[0035] Figure 1 is a flowchart illustrating a method for displaying a conversational interface according to an embodiment of this disclosure. This method can be executed by a device for displaying the conversational interface, which can be implemented in software and / or hardware and can be configured in an electronic device, such as a mobile phone or tablet. The method for displaying the conversational interface provided in this disclosure is applicable to scenarios where related content of the other party is displayed in the background of the conversational interface. As shown in Figure 1, the method for displaying the conversational interface provided in this embodiment may include:

[0036] S101, Receive the first user's operation to display the conversation interface for the second user.

[0037] The "Session Interface Display Operation" is a trigger operation used to indicate and display the session interface between the current user and another user. The execution method of the session interface display operation is not limited; for example, it can be an operation that triggers the session identifier between the current user and this user, an operation that triggers the user identifier of this user, or an operation that triggers the session interface display control corresponding to this user. The first user can be the user executing the session interface display operation, i.e., the current user. The second user can be the user corresponding to the session interface display operation, i.e., the user to whom the session interface display operation instructs to display the session interface between the first user and the second user. The first user and the second user can be different users.

[0038] In this embodiment, when a first user wants to view the conversation interface between themselves and another user, they can perform a conversation interface display operation for that user. Correspondingly, the current application can receive the conversation interface display operation performed by the first user.

[0039] S102. In response to the session interface display operation, display the session interface between the first user and the second user, and display the associated content of the second user as at least part of the interface background of the session interface.

[0040] The associated content of the second user can be understood as content related to the second user. The associated content of the second user is not limited; for example, it may include the second user's profile information and / or achievement information visible to the first user in the current application. Optionally, the associated content includes target media content published by the second user and / or associated visual information of a first location related to at least one of the first and second users.

[0041] The target media content can be media content published by the second user. The target media content can be any media content published by the second user; it can also be media content published by the second user that meets preset display conditions, such as media content whose publication time and / or media content type meet preset display conditions. Optionally, the publication time and / or media content type of the target media content meet the preset display conditions. The preset display conditions can be conditions displayed as the interface background in the conversation interface between the first user and the second user. The preset display conditions can be set as needed. For example, the preset display conditions can be the media content with the latest publication time and / or media content of a preset type. For example, the target media content can be the latest media content published by the second user of a preset type. This preset type can be a content type or a publishing method type. For example, the preset type of media content can be media content published using a preset publishing method. This embodiment does not limit this preset publishing method.

[0042] The first location can be a location associated with at least one of the first and second users, such as the location where at least one of the first and second users is currently located, or the location entered by at least one of the first and second users. The first location can be obtained with the full authorization of both the first and second users.

[0043] The associated visual information of the first location can be visual information related to the first location. The type of this visual information is not limited; for example, it can be the location information of the first location. Optionally, the associated visual information includes at least one of weather information and scenery information. For instance, the associated visual information of the first location can be weather information and / or scenery information of the first location. The associated visual information of the first location can be displayed in the form of images or interface elements, etc., and this embodiment does not limit this. Taking the display in the form of images as an example, the weather information of the first location can be, for example, a weather image of the first location; the scenery information of the first location can be, for example, an image of a scenic spot, a place, or an object at the first location.

[0044] Specifically, upon receiving a session interface display operation from the first user for the second user, the system can respond to this operation by displaying the session interface between the first user and the second user, and displaying the second user's associated content as at least part of the session interface background, as shown in Figures 2 and 3.

[0045] In some examples, as shown in Figure 2, when displaying the conversation interface between the first user and the second user in response to the conversation interface display operation, the target related content published by the second user can be displayed as at least the interface background of the conversation interface. That is, the target related content published by the second user can be displayed in at least part of the interface background area of ​​the conversation interface. For example, the latest media content of the second user of a preset type can be displayed in at least part of the interface background area of ​​the conversation interface.

[0046] In some examples, as shown in Figure 3 (where the associated visual information is weather information and the first location is currently experiencing rain), when displaying the conversation interface between the first user and the second user in response to the conversation interface display operation, the associated visual information of the first location related to at least one of the first and second users can be displayed as at least part of the interface background of the conversation interface. That is, the associated visual information of the first location can be displayed in at least part of the interface background area of ​​the conversation interface. For example, the weather information and / or scenery information of the first location can be displayed in at least part of the interface background area of ​​the conversation interface.

[0047] In some implementations, the associated content includes target media content published by the second user. After displaying the associated content of the second user as at least part of the interface background of the session interface, the implementation further includes: in response to a media content display operation based on the session interface, displaying a media content display interface of the second user, wherein the media content display interface supports switching between displaying different media content published by the second user.

[0048] The media content display interface for the second user can be an interface used to display media content published by the second user. For example, the media content display interface for the second user can support switching between different media content published by the second user. For instance, the media content display interface for the second user can support switching between at least a portion of the media content published by the second user that is visible to the first user. For example, the media content display page can display multiple user identifiers; when the current user triggers a user identifier, the second media content published by that user can be displayed on the media content display page. Alternatively, the arrangement order of the second users and the order switching control can be preset; when the current user triggers this order switching control, the media content displayed on the media content display page can be switched according to the arrangement order of the second users. Furthermore, when the media content of one second user finishes playing, it can automatically switch to the media content of the next second user for display. The at least a portion of the media content displayed on the media content display page can include, but is not limited to, preset types of media content.

[0049] The media content display operation can be a trigger operation used to instruct the display of media content display interface for a second user. The media content display operation can be performed within the conversation interface between the first user and the second user. The execution method of the media content display operation is not limited; optionally, the media content display operation includes at least one of a swipe display operation and a click display operation, wherein the swipe display operation includes a multi-finger swipe display operation; and / or, the click display operation includes clicking a media content display control, the media content display control remaining displayed within the conversation interface, or, the media content display control being displayed within the conversation interface in response to a screen clearing operation on the conversation interface.

[0050] The swipe-to-display operation can be a media content display operation performed by swiping. This swipe-to-display operation can include multi-finger swipe-to-display operations within the conversation interface. For example, a first user can perform a media content display operation by swiping with multiple fingers within the conversation interface between themselves and a second user. This multi-finger swipe-to-display operation can be, for example, a multi-finger expand swipe-to-display operation, such as a two-finger or three-finger expand trigger operation within the conversation interface.

[0051] A click-to-display operation is a media content display operation performed by clicking. This click-to-display operation can include clicking a media content display control. For example, a first user can perform a media content display operation by clicking a media content display control displayed in the conversation interface between them and a second user. This media content display control can remain displayed in the conversation interface; it can also be displayed in response to a screen clearing operation, that is, it can be displayed in the conversation interface even when the conversation interface is in a cleared state.

[0052] In the above embodiments, users can switch from the conversation interface between themselves and the second user to the media content display interface of the second user, and view the different media content published by the second user in the media content display interface without having to exit the conversation interface and perform a series of triggering operations to view it. This simplifies the operations required to switch from the conversation interface to the media content display interface of the second user, thereby simplifying the operations required to view the different media content published by the second user.

[0053] Specifically, upon receiving a media content display operation from the first user based on the conversation interface, the media content display interface of the second user can be displayed, and the media content published by the second user can be displayed in the media content display interface.

[0054] For example, when a multi-finger spread gesture is detected in the first user's chat interface, or when a media content display control in the chat interface is triggered by the first user, the currently displayed interface can be switched from the chat interface to the media content display interface for the second user, and the target media content displayed in the chat interface can continue to be displayed in the media content display interface.

[0055] In some implementations, users can clear the chat interface to prevent the content displayed in the chat interface from obscuring the target media content displayed in the background, allowing for a complete view of the target media content displayed in the chat interface background. Optionally, the associated content includes the target media content published by the second user. After displaying the second user's associated content as at least part of the chat interface background, the implementation further includes: in response to a clearing operation within the chat interface, canceling the display of preset interface content in the chat interface while maintaining the display of the second user's associated content, wherein the preset interface content at least includes interface content whose display area overlaps with the display area of ​​the associated content.

[0056] The screen clearing operation can be a trigger operation used to indicate the cancellation of the display of interface content that obstructs the target media content. The execution method of the screen clearing operation is not limited; for example, it can include triggering a screen clearing control, and / or performing a multi-finger swipe screen clearing operation within the session interface. This multi-finger swipe screen clearing operation can be understood as clearing the screen through multi-finger swipes, which can include multi-finger swipe operations, such as two-finger swipe operations. The screen clearing operation is different from the aforementioned media content display operation.

[0057] The preset interface content can be understood as the interface content that is canceled in response to the screen clearing operation. The preset interface content must at least include media content in the session interface that obscures the media image of the target media content. The preset interface content may or may not include media content in the session interface that does not obstruct the media image of the target media content, which can be set according to needs.

[0058] For example, when a screen clearing operation is received within the session interface, the preset interface content in the session interface can be canceled, such as canceling the display of interface content that obscures the media content of the target media content; and the target media content can be kept displayed in the background of the session interface for the first user to view.

[0059] As an optional example, when displaying the conversation interface between the first user and the second user, the target media content published by the second user can be displayed in at least a portion of the background area of ​​the conversation interface, as shown in the first image of Figure 4. When a screen-clearing operation is detected, such as when the first user performs a multi-finger swipe operation in the conversation interface, the interface content that obscures the target media content in the conversation interface can be removed, and the target media content can remain displayed in the background of the conversation interface. A media content display control 40 is added to the conversation interface, as shown in the second image of Figure 4. When the first user triggers this media content display control 40, it is determined that a media content display operation has been received, and in response to this operation, the media content display interface of the second user is displayed, as shown in the third image of Figure 4.

[0060] In this embodiment, after displaying the media content display interface of the second user, the first user can switch between different media content published by the second user in the media content display interface. For example, the second user can swipe to switch the media content currently displayed in the media content display interface.

[0061] After displaying the media content display interface for the second user, the first user can send conversational messages to the second user within the media content display interface. For example, as shown in the third figure of Figure 4, a conversational message input control 41 can be displayed in the media content display interface. Thus, the first user can trigger this conversational message input control 41 to instruct the current application to display a conversational message input area to input and send conversational messages to the second user.

[0062] Furthermore, after displaying the media content display interface for the second user, the first user can also return to the conversation interface between them. For example, as shown in the third figure of Figure 4, a close control 42 can be displayed in the media content display interface. Thus, the first user can trigger this close control 42 to allow the current application to cancel the display of the media content display interface for the second user and redisplay the conversation interface between the first and second users.

[0063] In some implementations, the associated content includes associated visual information of a first location related to at least one of the first user and the second user. After displaying the associated content of the second user as at least part of the interface background of the session interface, the method further includes: in response to a location switching operation, switching the currently displayed associated visual information in the session interface to associated visual information of the second location; and / or, in response to a user switching operation, switching the currently displayed associated visual information in the session interface to associated visual information of a third location corresponding to a target user, wherein the target user is the first user or the second user.

[0064] The location switching operation can be a trigger operation used to indicate a change in the current display position of its associated visual element, such as triggering a confirmation control after inputting or selecting a position. The second position can be the position indicated by the location switching operation, such as the position input or selected by the first user. The user switching operation can be used to indicate the user displaying the associated visual element at its associated position. The target user can be either the first user or the second user, specifically determined based on whether the first position displayed before the switch was associated with the first user or the second user. The third position can be the associated position of the target user. The third position can be set by the target user, and it can be the same as or different from the first and / or second positions.

[0065] In the above embodiments, users can switch between displaying related visual elements at different locations and / or switch between displaying related visual elements at the locations of different users in the conversation interface, so as to further enrich the content displayed in the conversation interface and meet the needs of users to view related visual elements at different locations and / or related visual elements at the locations of different users.

[0066] For example, upon receiving a location switching operation, the currently associated visual element displayed in the session interface can be switched from the associated visual element of the first location to the associated visual element of the second location. For instance, as shown in Figure 3, a location setting control 30 can be displayed in the session interface; thus, when the first user triggers this location setting control 30, a location setting interface can be displayed, allowing the user to input or select the second location they wish to switch to in the location setting interface, and when the first user triggers the confirmation control in the location setting interface, the currently associated visual element displayed in the session interface is switched to the associated visual element of this second location.

[0067] For example, upon receiving a user switching operation, the currently displayed associated visual element in the session interface can be switched to the associated visual element in the third position corresponding to the target user. For instance, a user switching control can be displayed in the session interface. Therefore, when the first user triggers this user switching control, if the associated content displayed in the session interface at this time is an associated visual element in a position corresponding to the first user, the currently displayed associated visual element in the session interface can be switched to the associated visual element in the third position corresponding to the second user; conversely, if the associated content displayed in the session interface at this time is an associated visual element in a position corresponding to the second user, the currently displayed associated visual element in the session interface can be switched to the associated visual element in the third position corresponding to the first user.

[0068] In some implementations, when the associated content displayed in the condensed form of the conversation interface changes, the associated content displayed in the background of the conversation interface can be updated to improve the usability of the associated content displayed in the conversation interface. For example, when the target media content published by the second user changes, the media content currently displayed in the background of the conversation interface can be switched to the changed target media content; and / or, when the associated visual element at the first position changes, the associated visual element currently displayed in the background of the conversation interface can be switched to the associated visual element after the change in the first position, and so on. Optionally, after displaying the associated content of the second user as at least part of the background of the conversation interface, the method further includes: updating the associated content displayed in the background in response to changes in the associated content.

[0069] The method for displaying a conversation interface provided in this embodiment receives a conversation interface display operation from a first user for a second user; in response to this operation, the conversation interface between the first and second users is displayed, and the related content of the second user is displayed as at least part of the background of the conversation interface. This embodiment, utilizing the above technical solution, supports displaying the other party's related content in the background of the conversation interface, eliminating the need for the user to go through a series of triggering operations to switch to the corresponding related content interface. This enriches the content displayed in the conversation interface and simplifies the operations required to view the other party's related content based on the conversation interface.

[0070] Figure 5 is a flowchart illustrating another method for displaying a conversation interface provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. The solution in this embodiment can be combined with one or more optional solutions in the above embodiments. Optionally, before displaying the associated content of the second user as at least part of the interface background of the conversation interface, the method further includes: triggering the determination that the current display theme of the conversation interface is a preset display theme, wherein the preset display theme corresponds to a preset association relationship between the first user and the second user.

[0071] Accordingly, as shown in Figure 5, the method for displaying the session interface provided in this embodiment may include:

[0072] S201, Receive the first user's operation to display the conversation interface for the second user.

[0073] S202. In response to the session interface display operation, a determination is made that the current display theme of the session interface is a preset display theme, and the preset display theme corresponds to the preset association relationship between the first user and the second user.

[0074] In this embodiment, at least a partial display theme can support displaying the other party's related content in the background of the conversation interface. A preset display theme can be understood as at least a partial display theme that supports displaying the other party's related content in the interface background; the number of target display themes can be one or more. The preset display theme can correspond to a preset association relationship between the first user and the second user. This preset association relationship can be set by the first user and / or the second user, and / or established based on the interaction behavior between the first user and the second user, etc.

[0075] Specifically, upon receiving the operation to display the conversation interface, it can trigger a determination of whether the current display theme used by the conversation interface between the first user and the second user is the preset display theme. If the current display theme used by the conversation interface is the preset display theme, then S203 can be executed to display the conversation interface between the first user and the second user, and display the related content of the second user in the background of this conversation interface, as shown in Figures 2 and 3. Correspondingly, if the current display theme of the conversation interface is not the preset display theme, then the conversation interface between the first user and the second user can be displayed using the current display theme of the conversation interface.

[0076] For example, the display styles of the conversation interface corresponding to different display themes may not be exactly the same. For instance, when different display themes are used, the display styles of at least some interface elements in the conversation interface between the first user and the second user may be different. These at least some interface elements can be flexibly set as needed. For example, these at least some interface elements may include at least some interactive controls in the conversation interface, conversation messages displayed in the conversation interface, user identifiers displayed in the conversation interface, and / or the conversation name of the target conversation interface displayed in the conversation interface.

[0077] In some implementations, when displaying the conversation interface between the first user and the second user using a preset display theme, in addition to displaying the second user's related content in at least a portion of the interface background based on the preset display theme, at least some interface elements in the conversation interface can also be displayed in a display style corresponding to the preset display theme. For example, at least some interactive controls, conversation messages, user identifiers, and / or conversation names can be displayed in a display style corresponding to the preset display theme to further enrich the display style of the interface elements in the conversation interface, thereby enriching the overall display style of the conversation interface. Optionally, the conversation interface display method may further include: in response to the conversation interface display operation, displaying at least some interface elements in the conversation interface using a display style corresponding to the preset display theme, wherein the at least some interface elements include at least one of at least some interactive controls, conversation messages, user identifiers, and conversation names.

[0078] The above-described display style, corresponding to a preset display theme, includes at least some interactive controls that can be configured as needed. Optionally, these at least some interactive controls include a conversation message input control and / or interactive controls displayed in association with the conversation message input control. This conversation message input control can be a control used to trigger the display of the conversation message input area for inputting the message content of the conversation message to be sent, such as a conversation message input box. Interactive controls displayed in association with the conversation message input control can be understood as interactive controls whose display position is associated with the display position of the conversation message input control, such as controls displayed above or below the conversation message input control in the conversation interface, or interactive controls displayed within the conversation information input box.

[0079] In this embodiment, the display theme of the conversation interface between the first user and the second user can be set by the first user and / or the second user. After one of the first user and the second user sets the display theme of this conversation interface as the target display theme, when at least one of the first user and the second user views this conversation interface, the conversation interface can be displayed using a preset display theme, such as displaying the other party's related content in the interface background. Optionally, the preset display theme can be set by at least one of the first user and the second user, and the set preset display theme is configured to display the other party's related content in the conversation interface on the first user's side and / or the second user's side.

[0080] For example, when a first user wants to set the display theme of the conversation interface between the first user and the second user to a preset display theme, the process of setting the preset display theme can be described as follows: When the first user performs a theme setting operation on the conversation interface, such as when the first user triggers the theme setting control 20 displayed in the conversation interface (as shown in the first figure in Figure 6), the theme setting interface of the conversation interface can be displayed, and at least one display theme identifier 60 can be displayed in the theme setting interface, as shown in the second figure in Figure 6. When a confirmation operation is received for the preset display theme identifier of the preset display theme among the at least one display theme identifier 60 displayed in the theme setting interface, such as when the first user triggers the confirmation control 61 displayed in the theme setting interface after selecting the preset display theme identifier, the display theme of the conversation interface can be set to the preset display theme. For example, when displaying the conversation interface between the first user and the second user, the associated content of the second user is displayed in the background of the conversation interface, as shown in the third figure in Figure 6 (the associated content is taken as the target media content in the figure).

[0081] In some implementations, users can also view previews of one or more display themes in the theme settings interface, allowing them to quickly determine the desired display theme and reducing the time spent setting the theme. For example, when a first user triggers a display theme identifier 60 (such as a preset display theme identifier) ​​displayed in the theme settings interface, a preview 62 showing the session interface using the display theme corresponding to this display theme identifier 60 can be displayed in the theme settings interface, as shown in the second figure of Figure 6 (the figure shows a preview 62 of a preset display theme as an example).

[0082] In addition, in some examples, the theme settings interface can also allow users to switch between previews of different display themes by swiping. For example, when the first user is detected to swipe horizontally or vertically in the theme settings interface, the currently displayed preview can be switched from the preview of the current display theme to the preview of the next display theme according to the display order of each display theme icon in the theme settings interface, and the display theme icon of the next display theme can be further switched to the selected state.

[0083] S203. Display the conversation interface between the first user and the second user, and display the associated content of the second user as at least part of the interface background of the conversation interface.

[0084] In this embodiment, when the current display theme used between the first user and the second user is the preset display theme, the related content of the second user can be displayed in the background of the interface of the conversation interface between the first user and the second user.

[0085] In some implementations, a preset display theme can default to displaying the associated content of the first user and / or the second user in the background of the session interface. When a user does not wish to display the associated content of the first user and / or the second user in the background of the preset display theme, they can switch the background corresponding to the preset display theme. For example, a user can switch the currently used background of the preset display theme by performing a background switching operation for the preset display theme to meet the user's different background display needs. Optionally, the session interface display method may further include: in response to the background switching operation for the preset display theme, switching the background used by the session interface under the preset display theme.

[0086] The interface background switching operation can be a trigger operation used to indicate the current interface background used by the preset display theme. For example, it could trigger an operation to select a candidate interface background displayed in the preset display theme's background settings interface, or it could trigger an operation to select a specific image content displayed in the album interface after switching from the background settings interface to the album interface. This image content can be understood as image-type content, such as pictures and / or videos.

[0087] For example, as shown in the second image of Figure 6, when a preview of the preset display theme is displayed in the theme settings interface, a background settings control 63 for the preset display theme can be further displayed in the theme settings interface. When the first user triggers this background settings control 63, the background settings interface 70 for the preset display theme can be displayed, as shown in Figure 7. The background settings interface 70 can display one or more recommended candidate interface backgrounds, and can also display an album control 71.

[0088] Thus, the first user can perform an interface background switching operation by triggering a candidate interface background displayed in the background settings interface 70; and / or, switch to the album interface by triggering the album control 71 displayed in the background settings interface 70, and perform an interface background switching operation by triggering a certain image content displayed in the album interface.

[0089] Correspondingly, when the current application detects that the first user has performed a background switching operation, it can switch the current background of the preset display theme to the background or image content corresponding to this background switching operation.

[0090] After the settings are completed, when the preset display theme is used to display the conversation interface between the first user and the second user, the background of this conversation interface can be the background or image content set by the first user and / or the second user. At this time, the background of the conversation interface may not display the other party's related content.

[0091] The method for displaying a conversation interface provided in this embodiment displays the other party's related content in the background of the conversation interface under a preset display theme. As a result, users can switch the content displayed in the background of the conversation interface by switching the display theme, which can enrich the display theme types of the conversation interface and meet the different background display needs of users.
