Technical Field

[0002] The present application belongs to the field of electronic technology, and specifically relates to a file editing method, terminal, electronic device and storage medium. Background Art

[0003] Currently, users can edit files through electronic devices. In related technologies, electronic devices can edit files through file applications. Typically, in a file application, such as an email application, after the electronic device obtains a file based on user input, it can edit the file using the editing function of the email application, thereby obtaining the edited file.

[0004] However, since the electronic device may need to edit the file across multiple applications, the electronic device needs to edit the file through different file applications to obtain the file required by the user, which results in poor editing efficiency.

[0005] For example, suppose a user needs to annotate and print the text in a file. If application 1 includes an annotation function and application 2 includes a print function, the electronic device needs to save the annotated text after annotating the text in application 1, then exit application 1, and then input the annotated text into application 2 to execute the print function, resulting in the electronic device editing file process being cumbersome and time-consuming.

[0006] Summary of the Invention

[0007] The purpose of the embodiments of the present application is to provide a file editing method, terminal, electronic device and storage medium, which can effectively improve the efficiency of file editing and shorten the time users spend editing files.

[0038] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0039] The terms "first," "second," and the like in the specification and claims of this application are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not used to describe a specific order or precedence. It should be understood that the terms used in this manner are interchangeable where appropriate, so that the embodiments of this application can be implemented in an order other than that illustrated or described herein, and that the objects distinguished by "first," "second," and the like are generally of the same type, and do not limit the number of objects; for example, the first object can be one or more. In addition, the term "and / or" in the specification and claims represents at least one of the connected objects, and the character " / " generally indicates that the objects associated with each other are in an "or" relationship.

[0040] The terms "at least one (item)", "at least one of" and the like in the specification and claims of this application refer to any one, any two or a combination of more than two of the objects contained therein. For example, at least one (item) of a, b, and c can be represented by: "a", "b", "c", "a and b", "a and c", "b and c" and "a, b and c", where a, b, and c can be single or multiple. The multiple is at least two. Similarly, "at least two (items)" refers to two or more, and its meaning is similar to that of "at least one (item)". The logo in this application is text, symbol, image, etc. used to indicate information, and controls or other containers can be used as carriers for displaying information, including but not limited to text logos, symbol logos, and image logos.

[0041] The following describes in detail the file editing method, device, electronic device, and storage medium provided by the embodiments of the present application through specific embodiments and their application scenarios in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0042] The file editing method, terminal, electronic device and storage medium provided in this application can be specifically applied in text editing scenarios, image editing scenarios and video editing scenarios.

[0043] With the development of electronic devices, their functions are also increasing. For example, electronic devices can edit files such as text, images, and videos to obtain edited files. In related technologies, after a file application in an electronic device obtains a file, the electronic device can edit the file based on user needs using the editing functions included in the file application to obtain the edited file.

[0044] For example, the instant text application has a printing function, the email application has a text editing function, and the atomic note has an annotation function. When the user needs to annotate the text and print the edited text, the electronic device needs to edit the text through the email application, then run the atomic note application to annotate the edited text, and then run the instant text application to print the annotated text. However, due to the high independence between the various office software in the electronic device, and the emphasis of the editing functions between the various office software is different. For example, if the user needs to enter text in an email and wants to annotate the text and then print it, the electronic device needs to enter the text in the electronic device email into the atomic note, then add annotations, and after adding annotations, enter the annotated text into the instant text to print the edited text. The entire editing process is cumbersome and time-consuming. Moreover, if a rich editing function is added in different office software, it will not only increase the workload of developers, but may also lead to an increase in the size of the software that comes with the electronic device.

[0045] In the file editing method, terminal, electronic device and storage medium provided by the present application, since the first editing component integrates the editing functions indicated by the function icons of multiple editing functions of at least two applications, for example, the first editing component also has the printing function icon of the instant text application, the text editing function icon of the email application and the adding annotation function icon of the atomic note, the user can mark the text to be edited by operating the text editing function icon on the first editing component, and then add annotations by operating the adding annotation function icon on the first editing component, and finally operate the printing function icon on the first editing component to realize the printing of the text after editing with the annotations. The user can complete the three operations of editing, adding annotations and printing the text through the first editing component without opening multiple programs, avoiding jumping between multiple different program interfaces. Since the first editing component has editing function icons of different programs, the editing function of the first editing component is more powerful than the editing function of any single application. Editing the first file through the first editing component with more powerful editing function can avoid the user opening the same file through multiple applications to perform tedious program switching and file editing operations, thereby effectively improving the efficiency of file editing and shortening the time users spend editing files.

[0046] The execution subject of the file editing method provided in the embodiment of the present application may be a terminal, which may be an electronic device or a functional module in an electronic device.

[0066] Exemplarily, when the first editing component is a text editing component, the multiple editing function icons contained in the first editing component may include at least one of the following: an insert picture icon, an update font color icon, an add annotation icon, etc. The insert picture icon and the update font color icon can be application function icons in the gallery application, and the add annotation icon can be an application function icon in the instant text application.

[0067] It should be noted that the above-mentioned multiple editing function icons correspond to application functions in different application programs.

[0068] Exemplarily, the first editing component may be an editing component in a rich text format.

[0069] It should be noted that Rich Text Format (RTF), also known as Rich Text Format, is a text and graphic document format that is easily viewable on various devices and systems. Most word processing software can read and save RTF documents.

[0070] Exemplarily, when the first editing component is an image editing component, the multiple editing function icons contained in the first editing component may include at least one of the following: a capture image icon, an add filter icon, a beauty icon, a picture cropping icon, and a picture beautification icon, etc. The capture image icon is an application function icon in the camera application, and the add filter icon is an application function icon in the gallery application.

[0071] Exemplarily, when the first editing component is a video editing component, the multiple editing function icons contained in the first editing component may include at least one of the following: an insert image icon, an insert text icon, an insert subtitle icon, a delete video segment icon, and an add video segment icon, etc. The insert image icon, delete video segment icon, add video segment icon, and insert subtitle icon can be application function icons in video editing applications, and the insert text icon can be an application function icon in a gallery application.

[0073] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, after the electronic device displays the first editing component on the desktop, the electronic device may update the editing function in the first editing component by inputting the first editing component and at least one application icon.

[0074] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, the electronic device may directly display multiple editing function icons in any blank position in the first editing component, and then the electronic device may directly receive the user's first input on the editing function icon.

[0075] In this way, when the user inputs the editing function icon, the user does not need to perform tedious query operations, which saves the user's time in searching for the editing function icon.

[0076] For example, the electronic device may display a plurality of editing function icons in the form of a pop-up window according to the user's input, and then the electronic device may directly receive the user's first input on the target editing function icon.

[0077] In this way, the electronic device displays multiple editing function icons in the form of pop-up windows, which saves the display area on the desktop and makes the desktop of the electronic device more tidy.

[0078] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, the icon styles of the above-mentioned multiple editing function icons may be consistent with or different from the component style of the first editing component.

[0079] Step 202: In response to the first input, the electronic device performs a file editing process indicated by the editing function icon selected by the first input on the first file.

[0080] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, the first file may be a local file or a file in a cloud server.

[0081] Illustratively, the first file may include at least one of the following: a text file, an image file, and a video file.

[0082] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, the first file editing component further includes a sharing icon; after the electronic device edits the first file, the electronic device can directly share the edited first file to other contacts through the sharing icon.

[0083] In the file editing method provided in the embodiment of the present application, the electronic device can display a first editing component, which includes at least two editing function icons of at least two applications. The electronic device can perform file editing processing indicated by the editing function icon selected by the first input on the first file based on the user's first input to an editing function icon on the first editing component. In this solution, since the first editing component can integrate function icons of multiple file editing functions in multiple applications, when the electronic device edits the first file, the electronic device can edit the first file according to the editing functions indicated by the function icons of the multiple editing functions integrated in the first editing component. In this way, when the electronic device edits the first file, it does not need to edit the file through multiple file applications to obtain a file that meets the user's needs. In this way, the efficiency of electronic devices in editing files is improved.

[0084] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, the file editing method provided in the embodiments of the present application further includes the following steps 301 and 302.

[0085] Step 301: The electronic device receives a second input from a user.

[0086] In some embodiments of the present application, the second input is used to trigger adding or reducing an editing function icon of at least one application in the first editing component.

[0087] In some embodiments of the present application, the second input is the user's input to the first editing component on the desktop.

[0088] Exemplarily, the above-mentioned second input includes but is not limited to: the user's touch input to the first editing component through a touch device such as a finger or a stylus, or a specific gesture input by the user, or other feasible input, which can be determined according to actual use needs and is not limited in the embodiment of the present application. The specific gesture in the embodiment of the present application can be any one of a single-click gesture, a sliding gesture, a drag gesture, a pressure recognition gesture, a long press gesture, an area change gesture, a double-press gesture, and a double-click gesture; the click input in the embodiment of the present application can be a single-click input, a double-click input, or any number of click inputs, etc., and can also be a long press input or a short press input. For example, the above-mentioned first input can be: the user's area change gesture input to the first editing component.

[0089] Step 302: The electronic device updates the editing function icon on the first editing component in response to the second input.

[0090] In some embodiments of the present application, the electronic device can add or delete an editing function icon on the first editing component according to the second input.

[0091] It can be understood that the editing function icon on the electronic device that adds or deletes the first editing component can be used to add or delete the editing function in the first editing component of the electronic device.

[0092] In some embodiments of the present application, the electronic device can update the editing function icon on the first editing component and then update the editing function in the first editing component, thereby improving the editing efficiency of the electronic device in updating the editing function in the first editing component.

[0093] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, "updating the editing function icon on the first editing component" in the above step 302 can be specifically implemented through the following step 302a or step 302b or step 302c.

[0094] Step 302a: When the second input is used to trigger the addition of an editing function icon of the first application, the electronic device adds at least one editing function icon of the first application to the first editing component.

[0095] In some embodiments of the present application, the at least one editing function icon is an editing function icon that was not present in the first editing component before the editing function icon in the first editing component is updated.

[0096] Exemplarily, the second input may be a user's gesture input of changing the area of ​​the first editing component.

[0097] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, the first application may be any application with an editing function on the desktop of the electronic device.

[0098] Exemplarily, the number of the first application programs may be one or more.

[0099] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, after the electronic device adds at least one editing function icon of the first application to the first editing component, the electronic device may display the at least one editing function icon in a preset icon display area in the first editing component.

[0100] Exemplarily, the preset icon display area may be any blank area in the first editing component.

[0101] In an example where the number of first applications is one, as shown in Figure 2A, a photo application icon, a camera application icon, a communication application icon, a note application icon, an email application icon and a first editing component 10 are displayed on the desktop of the electronic device. The user can long press the first editing component 10 so that the electronic device can display a drag indicator in the lower left corner of the first editing component 10, which is represented by a double arrow in Figure 2A. At this time, the user can drag the drag indicator, as shown in Figure 2B, so that the electronic device can cover the note application icon with the first editing component 10, as shown in Figure 2C. Then, the electronic device can add the undo text editing function in the note application indicated by the note icon to the first editing component 10, and display the add annotation editing function editing icon 12 in the blank area 11 of the first editing component 10.

[0102] In an example where there are multiple first applications, in combination with Figure 2A, as shown in Figure 3A, the user can drag the drag identifier to enable the electronic device to cover the note application icon and the email application icon with the first editing component 10, as shown in Figure 3B, and then the electronic device can add the add annotation editing function in the note application indicated by the note icon and the Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) editing function in the email application indicated by the email icon to the first editing component 10, and display the add annotation editing icon 12 and the HTML editing function icon 13 in the blank area 11 of the first editing component 10.

[0103] Exemplarily, in combination with Figure 2A, as shown in Figure 4, the user can drag input on the drag indicator so that the electronic device can cover the camera application icon and the photo application icon with the first editing component 10, and then the electronic device can add the shooting function in the camera application indicated by the camera icon and the filter editing function in the photo application indicated by the photo icon to the first editing component 10, and display the shooting icon 14 and the filter editing icon 15 in the blank area 11 of the first editing component 10.

[0104] Step 302b: When the second input is used to trigger the addition of editing function icons of the first application and the second application, the electronic device adds M editing function icons of the first application and N editing function icons of the second application to the first editing component.

[0105] In an embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned M editing function icons and N editing function icons are all editing function icons that were not in the first editing component before the editing function icons in the first editing component were updated. The M editing function icons and the N editing function icons are not the same, and M and N are positive integers.

[0106] It should be noted that, when the application types of the first application and the second application are the same, please refer to the specific description in the above step 302a for details. To avoid repetition, it will not be repeated here.

[0107] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, the application type of the first application is different from the application type of the second application.

[0108] Exemplarily, in combination with Figure 2A, as shown in Figure 5, the user can drag input on the drag identifier so that the electronic device can cover the camera application icon and the note application icon with the first editing component 10, and then the electronic device can add the shooting function in the camera application indicated by the camera icon and the adding annotation editing function in the note application indicated by the note icon to the first editing component 10, and add the shooting icon 14 and the undo text editing icon 12 in the blank area 11 of the first editing component 10.

[0109] Step 302c: When the second input is used to trigger the reduction of editing function icons in the first editing component, the electronic device cancels the display of at least one editing function icon selected by the second input in the first editing component, and deletes the file editing function indicated by at least one editing function icon selected by the second input from the file editing functions of the first editing component.

[0110] In an embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned step 302c can also be applied in the following scenario: when the user is setting the editing function of the component, the user drags the first editing component to cover two icons, such as the first application icon and the second application icon, and the user suddenly does not want to add the function icon of the application indicated by the second application icon. Then the user can slide on the first editing component or slide with two fingers toward each other to control the shrinking of the first editing component, so that the first editing component only covers the first application icon but not the second application icon. In the first editing component, the editing function icons contained in the application indicated by the second application icon can be reduced.

[0111] Exemplarily, the second input may be a preset trajectory input of the editing function icon in the first editing component.

[0112] For example, as shown in FIG6A , the editing icon display area 11 in the first editing component displays an add annotation editing icon 12, a shooting icon 14, a filter editing icon 15 and an HTML editing function icon 13. At this time, the user can slide down the shooting icon 14, as shown in FIG6B , so that the electronic device can delete the shooting icon 14 from the first editing component, cancel the display of the shooting icon 14, and delete the shooting function from the first editing component, and display the undo text editing icon 12, the filter editing icon 15 and the HTML editing function icon 13 in the editing icon display area 11.

[0113] In some embodiments of the present application, the electronic device can directly edit the first editing component on the desktop based on the user's second input, such as adding an editing icon or deleting an editing icon, thereby improving the efficiency of the electronic device in editing the first editing component.

[0114] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, the above step 301 may be specifically performed through the following step 301a, and the above step 302 may be specifically performed through the following step 302d and step 302e or step 302f or step 302g.

[0115] Step 301a: The electronic device receives a second input of the user dragging the first editing component on the desktop.

[0116] In some embodiments of the present application, the desktop includes at least one application icon.

[0117] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, the second input may be used to update the display size or position of the first editing component on the desktop.

[0118] Step 302d: The electronic device updates the display position of the first editing component.

[0119] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, updating the display position of the first editing component may be updating the display size of the first editing component on the desktop or changing the position of the first editing component on the desktop.

[0120] Step 302e: If the first editing component does not cover the application icon before the display position is updated, and the first editing component covers the first application icon after the display position is updated, the electronic device adds at least one file editing function icon of the first application indicated by the first application icon to the first editing component.

[0121] It should be noted that the details can be found in FIG3 above, and will not be described here in detail to avoid repetition.

[0122] Step 302f: When the first editing component does not cover the application icon before the display position is updated, and the first editing component covers the first application icon and the second application icon after the display position is updated, the electronic device adds at least one file editing function icon of the first application indicated by the first application icon and at least one file editing function icon of the second application indicated by the second application icon to the first editing component.

[0123] Exemplarily, the electronic device can add the print icon of the print application function in the application indicated by the print now application icon to the first editing component, and add the add filter icon of the add filter application function in the application indicated by the gallery application icon to the first editing component in an overlay manner, so that the print icon and the add filter icon can be displayed in the updated first editing component.

[0124] It should be noted that the details can be found in FIG4 above, and will not be described here in detail to avoid repetition.

[0125] For example, taking the first interface as the desktop, the electronic device can move the first file editing component to different pages of the desktop, so that the first file editing component can add at least one file editing function in the file editing application included in the different pages.

[0126] For example, assuming that the desktop contains 5 pages, the user can input the first file editing component in the first page so that the electronic device can overwrite the file editing application contained in the first page, so that the electronic device can add at least one file editing function in the first file editing component; then, the user can move the first file editing component to the second page and input the first file editing component so that the electronic device can overwrite the file editing application contained in the second page, so that the electronic device can add at least one file editing function in the first file editing component again; and so on, until at least one file editing function corresponding to the file editing applications contained in the 5 pages is added to the first file editing component.

[0127] For example, as shown in FIG7A , a note application icon and a first editing component 10 are displayed on a first desktop page 17 of an electronic device. At this time, the user can perform a drag input on the first editing component 10, so that the electronic device can cover the note application icon with the first editing component 10, and add the add annotation editing icon 12 in the note application indicated by the note application icon to the first editing component 10. Then, as shown in FIG7B , the user can move the updated first editing component 10 to a second desktop page 18 of the electronic device, which contains a mail application icon. At this time, the user can perform a drag input on the updated first editing component 10 again, so that the electronic device can cover the mail application icon with the first editing component 10, and add the HTML icon 13 in the mail application indicated by the mail application icon to the first editing component 10.

[0128] It can be understood that for each page in the electronic device, the electronic device can add an editing function icon to the first editing component in each page through the same operation as above.

[0129] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, taking the type of file editing component as a text editing type as an example, when the electronic device covers the application icon in the desktop through the first file editing component, the electronic device can determine whether the application indicated by the application icon is a text application based on the application information of the multiple application icons covered.

[0130] Exemplarily, the above application information may include at least one of the following: an application icon, an application name, and an application identifier, where the application identifier may be used to indicate an application type of the application program.

[0131] Exemplarily, the electronic device may obtain the above application information through an installation package corresponding to the application program.

[0132] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, after the electronic device determines the text application indicated by the text application icon from the multiple covered application icons, the electronic device can determine the text editing function in the text application based on the function identifier in the text application, and then add the text editing function to the first file editing component.

[0133] It should be noted that when the type of the first file editing component is an image type, the process of adding an image editing function to the electronic device can be found in the above embodiment in detail, and will not be described again here to avoid repetition.

[0134] Step 302g: When the first editing component covers the first application icon and the second application icon before the display position is updated, and the first editing component covers the first application icon after the display position is updated, the electronic device cancels the display of all editing function icons of the second application icon added in the first editing component, and deletes the file editing functions indicated by all editing function icons of the added second application icon from the file editing functions of the first editing component.

[0135] Exemplarily, in combination with Figure 2A, as shown in Figure 8A, the user can drag input on the drag identifier so that the electronic device can cover the note application icon 19 and the email application icon 20 with the first editing component 10, as shown in Figure 8B. At this time, the user can continue to drag input on the first editing component 10 so that the electronic device can cover only the note application icon 19 with the first editing component 10, and stop dragging input on the first editing component 10, as shown in Figure 8C. Then, the electronic device can add the add annotation editing function icon 12 in the note application indicated by the note icon to the first editing component 10, and display the undo text editing icon 12 in the blank area 11 of the first editing component 10.

[0136] In an embodiment of the present application, the electronic device can add an editing function icon in the first editing component by moving the first editing component, and then add the corresponding editing function, thereby improving the convenience of the electronic device in adding editing functions to the first editing component.

[0137] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, the above step 301 may be specifically implemented through the following step 301b; and the above step 302 may be specifically implemented through the following step 302h.

[0138] Step 301b: The electronic device receives a second input from the user dragging the first application icon on the desktop to the first editing component.

[0139] In an embodiment of the present application, the desktop includes at least one application icon.

[0140] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, the first application icon may be one or more.

[0141] Step 302h: In response to the second input, the electronic device adds at least one file editing function icon of the first application program indicated by the first application icon to the first editing component.

[0142] Exemplarily, as shown in FIG9A , a photo application icon, a camera application icon, a communication application icon, a note application icon, an email application icon and a first editing component 10 are displayed on the desktop of the electronic device, and the user can drag the note application icon until it is dragged to the first editing component 10; as shown in FIG9B , the electronic device can add the undo text editing function in the note application indicated by the note icon to the first editing component 10, and display the add annotation editing icon 12 in the blank area 11 of the first editing component 10.

[0143] In an embodiment of the present application, the electronic device can add the editing function icon in the first editing component by moving the application icon in the desktop to the first editing component, and can then intuitively display the process of adding the corresponding editing function to the user.

[0144] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, after the above step 301, the file editing method provided by the embodiment of the present application further includes the following step 401 or step 402 or step 403.

[0145] Step 401: Upon receiving the third input from the user on the first editing component, the electronic device updates the first editing component to a component identifier and displays the component identifier in an edge area of ​​the display screen.

[0146] In the embodiment of the present application, the edge area is an area whose distance from the edge of the display screen is less than or equal to a distance threshold.

[0147] For example, the distance threshold may be 1 cm or 0.5 cm. Specifically, it may be determined based on the display area of ​​the display screen. For example, the distance threshold for a large display screen may be greater than the distance threshold for a small display screen. This is not limited in the present embodiment.

[0148] In some embodiments of the present application, the third input is used to trigger the electronic device to update the display mode of the first editing component, that is, to update from the component display mode to the logo display mode.

[0149] Exemplarily, the third input includes but is not limited to: the user's touch input to the first editing component through a touch device such as a finger or a stylus, or a specific gesture input by the user, or other feasible input, which can be determined according to actual use requirements and is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

For example, the first input mentioned above can be: the user's long press input to the first editing component.

[0150] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, the first editing component may include a first control, and the third input may be the user's input to the first control, so that the electronic device can update the first editing component to a component identifier and display the component identifier in the edge area of ​​the display screen.

[0151] Exemplarily, the electronic device may display the first control after updating the editing function icon in the first editing component.

[0152] Step 402: If the user does not operate the first editing component for a period of time, the electronic device updates the first editing component to a component identifier and displays the component identifier in an edge area of ​​the display screen.

[0153] Optionally, the duration corresponding to the above period of time may be preset by the electronic device; or set by the user.

[0154] For example, the above period of time may be 1S, 2S, or 3S, which may be determined based on actual usage and is not limited in the present embodiment.

[0155] Step 403: When switching from the first interface to the second interface, the electronic device displays a component identifier in an edge area of ​​the display screen.

[0156] In the embodiment of the present application, the first interface is a program interface of an application that does not have a file editing function, and the second interface is a program interface of an application that has a file editing function;

[0157] In the embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned component identifier is used to indicate the first editing component.

[0158] It can be understood that after the electronic device displays the component logo in the edge area of ​​the display screen, the component logo can be displayed on the top layer of the screen of the electronic device all the time.

[0159] In the embodiment of the present application, the electronic device can use the component identifier to indicate the first editing component, thereby improving the flexibility of the electronic device in displaying the first editing component.

[0160] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, before "the electronic device receives the user's first input to an editing function icon on the first editing component" in the above step 201, the file editing method provided by the embodiment of the present application also includes the following steps 501 and 502.

[0161] Step 501: When displaying a second editing component and a third editing component, the electronic device receives a fourth input of the user on the second editing component and the third editing component.

[0162] In an embodiment of the present application, the second editing component includes at least two editing function icons of at least two first-category editing applications, and the third editing component includes at least two editing function icons of at least two second-category editing applications.

[0163] It should be noted that the process of the electronic device acquiring the second file editing component and the third file editing component can be found in the above embodiment in detail, and will not be described again here to avoid repetition.

[0164] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the electronic device may display a second file editing component and a third file editing component in the first interface.

[0165] It can be understood that the second file editing component and the third file editing component correspond to different component types.

[0166] Step 502: In response to the fourth input, the electronic device merges the editing function icons in the second editing component and the third editing component to generate a first editing component.

[0167] In an embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned first editing component includes at least two editing function icons of at least two first-category editing applications and at least two editing function icons of at least two second-category editing applications; the program types of the first-category editing application and the second-category editing application are any two of the following types: text editing type, image editing type, video editing type, and audio editing type.

[0168] Exemplarily, the fourth input includes but is not limited to: the user's touch input to the second editing component and the third editing component through a touch device such as a finger or a stylus, or a specific gesture input by the user, or other feasible input, which can be determined according to actual use requirements and is not limited in the embodiment of the present application. The specific gesture in the embodiment of the present application can be any one of a single-click gesture, a sliding gesture, a drag gesture, a pressure recognition gesture, a long press gesture, an area change gesture, a double-press gesture, and a double-click gesture; the click input in the embodiment of the present application can be a single-click input, a double-click input, or any number of click inputs, etc., and can also be a long press input or a short press input. For example, the first input mentioned above can be: the user's pinch input to the second editing component and the third editing component.

[0169] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, the electronic device may integrate the editing icons in the second editing component and the third editing component and the editing functions indicated by the editing icons based on the above-mentioned fourth input. Then, the electronic device may add the combined editing icons to the atomic component in a union manner based on the atomic component corresponding to the editing component in the system to generate a first editing component. In this way, the generated first editing component may include the editing functions in the second editing component and the editing functions in the third editing component.

[0170] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, the electronic device may integrate the editing icons and the editing functions indicated by the editing icons in the second editing component and the third editing component based on the above-mentioned fourth input, and then, the electronic device may add the integrated editing icons and the editing functions indicated by the editing icons to the second editing component to generate the first editing component.

[0171] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, the electronic device may integrate the editing icons and the editing functions indicated by the editing icons in the second editing component and the third editing component based on the above-mentioned fourth input, and then, the electronic device may add the integrated editing icons and the editing functions indicated by the editing icons to the third editing component to generate the first editing component.

[0172] In an embodiment of the present application, the electronic device can expand the first editing component into a multifunctional editing component in the above manner. For example, in one editing component, both text and images can be edited, thereby improving the editing flexibility and efficiency of the first file editing component.

[0173] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, before "the electronic device receives the user's first input of an editing function icon on the first editing component" in the above step 201, the file editing method provided by the embodiment of the present application also includes the following steps 601 to 603.

[0174] Step 601: The electronic device displays an editing interface and component identification of a first file.

[0175] In some embodiments of the present application, the above-mentioned editing interface includes an input box, and the component identifier is used to indicate the first editing component.

[0176] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, the display form of the above-mentioned component identification may include at least one of the following: an icon identification, a digital identification, a text identification or a special symbol identification.

[0177] It should be noted that the above-mentioned editing interface is the editing interface of the application program where the first file is located.

[0178] Exemplarily, if the user inputs text through a mailbox application in an electronic device, the first file is the text input by the user, and the editing interface is the text editing interface in the mailbox application.

[0179] It can be understood that since the component identification is always displayed on the top layer of the screen, when the electronic device runs the interface of any application, the above component identification can always be displayed on the screen of the electronic device.

[0180] Step 602: The electronic device receives a fifth input from the user regarding the component identifier and the input box.

[0181] Exemplarily, the fifth input mentioned above includes but is not limited to: the user's touch input of the component identifier and input box through a touch device such as a finger or a stylus, or a specific gesture input by the user, or other feasible input, which can be determined according to actual use requirements and is not limited in the embodiment of the present application. The specific gesture in the embodiment of the present application can be any one of a single-click gesture, a sliding gesture, a drag gesture, a pressure recognition gesture, a long press gesture, an area change gesture, a double-press gesture, and a double-click gesture; the click input in the embodiment of the present application can be a single-click input, a double-click input, or any number of click inputs, etc., and can also be a long press input or a short press input. For example, the first input mentioned above can be: the user's pinch input of the component identifier and input box.

[0182] Step 603: The electronic device updates the display of the editing interface in response to the fifth input, and cancels the display of the component identifier.

[0183] In an embodiment of the present application, the area corresponding to the input box in the updated editing interface includes a first editing component.

[0184] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, the electronic device can drag the component identifier to the input box based on the user's input, so that the electronic device can add the editing function in the first editing component in the input method editing area, and then, the electronic device can edit the first file through the added file editing function.

[0185] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, after the electronic device drags the component identifier into the input method box, the electronic device can overlay the input method editing area with the editor corresponding to the first editing component, so that the electronic device can edit the first file on the editor corresponding to the first editing component.

[0186] In an embodiment of the present application, the electronic device can drag the component identifier to the input box, so that the electronic device can update the editing interface and edit the first file according to the updated editing interface, thereby improving the convenience of file editing on the electronic device.

[0187] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, the above step 603 can be specifically implemented through the following step 603a or step 603b.

[0188] Step 603a: The electronic device displays the editing function icon on the first editing component in the area corresponding to the input box.

[0189] Exemplarily, as shown in FIG10A , the electronic device displays an email editing interface 21 and superimposes a component logo 22 on the email editing interface 21. The user can drag and input the component logo 22 until it is dragged to the input box 23 in the email editing interface 21; as shown in FIG10B , the electronic device can display the HTML editing function icon 13 in the editing area of ​​the input box 23 and cancel the display of the component logo 22.

[0190] Step 603b: Display the first editing component in an overlay manner on the area corresponding to the input box.

[0191] Exemplarily, in combination with FIG. 10A , as shown in FIG. 11 , the electronic device may overlay the first editing component 10 on the area corresponding to the input box 23 and cancel the display of the component identifier 22 .

[0192] In the embodiment of the present application, the electronic device can update the editing function in the editing interface through the component identification, thereby improving the flexibility of the electronic device in editing files.

[0193] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, after the above step 202, the file editing method provided by the embodiment of the present application further includes the following steps 701 to 703.

[0194] Step 701: The electronic device displays a second text in the input box.

[0195] In the embodiment of the present application, the second text is the text obtained by editing the first text.

[0196] It should be noted that the above input box is the input box corresponding to the initial input method.

[0197] In the embodiment of the present application, after the electronic device edits the first text through the first editing component to obtain the second text, the electronic device can copy the second text and display the second text in the above-mentioned input box.

[0198] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the electronic device may edit the second text again based on the editing function corresponding to the input method.

[0199] Step 702: The electronic device receives the sixth input from the user into the input box.

[0200] In the embodiment of the present application, the sixth input is used to send and save the second text.

[0201] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, the input box includes a send control, and the sixth input may be the user's input to the send control.

[0202] Exemplarily, the sixth input mentioned above includes but is not limited to: a user's touch input to the sending control through a touch device such as a finger or a stylus, or a specific gesture input by the user, or other feasible input, which can be determined according to actual usage requirements and is not limited in the embodiment of the present application. The specific gesture in the embodiment of the present application can be any one of a single-click gesture, a sliding gesture, a drag gesture, a pressure recognition gesture, a long press gesture, an area change gesture, a double-press gesture, and a double-click gesture; the click input in the embodiment of the present application can be a single-click input, a double-click input, or any number of click inputs, etc., and can also be a long press input or a short press input. For example, the first input mentioned above can be: a user's click input to the sending control.

[0203] Step 703: In response to the sixth input, the electronic device sends the second text to the communication partner, stores the second text, cancels the display of the first editing component in the editing interface, and displays a component identifier.

[0204] Exemplarily, the electronic device may save the second text in the electronic device; or, the electronic device may save the second text in a cloud server.

[0205] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the electronic device may save the second text in a target format.

[0206] Exemplarily, the target format may include any one of the following: image format, HyperText Markup Language (HTML) format, or text format.

[0207] Preferably, in the embodiment of the present application, since the HTML format is comparable to other formats in terms of compatibility in different applications, the second text is preferably saved in the HTML format in the present application.

[0208] In the embodiment of the present application, after the electronic device obtains the second text, the electronic device can send the second text through the initial input method editing area in the editing interface, thereby ensuring the accuracy of sending the second text.

[0209] For example, the method for editing a file provided by the embodiment of the present application is explained in detail by taking the first file including text as an example, which can be implemented through the following steps 20 to 23.

[0210] Step 20: Add an atomic component for rich text editing on the desktop of the electronic device.

[0211] In an embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned atomic components of rich text editing are used to edit text.

[0212] In the embodiment of the present application, the electronic device can add the rich text editing atomic component to the desktop according to the preset rich text editing atomic component. The atomic component initially only carries basic rich text editing capabilities, occupies low system memory, and supports functions such as click to view and create text editing.

[0213] Step 21: Add at least one text editing function to the rich text editing atomic component.

[0214] In an embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned atomic component supports drag interaction. By long pressing the component, a special extension badge will appear on the bottom edge of the component. The user can drag the badge with his finger to enlarge it, and it will cover the edge of the electronic device screen. Release the finger and the component will return to its original size. Among them, the office software covered by the component will be added to the component in a stacked form, and the functions in the software will be added to the component in the form of a union. Taking instant text as an example, its image text extraction function and printing and other functions will be added to the component for use, while the existing editing functions in the component remain unchanged. If the user no longer needs the above functions, the electronic device can move the instant text out of the component through the user's input, and the corresponding functions will also be removed.

[0215] Step 23: The electronic device performs text editing processing by adding at least one rich text editing atomic component to the rich text editing function to obtain edited text.

[0216] In an embodiment of the present application, when a user is working through an electronic device, for example, when writing an email, the rich text editing component will be adsorbed on the edge of the desktop in the form of a small icon, and the electronic device can drag the component into the edit box by dragging; if the editing capability of the component is needed, the electronic device can drag the component into the edit box based on the user's input. At this time, the component icon disappears, and the edit box part in the email will be refreshed to the rich text editor of the component. The electronic device can use the editing functions of the component to edit the text. For example: inserting embedded pictures, custom text types and sizes, custom emoticons, etc. After the editing is completed, the user clicks the Done button so that the electronic device can exit the editing mode and restore the component to icon form. Then, the edited content will be filled in the email editing box. The electronic device can automatically convert the edited text into HTML format, the original text will be saved to the cloud, the component window will be closed, and it will be displayed on the edge of the screen.

[0217] For example, the method for editing a file provided by the embodiment of the present application is explained in detail by taking the first file including an image as an example, which can be implemented through the following steps 30 to 33.

[0218] Step 30: Add an atomic component for image editing on the desktop of the electronic device.

[0219] In the embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned atomic component is a combination of at least one component carried in the system of the electronic device. The atomic component is a desktop component that can integrate various components and has multiple functions, that is, the atomic component can be a combination component of multiple components. The atomic component is a new type of component. The atomic component can display the program function icon of the application in the atomic component that only occupies a small area of ​​1x2 or 2x1 on the desktop of the electronic device, so that the user can directly control and operate the application through the atomic component displayed on the desktop. The atomic component in step 30 is used to edit and process the image.

[0220] In the embodiment of the present application, the electronic device can add the image editing atomic component to the desktop according to the preset image editing atomic component. The atomic component initially only carries basic image editing capabilities, occupies a low amount of system memory, and supports basic functions such as clicking to view and edit pictures.

[0221] Step 31: Add at least one image editing function to the image editing atomic component.

[0222] In an embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned atomic component supports drag interaction. By long pressing the component, a special extension badge will appear on the bottom edge of the component. The user can drag the badge with his finger to enlarge it, and it will cover the edge of the electronic device screen. Release the finger and the component will return to its original size. Among them, the image software that has been covered by the component will be added to the component in a stacked form, and the functions in the software will be added to the component in the form of a union. For example, when you open the component, you can view the camera's shooting function, and the image software's cutout, beautification and other functions. If the user no longer needs the above functions, the electronic device can move the instant text out of the component through the user's input, and the corresponding function will also be removed.

[0223] Step 32: The electronic device performs image editing processing by adding at least one image editing atomic component to the image editing to obtain an edited image.

[0224] In an embodiment of the present application, the component supports the integration of functions from different applications. For example, if the component has added applications such as a camera and AI painting, it provides a painting and photography function for painters who need to draw cartoons based on real scenes. The electronic device can activate the component to shoot scenery or portraits. After the shooting is completed, the picture can be automatically beautified to increase the clarity. Then, based on the user's input to the AI ​​drawing conversion icon, the current photo can be automatically converted into a cartoon picture through the AI ​​painting capability. In this way, different editing processes of the image can be achieved in one application.

[0225] For example, the method for editing a file provided by the embodiment of the present application is explained in detail by taking the first file including an image and text as an example, which can be implemented through the following steps 40 to 43.

[0226] Step 40: Add the rich text editing atomic component and the image editing atomic component to the desktop of the electronic device.
