[0022] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the technical solutions of the present application are further elaborated in detail below in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments. The described embodiments should not be regarded as limiting the present application. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in the field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0023] In the following description, the terms "first / second / third" involved are merely used to distinguish similar objects and do not represent a specific ordering of the objects.

[0024] In the related art, in current dual-screen computers, users usually turn off one screen or adjust the brightness of the lower screen to the lowest to save power. The problem that this solution needs to solve is that when the lower screen is turned off or the brightness is low, after turning off one screen, the user cannot move the window to the lower screen when using the dual-screen window moving function. The user needs to manually turn on the lower screen before the window can be laid out on the lower screen.

[0025] like Figure 1A As shown, the electronic device 100 includes a first body 110 and a second body 120 that are rotatably connected, the first body 110 is provided with a first display screen 111, and the second body 120 is provided with a second display screen 121, wherein the electronic device 100 also includes a control module arranged on the first body 110 or the second body 120.

[0026] In some embodiments, the connection relationship diagram of the electronic device 100 is as follows: Figure 1B As shown, the first body 110 is rotatably connected to the second body 120 .

[0027] On this basis, the embodiment of the present application provides a display control method, which is applied to the control module 130, such as Figure 2 As shown, the method includes the following steps S201 and S202:

[0028] Step S201: When the electronic device outputs content through the first display screen, in response to obtaining a target control instruction, controlling the second display screen of the electronic device to switch from the current first display parameter to the target display parameter;

[0029] In some embodiments, the first display screen may be the B-side screen or the C-side screen of a dual-screen notebook, or any one of the A-side screen, the B-side screen, or the C-side screen of a triple-screen notebook.

[0030] In some embodiments, the first display screen may also be a B-side screen or an extended screen of a single-screen notebook.

[0031] In some implementations, content output may be outputting display content or outputting audio content.

[0032] In some implementations, the displayed content may be a desktop application window, or at least one application window displayed on the desktop, or a file, such as a word document, a picture file, a video file, or a program file, and the like.

[0033] In some implementations, the target control instruction may be an instruction to move an application window or an instruction to create a new application window, or an instruction to adjust display parameters of the first display screen.

[0034] In some embodiments, the target control instruction may be at least one of a touch operation on the first display screen, a control gesture operation on the interactive sensing area of ​​the electronic device, or a voice control instruction.

[0035] In some embodiments, the second display screen can be another display screen of a dual-screen notebook or a triple-screen notebook that is different from the first display screen; it can also be an extended display screen of a single-screen device or a display screen installed on itself (when the first display screen is an extended screen).

[0036] In some embodiments, the first display parameter may include at least one of a black screen state (a low brightness state or a power-off screen state), a low refresh rate state, and the like.

[0037] In some implementations, the switching of the first display parameter to the target display parameter may also be switching from a partial display state to a full screen state, such as switching from a split screen display state to a full screen display state.

[0038] In some implementations, switching from the first display parameter to the target display parameter may be switching from a black screen state to a bright screen state.

[0039] In some embodiments, switching from the first display parameter to the target display parameter may be switching from low brightness to target brightness, and the target brightness may be the same brightness as the first display screen, or a brightness adapted to the environment or window attributes or user habits.

[0040] In some embodiments, switching from the first display parameter to the target display parameter may be switching from a low refresh rate to a high refresh rate, where the high refresh rate is the same refresh rate as the first display screen, or a refresh rate adapted to the window application or a refresh rate that the user is accustomed to.

[0041] In some embodiments, switching from the first display parameter to the target display parameter may be switching from half-screen display or window display to full-screen display or expanded window display.

[0042] Exemplarily, the first display screen outputs the content of the desktop application window, and the second display screen is in a black screen state to save power. When it is necessary to move the application window in the first display screen to the second display screen for content output, the second display screen is switched from the black screen state to the bright screen state, and the second display screen is automatically lit to display the application window.

[0043] Exemplarily, the first display screen outputs the content of the desktop application window, and the second display screen is in a low-brightness state. When it is necessary to move the application window in the first display screen to the second display screen for content output, the second display screen is switched from the low-brightness state to the bright screen state, that is, the second display screen is automatically lit to display the application window.

[0044] Step S202: Control the second display screen to output target display content with the target display parameters; wherein the target display content is the same as or different from the content output by the first display screen; and the power consumption of the second display screen under the first display parameters is less than the power consumption under the target display parameters.

[0045] In some implementations, the target display content may be window content dragged or moved from the first display screen.

[0046] In some implementations, the target display content may also be application window content newly created based on the target control instruction.

[0047] In some implementations, the target display content may also be the window content originally existing on the second display screen, or the originally existing window content and the moved window content (or the newly created window content).

[0048] In some implementations, the case where the target display content is the same as the content output by the first display screen is that the second display screen displays the window content dragged from the first display screen.

[0049] In some implementations, the situation where the target display content is different from the content output by the first display screen includes at least one of a newly created application window, window content originally displayed, and the like.

[0050] Exemplarily, after the display state of the second display screen is adjusted to the bright screen display state, when the target control instruction is to move the application window in the first display screen to the second display screen for display, the second display screen is controlled to display the window content dragged or moved from the first display screen in the bright screen state.

[0051] Exemplarily, after the display state of the second display screen is adjusted to the bright screen display state, when the target control instruction is to create a new application window on the second display screen or to display the original application window of the second display screen, the second display screen is controlled to display the content of the new application window or the content of the original window of the second display screen in the bright screen state.

[0052] In some implementations, controlling the second display screen to switch from the first display parameter to the target display parameter is a switch from low power consumption to higher power consumption, thereby solving the problem that the display mode of the device display screen cannot be intelligently switched under low power consumption.

[0053] In an embodiment of the present application, when the electronic device outputs content through the first display screen, in response to obtaining a target control instruction, the second display screen of the electronic device is controlled to switch from the current first display parameter to the target display parameter; and the second display screen is controlled to output the target display content with the target display parameter; wherein the target display content is the same as or different from the content output by the first display screen; and the power consumption of the second display screen under the first display parameter is less than the power consumption under the target display parameter. In this way, according to the target control instruction, the first display parameter of the second display screen is automatically switched to the target display parameter, and the target display content is output with the target display parameter, so as to realize intelligent switching of the second display screen from the low-power display parameter to the high-power display parameter.

[0054] In some embodiments, the step S101 described above of switching the second display screen of the electronic device from the current first display parameter to the target display parameter may include at least one of the following steps S111 to S113:

[0055] Step S111: obtaining a control object of the target control instruction, and controlling the second display screen of the electronic device to switch from a current first display parameter to a target display parameter matching the control object;

[0056] Here, the control object pointed to by the control instruction may be at least one of an application window, a file, a virtual object, and the like.

[0057] In some implementations, the target display parameters may be display parameters that match window parameters, window type, window source, etc. of the application window.

[0058] In some implementations, the target display parameter may be a display parameter that matches the file type, content, semantics, etc.

[0059] In some implementations, the target display parameters may be display parameters that match the state and type of the window's origin.

[0060] Exemplarily, multiple application windows are displayed on the first display screen. After the target application window that needs to be moved to the second display screen for display is determined from the multiple application windows, a window movement instruction is triggered, and the second display screen is switched from a black screen state to display parameters that match the window parameters, window type, and window source of the target application window, such as automatically lighting up the second display screen and setting the display brightness or display refresh rate of the second display screen to a brightness or display refresh rate that matches the window brightness or window content of the target application window, so as to display the application window.

[0061] Step S112: controlling the second display screen of the electronic device to switch from the current first display parameter to the target display parameter matching the target control instruction;

[0062] In some implementations, the target display parameter may be a parameter determined by relevant data of an application, an operator, etc. from which the target control instruction comes.

[0063] For example, in some embodiments, based on the source of the target control instruction, such as which application or operator it comes from, the display parameters of the second display screen are adjusted to display parameters that match the application state, application type, or operator habits or preferences of the application that generated the target control instruction.

[0064] For example, when the target control instruction comes from user A and user A is accustomed to using an operating interface with higher brightness, when user A drags the application window of the first display screen to the second display screen or creates a new application window on the second display screen, the second display screen can be switched from a black screen state to a higher brightness state.

[0065] Step S113: Control the second display screen of the target device to which the electronic device is connected to switch from the current first display parameter to the target display parameter.

[0066] In some implementations, the target device may be an extended display screen connected to the electronic device, a display device connected to the electronic device, or a PC device.

[0067] In some implementations, display parameters of the target device may be adjusted.

[0068] Exemplarily, the electronic device is connected to an extended display screen, a monitor device or a PC device; the extended display screen, the monitor device or the PC device has a second display screen; when the first display screen of the electronic device is outputting content, the second display screen is in a black screen state or a low-brightness state, and when it is necessary to move the window of the first display screen to the second display screen for display, a window movement instruction is triggered to control the second display screen to switch from the current black screen state or low-brightness state to a display brightness matching the application window moved from the first display screen, so as to display the application window.

[0069] In the embodiment of the present application, the control object of the target control instruction is obtained, and the second display screen of the electronic device is controlled to switch from the current first display parameter to the target display parameter matching the control object; the second display screen of the electronic device is controlled to switch from the current first display parameter to the target display parameter matching the target control instruction; the second display screen of the target device connected to the electronic device is controlled to switch from the current first display parameter to the target display parameter. In this way, the second display screen can be intelligently switched from the low-power first display parameter to the high-power target display parameter matching the control object of the target control instruction, the target display parameter matching the target control instruction, and the second display screen of the target device connected to the electronic device can be switched to the target display parameter.

[0070] In some embodiments, the above step S201 may further include at least one of the following steps S221 to S225:

[0071] Step S221: in response to obtaining a first instruction to move the first application window in the first display screen to the second display screen, controlling the second display screen to switch from a current first display parameter to a second display parameter matching the first application window and / or the first instruction;

[0072] In some implementations, the first application window may be a window of any application, such as a browser window, a music player application window, a video player window, or a game operation control window;

[0073] In some implementations, the first application window may be a main window of an application, or may be a sub-window of an application.

[0074] In some implementations, the first instruction may be at least one of a drag instruction, a move instruction, a position change instruction, and the like.

[0075] In some embodiments, the display parameters of the second display screen are adjusted to display parameters that match the attribute parameters or window parameters of the first application window, such as display parameters that match at least one of the window type, window size, application to which the window belongs, window theme style and theme color of the first application window.

[0076] For example, the content of windows such as browser windows, music player application windows, video player windows, and game operation control windows can be output in the first display screen, and the second display screen is in a black screen state or low brightness state. When the target application window in the first display screen needs to be moved to the second display screen for display, at least one application window in the first display screen can be moved to the second display screen by dragging operations, moving instructions, position change instructions, etc., and the second display screen is controlled to switch from the black screen state to display parameters that match at least one of the window type, window size, application to which the window belongs, window theme style and theme color, etc. of the target application window. For example, after dragging the video player window from the first display screen to the second display screen, the refresh rate of the second display screen is increased to a refresh rate that matches the video playback content.

[0077] Step S222: in response to obtaining a second instruction to create a new second application window on the second display screen, controlling the second display screen to switch from the current first display parameter to a third display parameter matching the second instruction and / or the second application window;

[0078] In some implementations, the second instruction may be a voice control instruction, a touch instruction, a character string instruction, a gesture instruction, or the like.

[0079] In some implementations, the display parameters that match the attribute parameters or window parameters of the second application window include, for example, the window type, the window size, the application to which the window belongs, the window theme style and theme color, and the like.

[0080] In some implementations, the display parameters that match the second instruction may refer to the source or user information of the second instruction to adjust the display parameters that match the source or user information of the second display instruction.

[0081] In some embodiments, controlling the second display screen to switch from the current first display parameter to a third display parameter matching the second instruction and / or the second application window includes at least one of the following:

[0082] Obtaining second window parameters of the second application window in the second display screen, and controlling the second display screen to switch from a current black screen state or a partial display state to a third display parameter matching the second window parameter based on the second window parameter;

[0083] Obtaining a content type of displayed content of the second application window, and controlling the second display screen to switch from the current third refresh rate to a fourth refresh rate based on the content type;

[0084] The source information of the second instruction is obtained, and based on the source information, the second display screen is controlled to switch from a current black screen state or a partial display state to a third display parameter matching the source information.

[0085] In some embodiments, controlling the second display screen to switch from a current black screen state or a partial display state to a third display parameter matching the second window parameter based on the second window parameter includes at least one of the following:

[0086] When the second window parameter indicates that the second application window is in a full-screen display state on the second display screen, control the second display screen to switch from a current black screen state or a partial display state to a full-screen display state or to display a fourth display area matching a resolution of the second application window;

[0087] When the second window parameter indicates that the second application window is displayed in the fifth display area of ​​the fourth display screen, control the fourth display screen to switch from the current black screen state to display in the sixth display area matching the fifth display area, or switch to a full screen display state;

[0088] When the second window parameter represents that the second application window has a second theme parameter, the second display screen is controlled to switch from the current black screen state or partial display state to a sixth display brightness, and the sixth display brightness matches the second theme parameter.

[0089] Exemplarily, the second display screen is in a black screen state or a low brightness state. If a new application window needs to be created on the second display screen for display, a voice control instruction, touch instruction, string instruction, or gesture instruction, etc., for creating a new application window on the second display screen is received, and the second display screen is controlled to switch from the current black screen state to display parameters that match the window type, window size, application to which the window belongs, and window theme style and theme color of the newly created application window, such as adjusting from the black screen state to the brightness that matches the theme color of the newly created application window to display the newly created application window. Or, if the newly created window is a text application window, the second display screen is switched from the current black screen state to the eye protection mode.

[0090] Step S223: in response to obtaining a third instruction for adjusting the window parameters of the third application window in the second display screen, controlling the second display screen to switch from the current first display parameter to a fourth display parameter matching the third instruction;

[0091] In some embodiments, the third instruction is used to adjust the window parameters of the application window that already exists on the second display screen, such as adjusting from non-full screen to full screen, and the corresponding display parameters may be adjusted from split screen to full screen display.

[0092] In some implementations, the third instruction is used to adjust the window theme style or theme color, which may correspond to adjusting at least one of the brightness, theme color, skin, etc. of the entire screen.

[0093] In some implementations, the third instruction is used to adjust the window position or window shape, and may correspond to adjusting at least one of the display area size or display area shape or the position of the display bright area of ​​the display screen.

[0094] Exemplarily, the second display screen is in a black screen state or a low brightness state, and an existing application window in the second display screen needs to be adjusted, such as adjusting from non-full screen to full screen, or controlling the second display screen to switch from the current black screen state to the full screen state.

[0095] Exemplarily, it is necessary to adjust the theme style or theme color of the application window in the second display screen, and control the second display screen to correspondingly adjust the brightness, theme color, and skin of the entire screen.

[0096] Exemplarily, the window position or window shape of the application window in the second display screen needs to be adjusted, and an instruction for adjusting the existing application window in the second display screen is received, and the second display screen is controlled to correspondingly adjust the display area size or display area shape or display bright area position.

[0097] Step S224: in response to obtaining a fourth instruction for adjusting the display parameters of the first display screen, controlling the second display screen to switch from the current first display parameter to a fifth display parameter matching the fourth instruction;

[0098] In some embodiments, the fourth instruction includes adjusting at least one of display screen brightness, display area size, display status, display refresh rate, etc.

[0099] In some implementations, at least one of the display brightness, display state, display area size and position, display refresh rate, etc. of the second display screen may be adjusted accordingly according to the fourth instruction.

[0100] Exemplarily, the first display screen outputs the content of the application window, and the second display screen is in a black screen state or a low-brightness state. When it is necessary to adjust the display brightness, display area size, display status, display refresh rate, etc. of the application window of the first display screen, the display parameter adjustment instruction is triggered, and the second display screen is controlled to adjust the display brightness, display status, display area size and position, display refresh rate, etc. accordingly.

[0101] Step S225: In response to obtaining a fifth instruction to move the target file in the first display screen to the second display screen, controlling the second display screen to switch from the current first display parameter to a sixth display parameter matching the target file and / or the fifth instruction.

[0102] In some implementations, the target file may include at least one of a document, an image, a video, an audio, a program file, and the like.

[0103] In some embodiments, after the target file is moved to the second display screen, the second display screen can be controlled to display at least one of full screen, partial, low brightness, high resolution, etc. according to the file type or file content.

[0104] In some implementations, the fifth instruction may include at least one of a drag instruction, a move instruction, a position change instruction, and the like.

[0105] In some implementations, according to the fifth instruction, the second display screen is controlled to output the display content of the target file.

[0106] Exemplarily, the target file can be displayed on the first display screen, such as displaying the target file in a specific folder or on the desktop. The target file may include documents, images, videos, audios, program files, etc. The second display screen is in a black screen state or a bright screen state. When it is necessary to move the target file in the first display screen to the second display screen for display, a drag operation, a move instruction, a position change instruction, etc. that can move the target file from the first display screen to the second display screen is triggered, and the second display screen is controlled to perform full-screen display, partial display, low-brightness display, high-resolution display, etc. according to the file type or file content of the target file.

[0107] In the embodiment of the present application, a first instruction for moving the first application window in the first display screen to the second display screen is obtained, and the second display screen is controlled to switch from the current first display parameter to the second display parameter matching the first application window and / or the first instruction; a second instruction for creating a new second application window in the second display screen is obtained, and the second display screen is controlled to switch from the current first display parameter to the third display parameter matching the second instruction and / or the second application window; a third instruction for adjusting the window parameters of the third application window in the second display screen is obtained, and the second display screen is controlled to switch from the current first display parameter to the fourth display parameter matching the third instruction; a fourth instruction for adjusting the display parameters of the first display screen is obtained, and the second display screen is controlled to switch from the current first display parameter to the fifth display parameter matching the fourth instruction; a fifth instruction for moving the target file in the first display screen to the second display screen is obtained, and the second display screen is controlled to switch from the current first display parameter to the sixth display parameter matching the target file and / or the fifth instruction. In this way, the display parameters of the second display screen can be flexibly switched according to different target control instructions.

[0108] In some embodiments, obtaining the target control instruction may include at least one of the following steps S231 to S234:

[0109] Step S231: in response to obtaining a touch operation acting on the first display screen and / or the second display screen, generating the target control instruction based on an operation parameter of the touch operation;

[0110] In some implementations, the touch operation may be an operation of dragging a window, such as a throwing operation of throwing an application window on a first display screen to a second display screen, a palm slide, or a multi-finger track.

[0111] In some embodiments, the touch operation can be an operation track for creating a new application window, such as at least one of a click operation for starting a new application or creating a new application window on the first display screen, an operation for inputting a string, an operation for circling an application icon on the display screen, etc.

[0112] In some implementations, the touch operation may be at least one of a zooming operation on a window or an object on the second display screen, an operation of changing a window position, shape, or configuration parameters, and the like.

[0113] For example, the first display screen outputs the content of the application window, and the second display screen is in a black screen state or low brightness state. When the application window in the first display screen needs to be moved to the second display screen for display, a target control instruction can be generated through a touch operation, and the touch operation can throw the application window of the first display screen to the second display screen through a throwing operation, palm sliding, and multi-finger trajectory. The touch operation can also scale the window or an object on the second display screen, change the window position shape, and configure parameters.

[0116] In some embodiments, the sensing area may be at least one of a detection area of ​​a time of flight (TOF) technology, a camera detection area, a microphone sensing area, and the like.

[0117] Exemplarily, according to user needs, the target sensing area of ​​the electronic device can detect the interaction data and generate corresponding target control instructions; wherein the target sensing area can be time-of-flight technology, camera detection area, microphone sensing area, etc.; the interaction data can be object data, voice data, spatial gesture data, etc. For example, in the camera's framing area, use a finger to indicate a directional window movement or a directional operation of file movement to move the file or window displayed on the first display screen to the second display screen, and trigger the second display screen to switch to the target display parameters to display the file or window.

[0118] Step S233: in response to detecting that the communication connection between the electronic device and the target device changes, generating the target control instruction;

[0119] In some implementations, the target device may be another electronic device connected via a cable television cable, or may be an electronic device that establishes communication via a wireless connection.

[0120] In some implementations, the communication connection changes, which may be the establishment of a communication connection or the disconnection of a communication connection.

[0121] In some implementations, the position of the display window on the original extended screen may be adjusted after disconnection or establishment of the connection, such as connecting the content displayed on the extended screen to the second display screen.

[0122] Exemplarily, the electronic device can be connected to the target device via a wired cable, or can establish communication with the target device via a wireless connection. The target device can be an external extended display screen. The target device has a second display screen, and when it detects that a communication connection is established between the electronic device and the target device, a target control instruction is generated to connect the content displayed on the extended display screen to the second display screen to display the application window.

[0123] Step S234: In response to the usage scenario of the electronic device being adjusted from the current first usage scenario to the target usage scenario, the target control instruction is generated based on the target usage scenario, and the usage scenario includes at least one of the usage environment, usage object, usage mode, and usage configuration parameters of the electronic device.

[0124] In some embodiments, the usage scenario of the electronic device is adjusted from the current first usage scenario to the target usage scenario, which may include at least one of a change in the usage environment, a change in the usage object, a change in the usage mode, a change in the configuration parameters of the configuration options, etc.

[0125] In some embodiments, the usage environment may include an office environment, a meeting scene, a home environment, an entertainment scene, etc. Considering that in different scenes, the device needs to switch to different display modes or display states.

[0126] In some implementations, when entering a meeting scene, it is necessary to display the note window of the meeting application on the second display screen to facilitate recording of meeting minutes.

[0127] In some embodiments, in an entertainment scenario, corresponding lighting effects or sound effects are output on the second display screen.

[0128] In some embodiments, the number of objects used is unique or not unique. When the number of objects used is unique, security may not be considered; when the number of objects used is not unique, security needs to be considered. Therefore, the window that requires privacy protection can be moved to a non-projected screen, such as a second display screen, or the chat window can be moved to the second display screen for use.

[0129] In some implementations, the display parameters of the display screen of the electronic device may be adjusted accordingly based on the usage habits or preferences of different users.

[0130] In some implementations, the usage mode may be at least one of a single-screen mode, a dual-screen mode, a horizontal screen mode, a vertical screen mode, and the like.

[0131] In some implementations, the corresponding usage mode may be switched based on historical usage data.

[0132] In some implementations, configuration parameters including whether to disable a touchpad, whether to disable a virtual keyboard, etc. are used to determine a usage state and / or a display layout of the second display screen.

[0133] Exemplarily, the electronic device can be used in multiple scenarios including office environments, meeting scenarios, home environments, entertainment scenarios, etc. The requirements in each usage scenario are different. When switching the usage scenario, it is necessary to generate control instructions corresponding to the usage scenario. For example, the usage scenario of the electronic device is adjusted from the current meeting scenario to the home scene, and the corresponding target control instructions are generated based on the usage environment, usage object, usage mode, and usage configuration parameters of the electronic device in the home scene.

[0134] In an embodiment of the present application, the method for obtaining a target control instruction may include at least one of the following: obtaining a touch operation acting on the first display screen and / or the second display screen, and generating a target control instruction based on the operation parameters of the touch operation; obtaining interaction data acting on the target sensing area of ​​the electronic device, and generating a target control instruction based on the interaction data; detecting a change in the communication connection between the electronic device and the target device, and generating a target control instruction; adjusting the use scenario of the electronic device from the current first use scenario to the target use scenario, and generating a target control instruction based on the target use scenario, wherein the use scenario includes at least one of the use environment, use object, use mode, and use configuration parameters of the electronic device. In this way, multiple control instructions can be supported to switch the display parameters of the second display screen.

[0135] In some embodiments, the controlling of the second display screen to switch from the current first display parameter to the second display parameter matching the first application window and / or the first instruction described in step S221 may include at least one of the following steps S241 to S243:

[0138] In some embodiments, the black screen state may include a screen off state or a minimum brightness state.

[0139] In some embodiments, the local display state may include a split-screen display state or a partial area display state.

[0140] In some implementations, the second display parameter that matches the first window parameter may be determined according to the display state of the first application window.

[0141] In some implementations, when the first application window is displayed in full screen on the first display screen, the second display screen is controlled to also be displayed in full screen.

[0142] In some embodiments, according to the resolution of the first application window in the first display screen, the second display screen is controlled to switch from a black screen or split screen display state to a resolution corresponding to the resolution of the first application window in the first display screen.

[0143] In some embodiments, the first application window is displayed in the left half screen or the middle area of ​​the first display screen, and in response to the target control instruction, the second display screen is controlled to switch from a black screen state to at least one of full screen display, partial display or split screen display.

[0144] In some embodiments, when the first application window is a black-themed window, the second display screen is controlled to be adjusted from the screen off to the lowest brightness or from the lowest brightness to a low brightness.

[0145] In some implementations, when the first application window displays static content, the second display screen is controlled to switch from a black screen to a display parameter with a minimum refresh rate in response to the target control instruction.

[0146] Exemplarily, the first display screen outputs the content of the first application window and obtains the first window parameters of the first application window, wherein the first window parameters include the window display size, the display position when not displayed in full screen, the window theme style, the window theme color, and the window content type; the second display screen is in a black screen state or a partial display state, and the first application window is moved from the first display screen to the second display screen for display. The display parameters of the second display screen can be controlled to make corresponding adjustments according to the first window parameters of the first application window to display the first application window.

[0147] Step S242: obtaining a content type of the display content of the first application window, and controlling the second display screen to switch from the current first refresh rate to a second refresh rate based on the content type;

[0148] In some embodiments, the content type may be static content or dynamic content. If the content is static, a low refresh rate is set; if the content is dynamic, a high refresh rate is set; or a refresh rate is set to match the refresh rate of the displayed content.

[0149] Exemplarily, the first display screen outputs the content of the first application window and obtains the content type of the displayed content of the first application window, wherein the content type may be static content or dynamic content; the second display screen is controlled to adjust the refresh rate according to the content type of the displayed content, that is, when the content type is static content, the refresh rate of the second display screen is adjusted to a low refresh rate; when the content type is dynamic content, the refresh rate of the second display screen is adjusted to a high refresh rate.

[0150] Step S243: Obtain source information of the first instruction, and control the second display screen to switch from a current black screen state or a partial display state to a second display parameter matching the source information based on the source information.

[0151] In some embodiments, the first instruction is triggered by someone, and then the user's historical usage data or user portrait information is obtained, and then the user portrait is referred to when adjusting the second display parameters to control the second display screen from a black screen state or a partial display state to a corresponding display area size, display brightness, display position, display theme and other corresponding parameters.

[0152] Exemplarily, the first display screen outputs the content of the application window, and the second display screen is in a black screen state or a partial display state. When it is necessary to move the application window of the first display screen to the second display screen, a window move instruction is triggered, and the triggering user of the move instruction and the usage data or user portrait information of the triggering user are obtained to determine the reference user portrait displayed on the second display screen; according to the reference user portrait, the second display screen is controlled to adjust from the black screen state or the partial display state to the corresponding display parameters such as display area size, display brightness, display position, display theme, etc.

[0153] In the embodiment of the present application, the first window parameter of the first application window in the first display screen is obtained, and the second display screen is controlled to switch from the current black screen state or partial display state to the second display parameter matching the first window parameter based on the first window parameter; the content type of the display content of the first application window is obtained, and the second display screen is controlled to switch from the current first refresh rate to the second refresh rate based on the content type; the source information of the first instruction is obtained, and the second display screen is controlled to switch from the current black screen state or partial display state to the second display parameter matching the source information based on the source information. In this way, according to the first instruction, the second display screen can be controlled to realize the adjustment corresponding to the first window parameter, the displayed content type, and the source information of the first instruction.

[0154] In some embodiments, the step S241 of controlling the second display screen to switch from the current black screen state or partial display state to the second display parameters matching the first window parameters based on the first window parameters includes at least one of the following steps S251 to S253:

[0155] Step S251: when the first window parameter indicates that the first application window is in a full-screen display state in the first display screen, control the second display screen to switch from a current black screen state or a partial display state to a full-screen display state or to display a first display area matching a resolution of the first application window;

[0156] In some implementations, when the first application window is displayed in full screen on the first display screen, the second display screen is controlled to switch from a black screen state or a partial display state to a full screen display state.

[0157] In some implementations, based on the resolution difference of the first application window, the second display screen is controlled to switch from a black screen state or a partial display state to an area displaying a corresponding resolution.

[0158] In some embodiments, when the first application window is displayed in the left half screen or the middle area of ​​the first display screen, the second display screen is controlled to switch from a black screen state or a partial display state to at least one of full screen display, partial display or split screen display.

[0159] Exemplarily, when the browser window is in a full-screen display state in the first display screen, under the control instruction that the browser window is moved to the second display screen, the second display screen is controlled to switch from the current black screen state or partial display state to a full-screen display state or to display an area of ​​a corresponding resolution that matches the resolution of the browser window.

[0160] Step S252: when the first window parameter indicates that the first application window is displayed in the second display area of ​​the first display screen, control the second display screen to switch from a current black screen state to a third display area matching the second display area, or switch to a full screen display state;

[0161] In some embodiments, when the first application window is displayed in the second display area of ​​the first display screen, the second display screen is controlled to switch from the current black screen state to a full-screen display state or a partial display state, and the partial display state is displayed in a third display area matching the second display area.

[0162] Exemplarily, when a browser window is displayed in the second display area of ​​a first display screen, in response to a target control instruction, the second display screen is controlled to switch from the current black screen state to a third display area matching the second display area, or to switch to a full-screen display state to output the display content corresponding to the browser window.

[0164] In some implementations, the brightness of the second display screen is adjusted accordingly according to the theme parameters of the first application window.

[0165] In some embodiments, when the first application window is a black-themed window, the second display screen is controlled to be adjusted from the screen off to the minimum brightness or from the minimum brightness to a low brightness.

[0166] Exemplarily, when the browser window is a black-themed window, the second display screen is controlled to switch from a current black screen state or a partial display state to a display brightness matching the black theme.

[0167] In an embodiment of the present application, when the first window parameter represents that the first application window is in a full-screen display state in the first display screen, the second display screen is controlled to switch from the current black screen state or partial display state to the full-screen display state or display the first display area matching the resolution of the first application window; when the first window parameter represents that the first application window is displayed in the second display area of ​​the first display screen, the second display screen is controlled to switch from the current black screen state to display in the third display area matching the second display area, or switch to the full-screen display state; when the first window parameter represents that the first application window has the first theme parameter, the second display screen is controlled to switch from the current black screen state or partial display state to the first display brightness, and the first display brightness matches the first theme parameter. In this way, the display parameters of the second display screen can be switched according to the different information represented by the first window.

[0170] In some implementations, when the brightness of the first display screen is lowered, the second display screen is controlled to enter a black screen state or to lower the brightness.

[0171] Exemplarily, in response to obtaining an instruction to lower the display brightness of the first display screen to the second display brightness, the second display screen is controlled to switch from the current partial display state to the black screen state, or the display brightness of the second display screen is lowered.

[0172] Step S262: in response to obtaining an instruction to lower the display refresh rate of the first display screen to a third refresh rate, controlling the second display screen to switch from a current partial display state to a black screen state, or controlling the display refresh rate of the second display screen to be lowered to a third refresh rate or a fourth refresh rate, wherein the fourth refresh rate is greater than or less than the third refresh rate;

[0173] In some embodiments, when the refresh rate of the first display screen is lowered, the second display screen is controlled to enter a black screen state or to be adjusted to a lower refresh rate;

[0174] In some implementations, when the refresh rate of the first display screen is increased, the refresh rate of the second display screen is controlled to be increased.

[0175] Exemplarily, in response to obtaining an instruction to lower the display refresh rate of the first display screen to a third refresh rate, the second display screen is switched from a current partial display state to a black screen state, or the display refresh rate of the second display screen is lowered.

[0176] In response to obtaining that the first display screen is adjusted to the screen-off state, step S263 controls the second display screen to switch from the current black screen state to the bright screen state to display the display content of the first display screen.

[0177] In some implementations, after the first display screen is turned off, the second display screen is controlled to switch from a current black screen state to a bright screen state to output display content.

[0178] Exemplarily, in response to obtaining that the first display screen is adjusted to the screen-off state, the second display screen is switched from the current black screen state to the bright screen state to display the display content of the first display screen.

[0179] In the embodiment of the present application, an instruction to adjust the display brightness of the first display screen to the second display brightness is obtained, and the second display screen is controlled to switch from the current local display state to the black screen state, or the display brightness of the second display screen is controlled to be adjusted down to the second display brightness or the third display brightness, and the third display brightness is greater than or less than the second display brightness; an instruction to adjust the display refresh rate of the first display screen to the third refresh rate is obtained, and the second display screen is controlled to switch from the current local display state to the black screen state, or the display refresh rate of the second display screen is controlled to be adjusted down to the third refresh rate or the fourth refresh rate, and the fourth refresh rate is greater than or less than the third refresh rate; in the case of adjusting the first display screen to the off screen state, the second display screen is controlled to switch from the current black screen state to the bright screen state to display the display content of the first display screen. In this way, the display brightness, display size, display state, display refresh rate, etc. of the second display screen can be adjusted according to the fourth instruction.

[0180] In some embodiments, the controlling the second display screen to switch from the current first display parameter to the sixth display parameter matching the target file in the above step S224 may include the following step S171:

[0181] Step S271: obtaining type information and / or content information of the target file, and controlling the second display screen to switch from the current first display parameter to a corresponding display parameter based on the type and / or content information.

[0182] In some implementations, the type information includes at least one of a document, an image, a video, an audio, a program file, and the like.

[0184] Exemplarily, the contents of a target file are output on a first display screen, and when the target file needs to be moved to a second display screen for display, the content information and / or type information of the target file is obtained; after the target file is moved to the second display screen, the second display screen is controlled to perform full-screen display, partial display, low-brightness display, high-resolution display, etc. according to the file type or file content.

[0185] Controlling the second display screen to switch from the current first display parameter to the corresponding display parameter based on the type information and / or content information may include at least one of the following steps S272 to S274:

[0186] Step S272: when the target file is a document file, controlling the second display screen to switch from the current black screen state or partial display state to a full screen display state, or to an eye protection mode;

[0187] Exemplarily, the document file is displayed on the first display screen, and when the document file on the first display screen is dragged to the second display screen, the second display screen is controlled to switch from the current black screen state to the eye protection mode.

[0188] Step S273: when the target file is an image file, control the second display screen to switch from the current partial display state to the full screen display state, or increase the current fourth display brightness to the fifth display brightness;

[0189] In some implementations, when the target file is an image file, the second display screen is controlled to switch to full screen display or increase the brightness when displaying the target file.

[0190] Exemplarily, the image file is displayed on the first display screen, and when the image file on the first display screen is dragged to the second display screen, the display brightness of the second display screen is increased.

[0191] Step S274: When the target file includes the first display content or is a video file, the refresh rate of the second display screen is controlled to be increased to the fifth refresh rate.

[0192] Here, the first display content may be dynamic display content.

[0193] In some implementations, when the target file includes the first display content or is a video file, the refresh rate is increased when the second display screen is controlled to display the target file.

[0194] Exemplarily, the video file is displayed on the first display screen, and when the video file on the first display screen is dragged to the second display screen, the refresh rate of the second display screen is increased.

[0195] In an embodiment of the present application, the second display screen is controlled to switch from the current first display parameter to the corresponding display parameter based on the type and / or content information; wherein, the second display screen is controlled to switch from the current first display parameter to the corresponding display parameter based on the type information and / or content information, including one of the following: when the target file belongs to a document file, the second display screen is controlled to switch from the current black screen state or partial display state to the full screen display state, or, switch to the eye protection mode; when the target file belongs to an image file, the second display screen is controlled to switch from the current partial display state to the full screen display state, or, increase the display brightness from the current fourth display brightness to the fifth display brightness; when the target file includes the first display content or belongs to a video file, the refresh rate of the second display screen is controlled to increase to the fifth refresh rate. In this way, the target file can be switched from the first display screen to the second display screen to output the display content according to the type and / or content of the target file.

[0196] In some embodiments, controlling the second display screen to output the target display content with the target display parameters may include the following steps S281:

[0197] Step S281: When the electronic device is in the first display mode, control the electronic device to switch from the first display mode to the second display mode, so as to call the system management service to display the target display content on the second display screen; or, when the electronic device is in the second display mode, use the display driver to display the target display content in the target display area that matches the target display parameters.

[0198] Here, the first display mode may be a single-screen display; the second display mode may be a dual-screen display or an extended mode.

[0199] In some implementations, the system management service is Windows management.

[0200] In some embodiments, the user uses a mouse or finger to drag the window to display the window layout control. At this time, it is first detected whether the current display mode is in the first display mode. If it is detected that the current display mode is in the first display mode (displayonly), the program will first call the display setting (display setting) to set the display mode to the second display mode, and then call the system management service function to display the window on the second display screen. If it is not currently in the first display mode, but the user adjusts the brightness of the lower screen to the minimum to achieve the purpose of power saving, at this time, the program first calls the display driver interface to adjust the brightness, and then displays the window on the corresponding second display screen, and at the same time opens a pure black mask layer to cover the remaining area to keep the OLED power saving.

[0201] In the embodiment of the present application, when the electronic device is in the first display mode, the electronic device is controlled to switch from the first display mode to the second display mode, so as to call the system management service to display and output the target display content on the second display screen; or, when the electronic device is in the second display mode, the display driver is used to display and output the target display content in the target display area matching the target display parameters.

[0245] The embodiment of the present application provides a method for intelligently detecting window movement behavior and automatically helping the user to light up the screen.

[0246] like Figure 4A As shown, the window 303 in the upper screen 301 (corresponding to the first display screen in the above embodiment) is in full screen display state, and the lower screen 302 (corresponding to the second display screen in the above embodiment) is turned off or the brightness is adjusted to the minimum to achieve the purpose of power saving. When the user drags the window, as shown in FIG. Figure 4B As shown, using the window moving function, the window 303 in the upper screen 301 is moved to the lower screen 302, the lower screen 302 is automatically lit, and the display content of the window 303 is successfully moved to the lower screen 302 for display.

[0247] like Figure 5A As shown, the window 303 in the upper screen 301 is in the windowed state, and the lower screen 302 is turned off to save power. When the user moves the window, if the split screen control is used, the window is moved to the closed screen, as shown in FIG. Figure 5B As shown, the window management automatically lights up the lower screen 302, and at the same time sets a pure black mask to fill the remaining area of ​​the moved window, retaining the content of the display window 303, and other areas are still unavailable, so as to achieve the effect of pure black without light emission under OLED to save power.

[0248] like Figure 5C As shown, the window displayed in the window 303 in the lower screen 301 is moved to the upper screen 301 for display. The window 303 can be moved to the upper screen 301 as shown in FIG. Figure 5AThe corresponding position of the window 303 in the upper screen 301 is shown.

[0249] In an embodiment of the present application, the user uses a mouse or finger to drag the window to display the window layout control. At this time, it is first detected whether the current display mode is single-screen. If it is detected that the current display mode is single-screen, the program will first call the display settings, set the display mode to extended mode, and then call the system management service function to display the window on the corresponding screen.

[0250] If the current display mode is not single-screen, but the user adjusts the brightness of the lower screen window to the minimum to save power, the program first calls the display driver interface to adjust the brightness, then displays the window on the corresponding screen, and opens a pure black mask layer to cover the remaining area to keep the OLED power-saving.

[0251] like Figure 6 As shown, the method may include the following steps S501 to S509:

[0252] Step S501: the user drags the window;

[0253] Step S502: Detect whether the current display mode is single-screen display; if so, proceed to step S506; if not, proceed to step S503;

[0254] Step S503: Check whether the brightness is very low (0-50%); if so, proceed to step S504; if not, proceed to step S505;

[0255] Step S504: Increase the brightness and layout the window on the corresponding screen;

[0256] Step S505: directly layout the window on the corresponding screen;

[0257] Step S506: Determine whether the window is windowed or maximized; if it is windowed, proceed to step S507; if it is maximized, proceed to step S508;

[0258] Step S507: Get the area and position of the window, and place a pure black mask with the size of the screen minus the area on the lower screen to cover the screen area, minimize the original lower screen window, and layout the upper screen window to the corresponding position of the lower screen;

[0259] Step S508: calling display settings to set the display mode to extended mode;

[0260] Step S509: the lower screen is lit up, and the window management function arranges the window on the screen that has just been lit up.
