Description

Technical Field

[0001] The embodiments of the present application relate to the field of terminal application technology, and in particular, to an object processing method, an electronic device, and a storage medium. Background Art

[0002] As electronic devices provide more and more functions, people increasingly rely on electronic devices for work, life, etc. For example, people can perform related processing on objects (e.g., documents, videos, audios, pictures, texts, links, etc.) stored in electronic devices.

[0003] Currently, when users process objects in electronic devices, they need to go through multiple operations. For example, the user finds a picture in the gallery of the electronic device; clicks the share button on the interface showing the picture, triggering the electronic device to display the icon of the application that can share the picture, such as the Bluetooth icon, the instant messaging application icon, etc.; the user clicks an instant messaging application icon, triggering the electronic device to display the friend list in the instant messaging application, and the user clicks on one of the friends to send the picture to the selected friend. It can be understood that this object processing method is cumbersome, inefficient, and has a poor user experience. Summary of the invention

[0004] The embodiments of the present application provide an object processing method, an electronic device, and a storage medium, which provide a simple and efficient way to implement operation processing on an object.

[0005] In order to achieve the above objectives, this application adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides an object processing method, including:

[0007] The electronic device receives a first operation when displaying the first interface;

[0008] In response to the first operation, the electronic device displays a second interface, the second interface including a first object, an icon of the first application, and an icon of the second application, the first object corresponding to the content of the first application;

[0009] The electronic device receives a second operation of dragging the first object to the area where the icon of the second application is located and releasing the first object;

[0010] In response to the second operation, the electronic device displays a third interface of the second application, and the third interface displays content associated with the first object.

[0011] In the present application, a first operation can be used to trigger an electronic device to display a second interface including an icon of a first application, an icon of a second application, and a first object. A user can drag the first object in the second interface to the icon of the second application, thereby triggering the electronic device to display content of the second application associated with the first object. This processing method can quickly find the first object through the first operation, and quickly process the object through the second operation. Therefore, this method of processing the first object through the second application through the second operation is simple to operate, highly efficient, and provides a good user experience.

[0012] As an implementation of the first aspect, the second operation includes a third operation and a fourth operation;

[0013] The electronic device receives a second operation of dragging the first object to the area where the icon of the second application is located and releasing the first object, including:

[0014] The electronic device receives a third operation of selecting the first object;

[0015] In response to the third operation, the electronic device displays the first control on the second interface, and the first control displays the content of the first object;

[0016] The electronic device receives a fourth operation of dragging the first control into the area where the icon of the second application is located and releasing it, where the fourth operation is a dynamic gesture operation continuous with the third operation;

[0017] Correspondingly, in response to the second operation, the electronic device displays a third interface of the second application, including:

[0018] In response to the fourth operation, the electronic device displays a third interface of the second application.

[0019] In the present application, the second operation may include a third operation of selecting the first object and a fourth operation of dragging the first object to the second application icon. Since the second operation does not delete the first object from the second interface, in actual applications, the process of moving the first object can be a process of moving the first control that displays the first object, which instructs the second application to which it is moved to process the first object corresponding to the first control.

[0020] As another implementation of the first aspect, the electronic device includes a display screen, the first object in the second interface is displayed in a first area of ​​the display screen, and the icon of the first application in the second interface and the icon of the second application are displayed in a second area of ​​the display screen;

[0021] When the first operation is an operation of sliding from the right edge of the display screen to the left, the first area is located to the left of the second area;

[0022] When the first operation is an operation of sliding from the left edge of the display screen to the right, the first area is located to the right of the second area.

[0023] In the present application, various methods are provided for a first operation to trigger an electronic device to display a second interface. Similarly, the content displayed on the second interface may also be related to the first operation.

[0025] The electronic device receives a fifth operation of dragging the first object into the area where the first image is located and releasing the dragged object;

[0026] In response to the fifth operation, the electronic device displays a fourth interface of the third application, and the fourth interface displays content associated with the first object.

[0027] In the present application, part of the content of the first interface before the second interface can also be displayed in the second interface in the form of an image. The user can trigger the electronic device to display the fourth interface of the third application to which the first interface belongs by dragging the first object into the area of ​​the image; the user can implement the third application's processing of the first object through the fifth operation.

[0028] As another implementation of the first aspect, the electronic device includes a display screen, the first image in the second interface is displayed in a third area of ​​the display screen, and the first object in the second interface is displayed in the first area of ​​the display screen;

[0029] When the first operation is an operation of sliding from the right edge of the display screen to the left, the third area is located to the left of the first area;

[0030] When the first operation is an operation of sliding from the left edge of the display screen to the right, the third area is located to the right of the first area.

[0031] In this application, various first operations are provided to trigger the electronic device to display the second interface. Similarly, the content displayed on the second interface can also be related to the first operation. For example, when sliding to the left, the originally displayed first interface is displayed on the left, and when sliding to the right, the originally displayed first interface is displayed on the right, which improves the user's visual experience.

[0032] As another implementation of the first aspect, the electronic device includes a display screen, and before the electronic device displays the first interface, the method further includes:

[0033] When the electronic device displays the fifth interface, a sixth operation of dragging the second object in the fifth interface to the fourth area of ​​the display screen is received;

[0034] In response to the sixth operation, the electronic device displays a sixth interface, which includes the icon of the first application; the electronic device receives a seventh operation of dragging the second object in the fourth area to the area where the icon of the first application is located and releasing it;

[0035] In response to the seventh operation, the electronic device displays the fifth interface or the seventh interface, the fifth interface displays the information of the first duration for indicating successful storage, and the seventh interface displays the content of the first application, which includes the first object.

[0036] In the present application, not only can the electronic device display the icons of objects and applications be triggered by the first operation, but also an object in an interface can be dragged to the fourth area of ​​the display screen to trigger the electronic device to display the icon of the application, so that the object can be dragged to the displayed application icon, thereby realizing the processing of the object, for example, storage, thereby realizing the rapid storage of the object.

[0040] The electronic device receives a ninth operation of dragging the second control into the fourth area;

[0041] Correspondingly, in response to the sixth operation, the electronic device displays a sixth interface, including:

[0042] In response to the ninth operation, the electronic device displays a sixth interface including the second control.

[0043] In the present application, during the process of dragging an object, the object on the original interface is not deleted. Therefore, it can be set that the object to be dragged is the control of the object. When the control of the object is dragged to the application icon, it means that the object is stored in the application represented by the application icon.

[0044] As another implementation of the first aspect, the icon of the first application in the sixth interface is displayed in the second area of ​​the display screen; the first object in the seventh interface is displayed in the first area of ​​the display screen;

[0045] When the first operation is an operation of sliding from the right edge of the screen to the left, the fourth area is located on the right side of the display screen;

[0046] When the first operation is an operation of sliding from the left edge of the display screen to the right, the fourth area is located on the left side of the display screen.

[0047] As another implementation of the first aspect, the seventh operation is a dynamic gesture operation continuous with the sixth operation; the ninth operation is a dynamic gesture operation continuous with the eighth operation;

[0048] The ninth operation is to drag the second control into the fourth area and display the second duration in the fourth area.

[0049] In the present application, in order to avoid misoperation, it can be set that the second control is dragged into the fourth area and displayed in the fourth area for a sufficient period of time, and then the electronic device is triggered to display the application icon.

[0050] As another implementation of the first aspect, the sixth interface also includes an icon of the second application; when the electronic device displays the sixth interface including the second control, the method further includes:

[0051] The electronic device receives a tenth operation of dragging the second control to the area where the icon of the second application is located and releasing it. In response to the tenth operation, the electronic device displays an eighth interface of the second application, and the eighth interface displays content associated with the second object.

[0052] In the present application, the user can not only drag the object to the icon of the application related to the object on the second interface that simultaneously displays the object and the application icon to trigger the electronic device to display the interface associated with the object in the application, but can also trigger the electronic device to display the application icon by operating on the interface where the object is displayed without displaying the application icon, thereby triggering the electronic device to display the interface associated with the object in the application by continuing to drag the object to the displayed application icon.

[0053] As another implementation manner of the first aspect, the second object and the first object are the same object located in different interfaces, the eighth interface and the third interface display the same content, and the tenth operation is a dynamic gesture operation continuous with the sixth operation.

[0054] As another implementation of the first aspect, before the electronic device receives a second operation of dragging the first object to an area where an icon of the second application is located and releasing the first object, the second interface displayed by the electronic device also includes a third object; when the electronic device displays the second interface including the third object, the method further includes:

[0055] The electronic device receives an eleventh operation of selecting a third object;

[0056] In response to the eleventh operation, the electronic device displays the third control and the icon of the fourth application on the second interface, and displays the content of the third object on the third control;

[0057] The electronic device receives a twelfth operation of dragging the third control into the area where the icon of the fourth application is located and releasing it, where the twelfth operation is a dynamic gesture operation continuous with the eleventh operation;

[0058] In response to the twelfth operation, the electronic device displays a ninth interface of the fourth application, and the ninth interface displays content associated with the third object.

[0059] In the present application, it can also be set that when a third object is selected, the icon of the fourth application corresponding to the third object is displayed on the second interface, and then the third object is dragged to the icon of the fourth application to trigger the fourth application to process the third object. This method is also relatively simple and quick.

[0060] As another implementation of the first aspect, the electronic device includes a display screen, an icon of the fourth application is displayed in a second area of ​​the display screen, and a third object in the second interface is displayed in a first area of ​​the display screen.

[0061] As another implementation of the first aspect, the electronic device includes a display screen, the first operation includes a thirteenth operation and a fourteenth operation, and the electronic device receiving the first operation includes:

[0062] The electronic device receives a thirteenth operation of sliding from the right edge of the display screen to the left;

[0063] In response to the thirteenth operation, the electronic device displays a tenth interface, on which the third image and the icon of the first application are displayed, and the third image is the content of the first interface;

[0064] The electronic device receives a fourteenth operation of sliding left and releasing continuously with the thirteenth operation;

[0065] Correspondingly, in response to the first operation, the electronic device displays a second interface, including:

[0066] In response to the fourteenth operation, the electronic device displays the second interface.

[0067] As another implementation of the first aspect, when the electronic device displays the tenth interface, the method further includes:

[0068] The electronic device detects a release operation corresponding to the thirteenth operation;

[0069] In response to a release operation continuous with the thirteenth operation, the electronic device keeps displaying the tenth interface.

[0070] In the present application, the first operation can be a continuous dynamic gesture operation, the tenth interface is displayed after the thirteenth operation, and the second interface is displayed after the fourteenth operation. When the tenth interface is displayed in the thirteenth operation, if the user releases the finger, the electronic device can be triggered to maintain the display of the tenth interface, and the user can perform some operations on the tenth interface, providing a variety of object processing methods.

[0101] In the following description, specific details such as specific system structures and technologies are provided for illustration rather than limitation, so as to provide a thorough understanding of the embodiments of the present application. However, it should be clear to those skilled in the art that the present application can also be implemented in other embodiments without these specific details.

[0102] It should be understood that when used in the present specification and the appended claims, the term "comprising" indicates the presence of described features, wholes, steps, operations, elements and / or components, but does not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, wholes, steps, operations, elements, components and / or combinations thereof.

[0103] It should also be understood that in the embodiments of the present application, "one or more" refers to one, two or more than two; "and / or" describes the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that three relationships may exist; for example, A and / or B may represent: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone, where A and B may be singular or plural. The character " / " generally indicates that the associated objects before and after are in an "or" relationship.

[0104] In addition, in the description of the present application specification and the appended claims, the terms "first", "second", "third", "fourth", etc. are only used to distinguish the descriptions and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0105] References to "one embodiment" or "some embodiments" etc. described in the specification of this application mean that one or more embodiments of the present application include specific features, structures or characteristics described in conjunction with the embodiment. Therefore, the statements "in one embodiment", "in some embodiments", "in some other embodiments", "in some other embodiments", etc. that appear in different places in this specification do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, but mean "one or more but not all embodiments", unless otherwise specifically emphasized in other ways. The terms "including", "comprising", "having" and their variations all mean "including but not limited to", unless otherwise specifically emphasized in other ways.

[0106] The object processing method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied to an electronic device. The electronic device can be a tablet computer, a mobile phone, a wearable device, a laptop computer, an ultra-mobile personal computer (UMPC), a netbook, a personal digital assistant (PDA), and other electronic devices. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the specific type of the electronic device.

[0107] Figure 1 The electronic device 100 may include a processor 110, an internal memory 121, a charging management module 140, a power management module 141, a battery 142, a sensor module 180, a camera 193, a display screen 194, etc. The sensor module 180 may include a pressure sensor 180A, a touch sensor 180K, etc.

[0108] It is to be understood that the structure illustrated in the embodiment of the present application does not constitute a specific limitation on the electronic device 100. In other embodiments of the present application, the electronic device 100 may include more or fewer components than shown in the figure, or combine some components, or split some components, or arrange the components differently. The components shown in the figure may be implemented in hardware, software, or a combination of software and hardware.

[0109] The processor 110 may include one or more processing units, for example: the processor 110 may include an application processor (application processor, AP), a modem processor, a graphics processor (graphics processing unit, GPU), an image signal processor (image signal processor, ISP), a controller, a memory, a video codec, a digital signal processor (digital signal processor, DSP), a coprocessor (sensor coprocessor, SCP), a baseband processor, and / or a neural network processor (neural-network processing unit, NPU), etc. Among them, different processing units can be independent devices or integrated in one or more processors. A memory can also be set in the processor 110 for storing instructions and data. The internal memory 121 can be used to store computer executable program code, and the executable program code includes instructions. The processor 110 executes various functional applications and data processing of the electronic device 100 by running the instructions stored in the internal memory 121.

[0110] The charging management module 140 is used to receive charging input from a charger, where the charger can be a wireless charger or a wired charger.

[0111] The power management module 141 is used to connect the battery 142, the charging management module 140 and the processor 110. The power management module 141 receives input from the battery 142 and / or the charging management module 140 to provide power to the processor 110, the internal memory 121, the display screen 194, the camera 193 and the like.

[0112] The pressure sensor 180A is used to sense pressure signals and convert pressure signals into electrical signals. In some embodiments, the pressure sensor 180A may be disposed on the display screen 194. When a touch operation is applied to the display screen 194, the electronic device 100 detects the intensity of the touch operation based on the pressure sensor 180A.

[0113] The touch sensor 180K is also called a "touch panel". The touch sensor 180K can be set on the display screen 194. The touch sensor 180K and the display screen 194 form a touch screen, also called a "touch screen". The touch sensor 180K is used to detect touch operations acting on or near it.

[0114] The electronic device 100 implements the display function through a GPU, a display screen 194, and an application processor. The GPU is a microprocessor for image processing, which connects the display screen 194 and the application processor. The GPU is used to perform mathematical and geometric calculations for graphics rendering. The processor 110 may include one or more GPUs that execute program instructions to generate or change display information.

[0115] The display screen 194 is used to display images, videos, etc. The display screen 194 includes a display panel. The display panel can be a liquid crystal display (LCD), an organic light-emitting diode (OLED), an active-matrix organic light-emitting diode or an active-matrix organic light-emitting diode (AMOLED), a flexible light-emitting diode (FLED), Miniled, MicroLed, Micro OLED, a quantum dot light-emitting diode (QLED), etc. In some embodiments, the electronic device 100 may include 1 or N display screens 194, where N is a positive integer greater than 1.

[0116] The camera 193 is used to capture still images or videos. The object generates an optical image through the lens and projects it onto the photosensitive element. The photosensitive element can be a charge coupled device (CCD) or a complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) phototransistor. In some embodiments, the electronic device 100 may include 1 or N cameras 193, where N is a positive integer greater than 1.

[0117] The embodiments of the present application do not particularly limit the specific structure of the execution subject of an object processing method, as long as the code of an object processing method of the embodiments of the present application can be run to communicate according to an object processing method provided by the embodiments of the present application. For example, the execution subject of an object processing method provided by the embodiments of the present application can be a functional module in an electronic device that can call and execute a program, or a communication device applied to an electronic device, such as a chip.

[0118] Electronic devices provide more and more functions, and people are increasingly dependent on electronic devices. Users can use electronic devices for work, life, and other related activities. As an example, users can perform related operations (e.g., printing documents, forwarding pictures, etc.) on files (e.g., documents, videos, audios, pictures, etc.) stored in electronic devices or information (e.g., text, links, images, etc.) displayed on them.

[0119] As an example of a document printing operation, when a user wants to print a document sent by a friend a few days ago, the user first finds the instant messaging application on the system desktop of the electronic device, clicks the icon of the instant messaging application to open the instant messaging application, finds the chat item of the friend from the chat items displayed on the interface of the instant messaging application, clicks the chat item of the friend to open the chat interface with the friend, and then finds the target document from the chat interface; then, clicks the target document to open the target document through the document editing software, finds the print button in the interface of the target document displayed by the document editing software to start the printing application, and thus prints the target document through the printing application. It can be understood that this process requires multiple steps of operation by the user to be implemented.

[0120] Even if the user has saved the target document in the electronic device when receiving it, when the user needs to print the target document after a period of time, the user needs to find the file management application on the system desktop of the electronic device, click the icon of the file management application to open the file management application, and find the target document from the file items displayed on the interface of the file management application; then, click the target document to open the target document through the document editing software, find the print button in the interface of the target document displayed by the document editing software to start the printing application, and thus print the target document through the printing application. It can be understood that this process also requires multiple steps of operation by the user to be realized.

[0121] Of course, the above example only takes the printing operation of a document as an example. In actual applications, various operations on files and information require users to perform relatively cumbersome operations to achieve them. Therefore, the convenience of various functions provided by electronic devices becomes particularly important.

[0122] The embodiment of the present application provides an object processing method, which can provide a simple and quick way to help users find a target object (the target object includes files and information in the above example) in an electronic device, and after finding the target object, provide a simple and quick way to help users perform related operations on the target object through the electronic device. In addition, a simpler and quicker way is also provided to help users perform related operations on the target object through the electronic device on an interface including the target object.

[0123] The following describes a specific implementation scheme of the object processing method provided in the embodiment of the present application.

[0124] The embodiment of the present application provides a virtual space in an electronic device, which can be recorded as a smart space or a magic space. Applications such as global collections and personal folders can be used in the smart space. The files and information in the above examples can be stored in the global collection and personal folders. Correspondingly, the smart space can also provide operation services corresponding to the files and information, such as printing, forwarding, and price comparison of the identified goods.

[0125] Among them, global collections and personal folders are only used as examples. In actual applications, applications used to store files and information in the smart space can be named with different names, for example, they can also be named as transfer stations, notes, etc. Personal folders can also be named with different names according to user settings. For example, the name of a personal folder can be modified to "folder", "important files", "private files", etc. Of course, there can be one or more applications for storing files and information in the smart space.

[0126] The embodiment of the present application takes the example that the smart space can provide global collections and personal folder applications, where files such as documents, videos, audios, pictures, etc. can be stored in personal folders; information such as text, links, image information, etc. can be stored in global collections; of course, in actual applications, files can also be stored in global collections. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the specific object types stored in the application used to store objects in the smart space.

[0127] The following first describes the interface concept diagram based on which the object processing method provided in the embodiment of the present application is implemented. Figure 2 , which is a conceptual diagram of an interface corresponding to a smart space provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0128] Reference Figure 2 As shown in (a) of FIG. 1 , the display screen of the electronic device displays any interface (which can be recorded as interface 1, and the interface can be a system desktop, an interface of an application, etc.). When the electronic device displays any interface, the user slides his finger from the rightmost side of the display screen of the electronic device to the left to open the smart space, wherein: Figure 2 (b) to Figure 2 (d) in the figure shows the process of opening the smart space. In practical applications, it is also possible to set which interfaces the electronic device displays when the smart space cannot be opened, or to set which interfaces the smart space can be opened only when the smart space is displayed.

[0129] The embodiment of the present application uses the operation of sliding from the far right of the display screen to the left as an example of the gesture operation of opening the smart space. In practical applications, other types of gesture operations can also be used as the gesture operation of opening the smart space. For example, the operation of sliding from the far left of the display screen to the right.

[0130] User's finger Figure 2 When sliding from the rightmost side of the display screen to the left side on the interface shown in (a) of FIG. 1 , the electronic device will be triggered to display Figure 2 The interface shown in (b).

[0131] Reference Figure 2 As shown in (b), as the user's finger slides to the left on the display screen, interface 1 displayed on the electronic device also begins to slide to the left; as interface 1 slides to the left, the smart space is gradually opened, and the sidebar in the smart space is displayed on the right side of the display screen.

[0132] Among them, interface 1 can be understood as the door of the smart space. As the door is opened, the applications for storing objects (e.g., global favorites) and some quick applications provided by the smart space will be displayed in the sidebar. After a part of interface 1 is pushed open, the electronic device displays the sidebar in the right area (e.g., area A in the figure) in the smart space. The sidebar may include one or more application icons, such as the global favorites icon in the above example, and may also display some quick application icons, such as email icons, music icons, file management icons, etc.

[0133] In order to improve the user experience, interface 1 can be regarded as a door in the real space. As the door is pushed open, from the user's perspective, the left side of interface 1 is displayed on the far left of the display screen. At the same time, interface 1 will produce visual deformation as a door. Therefore, as the user's finger slides to the left on the screen, interface 1 will deform, as if the door of the smart space is opened.

[0134] certainly, Figure 2 (b) may not display the interface 1 itself or the deformed interface 1 itself, but a screenshot of the interface 1 or a deformed image of the screenshot of the interface 1 (the image is recorded as the deformed image of the interface 1). There is no restriction on the form of the interface 1 displayed during the opening of the magic space.

[0135] User's finger Figure 2 If the interface shown in (b) is not lifted and continues to slide to the left, the electronic device will be triggered to display Figure 2 The interface shown in (c) in .

[0136] Reference Figure 2As shown in (c), as the user continues to slide to the left side of the display screen without lifting his finger, the deformed interface 1 (or the deformed image of interface 1) will continue to be pushed to the left. From a three-dimensional space perspective, the interface 1 (or the deformed image of interface 1) is pushed to the left space. Due to the limited display screen space, the content of a partial area of ​​the deformed interface 1 (or the deformed image of interface 1) will be displayed on the display screen. In this diagram, the interface 1 (or the deformed image of interface 1) on the left side of the display screen is a conceptual example, and does not mean that the user can definitely see the content outside the display screen.

[0137] User's finger Figure 2 If the interface shown in (c) is not lifted and continues to slide to the left, the electronic device will be triggered to display Figure 2 The interface shown in (d).

[0138] Reference Figure 2 As shown in (d) in the figure, when the user slides the finger on the display screen to the left area of ​​the display screen (specifically, it can be set to an area close to the leftmost side of the display screen, for example, area C), the deformed interface 1 (or the deformed image of interface 1) is pushed to a smaller area on the rightmost side of interface 1 on the display screen. At this time, the smart space is fully opened, and the central area of ​​the content currently displayed on the display screen (the area between area A and area C) displays the objects stored or collected in the smart space, for example, Figure 2 The content of the global collection in the dotted box shown in (d) in FIG. 1 shows two objects stored or collected in the global collection, respectively, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 Objects 1 and 2 shown in (d) in FIG. Objects stored or collected in the global collection can be displayed in the form of cards, or in the form of entries. The present application does not limit the display form of the content displayed in the central area of ​​the smart space.

[0139] pass Figure 2 (a) to Figure 2 It can be understood that in (d), the present embodiment of the application only needs one step to find the object stored in the global collection. There is no need to return to the system desktop to search through multiple steps in the instant messaging application, nor is there a need to return to the system desktop to search through multiple steps in the file management.

[0140] In the subsequent embodiments of the present application, during the process of opening the smart space and after opening the smart space, using interface 1 or the deformed interface 1 as an example of the content pushed to the left does not mean that the deformed image of interface 1 or the screenshot image of interface 1 cannot be used as the content pushed to the left for display.

[0141] In the above example, the process of opening the smart space is divided into multiple stages: Interface 1 is pushed open to produce deformation and display the sidebar, the deformed Interface 1 continues to be pushed open, and the deformed Interface 1 is pushed open to the far left and displays the global collection content. Therefore, the display screen can be partitioned to make Figure 2 The different stages of the continuous dynamic gesture in the corresponding stages of opening the smart space. For example, the display screen is divided into area A, area B, and area C from the far right, and the area between area A and area C is area B. When the electronic device detects that the user's finger slides from the far right through area A to area B, the interface displayed by the electronic device changes from Figure 2 (a) in becomes Figure 2 (b) in the figure; when the user's finger passes through area A and slides in area B, the interface displayed by the electronic device changes from Figure 2 (b) in the figure begins to change to Figure 2 (c) in the above requires explanation. Figure 2 (c) is just an example of the user's finger sliding in area B; when the user's finger slides through area A and area B to area C, the interface displayed by the electronic device changes to Figure 2 (d) in which area A and area C are Figure 2 (b) and Figure 2 As indicated in (c), the areas A, B, and C in the above example are only examples. In actual applications, they can be adjusted according to actual conditions. In addition, it can also be understood that area A displays the sidebar, area B displays the global favorite content, and area C displays part of the image of interface 1. Of course, in actual applications, the division of the three areas corresponding to the user's gesture operation and the division of the three areas for displaying content in the smart space can also be different.

[0142] As another embodiment of the present application, it is also possible to Figure 3 Open the smart space as shown.

[0143] Figure 3 (a) to Figure 3 (b) and Figure 2 (a) to Figure 2 The same as (b) in FIG. 1 and will not be repeated here.

[0144] Reference Figure 3As shown in (c), when the user's finger passes through area A and slides in area B, the deformed interface 1 starts to slide to the left as the user's finger slides. Since the interface 1 can be regarded as the door to the smart space, the global collection content displayed in the smart space can also be set to be displayed below the deformed interface 1. As the deformed interface 1 is slowly pushed to the left, the global collection content blocked by the deformed interface 1 is gradually displayed. When the deformed interface 1 is partially pushed open, the global collection content in the smart space displays the area not blocked by the interface 1.

[0145] Reference Figure 3 As shown in (d), as the user's finger slides on the display screen to area C, the deformed interface 1 only displays the rightmost area on the display screen, and the central area of ​​the content currently displayed on the display screen displays the global collection content in the smart space.

[0146] The embodiments of the present application are implemented in a specific manner. Figure 2 The interface change process shown is still Figure 3 The interface change process shown is not limited. Figure 2 The interface change process shown is taken as an example.

[0147] Below Figure 2 Take the example to introduce the interface in the smart space in detail.

[0148] Figure 2 Interface 1 in the figure is regarded as the door of the smart space, which is pushed to the left and only part of the area is displayed. Interface 1 can be any interface (it can be any interface except the negative one screen). When the electronic device displays any interface, the user can open the smart space by performing a gesture operation to open the smart space. Among them, the negative one screen is the leftmost screen in the system screen displayed by the electronic device. For example, when the electronic device displays the system home screen, the user triggers the leftmost screen displayed by the electronic device through a gesture operation of sliding to the right, which is the negative one screen. Usually, the negative one screen can provide shortcuts to some applications, notification messages, etc.

[0149] The central area of ​​the smart space ( Figure 2 The area between area A and area C in the smart space displays the content of the application for storing or collecting objects in the smart space, for example, Figure 2 The content of the global collection displayed in (d) may or may not have a boundary line. The content displayed in this area includes objects stored or collected in the global collection, for example, Figure 2In (d), the objects 1 and 2 are shown. In actual applications, the display form of the object can be set according to actual conditions. For example, the objects stored in the application in the smart space can be displayed in the form of cards, or in the form of items.

[0150] The right area of ​​the smart space (for example, Figure 2 The area A) shown in (b) in FIG. 1 shows a sidebar. The sidebar mainly displays icons of some applications (or services).

[0151] In the embodiments of the present application, the service is a function provided by an application, and the application is the carrier form of the service in an electronic device, so the subsequent embodiments of the present application are all described in terms of applications.

[0152] Reference Figure 4 , which is a sidebar display format provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0153] Reference Figure 4 As shown in (a) in FIG. 1 , it is a conceptual diagram of a sidebar when no object is selected. The sidebar can display icons of multiple categories of applications: icons of first category applications, icons of second category applications, an application settings button, and an exit button.

[0154] Reference Figure 4 (b) in the figure shows the conceptual diagram of the sidebar when an object is selected. Figure 4 Based on the sidebar shown in (a), the third category of application icons is added. The differences between different categories of applications can be seen in Table 1.

[0155] Table 1 The differences between the first, second, and third category applications shown in the sidebar

[0156]

[0157] The first category of applications is an application that can be displayed in the central area of ​​the smart space. When no object is selected, the first category of applications is displayed in the sidebar. When an object is selected, the first category of applications is also displayed in the sidebar. The first category of applications can store or collect objects. The first category of applications can include one or more applications, such as global collections, folders, transfer stations, etc. If no addition or deletion operation is performed on the first category of applications displayed in the sidebar, the first category of applications displayed when an object is selected is the same as when no object is selected.

[0158] The second category of applications is applications that users can add or delete by themselves. The second category of applications cannot be displayed in the central area of ​​the smart space. The second category of applications can include one or more applications, such as email, music, file management, etc. In actual applications, due to space limitations, some applications in the second category of applications are displayed in the sidebar or all applications are displayed in the sidebar. Some of the second category of applications that are not displayed can be displayed by sliding in the area corresponding to the second category of applications.

[0159] The third category of applications that appear when an object is selected and are related to the type of the selected object can be displayed in the central area of ​​the smart space. When the selected object is dragged to the area above the icon of the third category of applications and the hand is raised, the electronic device will be triggered to display the interface of the third category of applications related to the selected object. When the third category of applications displays the interface related to the selected object, it can be displayed in the central area of ​​the interface of the smart space.

[0160] The embodiment of the present application provides a correspondence between some different types of objects and the third type of applications displayed in the sidebar through Table 2.

[0161] Table 2 Correspondence between objects and the third category of applications

[0162]

[0163] In actual applications, a third category of applications different from those in Table 2 may be set for different types of objects, and this application will not give examples one by one.

[0164] Since the space of the sidebar is limited, when an object is selected, when the sidebar displays the third category of applications, some icons of the second category of applications can be hidden. Figure 4 The third category of applications shown in (a) includes: email, music and file management; after an object is selected, please refer to Figure 4 The third category of applications shown in (b) includes: email, in which the music and file management are hidden. Of course, the user can slide in the area where the icons of the third category of applications are located to display the hidden music or file management.

[0165] The sidebar can also display an application settings button as a setting entry for applications in the smart space. Through this setting entry, you can add or delete applications and quick applications in the smart space.

[0166] The exit button can be used to close the smart space. For example, when the user clicks the exit button, the electronic device will display the interface that was displayed before the smart space was opened. Of course, in the specific implementation, after opening the smart space, the smart space can also be closed by a right-swiping gesture or a left-swiping gesture.

[0167] Due to space limitations, the sidebar may only display some of the icons listed above. As an example, after the smart space is opened, the sidebar displays the first category application icons, the second category application icons, and the application settings button, and no longer displays the exit button;

[0168] In order to facilitate the distinction, a "horizontal line" symbol can be used to separate the first category application icons and the third category application icons; Figure 2 The "horizontal line" symbol is located between the global favorites and emails; similarly, the "horizontal line" symbol can also be used to separate the third category application icons and the second category application icons. For details, please refer to the display method in the corresponding interface of the subsequent embodiments. Of course, other forms of symbols can also be used to separate application icons of different categories.

[0169] Figure 4 (a) and Figure 4 (b) is used to distinguish different application categories and some icons. In actual applications, the specific display form of the sidebar when no object is selected and when an object is selected can be referred to in the following Figure 8 The sidebar shown in (b) and Figure 8 The sidebar shown in (c) in the figure.

[0170] As before, objects are stored or collected in the smart space. After opening the smart space, related operations can be performed on the objects stored or collected in the smart space. The following first describes how to store or collect objects in the smart space.

[0171] Reference Figure 5 , which is an example provided in an embodiment of the present application of adding files in the chat interface of an instant messaging application to a smart space for storage. This example takes folders and global collections as the first type of applications for storage or collection objects.

[0172] Reference Figure 5 As shown in (a) in the chat interface of the instant messaging application (this interface is denoted as interface 2), a friend "Zhang San" sends a file "While the car is driving...", and the user can select the file by long pressing the area where the file is displayed and drag the file to the right area.

[0173] After the file is selected by long pressing, the file switches to a suspended state. The suspended file is dragged to the right on the display screen as a floating control by the user's finger. When dragged to area A, the electronic device will display Figure 5 Of course, in actual applications, this area may also be different from area A.

[0174] Reference Figure 5As shown in (b), when the user drags the suspended file to the area A on the right, the smart space will be triggered to open. Interface 2 is regarded as the door of the smart space, partially opened, and visually deformed. Since interface 2 is partially opened, the area in the smart space that is not blocked by interface 2 displays a sidebar. At this time, the sidebar displays the first category of applications: folders and global collections; it also displays the third category of applications (at this time, an object is selected, so the sidebar displays the third category of applications corresponding to the selected object): notebook, printing, and cross-device; it also displays the second category of applications: email, as well as the settings button and the exit button. The user continues to drag the selected file to the folder in the sidebar to store the selected file in the folder in the smart space so that some related operations can be performed on the file later.

[0175] In the specific implementation, the gesture in this example is a continuous dynamic gesture, that is, the user presses the file on the interface 2 with a finger, and then drags the file to the right area A without raising the hand, and continues to drag the file to the folder in the sidebar without raising the hand. Of course, other gesture operations can also be set according to the situation to put the file into the smart space, and the embodiments of this application will not be given one by one.

[0176] Of course, in actual applications, it can be set that after the user selects any object through a long press gesture operation, the object switches to a suspended state and the door of the smart space can be opened at the same time.

[0177] It can also be set that after the user selects any object through a long press gesture operation, the object switches to a suspended state, and the door to the smart space is not opened temporarily. Instead, the door to the smart space is opened after the user starts to drag the suspended object.

[0178] Of course, the user can also be set to select any object through a long press gesture (the object switches to a suspended state) and drag the suspended object to the right area A and hold it for a certain period of time (for example, 600ms) before opening the door of the smart space.

[0179] By setting the dragging to area A and keeping it for a certain period of time, the following situation can be avoided: when the electronic device is set to perform other operations with the user's selection gesture or drag gesture of the object, the electronic device detects that the gesture has performed the operation of opening the smart space, but cannot perform other operations corresponding to the selection gesture or drag gesture, or performs other operations corresponding to the selection gesture or drag gesture, but cannot perform the opening of the smart space.

[0180] Reference Figure 5 In (c), after the user drags the file to the top of the folder icon in the sidebar, the folder icon performs an animation and changes into another icon. Figure 5The folder icon in (b) and Figure 5 The folder icon in (c) in the figure, of course, in actual application, after the user drags the file to the area corresponding to the folder icon in the sidebar, the folder icon may not perform animation and maintain the original icon state.

[0181] When the user drags a file to a folder, the icon of the file can be set to become smaller as the file moves to the right. This setting prevents the file icon from being too large and being located above two icons at the same time, causing the electronic device to be unable to determine which application the file is stored in.

[0182] After the user drags a file onto the sidebar folder icon with his finger, the user can lift his finger to trigger the electronic device to store or collect the file in the folder.

[0183] After the user lifts his finger from the display, the electronic device displays Figure 5 The interface shown in (d).

[0184] Reference Figure 5 In (d), the electronic device displays the interface 2 before opening the smart space, and displays a prompt for a period of time in any area on the interface to prompt the user that the selected file has been stored in the smart space. For example, a prompt message of "successfully stored" may be displayed for 2 seconds.

[0185] In actual application, after the user lifts his finger, the electronic device can also fully open the smart space. For example, the deformed interface 2 is pushed to the far left of the display screen, a partial area of ​​the interface 2 is displayed on the display screen, and the central area of ​​the display screen displays the folder interface. The folder interface can display icons of multiple files that have been stored or collected, and the right side of the display screen displays a sidebar when no object is selected.

[0186] The display mode after the user lifts his finger can refer to Figure 6 The embodiment shown.

[0187] Reference Figure 6 , which takes a picture as an example of an embodiment of the present application, is an example of the process of an electronic device fully opening a smart space in response to a user's operation.

[0188] Reference Figure 6 In (a), in any interface displaying a picture (this interface is denoted as interface 3), text and a picture are displayed, and the user can select the picture by long pressing the area displaying the picture.

[0189] After selecting the picture, the electronic device displays Figure 6The interface shown in (b) in the figure. The embodiment of the present application takes the example of selecting an object to trigger the half-open door of the smart space. Of course, the floating control of the picture can also be displayed above the interface, and the process of the user dragging the picture is the process of the user dragging the floating control.

[0190] Reference Figure 6 As shown in (b), after the user selects the picture, the electronic device is triggered to half-open the smart space. Interface 3 is regarded as the door of the smart space, partially opened, and visually deformed. Since the selected object has switched to a suspended state, it seems that the selected picture and interface 3 are separated; since interface 3 is partially opened, the area in the smart space that is not blocked by interface 3 displays a sidebar. At this time, the sidebar displays the first category of applications: folders and global collections; it also displays the third category of applications matching the selected picture: price comparison, printing, and cross-device; it also displays the second category of applications: email, as well as the settings button and the exit button. The user can drag the selected picture to the global collection to store or collect the selected picture in the global collection in the smart space, so that some related operations can be performed on the picture later.

[0191] In a specific implementation, the user presses and holds the image on the interface 3, and then drags the image to the global collection in the sidebar on the right without lifting the hand. Figure 6 In (c), after the user drags the image to the area corresponding to the global favorites icon in the sidebar, the global favorites icon does not perform animation and maintains the original icon state.

[0192] Of course, after the user drags the object to the area corresponding to the global favorites icon in the sidebar, the global favorites icon may or may not perform animation. The embodiment of the present application does not limit whether the icons in the sidebar perform animation. The image may also gradually become smaller during the dragging process to adapt to the size of the sidebar icon to avoid the image being too large and being located above two application icons at the same time.

[0193] After dragging the picture to the global collection, the user can lift his finger to trigger the electronic device to store or collect the picture in the global collection.

[0194] Reference Figure 6 In (d), after the user lifts his finger, and Figure 5 Different from (d) in the figure, the electronic device displays the interface after the smart space is fully opened. Since the image is added to the global collection, the central area of ​​the interface currently displayed in the smart space displays the global collection content. For details, please refer to Figure 6 The global collection content is enclosed by the dotted box in the interface shown in (d) in the figure. The global collection displays the collected objects in the form of cards, for example, through Figure 6The embodiment shown shows a favorite object 1 and an object 2 that has been previously favorited in the global favorites. The favorite objects can be displayed in the order of their favorite time, for example, the favorite time of the object displayed at the top is later than the favorite time of the object displayed at the bottom. The sidebar displays the applications when no object is selected: the first category application, the second category application, and the third category application corresponding to the selected image is not displayed.

[0195] Need to explain, Figure 5 and Figure 6 In this paper, we take the example of storing files and pictures in the smart space. In actual application, we can Figure 5 or Figure 6 The method in the above embodiment adds any selected object to the smart space. This application will not give examples one by one.

[0196] After adding an object to the smart space, you can also retrieve the object stored or collected in the smart space at any subsequent time for other processing operations.

[0197] Reference Figure 7 , which is a schematic diagram of a process of retrieving a historically stored file from a smart space and forwarding it to an instant messaging friend, provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0198] Reference Figure 7 As shown in (a) in the figure, the user opens the smart space through a preset gesture operation for opening the smart space in the instant messaging chat interface with a friend (the interface is denoted as interface 4). For example, the user slides the finger from the rightmost side of the display screen of the electronic device to the leftmost side and lifts the finger to open the smart space.

[0199] Reference Figure 7 As shown in (b) in the figure, the user Figure 2 or Figure 3 After opening the smart space in the manner shown, the electronic device displays the interface after opening the smart space, and the deformed interface 4 will be pushed further to the leftmost side of the display screen. Due to the limited space on the display screen, a partial area of ​​the deformed interface 4 will be displayed on the display screen (the bar area shown in the figure). The central area of ​​the smart space displays the content of a first-category application, for example, the content of a folder application: the icons and names of the files stored in the folder. The user selects a file "Conference Template" in the currently displayed interface through a long press gesture, and then drags the selected file to the left interface 4 without lifting his finger. Of course, what is actually dragged may be the floating control corresponding to the file.

[0200] Need to explain, Figure 7 The interface shown in (b) is the interface after the user selects a file, and the sidebar of the interface displays the third category application corresponding to the file.

[0201] Reference Figure 7 As shown in (c) in FIG. 1 , after the user drags the selected file to the left to the area corresponding to the interface 4 (for example, above the interface 4), the display screen of the electronic device displays the interface 4 before opening the smart space. The selected file will be displayed in a floating manner above the currently displayed interface 4.

[0202] After the user lifts his finger from the display, the electronic device displays Figure 7 The interface shown in (d).

[0203] Reference Figure 7 As shown in (d) in the figure, after the user lifts his finger, the selected file will be sent to the friends in the interface 4.

[0204] Through this example, it can be understood that the user only needs one continuous dynamic gesture operation to open the smart space, and only needs one continuous dynamic gesture operation to transfer the file in the smart space to the instant messaging friend side, and in response to the continuous dynamic gesture, the electronic device will directly display the interface after the instant messaging application processes the file: the interface after the file is sent, so the object processing method provided in the embodiment of the present application is simpler and faster.

[0205] Of course, the object processing method provided in the embodiment of the present application can not only take out files from the smart space and drag them to the left interface for processing, but also take out pictures or texts from the smart space and drag them to the left interface for processing. The embodiment of the present application takes taking out pictures and dragging them to the left interface for processing as an example.

[0206] Reference Figure 8 As shown in (a), the user opens the smart space in the instant messaging chat interface with friends (the interface is denoted as interface 5) through a preset gesture operation for opening the smart space. For example, the user slides the finger from the rightmost side of the display screen of the electronic device to the leftmost side and lifts the finger to open the smart space.

[0207] Reference Figure 8 As shown in (b) in the figure, the user Figure 2 or Figure 3 After the smart space is opened in the manner shown, the electronic device displays the interface after the smart space is opened, and the deformed interface 5 will be pushed further to the leftmost side of the display screen. Due to the limited display screen space, part of the content of the deformed interface 5 will be displayed on the display screen. The central area of ​​the smart space displays the content of a first category application, for example, the content of a folder application.

[0208] Since the object to be sent by the user is a picture, which is stored in the global collection, but the application content displayed in the central area by default after opening the smart space is the folder content, the user needs to click the global collection icon in the sidebar on the right to display the global collection content in the central area of ​​the smart space.

[0209] When the user clicks the global favorites icon in the sidebar, it will be displayed Figure 8 The interface shown in (c) in .

[0210] Reference Figure 8 As shown in (c) in the figure, after the user clicks the global collection icon, the global collection content is displayed in the central area of ​​the smart space.

[0211] The user selects an object in the global collection, for example, a picture, by a long press gesture in the current interface, and then drags the selected picture to the left interface 5 without lifting the finger. During the dragging process, the dragged object is a suspended control, and the picture content is displayed on the control.

[0212] Reference Figure 8 As shown in (d) in the figure, after the user drags the selected picture to the left to the area corresponding to the interface 5 (for example, above the interface 4), the display screen of the electronic device displays the interface 5 before opening the smart space. The selected picture will be displayed floating above the currently displayed interface 5.

[0213] After the user raises his finger, the electronic device displays Figure 8 The interface shown in (e) in .

[0214] Reference Figure 8 As shown in (e) in FIG. 5 , after the user lifts his finger, the selected picture will be sent to the instant messaging friend side in interface 5 .

[0215] In this way, pictures stored in the smart space can be retrieved and sent to instant messaging friends. Of course, other objects stored in the smart space can also be retrieved and sent to friends in this way.

[0216] Figure 7 and Figure 8 In the examples shown, after the selected object is dragged to the upper area of ​​the interface displayed on the left side of the display screen, the electronic device displays the left interface in full screen.

[0217] In actual applications, an area may also be specified, and after the selected object is dragged to the preset area on the left side of the display screen (or dragged to the preset area on the left side of the display screen and stays there for a certain period of time), the electronic device displays the left interface in full screen. The left side of the display screen may be used as the left side of the preset area, and the length of the preset area (horizontal direction of the display screen) may be set to determine the preset area.

[0218] As shown in the interface above, when there are at least two first-category applications in the smart space, after the smart space is opened, the central area of ​​the smart space displays the content of one first-category application. For example, the content of the first-category application at the top of the sidebar is usually displayed by default. When a folder is located at the top of the first-category application displayed in the sidebar, the central area of ​​the smart space displays the folder content; when a global collection is located at the top of the first-category application displayed in the sidebar, the central area of ​​the smart space displays the global collection content.

[0219] The embodiment of the present application also provides an adjustment function, whereby users can adjust the display order of the first category of applications in the sidebar according to their respective usage habits.

[0220] Reference Fig. 9 As shown in (a), when the smart space is opened, when the folder is located in the first position of the first category of applications in the sidebar, the central area of ​​the smart space displays the folder content by default. The first category of applications in the sidebar displays folder icons and global favorites icons in order from top to bottom. The user can display the global favorites content in the central area of ​​the smart space by clicking the global favorites icon, but this method can only determine that the global favorites content is currently displayed in the central area of ​​the smart space, and cannot ensure that the global favorites content is displayed by default in the central area of ​​the smart space after the smart space is opened subsequently. Therefore, the user can long press the global favorites icon to select the global favorites icon, and then drag the global favorites icon to the position of the folder icon without lifting the finger.

[0221] After the user lifts his finger, the electronic device will display Fig. 9 The interface shown in (b).

[0222] Reference Fig. 9 As shown in (b), after the global favorites icon is dragged to the first position of the first category of applications in the sidebar, the folder icon will move down one position, so the global favorites icon is located at the top of the sidebar and the folder is located at the second position of the sidebar. In this example, after the order of the icons of the first category of applications in the sidebar is changed, the application interface displayed in the central area of ​​the smart space does not change this time; when the smart space is opened next time, the central area of ​​the smart space displays the first icon of the first category of applications in the sidebar.

[0223] exist Fig. 9 In the interface shown in (b) of FIG. 1 , the user can also click the global favorites icon to trigger the central area of ​​the currently displayed interface to display the objects stored or collected in the global favorites, that is, by clicking the global favorites icon, the electronic device is triggered to display Fig. 9 The interface shown in (c) in .

[0224] As another example, with Fig. 9 When the gesture operation shown in (a) is completed, the application interface displayed in the central area of ​​the smart space can also change with the change of the order of the application icons in the sidebar. For example, the electronic device can directly display Fig. 9 The interface shown in (c) in .

[0225] Reference Fig. 9 As shown in (c), after the global favorites icon is dragged to the first position of the first category of applications in the sidebar, the folder icon will move down one position, so the global favorites icon is located at the top of the sidebar and the folder is located at the second position of the sidebar. In this example, after the icons of the first category of applications in the sidebar change order, the content displayed in the central area of ​​the smart space changes accordingly, that is, it is updated to the objects stored or collected in the global favorites.

[0226] The embodiments of the present application specifically adopt Fig. 9 The solution shown in (b) is Fig. 9 The scheme shown in (c) is not limited.

[0227] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown in the figure, objects are taken out from the smart space and sent to instant messaging friends. In actual application, objects in the smart space can also be taken out and dragged to the left interface to implement other operations.

[0228] Reference Fig.10 , which is a process provided by an embodiment of the present application for taking out text from a smart space and putting it into the document editing interface on the left for editing.

[0229] Reference Fig.10 In (a), the electronic device displays a document editing interface (this interface is recorded as interface 6), which can be an editing interface for presentations (PowerPoint, PPT). When a user wants to add text or pictures stored in the smart space in the editing interface of the ppt, the user can use a preset gesture to open the smart space to open the smart space. Of course, files stored in the smart space can also be inserted into the editing interface of the ppt, and this application will not cite examples one by one.

[0230] Reference Fig.10 As shown in (b), after the smart space is opened, the central area of ​​the smart space displays the global collection content, which contains pictures and text content. When the user needs to add text content to the ppt document, he can long press the card area corresponding to the text content, select the text content, and drag it to the left without lifting the finger to drag it to interface 6. After the text object is selected, the text card becomes a floating control, and the text content is displayed on the floating platform control. When dragging text, the floating control is dragged.

[0231] When the user drags the text content to the top of the corresponding area of ​​the left interface 6, the electronic device displays Fig.10 The interface shown in (c) in .

Without lifting the finger, the user can drag the text content to the area where text content can be added, and then lift the finger. The electronic device will display Fig.10 The interface shown in (d).

[0233] Reference Fig.10 As shown in (d) in the figure, when the user raises his hand, the selected text content will be added to the corresponding area in the ppt editing interface. This interface is the interface after the text is processed.

[0234] The user can continue to add the pictures in the global collection to the ppt document in the above way. In this way, you can collect materials on the Internet in advance and store the collected materials in the smart space. When you need to make a ppt, you can take out the collected materials from the smart space and add them to the ppt. Through this process, you can also understand that this method requires a continuous dynamic gesture to open the smart space, and a continuous dynamic gesture to move the objects in the smart space to the left interface for processing, which is simpler and faster.

[0235] In a specific implementation, objects stored or collected in the smart space can be dragged to the left interface for corresponding operations, and of course, they can also be dragged to the application corresponding to the icon displayed in the right sidebar for corresponding operations.

[0236] Reference Fig.11 , which is an example provided in an embodiment of the present application of selecting an object from the smart space and dragging it to the application icon in the right sidebar to perform corresponding operations.

The user long presses one of the documents, and the document will be selected; after any document is selected, the right sidebar will add the third category application icons corresponding to the document: notebook icon, print icon and cross-device icon, etc. The user can drag the document to any of the third category application icons without raising his hand. In the embodiment of the present application, taking printing the document as an example, the document can be dragged to the print icon.

[0239] Reference Fig.11 As shown in (c) in the figure, after dragging the document to the top of the print icon, the user lifts his finger, and the electronic device displays the print interface in full screen, showing the document content. The user can set the print parameters in the print interface and print the document. The print interface is the interface before the document is processed.

[0240] In this way, you can print documents in the smart space through two-step dynamic gesture operations: first open the smart space through continuous dynamic gestures, and then drag the document in the smart space to the print icon through continuous dynamic gestures to enter the printing interface of the document, which is convenient and quick.

[0241] The embodiment of the present application can also drag the picture or text in the smart space to the icon displayed in the sidebar on the right, so as to perform related operations on the picture or text through the application corresponding to the icon. The picture is used as an example below.

[0242] Reference Fig.12 As shown in (a), the display screen of the electronic device displays any interface. When the electronic device displays any interface, the user slides the finger from the rightmost side of the display screen of the electronic device to the left side of the display screen to open the smart space.

[0243] Reference Fig.12 As shown in (b), after the smart space is opened, the central area of ​​the smart space displays the global collection content, which contains pictures and links. The user long presses the card corresponding to the picture to select the picture, and the picture is updated to a suspended state. The sidebar on the right displays the first category of applications, the second category of applications, and the third category of applications. Since the picture is identified as a product picture, the third category of application icons displayed in the smart recommendation application are application icons related to the product picture. The user drags the selected picture to the price comparison icon without lifting his finger. After dragging the selected product picture to the price comparison icon, the user lifts his finger, and the electronic device can display the product price comparison interface.

[0244] The embodiment of the present application provides three display modes of the interface when the third type of application in the right sidebar processes an object.

[0245] Reference Fig.12 As shown in (c), a display method of a price comparison interface provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown, wherein the price comparison interface is displayed in full screen on the display screen of the electronic device.

[0246] It should be noted that the underlying logic for displaying the price comparison interface in full screen on the display screen of the electronic device in the embodiment of the present application can be: closing the smart space and then starting the price comparison application to open the price comparison interface; it can also be the full-screen interface displayed after pushing away the interface displayed on the left side of the smart space and the sidebar on the right side of the smart space.

[0247] Reference Fig.12 As shown in (d), another display method of the price comparison interface provided in an embodiment of the present application is provided, wherein the price comparison interface is displayed in the central area of ​​the smart space, the left side of the smart space displays a partial area of ​​the interface before opening the smart space, and the right side displays a sidebar.
