displayed in the above floating window display mode. Optionally, the desktop interface can support a split-screen display mode or function, and support a floating window display mode or function.

[0113] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, a full-screen control (such as a full-screen control) for triggering full-screen display can be directly set in the full-screen window, split-screen window, and floating window. Figure 2 ), a split-screen control for triggering split-screen display (such as Figure 2 ) and the floating window control used to trigger the floating window display (as shown in Figure 2 ).

[0114] During actual operation, the user can select the full-screen control to trigger the display to display in full-screen mode, or select the split-screen control to trigger the display to display in split-screen mode, or select the floating window control to trigger the display to display in floating window mode according to actual usage needs.

[0115] Optionally, a display mode switching entrance may be set in the full screen window, split screen window, and floating window. By operating on the display mode switching entrance, the display may be triggered. Figure 2 The full screen control X, split screen control Y and floating window control Z shown in (a) or the display shown in Figure 2 The full screen control X, split screen control Y, floating window control Z, minimize control M and window close control N shown in (b) are shown in FIG. Figure 2 For illustrative purposes only, the embodiments of the present application do not limit the number and form of the displayed controls.

[0116] Among them, the above-mentioned display mode switching entrance can be a bar or circular icon, or any other possible icon, which can be determined according to actual usage requirements and is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0117] For example, the display mode switching entry may be called a first icon, which is used to represent a control for switching the screen display form.

[0118] For example, Figure 1 As shown in (a), in the full screen display mode, in the full screen window 10, the display mode switching entrance is a bar icon 11. For example, if the user operates (such as clicking or sliding) on ​​the bar icon 11 in the full screen window 10, a pop-up window such as Figure 2 The full-screen control X, split-screen control Y and floating window control Z are shown.

[0119] For example, Figure 1 As shown in (b), in the split-screen display mode, in the first split-screen window 12, the display mode switching entrance is a bar icon 13; in the second split-screen window 14, the display mode switching entrance is a bar icon 15. For example, if the user operates (such as clicking or sliding) on ​​the bar icon 13 in the first split-screen window 12, a pop-up window such as the following may be displayed in the first split-screen window 12. Figure 2 Similarly, if the user operates (for example, clicks or slides) on the bar icon 15 in the second split-screen window 14, a pop-up window such as the following may be displayed in the second split-screen window 14: Figure 2 The full-screen control X, split-screen control Y and floating window control Z shown in (a).

[0120] For example, Figure 1 As shown in (c), in the floating window display mode, a floating window 16 exists on the full screen window 10, and in the floating window 16, the display mode switching entrance is a bar icon 17. For example, if the user operates (such as clicking or sliding) on ​​the bar icon 17 in the floating window 16, a pop-up window such as Figure 2 The full screen control X, split screen control Y, floating window control Z, minimize control M and window close control N shown in (b).

[0121] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the electronic device may use dynamic effects to display bar icons in different windows in the initial stage (for example, when opening an application for the first N times) to prompt the user that they can use the entrance to call out full-screen controls, split-screen controls, and floating window controls to switch display modes.

[0122] It should be noted that some applications support full screen, split screen and floating window switching display, while some applications may not support full screen, split screen and floating window switching display. For applications that support full screen, split screen and floating window switching display, a bar icon (bar) may be displayed in the top area of ​​the window displaying the application interface (for example, it may be a full screen window, a split screen window, or a floating window) for user operation. For applications that do not support full screen, split screen and floating window switching display, the bar icon (bar) is not displayed in the window displaying the application interface.

[0123] Optionally, for applications that support switching between full-screen, split-screen and floating window displays, when the application is opened and displayed in the window for the first three times, the bar icon in the window will flash for a period of time (e.g., 5 seconds) to prompt the user to try to operate the bar icon to further call out full-screen controls, split-screen controls and floating window controls.

[0124] Optionally, for applications that support full-screen, split-screen, and floating window switching displays, the bar icon in the window where the application is located may no longer flash when the application is opened again after the bar icon has flashed a prompt number of times greater than or equal to a preset number (for example, 5 times), or after the electronic device detects that the user has operated on the bar icon.

[0125] Exemplarily, when the display screen displays a full-screen window N times before (for example, the last 3 times), the display screen displays the bar icon at the top of the full-screen window with a dynamic effect. Exemplarily, when the display screen displays a split-screen window N times before (for example, the last 3 times), the display screen displays the bar icon at the top of the split-screen window with a dynamic effect. Exemplarily, when the display screen displays a floating window N times before (for example, the last 3 times), the display screen displays the bar icon at the top of the floating window with a dynamic effect. In this way, the user can be prompted to switch the display mode through the entrance, thereby improving the user experience.

[0126] It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application do not limit the display properties of full-screen controls, split-screen controls, and floating window controls (such as display position, display size, display style, etc.), nor do they limit the display properties of the display mode switching entry (such as display position, display size, display style, etc.). The specific display properties can be determined based on actual usage requirements, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit them.

[0127] The above describes the display window schematic diagrams of the full-screen display mode, split-screen display mode and floating window display mode provided in the embodiments of the present application, and introduces the full-screen control, split-screen control and floating window control provided in the embodiments of the present application for these display modes. The following describes possible implementation methods of the display screen window switching method provided in the embodiments of the present application based on the full-screen control, split-screen control and floating window control provided in the embodiments of the present application.

[0128] Through the method for controlling the display screen to switch the display mode provided in the embodiment of the present application, it is possible to freely switch between the three modes of full-screen display, split-screen display and floating window display according to the actual usage needs of the user.

[0129] In some embodiments, it is possible to switch from a full-screen display mode to a split-screen display mode, such as A→A|B; it is also possible to switch from a split-screen display mode to a full-screen display mode, such as A|B→A, or A|B→B.

[0130] In some embodiments, it is possible to switch from a full-screen display mode to a floating window display mode, for example, A→A[C]; it is also possible to switch from a floating window display mode to a full-screen display mode, for example, A[C]→C.

[0131] In some embodiments, a floating window display mode can be adopted in a split-screen display mode, for example, A|B→A[B]; or the floating window display mode can be switched to a split-screen display mode, for example, A[B]→A|B.

[0132] In some embodiments, in a scenario where the display screen is displayed in a split-screen display mode, the display content in the split-screen window can be replaced according to the actual usage needs of the user.

[0133] For example, in the scenario of split-screen combination A|B, if the user selects the split-screen control in the second split-screen window and selects another application (such as application C), the electronic device can update the display content in the second split-screen window to the interface content of application 2, and the display content of the first split-screen window remains unchanged. In other words, in response to the user operation, the electronic device can replace the split-screen combination A|B with the split-screen combination A|C.

[0134] In some embodiments, in a scenario where the display screen is displayed in a floating window display mode, the display position of the floating window can be changed according to a dragging operation of the user.

[0135] For example, in the scenario of split-screen combination A[C]|B, if the user presses on floating window [C] and drags floating window [C] toward the second split-screen window, the electronic device can move the display position of floating window [C] from the area where the first split-screen window is located to the area where the second split-screen window is located. That is, in response to the user operation, the electronic device can update the split-screen combination A[C]|B to the split-screen combination A|B[C].

[0136] In some embodiments, when the display screen switches from the floating window display mode to the split screen display mode, the display position of the newly added split screen window can be determined according to the display position of the floating window. For example, A|B[C]→A|C; or A[C]|B→C|B; or A|A1[C]→A|C. The specific switching process will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0137] In some embodiments, when a floating window is opened on a split-screen window of a display screen (for example, A|B[C]):

[0138] If the user clicks the floating window control on the split-screen window where application B is located, the split-screen window where application B is located is updated to a floating window, and the split-screen window where application A is located is updated to a full-screen window, that is: A|B[C]→A[B][C].

[0139] If the user clicks the floating window control on the split-screen window where application A is located, the split-screen window where application A is located is updated to a floating window, and the split-screen window where application B is located is updated to a full-screen window, that is: A|B[C]→B[A][C].

[0140] It should be noted that the switching scenarios between the above full-screen display mode, split-screen display mode and floating window display mode are all listed as examples. It can be understood that in actual implementation, the embodiments of the present application include but are not limited to the above switching scenarios, and may also include any other possible switching scenarios, which can be determined based on actual usage requirements and are not limited by the embodiments of the present application.

[0141] The execution subject of the display screen window switching method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be an electronic device, or a functional module and / or functional entity in the electronic device that can implement the shooting control method based on the foldable screen, and the present application scheme can be implemented in hardware and / or software, which can be determined according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the present application is not limited. Taking an electronic device as an example, the shooting control method based on the foldable screen provided in the embodiment of the present application is exemplarily described in combination with the accompanying drawings.

[0142] In the following, the display screen window switching method provided in the embodiments of the present application will be exemplified by taking the scenario of switching from a full-screen display mode to a split-screen display mode or a floating window display mode (the first embodiment), the scenario of switching from a split-screen display mode to a full-screen display mode or a floating window display mode (the second embodiment), and the scenario of switching from a floating window display mode to a full-screen display mode or a split-screen display mode (the third embodiment) as examples.

[0143] First embodiment

[0144] The display screen window switching method provided in the first embodiment is applied to the scenario of switching from a full-screen display mode to a split-screen display mode or a floating window display mode. The following will be combined with multiple exemplary scenarios to exemplarily illustrate the solution provided in the first embodiment of the present application.

[0145] Scenario 1: 1 app is displayed in full screen → 2 apps are displayed in split screen.

[0146] Trigger action: The user clicks the split-screen control in the full-screen window and selects an application in the split-screen recommendation interface that pops up.

[0147] Figure 3 1 is a flow chart of a display screen window switching method provided in the first embodiment of the present application. Figure 3 As shown, the method includes the following steps S101-S104.

[0148] S101, the electronic device displays the interface of the first application in full screen on the display screen.

[0149] Among them, the interface of the first application can be the main interface or sub-interface of an application installed in the electronic device, or the main interface plus the sub-interface of an application displayed in a split screen manner, or two different sub-interfaces of an application displayed in a split screen manner.

[0150] Optionally, the first application may also be a desktop application. Correspondingly, the interface of the first application is a desktop interface.

[0151] S102, in response to a first operation by the user, the electronic device displays a full-screen control, a split-screen control, and a floating window control on a display screen.

[0152] Among them, the user's first operation is used to trigger the display of the full-screen control, split-screen control and floating window control. Since the full-screen control, split-screen control and floating window control can be multiple sub-controls in one control in terms of expression, the user's first operation can be used to trigger the display of the first control, and the first control can include the full-screen control, the split-screen control or the floating window control.

[0153] The embodiment of the present application does not limit the form of the first operation. Exemplarily, the first operation may be a touch input by a user on a display mode switching entrance (e.g., a bar icon or a first icon), or a voice input by a user (e.g., voice input: switch display mode), or other possible inputs.

[0154] S103, in response to the user's second operation on the split-screen control, the electronic device displays one or more applications that can support split-screen on the display screen.

[0155] The second operation is used to select the split-screen control. Exemplarily, the second operation may be a click operation of the user on the split-screen control.

[0156] The electronic device can recommend one or more applications that can support split screen to the user according to the split screen requirement of the user for the user to choose. The one or more applications can include one or more applications that can support split screen that have been downloaded in the electronic device, and can also include one or more applications that can support split screen that have not been downloaded in the electronic device.

[0157] Optionally, the one or more applications mentioned above may be presented in a window or interface in the form of application icons, and the window or interface is independent of the interface of the first application.

[0158] S104, in response to the user's third operation on the second application, the electronic device displays a first split-screen window and a second split-screen window in different areas of the display screen, wherein the first split-screen window displays the interface of the first application, and the second split-screen window displays the interface of the second application.

[0159] The second application may be any one of the one or more applications recommended to support split screen, and the second application is different from the first application. The third operation may be an operation for selecting an icon of the second application, such as a click operation.

[0160] It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application do not limit the relative display positions of the first split screen window and the second split screen window on the display screen. For example, the first split screen window and the second split screen window can be displayed side by side adjacent to each other, or the first split screen window and the second split screen window can be displayed side by side adjacent to each other up and down.

[0161] It should also be noted that the embodiments of the present application do not limit the relative display sizes of the first split-screen window and the second split-screen window on the display screen. For example, the display size of the first split-screen window is the same as the display size of the second split-screen window, or the display size of the first split-screen window is larger than the display size of the second split-screen window.

[0162] It should also be noted that the embodiment of the present application does not limit the display form of the first split screen window and the second split screen window on the display screen. For example, the first split screen window and the second split screen window can both be rectangular windows.

[0163] Through the solution provided in the first embodiment of the present application, in a full-screen display scenario, in response to the user's split-screen demand, the split-screen control can be quickly called up, and when the user clicks the split-screen control to confirm the need for split-screen display, the electronic device recommends one or more applications in the electronic device that support split-screen display for the user to choose; after the user selects the application, the display screen can be triggered to switch from full-screen display mode to split-screen display mode, and the switching operation is convenient and quick.

[0164] Combine the following Figure 4 The interface interaction process of scenario 1 in the first embodiment in actual application is exemplarily described.

[0165] like Figure 4 As shown in (a), the display screen of the electronic device is in full-screen display mode, and the interface of a certain application (such as a note application) is displayed in the full-screen window 20. Among them, a display mode switching entrance is displayed in the full-screen window 20, for example, the bar icon 21 (also called the first icon) is used as an example for exemplary description.

[0166] When the electronic device receives the user's operation on the bar icon 21, such as Figure 4 As shown in (b), the electronic device brings up multiple controls for switching display modes, such as a full-screen control X, a split-screen control Y, and a floating window control Z.

[0167] When the electronic device receives the user's operation on the split-screen control Y, such as Figure 4 As shown in (c), the electronic device can pop up a split screen recommendation interface 23 and display icons of multiple applications that can support split screen through the split screen recommendation interface 23. At this time, the full screen window 20 can be reduced and displayed as a split screen window 22, which is displayed side by side with the split screen recommendation interface 23.

[0168] Among them, the split-screen recommendation interface 23 may include a recommended application bar and an application bar that supports split-screen. The recommended application bar may display icons of multiple applications that are frequently used by users, or icons of multiple applications that match the currently used application. The application bar that supports split-screen may display icons of all applications that can support split-screen in the electronic device. These applications may be arranged according to the recommended priority of the application, for example, each application may be arranged in order from high to low according to the recommended priority. The recommended priority of the application may be determined based on user behavior data such as the frequency of use or the length of use of the application.

[0169] When the electronic device receives a user operation on an application in the split-screen recommendation interface 23 (for example, clicking on the album application icon), Figure 4 As shown in (d), the electronic device displays two split-screen windows 22 and 24, the interface of the note application is displayed in the first split-screen window 22, and the interface of the album application is displayed in the second split-screen window 24.

[0170] Through the above scheme, in a full-screen display scenario, when the user clicks on the split-screen control, the electronic device can confirm that the user has a split-screen requirement, and then recommend applications that support split-screen for the user to choose; once the user selects an application, it can trigger the display screen to switch from full-screen display mode to split-screen display mode.

[0171] Scenario 2: Full-screen window + 1 floating window → 2 split-screen windows + 1 floating ball.

[0172] Trigger action: The user clicks the split-screen control in the full-screen window and selects an application in the split-screen recommendation interface that pops up.

[0173] Combine the following Figure 5 The interface interaction process of scenario 2 in the first embodiment in actual application is exemplarily described.

[0174] like Figure 5 As shown in (a), a full-screen window is displayed on the display screen of the electronic device, and a floating window is displayed on the full-screen window. When the electronic device receives an operation of the user on the bar icon in the full-screen window, as shown in Figure 5 As shown in (b), the electronic device brings up multiple controls for switching display modes, such as a full-screen control X, a split-screen control Y, and a floating window control Z.

[0175] When the electronic device receives the user's operation on the split-screen control Y, such as Figure 5 As shown in (c), the electronic device can pop up a split-screen recommendation interface and display icons of multiple applications that can support split-screen through the split-screen recommendation interface. At this time, the full-screen window can be reduced to a split-screen window and displayed side by side with the split-screen recommendation interface; and the floating window can be reduced to a floating ball, for example, it can be displayed in an area close to the side of the display screen to avoid blocking the current display content of the display screen.

[0176] When the electronic device receives a user operation on an application in the split-screen recommendation interface (for example, clicking on the album application icon), Figure 5 As shown in (d), the electronic device displays two split-screen windows, one of which displays the interface of the note application, and the other displays the interface of the photo album application. At this time, the floating ball remains displayed on the split-screen window.

[0177] Optionally, the floating ball can be dragged by the user to other areas of the display screen. Optionally, the floating ball can be triggered by the user to be enlarged into a floating window. Optionally, the floating ball can be triggered by the user to be closed and no longer displayed.

[0178] Through the above solution, in the scenario of full-screen window + 1 floating window, when the user clicks the split-screen control in the full-screen window, the electronic device can confirm that the user has a split-screen requirement, and then recommend applications that support split-screen for the user to choose; once the user selects an application, it can trigger the transformation from one full-screen window to two split-screen windows (displaying two application interfaces respectively), and the floating window can be reduced to a floating ball.

[0179] Scenario 3: Full screen window → desktop + floating window.

[0180] Trigger action: Click the split-screen control in the full-screen window.

[0181] Combine the following Figure 6 The interface interaction process of scenario 3 in the first embodiment in actual application is exemplarily described.

[0182] like Figure 6 As shown in (a) of FIG. 1 , a full-screen window is displayed on the display screen of the electronic device. When the electronic device receives an operation by the user on the bar icon in the full-screen window, as shown in FIG. Figure 6 As shown in (b), the electronic device brings up multiple controls for switching display modes, such as a full-screen control X, a split-screen control Y, and a floating window control Z.

[0183] like Figure 6 As shown in (c), the electronic device receives the user's operation on the floating window control Z. Then, as Figure 6 As shown in (d), the full-screen window is reduced to a floating window, and the display screen returns to the desktop interface. At this time, a floating window is displayed on the desktop interface.

[0184] Through the above scheme, in the scenario where the display screen displays a full-screen window, the user clicks the floating window control in the full-screen window to trigger the display screen to return to the desktop interface, and the floating window transformed from the full-screen window will be displayed on the desktop interface.

[0185] Scenario 4: Full screen window + 1 floating window → Desktop + 2 floating windows.

[0186] Trigger action: Click the floating window control in the full-screen window.

[0187] Combine the following Figure 7 The interface interaction process of scenario 4 in the first embodiment in actual application is exemplarily described.

[0188] like Figure 7As shown in (a), a full-screen window is displayed on the display screen of the electronic device. The display content in the full-screen window is the interface of a certain application, and a floating window is displayed on the full-screen window. When the electronic device receives an operation of the user on the bar icon in the full-screen window, Figure 7 As shown in (b), the electronic device brings up multiple controls for switching display modes, such as a full-screen control X, a split-screen control Y, and a floating window control Z.

[0189] like Figure 7 As shown in (c), the electronic device receives the user's operation on the floating window control Z. Then, as Figure 7 As shown in (d), the full screen window is reduced to a floating window, and the display screen returns to the desktop interface, and the originally displayed floating window remains displayed. At this time, two floating windows are displayed on the desktop interface.

[0190] Through the above scheme, in a scenario where a floating window is displayed on a full-screen window, the user clicks the floating window control in the full-screen window to trigger the display screen to return to the desktop interface, and the desktop interface will display the originally displayed floating window and the floating window transformed from the full-screen window.

[0191] Second embodiment

[0192] The display screen window switching method provided in the second embodiment can be applied to the scenario of switching from a split-screen display mode to a full-screen display mode or a floating window display mode. The following will be combined with multiple exemplary scenarios to exemplify the solution provided in the second embodiment of the present application.

[0193] Scenario 1: Split screen display → Split screen window replacement.

[0194] Trigger action: The user selects a split-screen control in a split-screen window and selects an application in the split-screen recommendation interface that pops up.

[0195] Figure 8 2 is a flow chart of a display screen window switching method provided in the second embodiment of the present application. Figure 3 ,like Figure 8 As shown, after the above step 104, the method may further include the following steps S105-S107.

[0196] S105, in response to a fourth operation performed by the user on the second split-screen window, the electronic device displays a full-screen control, a split-screen control and a floating window control on the second split-screen window.

[0197] The fourth operation of the user is similar to the first operation, and is used to trigger the display of the full-screen control, the split-screen control, and the floating window control. Exemplarily, the fourth operation can be an operation of the user on the display mode switching entrance (e.g., a bar control) of the second split-screen window, or can be a voice input operation of the user (e.g., voice input: switch display mode), or can be other possible input operations.

[0198] S106: In response to the user's fifth operation on the split-screen control, the electronic device displays one or more applications that can support split-screen on the second split-screen window.

[0199] The fifth operation is similar to the second operation and is used to select the split-screen control. For example, the fifth operation may be a click operation of the user on the split-screen control.

[0200] The electronic device can recommend one or more applications that can support split screen to the user according to the split screen requirement of the user for the user to choose. Similarly, the one or more applications can include one or more applications that can support split screen that have been downloaded in the electronic device, and can also include one or more applications that can support split screen that have not been downloaded in the electronic device.

[0201] Optionally, the one or more applications mentioned above may be presented in the second split-screen window in the form of application icons.

[0202] S107, in response to the user's sixth operation on the third application, the electronic device continues to display the interface of the first application in the first split-screen window, and updates the content in the second split-screen window to display the interface of the third application.

[0203] The third application may be any one of the one or more applications recommended to support split screen, and the third application is different from the first application and the second application. The sixth operation is similar to the third operation and is used to select the icon of the third application.

[0204] Through the solution provided by the second embodiment of the present application, in a split-screen display scenario, in response to the user's operation on a split-screen window, the split-screen control can be quickly called up, and when the user clicks the split-screen control, the electronic device continues to recommend one or more applications in the electronic device that support split-screen display for the user to choose; after the user selects an application, the content in the split-screen window can be triggered to switch, and the switching operation is convenient and fast. Fig. 9 The interface interaction process of scenario 1 in the second embodiment in actual application is exemplarily described.

[0205] like Fig. 9As shown in (a), the display screen of the electronic device is in a split-screen display mode, the interface of the note application is displayed in the first split-screen window 22, and the interface of the photo album application is displayed in the second split-screen window 24. Among them, a bar icon 25 is displayed in the first split-screen window 22, and a bar icon 26 is displayed in the second split-screen window 24.

[0206] For example, when the electronic device receives an operation by the user on the bar icon 26 in the second split screen window 24, Fig. 9 As shown in (b), the electronic device calls out controls for switching display modes in the second split-screen window 24, such as a full-screen control X, a split-screen control Y, and a floating window control Z. Since the current display mode is a split-screen display mode, the split-screen control Y is highlighted; for example, compared with the background colors of the full-screen control X and the floating window control Z, the background color of the split-screen control Y is darker.

[0207] like Fig. 9 As shown in (b), the electronic device receives the user's operation on the split-screen control Y; wherein, since the split-screen control Y is selected, the split-screen control Y remains highlighted. Fig. 9 As shown in (c), in response to the user's operation on the split-screen control Y, the electronic device can display a split-screen recommendation interface 23 in the second split-screen window 24, and the split-screen recommendation interface 23 can display icons of multiple applications that can support split-screen. Optionally, when the split-screen recommendation interface 23 is called up in the second split-screen window 24, the second split-screen window 24 is hidden.

[0208] When the electronic device receives a user operation on an application in the split-screen recommendation interface 23 (for example, clicking on a calculator application icon), Fig. 9 As shown in (d), the electronic device keeps displaying the interface of the note application in the first split-screen window 22, redisplays the second split-screen window 24, and updates the content in the second split-screen window 24 to display the interface of the calculator application, thereby realizing content switching of the split-screen windows.

[0209] Through the above scheme, in a split-screen display scenario, when a user clicks on a split-screen control in a split-screen window, the electronic device can display applications that support split-screen in the split-screen window for the user to choose; once the user selects an application, the split-screen window can be triggered to switch content.

[0210] It should be noted that Figure 8 and Fig. 9The explanation is all based on the example of a user operating on the second split-screen window to trigger switching of the content in the second split-screen window. It can be understood that in actual implementation, the embodiments of the present application include but are not limited to the above-mentioned methods, and may also include other implementation methods. For example, if the user operates on the first split-screen window, it can trigger the display of multiple controls on the first split-screen window; if the user selects a split-screen control among multiple controls, it can trigger the recommendation and display of one or more applications that can support split-screen on the first split-screen window; if the user selects a fourth application among one or more applications, it can trigger the updating of the content in the first split-screen window to the interface of the fourth application, and keep displaying the content in the second split-screen window.

[0211] Scenario 2: Split-screen display → Full-screen display.

[0212] Trigger action: The user selects a full-screen control in a split-screen window.

[0213] Optionally, in some embodiments, in a split-screen display scenario, if the user needs to switch the split-screen window to a full-screen window, the user can click the full-screen control in one of the two split-screen windows to trigger the split-screen window operated by the user to be enlarged and displayed as a full-screen window, and the split-screen window not operated by the user is hidden.

[0214] For example, in a split-screen display scenario, when a user clicks on a full-screen control in a first split-screen window, the electronic device can control the display screen to switch from a split-screen display mode to a full-screen display mode, wherein the first split-screen window is enlarged to become a full-screen window, and the second split-screen window is hidden and not displayed. Alternatively, when a user clicks on a full-screen control in a second split-screen window, the second split-screen window is enlarged to become a full-screen window, and the first split-screen window is hidden and not displayed.

[0215] Combine the following Fig.10 The interface interaction process of scenario 2 in the second embodiment in actual application is exemplarily described.

[0216] like Fig.10 As shown in (a), the display screen of the electronic device displays two split-screen windows, one split-screen window displays the interface of the note application, and the other split-screen window displays the interface of the photo album application.

[0217] When the electronic device receives an operation from the user on a bar icon in a split-screen window, such as Fig.10 As shown in (b), the electronic device calls out controls for switching display modes in the split-screen window, such as a full-screen control X, a split-screen control Y, and a floating window control Z. Among them, since the current display mode is a split-screen display mode, the split-screen control Y is highlighted.

[0218] like Fig.10As shown in (c), the electronic device receives the user's operation on the full-screen control X; wherein, since the full-screen control X is selected, the full-screen control X is highlighted, and the split-screen control Y is no longer highlighted.

[0219] like Fig.10 As shown in (d), in response to the user's operation on the full-screen control X, the electronic device switches the split-screen window to a full-screen window, and the full-screen window displays the interface of the note application. At this time, the other split-screen window is hidden or canceled.

[0220] Through the above solution, in a split-screen display scenario, the user clicks on the full-screen control in a split-screen window to trigger the display screen to quickly switch from the split-screen display mode to the full-screen display mode.

[0221] Scenario 3: Split-screen display → full-screen window + floating window.

[0222] Trigger action: The user selects a floating window control in a split-screen window.

[0223] Fig.11 2 is a flow chart of a display screen window switching method provided in the second embodiment of the present application. Figure 3 ,like Fig.11 As shown, after the above step 104, the method may further include the following steps S108 and S109.

[0224] S108, in response to the user's seventh operation on the second split-screen window, the electronic device displays a full-screen control, a split-screen control and a floating window control on the second split-screen window.

[0225] In some embodiments, in a split-screen display scenario, if the user needs to switch the split-screen window to a floating window, the user can click the floating window control in one of the two split-screen windows to trigger the split-screen window to switch to a floating window.

[0226] The seventh operation of the user is similar to the first operation, and is used to trigger the display of the full-screen control, the split-screen control, and the floating window control. Exemplarily, the seventh operation can be an operation of the user on the bar icon of the second split-screen window, or can be a voice input operation of the user (e.g., voice input: switch display mode), or can be other possible input operations.

[0227] S109, in response to the user's eighth operation on the floating window control, the electronic device enlarges the first split-screen window and displays it as a full-screen window, and reduces the second split-screen window and displays it as a floating window, which is located above the full-screen window.

[0228] The eighth operation is used to select the floating window control. Exemplarily, the eighth operation may be a click operation of the user on the floating window control.

[0229] Through the above scheme, in a split-screen display scenario, when the user clicks on the floating window control in the first split-screen window, the electronic device can control the display screen to switch from a split-screen display mode to a floating window display mode, wherein the first split-screen window is reduced in size and becomes a floating window, and the second split-screen window is enlarged and becomes a full-screen window, and the floating window is displayed above the full-screen window.

[0230] It should be noted that Fig.11 The example used in the description is that the user clicks the floating window control on the second split-screen window, triggering the second split-screen window to shrink and display as a floating window, and the first split-screen window to be enlarged and displayed as a full-screen window; it can be understood that in actual implementation, if the user clicks the floating window control on the first split-screen window, it can trigger the first split-screen window to shrink and display as a floating window, and the second split-screen window to be enlarged and displayed as a full-screen window.

[0231] Combine the following Fig.12 The interface interaction process of scenario 3 in the second embodiment in actual application is exemplarily described.

[0232] like Fig.12 As shown in (a), the display screen of the electronic device is in a split-screen display mode, and the interface 22 of the note application is displayed in the first split-screen window 22, and the interface of the album application is displayed in the second split-screen window 24. Among them, a bar icon 25 is displayed in the first split-screen window 22, and a bar icon 26 is displayed in the second split-screen window 24.

[0233] When the electronic device receives the user's operation on the bar icon 26, such as Fig.12 As shown in (b), the electronic device calls out controls for switching display modes in the second split-screen window 24, such as a full-screen control X, a split-screen control Y, and a floating window control Z. Since the current display mode is a split-screen display mode, the split-screen control Y is highlighted, for example, compared with the background colors of the full-screen control X and the floating window control Z, the background color of the split-screen control Y is darker.

[0234] like Fig.12 As shown in (c), the electronic device receives the user's operation on the floating window control Z. At this time, since the floating window control Z is selected, the background color of the floating window control Z becomes darker, and the background color of the split-screen control Y becomes lighter.

[0235] Then, if Fig.12As shown in (d), in response to the user's operation on the floating window control Z, the electronic device updates the first split screen window 22 to display as a full screen window 27, and updates the second split screen window 24 to display as a floating window 28. The full screen window 27 displays the interface of the note application, and the floating window 28 displays the interface of the album application.

[0236] Through the above solution, in a split-screen display scenario, the user clicks on a floating window control in a split-screen window to trigger the display screen to quickly switch from the split-screen display mode to the floating window display mode.

[0237] It should be noted that Fig.12 The example in which the user clicks the floating window control on the second split-screen window triggers the second split-screen window to be displayed in floating window mode, and the first split-screen window is updated and displayed as a full-screen window is used for explanation; it can be understood that in actual implementation, if the user clicks the floating window control on the first split-screen window, it can trigger the first split-screen window to be displayed in floating window mode, and the second split-screen window can be updated and displayed as a full-screen window.

[0238] Scenario 4: Split-screen display + 1 floating window → Full-screen display + 1 floating window.

[0239] Trigger action: The user selects a full-screen control in a split-screen window.

[0240] Combine the following Fig.13 The interface interaction process of scenario 4 in the second embodiment in actual application is exemplarily described.

[0241] like Fig.13 As shown in (a), the display screen of the electronic device displays two split-screen windows, and a floating window is displayed on the split-screen windows.

[0242] When the electronic device receives an operation from the user on a bar icon in a split-screen window, such as Fig.13 As shown in (b), the electronic device calls out controls for switching display modes in the split-screen window, such as a full-screen control X, a split-screen control Y, and a floating window control Z. Among them, since the current display mode is a split-screen display mode, the split-screen control Y is highlighted.

[0243] like Fig.13 As shown in (c), the electronic device receives the user's operation on the full-screen control X; wherein, since the full-screen control X is selected, the full-screen control X is highlighted, and the split-screen control Y is no longer highlighted.

[0244] like Fig.13As shown in (d), in response to the user's operation on the full-screen control X, the electronic device switches the split-screen window to a full-screen window. At this time, the other split-screen window is hidden or canceled, and the floating window remains displayed.

[0245] Through the above solution, in the split-screen window + floating window scenario, the user clicks the full-screen control in a split-screen window to trigger the display screen to quickly switch from split-screen display mode to full-screen display mode, and the floating window remains displayed.

[0246] It should be noted that Fig.13 The example in which the user clicks the full-screen control on the first split-screen window triggers the first split-screen window to be updated and displayed as a full-screen window, and the second split-screen window is hidden is used for explanation; it can be understood that in actual implementation, if the user clicks the full-screen control on the second split-screen window, it can trigger the second split-screen window to be updated and displayed as a full-screen window, and the first split-screen window is hidden.

[0247] Scenario 5: Split-screen display + 1 floating window → Full-screen display + 2 floating windows.

[0248] Trigger action: The user selects a floating window control in a split-screen window.

[0249] Combine the following Fig.14 The interface interaction process of scenario 5 in the second embodiment in actual application is exemplarily described.

[0250] like Fig.14 As shown in (a), the display screen of the electronic device displays two split-screen windows, and a floating window is displayed on the split-screen windows.

[0251] When the electronic device receives an operation from the user on a bar icon in a split-screen window, such as Fig.14 As shown in (b), the electronic device calls out controls for switching display modes in the split-screen window, such as a full-screen control X, a split-screen control Y, and a floating window control Z. Among them, since the current display mode is a split-screen display mode, the split-screen control Y is highlighted.

[0252] like Fig.14 As shown in (c), the electronic device receives the user's operation on the floating window control Z; wherein, since the full-screen control X is selected, the floating window control Z is highlighted, and the split-screen control Y is no longer highlighted.

[0253] like Fig.14 As shown in (d), in response to the user's operation on the floating window control Z, the electronic device shrinks the split screen window to a floating window. At this time, another split screen window is enlarged to a full screen window, and the original floating window remains displayed.

[0254] Through the above solution, in the scenario of split-screen window + floating window, the user clicks the floating window control in a split-screen window to trigger the split-screen window to quickly switch to a floating window, and the original floating window remains displayed.

[0255] Third embodiment

[0256] The display screen window switching method provided in the third embodiment is applied to the scenario of switching from the floating window display mode to the full screen display mode or the split screen display mode. The following will combine multiple exemplary scenarios to exemplarily illustrate the solution provided in the third embodiment of the present application.

[0257] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, one or more floating windows may exist simultaneously on a full-screen window or a split-screen window.

[0258] Optionally, the floating window can move on the full-screen window or between two split-screen windows according to the user's drag operation.

[0259] Scenario 1: Full screen window + floating window → split screen display.

[0260] Trigger action: The user selects the split-screen control in the floating window.

[0261] Optionally, when a floating window is displayed in a full-screen window, it can be switched to a split-screen display in response to a user operation. Fig.15 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of another display screen window switching method provided in the third embodiment of the present application. Figure 8 ,like Fig.15 As shown, after the above step 109, the method may further include the following steps S110 and S111.

[0262] S110, in response to a ninth operation performed by the user on the floating window, the electronic device displays a full-screen control, a split-screen control, and a floating window control on the floating window.

[0263] S111, in response to the user's tenth operation on the split-screen control, the electronic device shrinks the full-screen window and displays it as a first split-screen window, and enlarges the floating window and displays it as a second split-screen window.

[0264] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the display position of the second split-screen window can be determined according to the display position of the floating window.

[0265] For example, when the floating window is located in the left area of ​​the display screen, if the user calls out multiple controls on the floating window and selects the split-screen control, the floating window is updated and displayed as a split-screen window and is displayed in the left area of ​​the display screen. Alternatively, when the floating window is located in the right area of ​​the display screen, if the user calls out multiple controls on the floating window and selects the split-screen control, the floating window is updated and displayed as a split-screen window and is displayed in the right area of ​​the display screen.

[0266] Combine the following Fig.16 The interface interaction process of scenario 1 in the third embodiment is exemplarily described.

[0267] like Fig.16 As shown in (a), a floating window 28 is displayed on the full screen window 27, the interface of the note application is displayed in the full screen window 27, and the interface of the album application is displayed in the floating window 28. A bar icon 29 is displayed in the floating window 28.

[0268] When the electronic device receives a dragging operation from the user on the floating window 28 (for example, dragging the floating window 28 in the direction indicated by the arrow in the figure), the electronic device updates the display position of the floating window 28, for example, the floating window 28 is moved to the right area of ​​the display screen.

[0269] like Fig.16 As shown in (b) and (c), when the electronic device receives an operation of the user on the bar icon 29 in the floating window 28, the electronic device calls out controls for switching display modes in the floating window 28, such as the full-screen control X, the split-screen control Y, and the floating window control Z. Among them, since the current display mode is the floating window display mode, the floating window control Z is highlighted, for example, compared with the background colors of the full-screen control X and the split-screen control Y, the background color of the floating window control Z is darker.

[0270] Then, if Fig.16 As shown in (c), the electronic device receives the user's operation on the split-screen control Y. At this time, since the split-screen control Y is selected, the background color of the split-screen control Y becomes darker, and the background color of the floating window control Z becomes lighter.

[0271] Then, if Fig.16 As shown in (d), in response to the user's operation on the split-screen control Y, the electronic device updates the full-screen window 27 to display as the first split-screen window 30, and updates the floating window 28 to display as the second split-screen window 31. The first split-screen window 30 displays the main interface of the note application, and the second split-screen window 31 displays the interface of the album application.

[0272] Through the above solution, in the floating window display scenario, the user clicks the split-screen control in the floating window to trigger the floating window to quickly switch to the split-screen window.

[0273] Scenario 2: Desktop + 1 floating window → full screen display.

At this time, the operated floating window can be changed into a split-screen window and displayed side by side with the split-screen recommendation interface. At this time, the desktop interface is covered, and the floating window that is not operated becomes a floating ball. Exemplarily, the floating ball is displayed next to the edge.

[0301] When the electronic device receives a user operation on an application in the split-screen recommendation interface (for example, clicking on the calculator application icon), Fig. 20 As shown in (d), the electronic device displays two split-screen windows, one split-screen window displays the interface of the note application, and the other split-screen window displays the interface of the calculator application.

[0302] Through the above solution, in the scenario of desktop + 2 floating windows, when the user clicks the split-screen control in a floating window, the electronic device can confirm that the user has a split-screen requirement, and then recommend applications that support split-screen for the user to choose; once the user selects an application, it can trigger the display screen to switch from the floating window display mode to the split-screen display mode.

[0303] Scenario 6: Full screen window + 1 floating window → split screen display.

[0304] Trigger action: The user selects the split-screen control in the floating window.

[0305] Combine the following Fig.21 The interface interaction process of scenario 6 in the third embodiment in actual application is exemplarily described.
