[0014] The concepts of "first", "second", etc. mentioned in this disclosure are used only to distinguish different devices, modules or units, and are not used to limit the order or interdependence of functions performed by these devices, modules or units.

[0015] The modifications "a" and "a plurality" referred to in this disclosure are general rather than limiting and should be understood as "one or more" unless otherwise indicated in the context.

[0016] The names of messages or information exchanged between multiple devices in the embodiments of the present disclosure are used for illustration purposes only and are not used to limit the scope of these messages or information.

[0017] FIG. 1 is a flowchart of a message sending method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The method may be performed by a message sending device, where the device may be implemented by software and / or hardware, and may be located in an electronic device, such as a mobile phone or a tablet computer. The message sending method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is applied to a scenario of sending an interactive picture. As shown in FIG. 1, the message sending method according to this embodiment may include the following steps:

[0018] S101, receiving an interactive picture sending operation on a current session page.

[0019] The current session page may be the session page currently being displayed. The send interactive picture operation may be a trigger operation for sending an interactive picture in the form of a session message in the current session page, for example, an operation for triggering a send interactive picture control displayed on the current page. The interactive picture may be, for example, an expression picture selected by the first user, and may include static pictures and dynamic pictures.

[0020] When the user intends to send an interactive picture on the current session page, the interactive picture send control can be triggered. In response, when the electronic device detects that the user triggers the interactive picture send control on the current session page, the electronic device can determine that an interactive picture send operation has been received on the current session page.

[0021] In one embodiment, receiving an interactive picture send operation on the current session page includes receiving an interactive picture send operation acting on an interactive picture send control displayed on the current session page, and further includes displaying an interactive picture send control on the current session page if the first user and / or at least one second user meets a first predetermined condition prior to receiving the interactive picture send operation on the current session page.

[0022] The interactive picture sending control may be used to instruct the electronic device to automatically select and send at least one interactive picture, and the interactive picture sending control may be displayed on the current session page when the first user or at least one second user of the current session meets a first predetermined condition. The current session may be a session displayed on the current session page, and the current session may include the first user and one or more second users, and accordingly, the current session page may be a single-session page of the first user and one second user, or a session page of the first user and a group of multiple second users. The first user may be a user who triggers the interactive picture sending control in the current session. The second user may be a user to whom the first user sends a target interactive picture in the current session to the second user, for example, a user other than the first user in the current session. The first predetermined condition may be a predetermined display condition of the interactive picture sending control, and may be set as necessary. The first user and / or at least one second user satisfying the first predefined condition includes at least one second user sending an interactive picture message and displaying the interactive picture message sent by the second user on the currently presented session page. For example, the first predefined condition can be set as: the sending time length of the last sent session message / interactive picture in the current session is less than a predefined time length threshold, or at least one interactive picture sent by the second user is displayed on the current session page at the current time, or the first user and at least one second user are online within a predefined time. The first predefined condition can also be set as a combination of any of the above conditions.

[0023] Illustratively, the electronic device may display an interactive picture send control on a current session page when a first user and / or at least one second user in the current session meets a first predetermined condition, whereby the first user may trigger the interactive picture send control when he or she wishes to send an interactive picture. In response, the electronic device may determine that an interactive picture send operation has been received when the electronic device detects that the first user triggers the interactive picture send control displayed on the current page.

[0024] In the above embodiment, the display position of the interactive picture send control on the current page can be flexibly set, for example, the interactive picture send control may be displayed in the message display area of ​​the current session page, and in this case, displaying the interactive picture send control on the current session page may include determining a target session message on the current session page that satisfies a second predetermined condition, and displaying the interactive picture send control at a target-related position of the display position of the target session message.

[0025] The target session message may be a session message displayed on the current session page and satisfying a second predetermined condition. The second predetermined condition may be set as necessary, and the target session message satisfying the second predetermined condition may include that the target session message is the last interactive picture message sent by the second user on the currently presented session page, and / or that the target session message is an interactive picture message sent by the second user and presented at a predetermined position on the currently presented session page. Accordingly, the target session message may be the last interactive picture message sent by the second user on the currently presented session page, i.e., the target session message may be the last interactive picture message displayed on the current session page at the current time and sent by the second user, and / or the interactive picture message displayed at a predetermined position on the current session page at the current time and sent by the second user. The interactive picture message may be a session message including an interactive picture. The predetermined position may be a preset position in the message display area of ​​the current session page, such as the top position, bottom position, or middle position of the message display area, and the present embodiment is not limited thereto. The target-related location may be a location related to the display location of the target session message on the current session page, for example, the target-related location may be located inside or outside the display location of the target session message, and / or may be located at a position above, below, to the left or right of the display location of the target session message, etc.

[0026] When displaying the current session page, the electronic device can periodically determine whether the first user and / or at least one second user in the current session satisfy a first predetermined condition and whether a target session message satisfying a second predetermined condition is presented on the current session page at the current time, and when the first user and / or at least one second user in the current session satisfy the first predetermined condition and a target session message satisfying the second predetermined condition is presented on the current session page at the current time, the electronic device displays the interactive picture transmission control 20 at a target-related position of the display position of the target session message. For example, when the last interactive picture message sent by the second user is displayed in the message display area of ​​the current session page, the electronic device can display the interactive picture transmission control 20 to the right of the last interactive picture message, as shown in FIG. 2.

[0027] In another embodiment, the interactive picture send control may be displayed on an interactive panel, where displaying the interactive picture send control on the current session page may include displaying an interactive panel on the current session page, where the interactive panel displays the interactive picture send control and the predetermined interactive picture.

[0028] In order to improve the user experience, in this embodiment, the interactive picture sending control is displayed only when the first user receives a target session message sent by at least one second user, thereby improving the simplicity of the current session page on the premise of satisfying the interactive picture sending needs of the first user. At this time, optionally, the first user and / or at least one second user satisfying the first predetermined condition includes at least one second user sending an interactive picture message and displaying the interactive picture message on the session page, or the first user and / or at least one second user satisfying the first predetermined condition includes the first user and at least one second user being online within a predetermined time, and at least one second user sending an interactive picture message and displaying the interactive picture message sent by the second user on the currently presented session page. That is, regardless of whether the first user is online or not and whether there is a second user online in the current session, if the interactive picture message last sent by the second user is displayed on the current session page, the interactive picture sending control can be displayed on the current session page. For example, taking into consideration whether a first user is online within a predetermined time and whether a second user who is online in the current session exists within the predetermined time, an interactive picture sending control can be displayed on the current session page only if the first user is online within the predetermined time, there is at least one second user who is online in the current session within the predetermined time, and the current session page displays the last sent interactive picture message of the second user, where the predetermined time can be flexibly set, for example, the predetermined time can be set to a length of time, such as 1 minute or 5 minutes.

[0029] S102, in response to the interactive picture sending operation, determine at least one predetermined interactive picture as a target interactive picture from a target picture set obtained by matching based on the interactive picture sending operation.

[0030] The target picture set may be a picture set obtained by matching based on an interactive picture sending operation, for example, a target picture set obtained by matching based on a target session message, in which the target picture set being obtained by matching based on an interactive picture sending operation may include being obtained by matching based on a target session message that satisfies a second predetermined condition. For example, the target picture set may be formed by selecting a predetermined interactive picture whose relevance to the target session message is equal to or greater than a predetermined relevance threshold, or the target picture set may be formed by sorting at least one predetermined interactive picture based on its relevance to the target session message and selecting the top n (n is a positive integer) predetermined interactive pictures. The target interactive picture may be an interactive picture sent in response to this interactive picture sending operation.

[0031] When an interactive picture sending operation is received, a target picture set can be obtained by matching based on the interactive picture sending operation, and at least one predetermined interactive picture in the target picture set can be selected as the target interactive picture, for example, at least one predetermined interactive picture from the target picture set can be randomly selected as the target interactive picture, an interactive picture in the target picture set that is most relevant to the target session message can be selected as the target interactive picture, or an interactive picture in the target picture set that is not currently sent by the first user in the session page and is most relevant to the target session message can be selected as the target interactive picture, etc.

[0032] S103, sending the target interactive picture to at least one second user in a form of a session message, and displaying the target interactive picture on a current session page.

[0033] In this embodiment, when a user performs an interactive picture sending operation, one interactive picture from the target picture set can be automatically selected and sent, eliminating the need for the user to view at least one specified interactive picture and then select and send the specified interactive picture that needs to be sent, thereby simplifying the operations required to send user interactive pictures and improving the user experience.

[0034] After determining the target interactive picture, the target interactive picture is sent in the current session in the form of a session message, i.e., the target interactive picture is sent to at least one second user of the current session in the form of a session message, and the target interactive picture sent by the first user can be displayed on the current session page.

[0035] The message sending method according to this embodiment includes receiving an interactive picture sending operation on a current session page, and in response to the interactive picture sending operation, determining at least one predetermined interactive picture as a target interactive picture from a target picture set obtained by matching based on the interactive picture sending operation, sending the target interactive picture to at least one second user in the form of a session message, and displaying the target interactive picture on the current session page. By adopting the above technical solution, this embodiment can enrich the interactive manner in which a user sends an interactive picture and improve the user experience.

[0036] 3 is a flowchart of another message sending method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The embodiment of the present embodiment may be combined with one or more optional embodiments of the above-mentioned embodiments. Optionally, displaying an interactive panel on the current session page includes displaying an interactive control at a target-related position of the display position of the target session message, and displaying the interactive panel on the current session page in response to a trigger operation on the interactive control.

[0037] Optionally, the method further includes, after displaying an interactive panel on the current session page, in response to a trigger operation on any one of the predetermined interactive pictures displayed on the interactive panel, designating the predetermined interactive picture that is the subject of the trigger operation as a target interactive picture.

[0038] Optionally, after sending the target interactive picture to at least one second user in the form of a session message, the method further includes performing category matching on the interactive pictures sent and / or received on the current session page, and counting the number of interactive pictures of each category sent and / or received on the current session page, respectively, starting from an interactive picture that satisfies a third predetermined condition, until no interactive picture is received again within a set time length, and displaying the counting result.

[0039] Optionally, the message sending method according to this embodiment further includes, when the counting result reaches any one of the predetermined counting values, displaying an effect corresponding to the currently reached predetermined counting value on the current session page.

[0040] As shown in FIG. 3, the message sending method according to this embodiment may include the following steps.

[0041] S201, displaying an interactive control at a target-related position of a display position of the target session message.

[0042] In this embodiment, an interactive picture transmission control may be displayed on the interactive panel.

[0043] The interactive panel may display all of the predetermined interactive pictures, or may display only the predetermined interactive pictures in the target picture set. The interactive control may be used to instruct the electronic device to display the interactive panel.

[0044] When a target session message is displayed on the current session page, an interactive control 40 can be displayed at a target-related position of the display position of the target session message. For example, when an interactive picture message sent by a second user is displayed in the message display area of ​​the current session page, the last interactive picture message sent by the second user and / or the session message presented at a predetermined position in the session message display area is the target session message, and an interactive control 40 can be displayed at a target-related position of the display position of the target session message, as shown in FIG. 4.

[0045] S202, in response to a trigger operation on the interactive control, display an interactive panel on a current session page, and execute S203 or S205, where an interactive picture transmission control and a predetermined interactive picture are displayed on the interactive panel.

[0046] As shown in Fig. 4, the electronic device displays an interactive control 40 at a target-related position of the display position of the target session message, so that the first user can trigger the interactive control 40 when he / she wants to check the interactive panel. In response, when the electronic device detects the interactive control 40 displayed in the message presentation area of ​​the current session page that triggers the first user, the electronic device can display an interactive panel, and display the interactive picture sending control 20 and a predetermined interactive picture 50 in the interactive panel, as shown in Fig. 5.

[0047] In this embodiment, the display manner of the predetermined interactive pictures displayed on the interactive panel can be set as needed, for example, the predetermined interactive pictures may be randomly arranged on the interactive panel, or the predetermined interactive pictures may be arranged on the interactive panel according to the relevance between the predetermined interactive pictures and the target session messages, where the target session messages satisfy a second predetermined condition.

[0048] 4, in addition to displaying the interactive control 40 in the message display area, this embodiment may also display an expression control 42 outside the message display area, for example, in the message input area 41, and the trigger of this expression control 42 may be used to instruct the electronic device to display an expression window, and the expression picture displayed in this expression window may or may not include the interactive picture displayed on the interactive panel, and may also include an expression picture not displayed on the interactive panel. That is, the interactive control displayed at the relevant position of the display position of the target session message mentioned in this embodiment is not the expression control 42 displayed outside the message display area, and has a different function from the expression control 42 displayed outside the message display area.

[0049] S203, receiving an interactive picture sending operation acting on an interactive picture sending control currently displayed on the session page;

[0050] S204, in response to the interactive picture sending operation, determine at least one predetermined interactive picture as a target interactive picture from the target picture set obtained by matching based on the interactive picture sending operation, and execute S206.

[0051] S205, in response to a trigger operation on any one of the predetermined interactive pictures displayed on the interactive panel, the predetermined interactive picture that is the object of the trigger operation is designated as a target interactive picture.

[0052] S206, sending the target interactive picture to at least one second user in a form of a session message, and displaying the target interactive picture on a current session page.

[0053] In this embodiment, the first user can trigger an interactive picture transmission control displayed on the interactive panel to automatically select at least one interactive picture as a target interactive picture and instruct the electronic device to transmit the target interactive picture, and can also select and transmit one interactive picture that the first user wishes to transmit from the interactive panel.

[0054] When a first user views at least one predefined interactive picture displayed on the interactive panel and intends to send one predefined interactive picture in a current session page, the first user can trigger the predefined interactive picture on the interactive panel, and in response, when the electronic device detects the one predefined interactive picture displayed on the first user-triggered interactive panel, the electronic device can take the predefined interactive picture as a target interactive picture, send the target interactive picture in the form of a session message to at least one second user of the current session, and display the target interactive picture in a message display area of ​​the current session page.

[0055] In this embodiment, after transmitting the target interactive picture, the interactive panel can be turned off or the display of the interactive panel can be kept, and this embodiment is not limited thereto.

[0056] In one embodiment, the method further includes maintaining a display of the interactive panel after sending the target interactive picture to at least one second user in the form of a session message, and updating a predetermined interactive picture displayed on the interactive panel in response to a picture update operation.

[0057] In the above embodiment, the electronic device can update a predetermined interactive picture displayed on the interactive panel based on a picture update operation of the first user.

[0058] The electronic device can hold the display of the interactive panel after sending the target interactive picture until it receives a trigger operation to turn off the interactive panel, for example, a trigger operation on an off control of the interactive panel and / or a trigger operation acting on a blank area of ​​the current session page (for example, a click operation). Thereby, when the interactive panel is in a display state, the first user can perform a picture update operation when he or she wishes to update a predetermined interactive picture displayed on the interactive panel. In response, when the electronic device detects the picture update operation of the first user, the electronic device can update the predetermined interactive picture displayed on the interactive panel, for example, by randomly selecting a certain number of predetermined interactive pictures not displayed on the interactive panel, or by selecting a certain number of predetermined interactive pictures not displayed on the interactive panel in order of relevance to the target session message, and updating the predetermined interactive picture displayed on the interactive panel as the currently selected predetermined interactive picture.

[0059] Optionally, updating the predefined interactive picture displayed on the interactive panel in response to the picture update operation includes at least one of: updating the current predefined interactive picture displayed on the interactive panel as a first predefined interactive picture in response to an interactive picture send operation; updating the current predefined interactive picture displayed on the interactive panel as a second predefined interactive picture in response to a trigger operation on the picture update control; and updating the current predefined interactive picture displayed on the interactive panel as a third predefined interactive picture matching the target character input by the first user in response to a character input operation.

[0060] The first predefined interactive picture / second predefined interactive picture may be predefined interactive pictures determined according to the same or different decision rules, for example, predefined interactive pictures determined randomly or according to relevance to the target session message. The third predefined interactive picture may be predefined interactive picture determined according to the degree of matching between the character input by the first user (i.e., the target character).

[0061] In one embodiment, the electronic device can update the predefined interactive picture displayed on the interactive panel based on the first user's interactive picture sending operation. For example, the first user can trigger an interactive picture sending control displayed on the interactive panel when he / she wants to send an interactive picture, and in response, when the electronic device detects that the first user triggers the interactive picture sending control, the electronic device can determine at least one predefined interactive picture from the target picture set as a target interactive picture, send the target interactive picture to at least one second user in the form of a session message, display the target interactive picture on the current session page, and update the current predefined interactive picture displayed on the interactive panel as the first predefined interactive picture.

[0062] In another embodiment, the electronic device can update a predefined interactive picture displayed on the interactive panel based on a trigger operation of a picture update control by a first user. For example, the first user can trigger a picture update control in the interactive panel when the first user wants to update a predefined interactive picture displayed on the interactive panel, and in response, the electronic device can update the current predefined interactive picture displayed on the interactive panel as a second predefined interactive picture when detecting that the first user triggers the picture update control displayed on the interactive panel.

[0063] In this embodiment, the picture update control may be fixedly displayed on the interactive panel or may be displayed when the target session message has changed and the interactive panel is in a display state, and optionally further includes, in response to a trigger operation on the picture update control, displaying the picture update control on the interactive panel when the interactive panel is displayed before updating a current predetermined interactive picture displayed on the interactive panel with a second predetermined interactive picture, or displaying the picture update control on the interactive panel when the target session message has changed and the interactive panel is in a display state.

[0064] In yet another embodiment, the electronic device can update a predefined interactive picture displayed on the interactive panel based on the character input operation of the first user. For example, the first user can input a character into the message input area to send a session message including the character and / or perform an interactive picture search, and in response, the electronic device inputs a character (i.e., a target character) into the message input area based on the character input operation of the first user, obtains a third predefined interactive picture that matches the target character, for example, obtains a predefined interactive picture whose included characters match the target character (e.g., a predefined interactive picture including the target character or a predefined interactive picture including characters having the same or similar meaning as the target character), and / or obtains a predefined interactive picture whose expressed emotion is the same or similar to the emotion expressed by the target character, sets it as the third predefined interactive picture, and updates the current predefined interactive picture displayed on the interactive panel with the third predefined interactive picture.

[0065] S207, performing category matching for the interactive pictures sent and / or received in the current session page.

[0066] The interactive pictures sent and / or received on the current session page can be classified according to predetermined set classification rules, for example, the interactive pictures sent and / or received on the current session page can be classified according to the emotions expressed in the interactive pictures (e.g., joy, sadness, admiration, sarcasm, etc.).

[0067] S208: counting the number of interactive pictures of each category transmitted and / or received on the current session page, respectively, starting from the interactive picture that satisfies the third predetermined condition, until no interactive picture is received again within the set time length, and displaying the counting result.

[0068] The interactive picture that satisfies the third predetermined condition may be an interactive picture transmitted based on the first user's interactive picture transmission operation or an operation on a predetermined interactive picture displayed on the interactive panel when not counting, or may be an interactive picture included in a target session message when a user triggers an interactive picture transmission operation or instructs an electronic device to display an interactive panel when not counting, and this embodiment does not limit this. The set time length may be preset by a developer, for example, the set time length may be set to a time length such as 5 s or 10 s.

[0069] The counting starts with an interactive picture that satisfies a third specified condition in the current session, and counts each interactive picture of each category transmitted and / or received on the current session page in order of earliest transmission time, and displays the counting results on the current session page. During the counting process, it is periodically determined whether an interactive picture transmitted in the form of a session message has been retransmitted and / or rereceived within a specified time length after the most recent interactive picture displayed on the current session page, and if an interactive picture transmitted in the form of a session message has been retransmitted and / or rereceived, the retransmitted and / or rereceived interactive picture is regarded as the most recent interactive picture, and if the interactive picture transmitted in the form of a session message is not retransmitted and / or received again, the counting is stopped.

[0070] S209, when the counting result reaches any one of the predetermined counting values, an effect corresponding to the currently reached predetermined counting value is displayed on the current session page.

[0071] In this embodiment, a plurality of predetermined count values ​​are preset, and when the count result of each category reaches one of the predetermined count values ​​during the counting process, an effect corresponding to the currently reached predetermined count value is displayed on the current session page, thereby enriching the expression format of the interactive picture. Here, the plurality of predetermined count values ​​can be set as required, for example, the predetermined count value may be set to 10, 20, 30, or 40, and the effects displayed when the count results of different categories reach the same predetermined count value may be the same or different, and the effect may be a full-screen effect, for example, an effect corresponding to the currently reached predetermined count value may be displayed on the upper layer of the plurality of session messages presented on the current session page.

[0072] In the message sending method according to this embodiment, an interactive picture sending control and a specified interactive picture are displayed on an interactive panel, the interactive pictures sent and / or received on the current session page are counted according to categories, and the counting result is displayed. When the counting result reaches one of the specified count values, an effect corresponding to the specified count value is displayed on the current session page, which can meet the different interactive picture sending needs of users, enrich the expression form of the interactive picture, and improve the user experience.

[0073] 6 is a structural block diagram of a message sending device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The device may be implemented by software and / or hardware, may be disposed in an electronic device, may be disposed in a mobile phone or a tablet computer, and may send an interactive picture in the form of a session message by executing the message sending method. As shown in FIG. 6, the message sending device according to this embodiment may include an operation receiving module 601, a picture selecting module 602, and a picture sending module 603.

[0074] The operation receiving module 601 is configured to receive an interactive picture sending operation in a current session page; The picture selection module 602 is configured to, in response to the interactive picture sending operation, determine at least one predetermined interactive picture as a target interactive picture from the target picture set obtained by matching based on the interactive picture sending operation; The picture sending module 603 is configured to send the target interactive picture to at least one second user in a form of a session message, and display the target interactive picture on the current session page.

[0075] In the message sending device according to this embodiment, the operation receiving module 601 receives an interactive picture sending operation on a current session page, the picture selecting module 602 responds to the interactive picture sending operation by determining at least one predetermined interactive picture as a target interactive picture from a target picture set obtained by matching based on the interactive picture sending operation, and the picture sending module 603 sends the target interactive picture to at least one second user in the form of a session message, and displays the target interactive picture on the current session page.
