[0104] Take the operating system as a desktop operating system, and the elements displayed in the taskbar are arranged in a compact manner as an example. Figure 6 , which shows a schematic diagram of the taskbar of a desktop operating system provided by another embodiment of the present application. After excluding the occupied positions in the taskbar, an unoccupied area 60 is obtained. When the alignment of the lyrics is left-aligned, the lyrics display position is determined in the area to the left of the unoccupied area 60. For example, the lyrics display position is determined in the unoccupied sub-area 61 of the unoccupied area 60. When the alignment of the lyrics is right-aligned, the lyrics display position is determined in the area to the right of the unoccupied area 60. For example, the lyrics display position is determined in the unoccupied sub-area 63 of the unoccupied area 60. When the alignment of the lyrics is center-aligned, the lyrics display position is determined in the center area of ​​the unoccupied area 60. For example, the lyrics display position is determined in the unoccupied sub-area 62 of the unoccupied area 60.

[0105] It should be noted that, based on the display mode of the displayed elements in the taskbar of different operating systems, the lyrics display position is determined in the area of ​​the taskbar other than the occupied position based on a similar method.

As Figure 7 As shown in sub - figure (b), the display mode of the task bar is the dark mode, the background color of the task bar is black, and the color of the lyrics displayed in the task bar is a combination of gray and white. Among them, the color of the played lyrics is gray, and the color of the unplayed lyrics is white.

[0116] In some embodiments, the color parameters of the lyrics can be user - defined. That is, the user can customize the color of the lyrics displayed in the task bar in the target application.

[0117] The landscape - portrait parameter is used to indicate the display direction of the task bar or the display direction of the screen. In some embodiments, according to the height information and width information of the task bar, the landscape - portrait parameter of the task bar is determined. In some embodiments, when the height of the task bar is less than the width of the task bar, it is determined that the task bar is displayed in the vertical direction; when the height of the task bar is greater than the width of the task bar, it is determined that the task bar is displayed in the horizontal direction. When the task bar is displayed in the horizontal direction, the lyrics are arranged from left to right in the task bar. When the task bar is displayed in the vertical direction, the lyrics are arranged from top to bottom in the task bar.

[0118] Exemplarily, please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 , Figure 7 As shown in sub - figure (a) of Figure 8 and sub - figure (a) of Figure 7 The display mode of the task bar is the light mode, the background color of the task bar is white, and the color of the lyrics displayed in the task bar is a combination of gray and black.

In

[0119] The size parameter is used to indicate the maximum area occupied by the lyrics in the task bar. In some embodiments, the size parameter is used to indicate the height and width of the lyrics window. In some embodiments, the height of the lyrics window is equal to the height of the task bar. In some embodiments, the size parameter can be user - defined. That is, the user can customize the size of the lyrics displayed in the task bar in the target application.

[0120] In some embodiments, the display parameters further include at least one of the following: font parameters, update method, multi-line display, etc., and may further include other display parameters, which are not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0121] The font parameter is used to indicate the font style of the sub-graphs displayed in the task bar. In some embodiments, the font parameter includes at least one of the following: font type, font size, font bold, font italic, font shadow, etc., and may further include other font parameters, which are not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0122] The update method refers to the way the lyrics displayed on the task bar are updated as the song plays. In some embodiments, the update method includes at least one of the following: word-by-word highlighting, single-line scrolling, static paging, fade-in from left to right, fade-in from top to bottom, etc., and may further include other update methods, which are not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0123] Multi-line display is used to indicate whether the task bar supports multi-line display. In some embodiments, the number of lines of lyrics to be displayed is determined according to the height of the lyrics and the height of the task bar. The number of lines of lyrics to be displayed refers to the number of lines of lyrics that are simultaneously displayed on the task bar. In some instances, the number of lines of lyrics to be displayed is obtained by rounding down the height of the task bar divided by the height of the lyrics.

[0124] By the above method, by determining the respective display parameters of the lyrics, the lyrics can be adapted to be displayed on different task bars, effectively improving the visual experience effect of the user.

[0125] In summary, the technical solution provided by the embodiments of the present application embeds and displays the lyrics of the song in the lyrics display position of the task bar while the song is playing, enriching the way of displaying lyrics, and does not require occupying a large amount of screen space to display lyrics, effectively improving the utilization rate of the screen space.

[0126] In addition, the technical solution provided by the embodiments of the present application still displays the lyrics of the currently playing song in the task bar even when the user interface of the target application is minimized or closed, avoiding the problem that the lyrics window affects the operation of other windows, and simplifying the steps of viewing lyrics.

[0127] The process of creating and maintaining the lyrics window is introduced below.

[0128] In some embodiments, the steps of creating the lyrics window when the task bar lyrics function is enabled.

[0129] In some embodiments, a lyrics window bound with a lyrics rendering control is created. The lyrics rendering control is used to render the lyrics, and the lyrics window is used to display the lyrics; the lyrics window is associated with the handle of the task bar window to embed the lyrics window in the task bar, and the task bar window is used to display the task bar.

[0130] The lyrics window refers to a window embedded in the taskbar for displaying lyrics. The lyrics rendering control is used to draw and update the content of the lyrics in the lyrics window. For example, the lyrics rendering control is used to implement effects such as dynamic scrolling and color gradient of the lyrics. In some embodiments, the lyrics rendering control is bound to the lyrics data; based on the timestamp of the current song playback, the lyrics rendering control renders the corresponding lyrics in the lyrics window. The lyrics data refers to the information used to store and identify the lyrics of a song, including the lyrics text and its correspondence with the song playback progress. In this way, the lyrics content corresponding to the currently playing song is obtained in real time, and the synchronization between the playback progress and the lyrics display is achieved.

[0131] In some embodiments, when the taskbar lyrics function is enabled, a lyrics window bound to the lyrics rendering control is created.

[0132] In some embodiments, the lyrics are rendered and generated by the lyrics rendering control based on the display parameters of the lyrics.

[0133] The handle of the taskbar window is the same as the handle of the taskbar mentioned above. The handle of the taskbar window is used to uniquely identify the taskbar window. A handle is an abstract reference used by the operating system to identify and manage resources. It is usually a unique numerical value or pointer that represents indirect access to system resources such as windows, files, and memory blocks.

[0134] Associating the lyrics window with the handle of the taskbar window is to embed the lyrics window in the taskbar and to synchronize the lyrics display position and the behavior of the lyrics window with the taskbar. In some embodiments, the lyrics window is set as a child window of the taskbar window. That is to say, in this case, the taskbar window is the parent window of the lyrics window, which means there is a parent-child inheritance relationship between the taskbar window and the lyrics window.

[0135] In this way, the lyrics window and the taskbar window are associated, so that the lyrics window can monitor the changes of the taskbar window in real time, and adjust the lyrics window and the lyrics display position in a timely manner to automatically adapt to the changes of the taskbar.

[0136] In some embodiments, start or restart the timer; during the operation of the timer, detect whether the lyrics window meets the conditions, and the conditions include: there is a handle of the taskbar window, and the lyrics window has been associated with the handle of the taskbar window; when the lyrics window meets the conditions, perform the step of embedding the lyrics in the taskbar based on the lyrics display position, or start executing from the step of determining the lyrics display position in the taskbar.

[0137] The timer is used to periodically check and monitor the lyrics window. In some embodiments, the timing duration of the timer is preset by relevant technical personnel. For example, the timing duration of the timer is 1 second. That is, starting from the first startup of the timer, the timer is restarted every 1 second. It should be noted that the timing duration of the timer can be any time, which is set by relevant technical personnel according to requirements, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this.

[0138] In some embodiments, during the operation of the timer, when it is detected that the lyrics window does not meet the conditions, the lyrics are not displayed in the task bar.

[0139] In some embodiments, during the operation of the timer, the handle of the task bar window is obtained; when the handle of the task bar window is obtained during the operation of the timer, it is determined that there is a handle of the task bar window; when the handle of the task bar window is not obtained during the operation of the timer, it is determined that there is no handle of the task bar window. In some embodiments, the situation where the handle of the task bar window cannot be obtained includes: the task bar is not started or not displayed due to system errors or configuration problems. For example, the process where the task bar is located crashes and has not been restored yet.

[0140] In some embodiments, during the operation of the timer, when there is a parent-child inheritance relationship between the task bar window and the lyrics window, it is determined that the lyrics window is associated with the handle of the task bar window; when there is no parent-child inheritance relationship between the task bar window and the lyrics window during the operation of the timer, it is determined that the lyrics window is not associated with the handle of the task bar window.

[0141] In some embodiments, during the timer period, the elements already displayed in the task bar are traversed; when the elements already displayed in the task bar have not changed and it is not the first startup of the timer, the step of embedding the lyrics in the task bar based on the lyrics display position is executed; when the elements already displayed in the task bar change, or it is the first startup of the timer, the step of determining the lyrics display position in the task bar is started to be executed.

[0142] In the above manner, by starting or restarting the timer to periodically determine whether the lyrics window meets the condition of being displayed in the task bar, and determining whether the lyrics display position needs to be adjusted during the operation of the timer, it helps to improve the responsiveness of the system.

[0143] In some embodiments, when a task bar crash message is received, the execution starts again from the step of creating a lyrics window bound with a lyrics rendering control, where the task bar crash message is used to indicate that an abnormality occurs in the task bar display.

[0144] The task bar crash information refers to the system global information broadcast when the task bar in the operating system malfunctions or restarts after a crash. In some embodiments, the task bar crash information is broadcast when the task bar is created or restarted.

[0145] When the task bar crashes and restarts, since the previous task bar window has been destroyed, its child windows, including the embedded lyrics window, will also be destroyed, which results in the problem that the lyrics are no longer displayed after the task bar crashes and restarts. Therefore, it is necessary to re-associate the lyrics window with the newly created task bar window.

[0146] Through the above method, after the task bar crashes, when the lyrics window receives the task bar crash information, it is re-associated with the new task bar to quickly restore the function of displaying lyrics in the task bar, reducing the negative impact on the task bar lyrics function caused by system failures.

[0147] The following introduces other functions related to the task bar lyrics function.

[0148] In some embodiments, in response to an operation on the lyrics displayed in the task bar, playback control controls are displayed in the task bar, and the playback control controls are used to control the playback of the song.

[0149] The operation on the lyrics displayed in the task bar refers to the operation that triggers the display of the playback control controls in the task bar. In some embodiments, the operation on the lyrics displayed in the task bar can be implemented by at least one of the following methods: physical control trigger, touch operation, voice control, etc. Other methods can also be used to implement the operation on the lyrics displayed in the task bar, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this.

[0150] In some embodiments, the playback control controls include at least one of the following: the previous song control, the play / pause control, the next song control, the volume control, the playback progress bar, the playback order control, the favorite control, etc. Other controls may also be included, which are not limited in the embodiments of the present application. The previous song control is used to switch to playing the previous song. The play / pause control is used to play or pause the current song. The next song control is used to switch to playing the next song. The volume control is used to adjust the volume of the song playback. The playback progress bar is used to display the playback progress of the current song. In some embodiments, in response to an operation on the playback progress bar, the playback progress of the current song is adjusted. In some embodiments, the operation on the playback progress bar includes at least one of the following: dragging the playback progress bar with a mouse, a touch drag operation on the playback progress bar, issuing a voice command for adjusting the playback progress of the current song, inputting the playback time, etc. Other operations may also be included, which are not limited in the embodiments of the present application. The playback order control is used to control the playback mode of the songs and determine the logic of playing the next song. In some embodiments, the playback mode includes at least one of the following: sequential playback, single song loop, list playback, random playback, etc. Other playback modes may also be included, which are not limited in the embodiments of the present application. The favorite control is used to add the current song to a specified playlist. In some embodiments, the specified playlist can be a playlist pre-created by relevant technicians or a playlist created by the user.

[0151] In the above manner, the lyrics window and the playback control controls are embedded in the task bar, and the lyrics window and the playback control controls are switched and displayed according to different operations, so that the user can directly obtain the lyrics and control the song playback in the task bar without opening the user interface of the target application, improving the portability of the interaction.

[0152] In some embodiments, the operations on the lyrics include at least one of the following: the pointer of the mouse hovers over the lyrics, a touch operation on the lyrics.

[0153] In some embodiments, in response to the operation that the pointer of the mouse hovers over the lyrics, the playback control controls are displayed in the task bar.

[0154] In some embodiments, the mouse hover message is monitored. The mouse hover message is used to trigger an event for displaying the playback control controls; based on the mouse hover message, in response to the operation that the pointer of the mouse hovers over the lyrics, the playback control controls are displayed in the task bar. Mouse hover means that the pointer of the mouse stays on a certain window or control, and a specified event will be triggered after a certain period of time. For example, when the pointer of the mouse stays on the lyrics window, an event for displaying the playback control controls is triggered.

[0155] In some embodiments, the touch operations on the lyrics include at least one of the following: clicking, double - clicking, long - pressing, swiping left, swiping right, etc. Other touch operations may also be included, which are not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0156] Exemplarily, by clicking on the lyrics displayed in the task bar, play control controls are displayed in the task bar.

[0157] Exemplarily, by double - clicking on the lyrics displayed in the task bar, play control controls are displayed in the task bar.

[0158] Exemplarily, by long - pressing on the lyrics displayed in the task bar, play control controls are displayed in the task bar.

[0159] In some embodiments, the operations on the lyrics further include at least one of the following: operations on shortcut keys, issuing voice commands for displaying play control controls.

[0160] In some embodiments, when the operation on the lyrics ends, the lyrics are displayed in the task bar. In some embodiments, the situations where the operation on the lyrics ends include at least one of the following: the mouse pointer leaves above the lyrics, touch operations on the lyrics, operations on shortcut keys, issuing voice commands for canceling the display of play control controls, etc. Other situations may also be included, which are not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0161] In the above - mentioned manner, it is allowed to trigger the display of play control controls in different ways, which helps the task - bar lyrics function to be compatible with different devices and operating systems.

[0162] In some embodiments, at the lyrics display position in the task bar, the lyrics are canceled from display, and play control controls are displayed.

[0163] In some embodiments, when the operation on the lyrics ends, the play control controls are canceled from display, and the lyrics are displayed.

[0164] Exemplarily, please refer to Figure 9 , which shows a schematic diagram of play control controls provided by an embodiment of the present application. When the mouse pointer hovers above the lyrics, the lyrics 91 are canceled from display, and play control controls 92 are displayed. Among them, the play control controls 92 include a previous - song control 93, a play - pause control 94, a next - song control 95, and a favorite control 96.

[0165] In the above - mentioned manner, it is realized to switch between displaying lyrics and play control controls at the lyrics display position according to different operations, directly obtain lyrics and control operations for song playback in the task bar, effectively improving the portability of interaction.

[0166] The implementation process of the information display method under the Windows operating system is introduced below.

[0167] Please refer to Figure 10 , which shows the flowchart of the information display method provided by another embodiment of the present application.

[0168] Step 100, start.

[0169] Step 101, create a lyrics window and bind controls.

[0170] When the taskbar lyrics function is clicked to open, a lyrics window will be created. A lyrics rendering control is bound in the lyrics window. After the lyrics window is created, the Windows API (Application Programming Interface) is used to find the handle of the taskbar window. For example, the Windows FindWindow("Shell_TrayWnd", nullptr) is used to find the handle of the taskbar window. Among them, Shell_TrayWnd refers to the class name of the taskbar window.

[0171] Step 102, start the timer.

[0172] The timer is used to update the position of the lyrics window regularly to adapt to the changes in the taskbar properties.

[0173] Does the handle of the taskbar window exist? If yes, execute step 105; otherwise, execute step 104.

[0174] During the operation of the timer, first, the handle of the taskbar window will be found. If the handle does not exist (when the process explore.exe where the taskbar is located crashes and has not recovered), the taskbar lyrics will not be displayed; then it will also be detected whether the lyrics window has no parent window set. If not, it will be reset to ensure that the lyrics window is displayed on the taskbar instead of directly on the desktop.

[0175] Determine the display parameters of the lyrics. The display parameters include at least one of the following: color parameter, landscape / portrait screen parameter, and size parameter. Determine the landscape / portrait screen parameter by comparing the width and height of the taskbar window. Determine the color parameter based on the relevant registry key value SystemUsesLightTheme to judge whether the system theme color (the display mode of the taskbar) is the dark mode or the light mode. Among them, the SystemUsesLightTheme key value in the registry is used to control the light mode or dark mode of the Windows system interface (non-application). Judge whether the taskbar is centered or left-aligned and whether to display widgets based on the relevant registry key values TaskbarAl and TaskbarDa. In the case of the operating system being Windows 10, obtain the positions of the displayed elements of the taskbar by referring to the child window ReBarWindow32 of the taskbar. In the case of the operating system being Windows 11, obtain the positions of the widgets and the position of the last displayed element in the taskbar icons based on the IUIAutomation automation interface. Based on this information, the lyrics window can be moved to an appropriate position to display the lyrics.

[0176] Step 104, do not display the lyrics.

[0177] Step 105, detect and set the lyrics window as a child window, and display the lyrics.

[0178] According to different versions of the operating system (such as Window10, Windows11), embed the lyrics window onto different taskbar windows or child window handles through the SetParent function. Among them, the SetParent function is a key function in the Windows API, which is used to dynamically modify the parent-child relationship of windows, associating the specified child window with a new parent window or the desktop. By changing the hierarchical structure, window embedding, interface reorganization, or behavior control can be achieved.

[0179] In some embodiments, obtain the positions and sizes of the displayed elements in the taskbar by traversing the displayed elements in the taskbar; determine the lyrics display position based on the positions and sizes of the displayed elements in the taskbar. For example, through the GetWindowRect function, traverse the displayed elements in the taskbar to obtain the position information and size information of the displayed elements in the taskbar in the screen coordinates. By passing in the window handle (HWND), this function will return the coordinate information of each element, presented in the form of a RECT structure.

[0180] Step 106, render the lyrics based on the display parameters of the lyrics and display the lyrics at the lyrics display position.

[0181] Step 107, Is the taskbar crashed and restarted? If yes, execute Step 108.

[0182] Use the function RegisterWindowMessage("TaskbarCreated") to register a window message (taskbar crash message). After the taskbar crashes and restarts, broadcast this window message.

[0183] Step 108, Reconstruct the lyrics window (new window).

[0184] Based on this window message, recreate the lyrics window and re-embed it into the new taskbar window.

[0185] Please refer to Figure 11 , which shows a flowchart of the information display method provided by another embodiment of the present application. The execution subject of each step of this method can be a terminal device. For example, this terminal device can be Figure 1 the terminal device 10 in the solution implementation environment shown, or it can be a client running in the terminal device 10.
