[0005] In a first aspect, the present application provides a wallpaper setting method, which includes: an electronic device displays a first interface, the first interface includes a first preview page, and the first preview page is used to display the effect of a first wallpaper applied to the electronic device in a first device form; the electronic device detects a first operation acting on the first interface; in response to the first operation, the electronic device displays a second interface, the second interface includes a second preview page, and the second preview page is used to display the effect of the first wallpaper applied to the electronic device in a second device form; wherein the first device form and the second device form are the unfolded state or the folded state of the electronic device, the first device form is different from the second device form, and the first interface and the second interface are wallpaper setting interfaces.

[0006] For a two-fold electronic device, the first interface may, for example, be the interface shown in FIG. 5A, the second interface may, for example, be the interface shown in FIG. 5B, and the first operation may, for example, be the operation for the identifier 511, or the first interface may, for example, be the interface shown in FIG. 5B, the second interface may, for example, be the interface shown in FIG. 5A, and the first operation may, for example, be the operation for the identifier 512, or the first interface may, for example, be the interface shown in FIG. 5G, the second interface may, for example, be the interface shown in FIG. 5H, and the first operation may, for example, be the operation for the identifier 552, or the first interface may, for example, be the interface shown in FIG. 5H, the second interface may, for example, be the interface shown in FIG. 5B, and the first operation may, for example, be the operation for the identifier 551.

[0007] For a three-fold electronic device, the first interface and the second interface may, for example, be any two interfaces shown in FIGS. 8A-8C, or any two interfaces shown in FIGS. 9A-9C, or any two interfaces shown in FIGS. 10A-10C. Taking an example in which the first interface is the interface shown in FIG. 8A and the second interface is the interface shown in FIG. 8B, the first operation may, for example, be the operation for the identifier 812.

[0008] The first preview page may, for example, be a preview page when the first wallpaper is applied to a lock screen / interface or a desktop in the first device form, and the second preview page may, for example, be a preview page when the first wallpaper is applied to a lock screen / interface or a desktop in the second device form.

[0009] By implementing the method provided in the first aspect, for a two-fold electronic device, during the wallpaper setting process, the electronic device, when in the unfolded state, can support the user to directly preview the effect of the inner screen and the outer screen when a certain wallpaper is applied on the inner screen without folding the screen, and the electronic device, when in the folded state, can support the user to directly preview the effect of the inner screen and the outer screen when a certain wallpaper is applied on the outer screen without unfolding the screen; for a three-fold electronic device, during the wallpaper setting process, the electronic device, when in the unfolded state, can support the user to directly preview the effect of a certain wallpaper when applied in the folded state A and the folded state B without folding the screen, and the electronic device, when in the folded state A or the folded state B, can support the user to directly preview the effect of a certain wallpaper when applied in the unfolded state without unfolding the screen.

[0010] In a possible implementation, the method further includes: detecting, by the electronic device, a second operation; and in response to the second operation, applying, by the electronic device, the first wallpaper in the first device form and applying the first wallpaper in the second device form.

[0011] The second operation can be an operation of applying the first wallpaper. In this way, the wallpapers applied in the first device form and the second device form are the same. The wallpaper application operation can set the wallpapers in the two device forms, which is convenient and fast, and improves the wallpaper setting efficiency.

[0012] In a possible implementation, the method further includes: detecting, by the electronic device, a third operation; and in response to the third operation, replacing, by the electronic device, the first wallpaper with the second wallpaper in the second interface, and displaying, by the electronic device, a third preview page in the second interface, the third preview page being used to display an effect of the second wallpaper applied to the electronic device in the second device form.

[0013] For example, the first wallpaper can be the wallpaper shown in FIG. 5B, the second wallpaper can be the wallpaper shown in FIG. 5D, the third preview page can be the preview page shown in FIG. 5D, and the third operation can be an operation of clicking the wallpaper replacement option shown in FIG. 5B and an operation of selecting the wallpaper shown in FIG. 5C.

[0014] In this way, the wallpapers applied in different device forms can be replaced in one wallpaper setting process, which simplifies the user operation and improves the user experience.

[0015] In a possible implementation, the method further includes: detecting, by the electronic device, a fourth operation; and in response to the fourth operation, applying, by the electronic device, the first wallpaper in the first device form and the second wallpaper in the second device form.

[0016] The fourth operation can be an operation of applying the first wallpaper and the second wallpaper.

[0017] In a possible implementation, the second interface further includes a first control, the first control being used to replace the wallpaper, and the third operation includes: an operation of the user on the first control, the operation being used to trigger the electronic device to display a first window, the first window including one or more wallpapers, the one or more wallpapers including the second wallpaper, the second wallpaper being different from the first wallpaper; and the third operation further includes: an operation of the user in the first window to select the second wallpaper.

[0018] The first control can be a control used to replace the wallpaper (for example, the wallpaper replacement option shown in FIG. 5B), and the first window can be a window used to select the wallpaper (for example, the window shown in FIG. 5C).

[0019] In this way, the selection of the wallpaper can be completed without exiting the current interface, and the operation is simple and convenient.

[0020] In a possible implementation, the electronic device applies the first wallpaper in the first device form, and specifically includes: applying, by the electronic device, the first wallpaper to a desktop and / or a lock screen interface in the first device form.

[0021] That is, the wallpaper can be applied to the desktop, and can also be applied to the lock screen interface.

[0022] In a possible implementation, before the electronic device applies the first wallpaper in the first device form and the second wallpaper in the second device form, the method further includes: the electronic device displays a second window, the second window including a first preview frame and a second preview frame, the first preview frame being used to display an effect of the first wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface in the first device form, and the second preview frame being used to display an effect of the first wallpaper applied to the desktop in the first device form; the electronic device detects a fifth operation acting on the second window; in response to the fifth operation, the electronic device displays a third window, the third window including a third preview frame and a fourth preview frame, the third preview frame being used to display an effect of the second wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface in the second device form, and the fourth preview frame being used to display an effect of the second wallpaper applied to the desktop in the second device form.

[0023] Exemplarily, taking a two-fold electronic device as an example, the first device form can be an unfolded state, the second device form can be a folded state, the second window can be the window shown in FIG. 5E, the third window can be the window shown in FIG. 5F, the first preview frame can be the preview frame 543 shown in FIG. 5E, the second preview frame can be the preview frame 544 shown in FIG. 5E, the third preview frame can be the preview frame 547 shown in FIG. 5F, the fourth preview frame can be the preview frame 548 shown in FIG. 5F, and the fifth operation can be an operation on the identifier 541 shown in FIG. 5E.

[0024] In this way, the electronic device can support the user to preview the effects of the wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface and the desktop in the first device form and the second device form.

[0025] In a possible implementation, the method further includes: in response to an operation of selecting the first preview frame, the electronic device applies the first wallpaper to the lock screen interface of the electronic device in the first device form; and / or, in response to an operation of selecting the second preview frame, the electronic device applies the first wallpaper to the desktop of the electronic device in the first device form; and / or, in response to an operation of selecting the third preview frame, the electronic device applies the second wallpaper to the lock screen interface of the electronic device in the second device form; and / or, in response to an operation of selecting the fourth preview frame, the electronic device applies the second wallpaper to the desktop of the electronic device in the second device form.

[0026] In this way, the electronic device can support the user to select to apply the wallpaper to the lock screen interface and / or the desktop.

[0027] In a possible implementation, the effect of the first wallpaper in the first device form is different from the effect of the first wallpaper in the second device form, and the effect includes one or more of the following: a display specification of the first wallpaper, a range of viewfinder.

[0028] The display specification can include a size of the wallpaper. In actual application, in order to provide a better visual experience for the user, the size of the wallpaper needs to be adapted to the size of the screen. For a foldable electronic device, the size of the screen is different in the folded state and the unfolded state, and therefore the size of the wallpaper is also different. It can be easily understood that, for the same wallpaper, the size of the wallpaper is different, and the content of the wallpaper can also be different. Here, the content of the wallpaper can refer to the range of the viewfinder of the wallpaper, that is, for the same wallpaper, the range of the viewfinder is different for different sizes, and the content is also different.

[0029] In a possible implementation, the first preview page is a preview page of a lock screen interface when the first wallpaper is applied to the first device form, and the first preview page includes the first component. The method further includes: detecting, by the electronic device, an editing operation of the user on the first component; and in response to the editing operation, displaying, by the electronic device, the edited first component on the first preview page. The editing operation includes one or more of the following: a layout editing operation, a style editing operation, a font style editing operation, a font color editing operation, a display content editing operation, and a lock screen signature editing operation.

[0030] The first component can be, for example, a clock component. In this way, during the wallpaper setting process, the component on the lock screen interface can be directly personalized and edited, which is convenient and fast, and can provide a personalized experience for the user.

[0031] In a possible implementation, the method further includes: detecting, by the electronic device, a sixth operation, the sixth operation being an operation of adding a first service card to the lock screen interface; and in response to the sixth operation, displaying, by the electronic device, the first service card on the first preview page.

[0032] In this way, during the wallpaper setting process, the service card can be directly added to the lock screen interface, which is convenient and fast.

[0033] In a possible implementation, the electronic device includes a foldable screen and a non-foldable screen, and the foldable screen faces away from the non-foldable screen.

[0034] For example, for a two-fold electronic device, the foldable screen can be an inner screen, and the non-foldable screen can be an outer screen.

[0035] In a possible implementation, the electronic device includes a foldable screen, and the foldable screen includes a first screen, a second screen, and a third screen. The foldable state includes a first foldable state and a second foldable state. The method further includes: detecting, by the electronic device, a seventh operation; and in response to the seventh operation, displaying, by the electronic device, a fourth interface. The fourth interface includes a fourth preview page, and the fourth preview page is used to display an effect of the first wallpaper applied to the electronic device in a third device form. The third device form is different from the first device form and the second device form, and the fourth interface is a wallpaper setting interface.

[0036] Exemplarily, assuming that the first interface is the interface shown in FIG. 8A, the second interface is the interface shown in FIG. 8B, and the fourth interface is the interface shown in FIG. 8C, the seventh operation can be an operation on the identifier 813, the fourth preview page can be a preview page of the first wallpaper when applied to the third device form, and the lock screen interface / desk, the first folding state and the second folding state can be the half folding state or the fully folding state. In a possible implementation, the method further includes: saving, by the electronic device, first data, the first data including, in the first device form, wallpaper data applied to the desk and / or the lock screen interface, and in the second device form, wallpaper data applied to the desk and / or the lock screen interface.

[0037] The first data can be data of a wallpaper set by a user and saved by the electronic device, and the storage of the data can refer to the related description of FIG. 12 and FIG. 13.

[0038] In a second aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a chip system, including: a processor, the processor being coupled with a memory, the memory being used to store a program or an instruction, when the program or the instruction is executed by the processor, the chip system executes the method in any possible implementation manner of the first aspect.

It can be a visual interface element such as text, icons, buttons, menus, tabs, text boxes, dialog boxes, status bars, navigation bars, Widgets, and the like displayed in the display screen of the electronic device.

[0065] With the evolution of the times, people pursue more individuality. Electronic devices such as mobile phones need to meet such needs because of the high frequency of use by users.

[0066] With the development of electronic devices, the individualization function of electronic devices is becoming more and more rich, and the wallpaper setting is one of the many individualization functions. The wallpaper is a background image displayed by the electronic device. According to the use scenario, the wallpaper can be used as a lock screen (login) background displayed on the display screen of the electronic device, a desktop background, and the like. The lock screen background refers to the background picture displayed by the electronic device when displaying the lock screen interface, and the desktop background refers to the background picture displayed by the electronic device when displaying the desktop. The names of the above-mentioned backgrounds are only examples, and their essence has been clearly described in the introduction of the present application. The names do not limit the present application, and they can also be called other names.

[0067] The lock screen wallpaper and the desktop wallpaper are usually the most intuitive way to express individuality. The electronic device can support the user to select the preset wallpaper in the electronic device or various photos / pictures in the gallery as the lock screen wallpaper and the desktop wallpaper.

[0068] The foldable screen device (also referred to as a foldable electronic device or a foldable screen electronic device) refers to an electronic device with a foldable display screen. The foldable display screen in the foldable screen device can adopt a one-piece flexible display screen, or a spliced display screen composed of multiple flexible display screens based on a hinge or a rotating shaft located between the two flexible display screens, or a spliced display screen composed of multiple rigid screens and a hinge or a rotating shaft located between the two rigid screens, and the like. The embodiments of the present application do not limit this.

[0069] With the emergence of folding screen devices, a single electronic device can have multiple independent screens at the same time, and the individual setting of wallpaper for each screen by users is gradually emerging. Therefore, how to perform personalized setting and editing experience of multiple sets of wallpaper on the folding screen device is a problem to be solved at present.

[0070] The wallpaper setting method provided by the embodiments of the present application can be applied to an electronic device 100 with a folding screen which can be folded to form at least two screens. For example, the folding screen can be folded along a folding edge or folding axis to form screen 1 and screen 2.

[0071] The electronic device 100 described above can be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a desktop computer, a laptop computer, a handheld computer, a notebook computer, an ultra-mobile personal computer (UMPC), a netbook, a cellular phone, a personal digital assistant (PDA), an augmented reality (AR) \ virtual reality (VR) device, and the like, which is an electronic device with a folding screen. The specific type of the electronic device 100 is not specially limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0072] In order to more clearly illustrate the wallpaper setting method provided by the present application, the electronic device 100 with a folding screen involved in the present application will be introduced first.

[0073] The folding screen of the electronic device 100 can have multiple folding modes. For example, the folding screen can be folded outward, and can also be folded inward. The folding screen folded outward can be referred to as an outer folding screen or an outer folding screen, and the folding screen folded inward can be referred to as an inner folding screen or an inner folding screen. In some examples, the folding screen of the electronic device 100 can be folded outward or inward. Taking the folding screen which can be folded to form screen 1 and screen 2 as an example, the outer folding screen is folded, the display direction of screen 1 and the display direction of screen 2 are opposite, and the inner folding screen is folded, the display direction of screen 1 and the display direction of screen 2 are opposite, screen 1 can also be referred to as A screen, and screen 2 can also be referred to as B screen. The folding mode of the folding screen is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0074] In the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device 100 can adopt an inner folding screen.

[0075] Exemplarily, refer to FIGS. 1A-1C, which show a product form of an electronic device 100 with an inner folding folding screen provided by an embodiment of the present application. FIG. 1A is a schematic diagram of the form when the inner folding folding screen is fully unfolded. The inner folding folding screen can be folded along the folding edge in the directions 11a and 11b shown exemplarily in FIG. 1A, and can form the A screen and the B screen in the semi-folded form shown exemplarily in FIG. 1B. The inner folding folding screen can continue to be folded along the folding edge in the directions 12a and 12b shown exemplarily in FIG. 1B, and can form the folding screen in the fully folded form shown exemplarily in FIG. 1C. As shown in FIG. 1C, after the folding screen of the electronic device 100 is fully folded, the A screen and the B screen are opposite to each other and invisible to the user.

[0076] It should be noted that the back of the screen 1 or the screen 2 of the inner folding folding screen provided by an embodiment of the present application can also be provided with a display screen, which can be referred to as a screen 3. For example, as shown in FIG. 1B, the back of the A screen (i.e., the screen 1) can be provided with a C screen (i.e., the screen 3). As shown in FIG. 1C, after the inner folding folding screen is fully folded, the C screen is opposite to the A screen, and the C screen is visible to the user. The C screen can be on the same side as the rear camera on the electronic device 100. It can be understood that for the electronic device 100 with such an inner folding folding screen, when the folding screen is in the fully folded state, the screen 3 can display the interface; when the folding screen is in the semi-folded state, the screens 1, 2 and 3 can display the interface; and when the folding screen is in the unfolded state, the screens 1 and 2 can display the interface.

[0077] In some examples, the included angle a of the A screen and the B screen is the folding angle of the folding screen. The included angle a of the A screen and the B screen described above can be in the range of [0°, 180°]. Wherein, if a ∈ [0°, P1], the electronic device 100 can determine that the folding screen is in the fully folded form; if a ∈ (P1, P2), the electronic device 100 can determine that the folding screen is in the semi-folded form; and a ∈ [P2, 180°], the electronic device 100 can determine that the folding screen is in the fully unfolded form. Wherein, 0° < P1 < P2 < 180°. P1 and P2 can be preset angle thresholds. P1 and P2 can be determined according to the use habits of a large number of users using the folding screen; or P1 and P2 can be set by the user in the electronic device 100.

[0078] In some examples, the electronic device 100 can switch the display area when the open-close state changes. When the electronic device 100 is in the folded state shown in FIG. 1C, the electronic device 100 can use the C screen for display. When it is detected that the open-close state of the electronic device 100 changes from the folded state shown in FIG. 1C to the unfolded state shown in FIG. 1A, the electronic device 100 can switch the screen used for display. For example, the electronic device 100 can turn off the C screen and use the folded screens (i.e., the A screen and the B screen) for display. Conversely, when it is detected that the open-close state of the electronic device 100 changes from the unfolded state shown in FIG. 1A to the folded state shown in FIG. 1C, the electronic device 100 can switch the screen used for display. For example, the electronic device 100 can turn off the A screen and the B screen and use the C screen for display.

[0079] Exemplarily, the electronic device 100 can determine whether the folding angle of the folded screen changes to a preset angle interval when the open-close state changes, to determine whether to switch the screen used for display. For example, when the electronic device 100 changes from the folded state to the unfolded state (i.e., the included angle a gradually increases), the electronic device 100 can switch the screen used for display from the C screen to the A screen and the B screen when the included angle a changes to within the angle interval 1 [80°, 180°]. When the electronic device 100 changes from the unfolded state to the folded state (i.e., the included angle a gradually decreases), the electronic device 100 can switch the screen used for display from the A screen and the B screen to the C screen when the included angle a changes to within the angle interval 2 [0°, 80°]. The above-mentioned angle interval 1 can be referred to as an angle interval triggering the A screen and the B screen to turn on. The above-mentioned angle interval 2 can be referred to as an angle interval triggering the C screen to turn on. The specific values of the angle interval 1 and the angle interval 2 are only exemplary descriptions of the present application and should not constitute a limitation on the present application.

[0080] In some examples, since the C screen and the folding screen of the electronic device 100 are independent screens, the electronic device 100 can independently control the C screen and the folding screen. In the folded state, in response to an event for triggering screen power-on, the electronic device 100 can power on the C screen and light up the C screen. The event for triggering screen power-on in the folded state can include an event that the power key is pressed, an event that the C screen is touched or clicked, a fingerprint unlocking event, and the like. In the unfolded state, in response to an event for triggering screen power-on, the electronic device 100 can power on the A screen and the B screen and light up the A screen and the B screen. The event for triggering screen power-on in the unfolded state can include an event that the power key is pressed, an event that the folding screen is touched or clicked, a fingerprint unlocking event, and the like. In a case where the C screen is in a power-on state, when the screen for display needs to be switched from the C screen to the A screen and the B screen (for example, when the electronic device 100 changes from the folded state to the unfolded state), the electronic device 100 can power off the C screen (the C screen is turned off) and power on the A screen and the B screen. In a case where the A screen and the B screen are in a power-on state, when the screen for display needs to be switched from the A screen and the B screen to the C screen (for example, when the electronic device 100 changes from the unfolded state to the folded state), the electronic device 100 can power off the A screen and the B screen (the folding screen is turned off) and power on the C screen.

[0081] Optionally, in a case where the C screen is in an off-screen state, when the electronic device 100 changes from the folded state to the unfolded state, the electronic device 100 can power on the A screen and the B screen. Or, in a case where the C screen is in an off-screen state, when the electronic device 100 changes from the folded state to the unfolded state, the A screen and the B screen of the electronic device 100 can remain in an off-screen state. In a case where the A screen and the B screen are in an off-screen state, when the electronic device 100 changes from the unfolded state to the folded state, the C screen of the electronic device 100 can remain in an off-screen state. If the electronic device 100 does not have a C screen, in the folded state, in response to a user operation of pressing the power key, the electronic device 100 can power on the folding screen.

[0082] In the embodiments of the present application, for the electronic device 100 shown in FIGS. 1A-1C, the inner screen (which can also be referred to as the main screen) can refer to the A screen and the B screen, and the outer screen can refer to the C screen.

[0083] The electronic device 100 shown in FIGS. 1A-1C can be referred to as a two-fold electronic device.

[0084] Taking the electronic device 100 as an example, the wallpaper setting method provided by the embodiments of the present application will be described below in combination with a series of user interfaces shown in FIGS. 2A-2I.

[0085] Taking that the electronic device 100 is in the folded state and the C screen is used for display as an example, referring to FIG. 2A, the electronic device 100 can display an exemplary user interface 210 in which an icon of an application (APP) is placed in a page, and the page can include icons of multiple applications (for example, an icon 211 of a settings application and the like). In response to an operation (for example, a click operation) of a user on the icon of the application, the electronic device 100 can open the application corresponding to the icon of the application.

[0086] Exemplarily, the electronic device 100 can detect an operation (for example, a click operation) of a user on the icon 211 of the settings application, and in response to the operation, the electronic device 100 can open the settings application and can display a user interface provided by the settings application, for example, an exemplary user interface 220 shown in FIG. 2B.

[0087] Referring to FIG. 2B, the user interface 220 can include one or more setting items (for example, a desktop and personalization setting item 221 and the like), and the desktop and personalization setting item 221 can be an interaction entrance between the electronic device 100 and the user when the wallpaper setting method provided by the embodiments of the present application is performed.

[0088] It should be noted that the wallpaper setting method provided by the embodiments of the present application can be implemented through the settings application, or can be implemented through other applications other than the settings application, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this. In the embodiments of the present application, the settings application is taken as an example for description.

[0089] Continuing to refer to FIG. 2B, the electronic device 100 can detect an operation (for example, a click operation) of a user on the desktop and personalization setting item 221, and in response to the operation, the electronic device 100 can display an exemplary user interface 230 shown in FIG. 2C.

[0090] Referring to FIG. 2C, the user interface 230 includes one or more options (for example, a theme option, a wallpaper option 231, a magazine lock screen option, an icon option and the like), and the wallpaper option 231 can trigger the electronic device 100 to display a user interface for wallpaper setting, so that the user can set the wallpaper.

[0091] Continuing to refer to FIG. 2C, the electronic device 100 can detect an operation (for example, a click operation) of a user on the wallpaper option 231, and in response to the operation, the electronic device 100 can display an exemplary user interface 240 shown in FIG. 2D, which can be used for setting the wallpaper.

[0092] Referring to FIG. 2D, it can be seen that the wallpaper currently applied by the electronic device 100 is wallpaper 241, and the electronic device 100 can also support the user selecting a preset wallpaper (for example, the recommended wallpaper shown in FIG. 2D) in the electronic device 100, or various photos / pictures in a photo gallery, or more online wallpapers as the wallpaper.

[0093] Taking the wallpaper 241 as an example, the electronic device 100 can detect an operation (for example, a click operation) of the user on the wallpaper 241, and in response to the operation, the electronic device 100 can display the user interface 250 shown in the example of FIG. 2E, which can be used for the user to preview the wallpaper 241.

[0094] Referring to FIG. 2E, the user interface 250 can include a preview box 251, a page switching option 252, a blur option 253, and an application option 254, wherein the preview box 251 can be used to preview the effect of the electronic device 100 applying the wallpaper 241 in the unfolded state (i.e., on the inner screen), the page switching option 252 can be used to switch the preview page, which can be the preview page when the wallpaper 241 is applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop, the blur option 253 can be used to perform a blur process on the wallpaper 241, and the application option 254 can be used to apply the wallpaper 241 (for example, to apply the wallpaper 241 to the lock screen interface and / or the desktop).

[0095] As can be seen from FIG. 2E, the current preview page is the preview page when the wallpaper 241 is applied to the lock screen interface in the folded state (i.e., on the outer screen) of the electronic device 100. In the embodiments of the present application, the user can trigger the electronic device 100 to display the preview page when the wallpaper 241 is applied to the desktop in the folded state by operating the page switching option 252.

[0096] Continuing to refer to FIG. 2E, it can be seen that the inner screen and the outer screen of the electronic device 100 share a set of wallpaper resources, and when the wallpaper of the outer screen is changed, the wallpaper of the inner screen will also be changed, and when the wallpaper of the inner screen is changed, the wallpaper of the outer screen will also be changed, and it is not possible to support the user to change the wallpaper of the outer screen or the wallpaper of the inner screen separately.

[0097] Continuing to refer to FIG. 2E, the electronic device 100 can support the user setting the framing range of the wallpaper (i.e., adjusting the display area of the wallpaper) through a specific operation, which can include but is not limited to a left swipe operation, a right swipe operation, a two-finger separation operation, and a two-finger pinch operation. In the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device 100 supports the user setting the framing range of the wallpaper of the outer screen and the framing range of the wallpaper of the inner screen simultaneously, that is, when the framing range of the wallpaper of the outer screen is changed, the framing range of the wallpaper of the inner screen will also be changed, and when the framing range of the wallpaper of the inner screen is changed, the framing range of the wallpaper of the outer screen will also be changed, and it is not possible to support the user to set the framing range of the wallpaper of the outer screen and the framing range of the wallpaper of the inner screen separately.

[0098] With continued reference to FIG. 2E, the electronic device 100 can support the user to apply the wallpaper 241 to the lock screen interface and / or the desktop. Illustratively, the electronic device 100 can detect an operation (e.g., a tap operation) of the user on the apply option 254, and in response to the operation, the electronic device 100 can display a window 255 as shown in FIG. 2F.

[0099] Referring to FIG. 2F, the window 255 can include a set as lock screen option, a set as desktop option, and a set simultaneously option, where the set as lock screen option can be used to apply the wallpaper 241 to the lock screen interface, the set as desktop option can be used to apply the wallpaper 241 to the desktop, and the set simultaneously option can be used to apply the wallpaper 241 to the lock screen interface and the desktop. The user can click the corresponding option to trigger the electronic device 100 to apply the wallpaper 241 to the lock screen interface of the outer screen and the inner screen, or the desktop, or the lock screen interface and the desktop.

[0100] It should be noted that the above-mentioned manner of triggering the display of the user interface shown in FIG. 2D can be various, and the above-mentioned is only taken as an example of the manners shown in FIGS. 2A-2C for illustration, and should not constitute a limitation on the present application. In some examples, it can also be other manners, for example, the manners shown in FIGS. 2G-2H. Referring to FIG. 2G, the electronic device 100 can detect an operation of the user double-finger pinching on the user interface 210, and in response to the operation, the electronic device 100 can display a user interface 260 as shown in FIG. 2H. Referring to FIG. 2H, the user interface 260 can include a plurality of options (e.g., a wallpaper option 261, a service card option, a desktop setting option, etc.), and the electronic device 100 can detect an operation (e.g., a tap operation) of the user on the wallpaper option 261, and in response to the operation, the electronic device 100 can display the user interface 240 as shown in FIG. 2D.

[0101] It can be understood that the user interfaces shown in FIGS. 2A-2H are all described by taking the display on the C screen when the electronic device 100 is in the folded state as an example. It is easy to understand that the manner of displaying the user interfaces shown in FIGS. 2A-2H on the A screen and the B screen when the electronic device 100 is in the unfolded state is similar, and will not be described here. Only the user interface shown in FIG. 2E is different in the folded state and the unfolded state. Referring to FIG. 2I, in the unfolded state, the user interface 270 can include a preview box 271, a page switching option 272, a virtualization option 273, and an application option 274. The preview box 271 can be used to preview the effect of applying the wallpaper 241 to the electronic device 100 in the folded state (i.e., on the outer screen), the page switching option 272 can be used to switch the preview page, which can be a preview page when the wallpaper 241 is applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop, the virtualization option 273 can be used to perform virtualization processing on the wallpaper 241, and the application option 274 can be used to apply the wallpaper 241 (for example, to apply the wallpaper 241 to the lock screen interface and / or the desktop). As can be seen, unlike the foregoing FIG. 2E, the current preview page is a preview page when the wallpaper 241 is applied to the lock screen interface of the electronic device 100 in the unfolded state (i.e., on the inner screen), and the effect displayed in the preview box 271 is the effect of applying the wallpaper 241 to the electronic device 100 in the folded state (i.e., on the outer screen).

[0102] As can be seen from the embodiments shown in FIGS. 2A-2I, the outer screen and the inner screen of the electronic device 100 can only share one set of wallpaper resources, and changing the wallpaper of the outer screen will affect the inner screen, and changing the wallpaper of the inner screen will also affect the outer screen. Moreover, the electronic device 100 does not support setting the range of the viewfinder for the wallpaper of the outer screen and the inner screen separately, and the flexibility of setting the wallpaper is poor.

[0103] Based on the above problems, the embodiments of the present application provide another wallpaper setting method. The electronic device 100 can support setting the same wallpaper for the outer screen and the inner screen, or different wallpapers. In the case of setting the same wallpaper for the outer screen and the inner screen, the electronic device 100 can also support setting the range of the viewfinder for the wallpaper of the outer screen and the inner screen separately.

[0104] Again taking the electronic device 100 as a two-fold electronic device as an example, the following will be described in conjunction with a series of user interfaces shown in FIGS. 3A-3D and FIGS. 4A-4J.

[0105] The user interfaces shown in FIGS. 3A-3D can be user interfaces involved in the case of setting the same wallpaper for the outer screen and the inner screen of the electronic device 100.

The user can click the corresponding option to trigger the electronic device 100 to apply the wallpaper to the lock screen interface of the outer screen and the inner screen, or the desktop, or the lock screen interface and the desktop.

[0122] FIGS. 4A-4J show the user interface when the electronic device 100 sets different wallpapers for the outer screen and the inner screen.

[0123] 1, the electronic device 100 is in the folded state, and the C screen is displayed

[0124] Referring to FIG. 4A, the user interface 410 shown in FIG. 4A can be displayed by the electronic device 100 in response to the user's operation on the wallpaper option 231 (or the wallpaper option 261 shown in FIG. 2H) in the folded state, where the wallpaper 411 is currently applied by the electronic device 100, and the wallpaper 411 is applied to both the outer screen and the inner screen. If the user wants to set different wallpapers for the outer screen and the inner screen, the user can select a wallpaper different from the wallpaper 411, which can be a preset wallpaper (e.g., the recommended wallpaper shown in FIG. 4A), a photo / picture in the photo gallery, or more online wallpapers, without any limitation in the embodiments of the present application.

[0125] Referring back to FIG. 4A, for example, the user selects the wallpaper 412 included in the recommended wallpaper, the electronic device 100 can detect the user's operation (e.g., a click operation) on the wallpaper 412, and in response to the operation, the electronic device 100 can display the user interface 420 shown in FIG. 4B, which can be used by the user to preview the effect of the wallpaper 412 applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the folded state. The user interface 420 can include the identifier 421, the identifier 422, the option 423, and the application option 424, where the identifier 421 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to display a preview page of the wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the folded state, the identifier 422 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to display a preview page of the wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the unfolded state, the option 423 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to set the wallpaper only in the single-screen state (i.e., to set the wallpaper of the outer screen only), and the application option 424 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to apply the wallpaper (e.g., to the lock screen interface and / or the desktop).

[0126] Referring to FIG. 4B, if the user wants to apply the wallpaper 412 only to the outer screen, the electronic device 100 can detect the user's operation (e.g., a click operation) on the option 423, and in response to the operation, referring to FIG. 4C, the electronic device 100 can set the option 423 in the selected state, and further, the electronic device 100 can detect the user's operation (e.g., a click operation) on the application option 424, and in response to the operation, the electronic device 100 can display the window 255 shown in FIG. 2F. The user can click the corresponding option to trigger the electronic device 100 to apply the wallpaper to the lock screen interface of the outer screen, or the desktop, or the lock screen interface and the desktop.

[0127] With continued reference to FIG. 4B, assuming that the user only wants to apply the wallpaper 412 to the inner screen, the electronic device 100 can detect an operation (e.g., a tap operation) of the user on the icon 422, and in response to the operation, the electronic device 100 can display the user interface 430 shown in the example of FIG. 4D, which can be used for the user to preview the effect of the wallpaper 412 when applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the unfolded state. Unlike the aforementioned FIG. 4B, the user interface 430 can include an option 431, which can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to set the wallpaper only in the dual-screen state (i.e., to set the wallpaper of the inner screen only). The electronic device 100 can detect an operation (e.g., a tap operation) of the user on the option 431, and in response to the operation, with reference to FIG. 4E, the electronic device 100 can put the option 431 in the checked state, and further, the electronic device 100 can detect an operation (e.g., a tap operation) of the user on the apply option 432, and in response to the operation, the electronic device 100 can display the window 255 shown in the aforementioned FIG. 2F. The user can tap the corresponding option to trigger the electronic device 100 to apply the wallpaper to the lock screen interface of the inner screen, or to the desktop, or to both the lock screen interface and the desktop.

[0128] As can be seen from FIGS. 4B-4E, unlike the aforementioned FIGS. 3A and 3B, the options for separately setting the wallpaper of the outer screen and the wallpaper of the inner screen (i.e., the aforementioned option 423 and the aforementioned option 431) are displayed in FIGS. 4B-4E. In this way, the electronic device 100 can support the user to separately set the wallpaper of the outer screen and the wallpaper of the inner screen, thereby providing the user with more personalized experience.

[0129] It is easy to understand that, with reference to FIG. 4B, if the electronic device 100 detects an operation (e.g., a tap operation) of the user on the apply option 424 while the option 423 is in the unchecked state, the electronic device 100 can apply the wallpaper 412 to both the outer screen and the inner screen. Similarly, with reference to FIG. 4D, if the electronic device 100 detects an operation (e.g., a tap operation) of the user on the apply option 432 while the option 431 is in the unchecked state, the electronic device 100 can apply the wallpaper 412 to both the outer screen and the inner screen.

[0130] Optionally, with reference to FIG. 4C, while the option 423 is in the checked state, it can be considered that the user only wants to apply the wallpaper 412 to the outer screen, and thus the user can not care about the effect of the wallpaper 412 when applied to the inner screen, and the electronic device 100 can cancel displaying the icons 421 and 422 in the user interface shown in FIG. 4C.

[0131] Optionally, referring to FIG. 4E, when the option 431 is in the selected state, it can be considered that the user only wants to apply the wallpaper 412 to the inner screen, and thus the user can not care about the effect of the wallpaper 412 applied to the outer screen. Therefore, the electronic device 100 can cancel displaying the identifiers 421 and 422 in the user interface shown in FIG. 4E.

[0132] As can be seen from FIG. 4B, when the electronic device 100 is in the folded state, the identifier 421 can be in the selected state by default (i.e., the preview page of the wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the folded state is displayed by default), and the identifier 422 can be in the selected state after detecting the operation of the user on the identifier 422 (i.e., the preview page of the wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the unfolded state is displayed). In some examples, the identifier 422 can be in the selected state by default, and the identifier 421 can be in the selected state after detecting the operation of the user on the identifier 421.

[0133] In the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device 100 can support the user to set the range of the outer screen wallpaper and the range of the inner screen wallpaper by a specific operation. The specific operation can include but is not limited to a left swipe operation, a right swipe operation, a double-finger separation operation, and a double-finger pinch operation. For example, referring to FIGS. 4B and 4C, the user can set the range of the outer screen wallpaper by the specific operation when previewing the effect of the wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the folded state. For another example, referring to FIGS. 4D and 4E, the user can set the range of the inner screen wallpaper by the specific operation when previewing the effect of the wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the unfolded state.

[0134] 2. The electronic device 100 is in the unfolded state, and the A screen and the B screen are displayed

[0135] Referring to FIG. 4F, the user interface 440 shown in FIG. 4F can be displayed by the electronic device 100 when the user operates the wallpaper option 231 (or the wallpaper option 261 shown in FIG. 2H) in the unfolded state, for example. The currently applied wallpaper of the electronic device 100 is the wallpaper 441, and the wallpaper 441 is applied to the outer screen and the inner screen. If the user wants to set different wallpapers for the outer screen and the inner screen, the user can select a wallpaper different from the wallpaper 441. The wallpaper can be a preset wallpaper (e.g., the recommended wallpaper shown in FIG. 4F) in the electronic device 100, various photos / pictures in the photo gallery, or more online wallpapers, which are not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0136] With reference to FIG. 4F, illustratively, taking the example of the user selecting the wallpaper 442 included in the recommended wallpaper, the electronic device 100 can detect the operation (e.g., a click operation) of the user on the wallpaper 442, and in response to the operation, the electronic device 100 can display the user interface 450 shown in FIG. 4G illustratively, the user interface 450 can be used for the user to preview the effect of the wallpaper 442 applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the unfolded state, the user interface 450 can include the identifier 451, the identifier 452, the option 453, the application option 454, wherein the identifier 451 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to display a preview page of the wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the folded state, the identifier 452 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to display a preview page of the wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the unfolded state, the option 453 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to set the wallpaper only in the dual-screen state (i.e., to set the wallpaper of the inner screen only), and the application option 454 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to apply the wallpaper (e.g., to apply the wallpaper to the lock screen interface and / or the desktop).

[0137] With reference to FIG. 4G, assuming that the user only wants to apply the wallpaper 442 to the inner screen, the electronic device 100 can detect the operation (e.g., a click operation) of the user on the option 453, and in response to the operation, with reference to FIG. 4H, the electronic device 100 can place the option 453 in a checked state, and further, the electronic device 100 can detect the operation (e.g., a click operation) of the user on the application option 454, and in response to the operation, the electronic device 100 can display the window 255 shown in FIG. 2F. The user can click the corresponding option to trigger the electronic device 100 to apply the wallpaper to the lock screen interface of the inner screen, or to the desktop, or to the lock screen interface and the desktop.

[0138] With continued reference to FIG. 4G, assume that the user only wants to apply the wallpaper 442 to the outer screen, then the electronic device 100 can detect the user’s operation (e.g., a tap operation) on the icon 451, and in response to the operation, the electronic device 100 can display the user interface 460 shown in the example of FIG. 4I, which can be used for the user to preview the effect of applying the wallpaper 442 to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the folded state. Unlike the aforementioned FIG. 4G, the user interface 460 can include an option 461, which can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to set the wallpaper in the single-screen state only (i.e., to set the wallpaper of the outer screen only). The electronic device 100 can detect the user’s operation (e.g., a tap operation) on the option 461, and in response to the operation, with reference to FIG. 4J, the electronic device 100 can put the option 461 in the checked state, and further, the electronic device 100 can detect the user’s operation (e.g., a tap operation) on the apply option 462, and in response to the operation, the electronic device 100 can display the window 255 shown in the aforementioned FIG. 2F. The user can tap the corresponding option to trigger the electronic device 100 to apply the wallpaper to the lock screen interface of the outer screen, or to the desktop, or to both the lock screen interface and the desktop.

[0139] As can be seen from FIGS. 4G-4J, unlike the aforementioned FIGS. 3C and 3D, the options for separately setting the wallpaper of the outer and inner screens and the wallpaper of the outer screen (i.e., the aforementioned option 453 and the aforementioned option 461) are displayed in FIGS. 4G-4J. In this way, the electronic device 100 can support the user to separately set the wallpaper of the inner screen and the wallpaper of the outer screen, thereby providing the user with more personalized experience.

[0140] It is easy to understand that, with reference to FIG. 4G, if the electronic device 100 detects the user’s operation (e.g., a tap operation) on the apply option 454 while the option 453 is in the unchecked state, then the electronic device 100 can apply the wallpaper 442 to both the outer screen and the inner screen. Similarly, with reference to FIG. 4I, if the electronic device 100 detects the user’s operation (e.g., a tap operation) on the apply option 462 while the option 461 is in the unchecked state, then the electronic device 100 can apply the wallpaper 442 to both the outer screen and the inner screen.

[0141] Optionally, with reference to FIG. 4H, while the option 453 is in the checked state, it can be considered that the user only wants to apply the wallpaper 442 to the inner screen, and therefore, the user can not be interested in the effect of applying the wallpaper 442 to the inner screen, and the electronic device 100 can cancel displaying the icon 451 and the icon 452 in the user interface shown in FIG. 4H.

[0142] Optionally, referring to FIG. 4J, when the option 461 is in the selected state, it can be considered that the user only wants to apply the wallpaper 442 to the outer screen, and thus the user can not care about the effect of the wallpaper 442 applied to the inner screen. Therefore, the electronic device 100 can cancel displaying the identifiers 451 and 452 in the user interface shown in FIG. 4J.

[0143] As can be seen from FIG. 4G, when the electronic device 100 is in the unfolded state, the identifier 452 can be in the selected state by default (i.e., the preview page of the wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the unfolded state is displayed by default), and the identifier 451 can be placed in the selected state after detecting the operation of the user on the identifier 451 (i.e., the preview page of the wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the folded state is displayed). In some examples, the identifier 451 can be in the selected state by default, and the identifier 452 can be placed in the selected state after detecting the operation of the user on the identifier 452.

[0144] In the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device 100 can support the user to separately set the framing range of the outer screen wallpaper and the framing range of the inner screen wallpaper through a specific operation, which can include but is not limited to a left swipe operation, a right swipe operation, a double-finger separation operation, and a double-finger pinch operation. For example, referring to FIGS. 4G and 4H, the user can set the framing range of the inner screen wallpaper by a specific operation when previewing the effect of the wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the unfolded state. For another example, referring to FIGS. 4I and 4J, the user can set the framing range of the outer screen wallpaper by a specific operation when previewing the effect of the wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the folded state.

[0145] As can be seen from the embodiments shown in FIGS. 4A-4J, when setting different wallpapers for the outer screen and the inner screen of the electronic device 100, the user needs to first select an unapplied wallpaper in the wallpaper selection interface (such as the interface shown in FIG. 4A or FIG. 4F), so as to trigger the electronic device to display a wallpaper preview interface (such as the interface shown in FIG. 4B or FIG. 4G), and further, the user needs to place the screen selection option (such as the option 423 shown in FIG. 4B or the option 453 shown in FIG. 4G) in the wallpaper preview interface in the selected state, and perform the operation of applying the wallpaper. The whole process requires the user to perform complex operations, and the efficiency is low, and the user experience is poor.

[0146] Based on the above problems, the embodiments of the present application provide another wallpaper setting method, which can support the user to set different wallpapers for the outer screen and the inner screen through a more simplified operation, and improve the user experience.

[0147] Similarly, taking the electronic device 100 as a two-fold electronic device as an example, the following will be described in conjunction with a series of user interfaces shown in FIGS. 5A-5H.

[0148] 1、The electronic device 100 is in the unfolded state, and the A screen and the B screen display

[0149] Referring to FIG. 5A, the user interface 510 shown in FIG. 5A can be displayed by the electronic device 100 in response to the user operating the wallpaper 241 shown in FIG. 2D in the unfolded state, the current wallpaper applied by the electronic device 100 is the wallpaper 241, and the wallpaper 241 is applied to both the outer screen and the inner screen.

[0150] In some examples, the user interface 510 shown in FIG. 5A can also be displayed by the electronic device 100 in response to the user operating the wallpaper 442 shown in FIG. 4F in the unfolded state, in which case the wallpaper displayed in the user interface 510 shown in FIG. 5A can be the wallpaper 442 with the preview effect shown in FIG. 4G, and the wallpaper displayed in the user interface 520 shown in FIG. 5B can be the wallpaper 442 with the preview effect shown in FIG. 4I.

[0151] Continuing to refer to FIG. 5A, the user interface 510 can include an identifier 511, an identifier 512, an application option 513, a blurring option 514, a page switching option 515, a cancel option 516, and a clock component 517. The identifier 511 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to display a preview page of the wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the folded state. The identifier 512 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to display a preview page of the wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the unfolded state. The application option 513 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to apply the wallpaper (e.g., to the lock screen interface and / or the desktop). The blurring option 514 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to perform blurring processing on the wallpaper. The page switching option 515 can be used to switch the preview page. The cancel option 516 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to return to the previous user interface of the current user interface.

[0152] Continuing to refer to FIG. 5A, it can be seen that the identifier 512 is in a selected state. The "identifier 512 in the selected state" can indicate that the current preview page is a preview page of the wallpaper applied by the electronic device 100 in the unfolded state. As can be seen from FIG. 5A, the current preview page is a preview page of the wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface by the electronic device 100 in the unfolded state (i.e., on the inner screen). In the embodiments of the present application, the user can trigger the electronic device 100 to display a preview page of the wallpaper applied to the desktop in the unfolded state by operating the page switching option 515.

[0153] With reference back to FIG. 5A, the electronic device 100 can detect an operation (e.g., a click operation) of the user on the identifier 511, and in response to the operation, with reference to FIG. 5B, the electronic device 100 can place the identifier 511 in a selected state, and can display a user interface 520, which can include an application option 521, a blur option 522, a page switching option 523, a cancel option 524, and a wallpaper replacement option 525, where the application option 521 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to apply the wallpaper (e.g., to the lock screen interface and / or the desktop), the blur option 522 can be used to perform a blur process on the wallpaper, the page switching option 523 can be used to switch the preview page, the cancel option 524 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to return to a previous user interface that displays the current user interface, and the wallpaper replacement option 525 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to replace the wallpaper of the outer screen.

[0154] With reference back to FIG. 5B, it can be seen that the identifier 511 is in the selected state, which can indicate that the current preview page is a preview page when the electronic device 100 applies the wallpaper in the folded state (i.e., on the outer screen) to the lock screen interface. As can be seen from FIG. 5B, the current preview page is a preview page when the electronic device 100 applies the wallpaper in the folded state (i.e., on the outer screen) to the desktop. In embodiments of the present application, the user can trigger the electronic device 100 to display a preview page when the electronic device 100 applies the wallpaper in the folded state to the desktop by operating the page switching option 523.

[0155] As can be seen from FIG. 5A, when the electronic device 100 is in the unfolded state, the identifier 512 can be placed in the selected state by default (i.e., the electronic device 100 is triggered to display a preview page when the electronic device 100 applies the wallpaper in the unfolded state to the lock screen interface or the desktop by default), and after detecting the operation of the user on the identifier 511, the identifier 511 can be placed in the selected state (i.e., the electronic device 100 is triggered to display a preview page when the electronic device 100 applies the wallpaper in the folded state to the lock screen interface or the desktop). In some examples, the identifier 511 can be placed in the selected state by default, and after detecting the operation of the user on the identifier 512, the identifier 512 can be placed in the selected state.

[0156] With reference back to FIG. 5A and FIG. 5B, when the electronic device 100 is in the unfolded state and the inner screen (i.e., the A screen and the B screen) is displayed, the electronic device 100 can not only support the user to preview the effect when the wallpaper is applied to the inner screen and the outer screen on the inner screen, but also support the user to set different wallpapers for the inner screen and the outer screen.

[0157] Possible implementation manner one,

[0158] The electronic device 100 supports the user to set different wallpapers for the inner screen and the outer screen, which can specifically include that the electronic device 100 supports the user to replace the wallpaper of the outer screen.

[0159] For example, with reference back to FIG. 5B, the electronic device 100 can detect an operation (e.g., a tapping operation) of the user on the wallpaper replacement option 525, and in response to the operation, the electronic device 100 can pull up a wallpaper gallery and display a window 530 as shown in FIG. 5C, which can include one or more wallpapers (e.g., a wallpaper 531, a wallpaper 532, etc.), which can be preset wallpapers in the electronic device 100, and can further include an option 533, which can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to open a gallery to support the user to select a photo / picture from the gallery as a wallpaper.

[0160] As can be seen from the window 530, the currently applied wallpaper is the wallpaper 531, and the user can select a wallpaper different from the wallpaper 531. For example, the user selects the wallpaper 532, and the electronic device 100 can detect an operation (e.g., a tapping operation) of the user on the wallpaper 532, and in response to the operation, with reference to FIG. 5D, the electronic device 100 can start to display in the user interface 520 an effect of the wallpaper 532 applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the folded state, while canceling the display of the effect of the wallpaper 531 applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the folded state as shown in FIG. 5B.

[0161] With reference back to FIG. 5D, the electronic device 100 can detect an operation (e.g., a tapping operation) of the user on the apply option 521, and in response to the operation, the electronic device 100 can display a window 540 as shown in FIG. 5E or FIG. 5F.

[0162] With reference to FIG. 5E, the window 540 can include an identifier 541 and an identifier 542, where the identifier 541 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to display an effect of the wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface and the desktop in the folded state, and the identifier 542 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to display an effect of the wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface and the desktop in the unfolded state.

[0163] As can be seen from FIG. 5E, the identifier 542 is in a selected state, and in this case, the electronic device 100 displays the effect of the wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface and the desktop in the unfolded state, which can specifically be that the electronic device 100 displays a preview frame 543 and a preview frame 544 in the window 540, where the preview frame 543 can be used to display the effect of the wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface in the unfolded state, and the preview frame 544 can be used to display the effect of the wallpaper applied to the desktop in the unfolded state. As can be seen, the currently selected wallpaper of the inner screen is the wallpaper 531 as shown in FIG. 5C.

[0164] The window 540 can further include an option 543a and an option 544a. The option 543a in the selected state can be used to indicate that the user wants to apply the wallpaper displayed in the current preview frame 543 to the lock screen interface. The option 544a in the selected state can be used to indicate that the user wants to apply the wallpaper displayed in the current preview frame 544 to the desktop.

[0165] The window 540 can further include a confirm option 545 and a cancel option 546. The confirm option 545 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to apply the wallpaper. The cancel option 546 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to cancel the display of the window 540.

[0166] Continuing to refer to FIG. 5E, the electronic device 100 can detect an operation (for example, a click operation) of the user on the identifier 541. In response to the operation, referring to FIG. 5F, the electronic device 100 can place the identifier 541 in the selected state, and display a preview frame 547 and a preview frame 548 in the window 540. The preview frame 547 can be used to display the effect of the wallpaper in the folded state applied to the lock screen interface. The preview frame 548 can be used to display the effect of the wallpaper in the folded state applied to the desktop. As can be seen, the wallpaper of the outer screen currently selected by the user is the wallpaper 532 shown in FIG. 5C, that is, the user selects the wallpaper of the outer screen to be replaced.

[0167] The window 540 can further include an option 547a and an option 548a. The option 547a in the selected state can be used to indicate that the user wants to apply the wallpaper displayed in the current preview frame 547 to the lock screen interface. The option 548a in the selected state can be used to indicate that the user wants to apply the wallpaper displayed in the current preview frame 548 to the desktop.

[0168] Continuing to refer to FIG. 5E or FIG. 5F, the electronic device 100 can detect an operation (for example, a click operation) of the user on the confirm option 545. In response to the operation, the electronic device 100 can apply the wallpaper. The electronic device 100 applying the wallpaper can be determined according to setting information, which is set by the user, and can include but is not limited to: the wallpaper selected by the user, the screen (for example, the inner screen or the outer screen) to which the wallpaper is applied, the interface (for example, the lock screen interface or the desktop) to which the wallpaper is applied, and the editing operation data (for example, clock component editing, service card addition, adding / removing blur, adjusting the display area of the wallpaper, and the like) for the wallpaper. The specific process of the editing operation will be described in detail in subsequent embodiments, which will not be expanded here. Exemplarily, as shown in FIG. 5E and FIG. 5F, the electronic device 100 applying the wallpaper can specifically include: the electronic device 100 applying the wallpaper with the preview effect shown in FIG. 5E to the lock screen interface and the desktop of the outer screen, and the electronic device 100 applying the wallpaper with the preview effect shown in FIG. 5F to the lock screen interface and the desktop of the inner screen.

[0169] It is easy to understand that, taking the inner screen as an example, if the inner screen does not change the wallpaper and no editing operation is performed on the wallpaper, the electronic device 100 applying the wallpaper can specifically mean that the electronic device 100 applies the wallpaper to the inner screen, and it is easy to understand that the wallpaper is the same as the original wallpaper (i.e., the wallpaper applied to the inner screen before displaying FIG. 5A), and the effect seen by the user after the electronic device 100 applies the wallpaper is also unchanged; if the inner screen does not change the wallpaper but performs an editing operation on the wallpaper, the electronic device 100 applying the wallpaper can specifically mean that the electronic device 100 applies the wallpaper after the editing operation to the inner screen; if the inner screen changes the wallpaper but does not perform an editing operation on the wallpaper, the electronic device 100 applying the wallpaper can specifically mean that the electronic device 100 applies the changed wallpaper to the inner screen; if the inner screen changes the wallpaper and performs an editing operation on the changed wallpaper, the electronic device 100 applying the wallpaper can specifically mean that the electronic device 100 applies the changed and edited wallpaper to the inner screen.

[0170] It is easy to understand that, if any one or more of the options 543a, 544a, 547a, and 548a is not selected, the wallpaper of the preview effect shown in the preview box corresponding to the one or more unselected options will not be applied after the user performs an operation (e.g., a click operation) on the determination option 545. For example, if the option 543a is not selected, the lock screen interface of the inner screen will not apply the wallpaper of the preview effect shown in the preview box 543, but will still apply the original wallpaper (i.e., the wallpaper applied before displaying FIG. 5A), that is, if the option 543a is not selected, the electronic device 100 will not update the setting information of the wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface of the inner screen, and the original wallpaper will still be effective.

[0171] Possible implementation mode two,

[0172] The electronic device 100 supports the user to set different wallpapers for the inner screen and the outer screen, which can specifically include that the electronic device 100 supports the user to change the wallpaper of the inner screen.

[0173] In this case, the electronic device 100 can add a change wallpaper option 525 as shown in FIG. 5B to the user interface shown in FIG. 5A, and the user can click the option to trigger the electronic device 100 to change the wallpaper of the inner screen. The specific process is similar to the process of changing the wallpaper of the outer screen shown in FIGS. 5C-5F, and can be referred to the foregoing related description, which will not be repeated here.

[0174] It can be understood that the content displayed in the preview frame shown in FIG. 5E and FIG. 5F can be generated after the wallpaper changing operation and / or the editing operation (for example, the editing operation exemplarily shown in the following FIG. 6A-FIG. 6F) on the basis of FIG. 5A, or, the wallpaper changing operation and / or the editing operation (for example, the editing operation exemplarily shown in the following FIG. 6A-FIG. 6F) on the basis of FIG. 5B.

[0175] 2. The electronic device 100 is in the folded state, and the C screen displays

[0176] Referring to FIG. 5G, the user interface 550 exemplarily shown in FIG. 5G can be displayed by the electronic device 100 in response to the user operation on the wallpaper 241 shown in FIG. 2D in the folded state, the wallpaper currently applied by the electronic device 100 is the wallpaper 241, and the wallpaper 241 is applied to both the outer screen and the inner screen.

[0177] In some examples, the user interface 550 shown in the foregoing FIG. 5G can also be displayed by the electronic device 100 in response to the user operation on the wallpaper 412 shown in FIG. 4A in the folded state, in which case, the wallpaper displayed in the user interface 550 shown in the foregoing FIG. 5G can be the wallpaper 412 with the preview effect shown in FIG. 4B, and the wallpaper displayed in the user interface 560 shown in the following FIG. 5H can be the wallpaper 412 with the preview effect shown in FIG. 4D.

[0178] Continuing to refer to FIG. 5G, the user interface 550 can include an identifier 551, an identifier 552, an application option 553, a blurring option 554, a page switching option 555, and a cancel option 556, wherein the identifier 551 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to display a preview page in which the wallpaper is applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the folded state, the identifier 552 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to display a preview page in which the wallpaper is applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the unfolded state, the application option 553 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to apply the wallpaper (for example, to apply the wallpaper to the lock screen interface and / or the desktop), the blurring option 554 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to perform blurring processing on the wallpaper, the page switching option 555 can be used to switch the preview page, and the cancel option 556 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to return to the previous user interface of the current user interface.

[0179] With reference back to FIG. 5G, it can be seen that the identifier 551 is in the selected state, and the "identifier 551 is in the selected state" can indicate that the current preview page is a preview page when the wallpaper is applied to the lock screen interface in the folded state of the electronic device 100. As can be seen from FIG. 5G, the current preview page is a preview page when the wallpaper is applied to the lock screen interface in the folded state (i.e., on the outer screen) of the electronic device 100. In an embodiment of the present application, the user can trigger the electronic device 100 to display a preview page when the wallpaper is applied to the desktop in the folded state by operating the page switching option 555.

[0180] With reference back to FIG. 5G, the electronic device 100 can detect an operation (e.g., a click operation) of the user on the identifier 552, and in response to the operation, with reference to FIG. 5H, the electronic device 100 can place the identifier 552 in the selected state, and can display a user interface 560, which can include an application option 561, a blurring option 562, a page switching option 563, a cancel option 564, and a wallpaper replacement option 565, wherein the application option 561 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to apply the wallpaper (e.g., apply the wallpaper to the lock screen interface and / or the desktop), the blurring option 562 can be used to perform blurring processing on the wallpaper, the page switching option 563 can be used to switch the preview page, the cancel option 564 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to return to the previous user interface of the current user interface, and the wallpaper replacement option 565 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to replace the wallpaper of the outer screen.

[0181] With reference back to FIG. 5H, it can be seen that the identifier 552 is in the selected state, and the "identifier 552 is in the selected state" can indicate that the current preview page is a preview page when the wallpaper is applied in the unfolded state of the electronic device 100. As can be seen from FIG. 5H, the current preview page is a preview page when the wallpaper is applied to the lock screen interface in the unfolded state (i.e., on the inner screen) of the electronic device 100. In an embodiment of the present application, the user can trigger the electronic device 100 to display a preview page when the wallpaper is applied to the desktop in the unfolded state by operating the page switching option 563.

[0182] As can be seen from FIG. 5G, when the electronic device 100 is in the folded state, the identifier 551 can be placed in the selected state by default (i.e., the electronic device 100 is triggered to display a preview page when the wallpaper is applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the folded state by default), and after detecting the operation of the user on the identifier 552, the identifier 552 can be placed in the selected state (i.e., the electronic device 100 is triggered to display a preview page when the wallpaper is applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the unfolded state). In some examples, the identifier 552 can be placed in the selected state by default, and after detecting the operation of the user on the identifier 551, the identifier 551 can be placed in the selected state.

[0183] With reference to FIGS. 5G and 5H, in the case that the electronic device 100 is in the folded state and the outer screen (i.e., the C screen) is displaying, the electronic device 100 can not only support the user previewing the effect of the wallpaper on the inner screen and the outer screen, but also supporting the user setting different wallpapers for the inner screen and the outer screen.

[0184] Possible implementation manner one,

[0185] The electronic device 100 supports the user setting different wallpapers for the inner screen and the outer screen, which can specifically include that the electronic device 100 supports the user changing the wallpaper of the inner screen.

[0186] For example, with reference to FIG. 5H, the electronic device 100 can detect the user's operation (e.g., a click operation) on the wallpaper changing option 565, and in response to the operation, the electronic device 100 can pull up the wallpaper library and display the window 530 shown in FIG. 5C. The subsequent specific operation process is similar to the process of changing the wallpaper of the inner screen described above with reference to FIGS. 5C-5F, and can refer to the foregoing related description, which will not be repeated here.

[0187] Possible implementation manner two,

[0188] The electronic device 100 supports the user setting different wallpapers for the inner screen and the outer screen, which can specifically include that the electronic device 100 supports the user changing the wallpaper of the outer screen.

[0189] In this case, the electronic device 100 can increase the display of the wallpaper changing option 565 shown in FIG. 5H in the user interface shown in FIG. 5G, and the user can click the option to trigger the electronic device 100 to change the wallpaper of the outer screen. The specific process is similar to the process of changing the wallpaper of the outer screen described above with reference to FIGS. 5C-5F, and can refer to the foregoing related description, which will not be repeated here.

[0190] It is easy to understand that, since the size of the inner screen is usually larger than that of the outer screen, for the same wallpaper, the field of view of the inner screen wallpaper is usually larger than that of the outer screen wallpaper.

[0191] In the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device 100 can support the user setting the field of view of the outer screen wallpaper and the field of view of the inner screen wallpaper separately through a specific operation, which can include but is not limited to a left swipe operation, a right swipe operation, a two-finger separation operation, and a two-finger pinch operation. For example, with reference to FIGS. 5A and 5H, the user can set the field of view of the inner screen wallpaper through a specific operation when previewing the effect of the wallpaper on the lock screen interface or the desktop in the unfolded state. For another example, with reference to FIGS. 5B and 5G, the user can set the field of view of the outer screen wallpaper through a specific operation when previewing the effect of the wallpaper on the lock screen interface or the desktop in the folded state.

[0192] By implementing the method provided in the embodiments shown in FIGS. 5A-5H, for a two-fold electronic device, in the wallpaper setting process, in terms of previewing the wallpaper, the electronic device can support the user to directly preview the effect of the inner screen and the outer screen when applying a certain wallpaper on the inner screen when the electronic device is in the unfolded state without folding the screen, and the electronic device can support the user to directly preview the effect of the inner screen and the outer screen when applying a certain wallpaper on the outer screen when the electronic device is in the folded state without unfolding the screen; in terms of selecting the wallpaper, the electronic device can support the user to select different wallpapers for the inner screen and the outer screen, for example, when detecting that the user performs an operation of changing the wallpaper of a certain screen in the preview interface, the wallpaper library can be directly pulled up for the user to select the wallpaper without exiting the preview interface. In this way, the user operation can be simplified, which is convenient and efficient, and the wallpaper setting efficiency is improved. In addition, the electronic device can also support the user to select various types of wallpapers (such as static wallpapers, dynamic wallpapers), and further, the wallpaper composition can be automatically optimized based on an aesthetic composition algorithm, and the display of the depth-of-field effect is optimized. In this way, the user can be provided with more wallpaper selection experience and better visual experience.

[0193] In the foregoing embodiments shown in FIGS. 2A-2I, 3A-3D, and 4A-4J, the electronic device 100 can only support the user to perform simple operations such as previewing and blurring the wallpaper, and cannot support the user to perform rich personalized editing operations on the wallpaper, which cannot meet the personalized needs of the user and brings poor user experience.

[0194] Based on the above problems, the embodiments of the present application provide another wallpaper setting method. In the wallpaper setting process, for the lock screen wallpaper (i.e., the wallpaper of the lock screen interface), the electronic device 100 can support the user to perform personalized editing operations on the lock screen wallpaper, for example, the clock component displayed on the lock screen wallpaper can be edited (for example, editing the layout, style, font style, font color, display content, etc. of the clock component), and for example, a service card can be added to the lock screen wallpaper, and the like. In this way, the user can be provided with personalized experience.

[0195] Similarly, taking the electronic device 100 as an example of a two-fold electronic device, the following will be described in conjunction with a series of user interfaces shown in FIGS. 6A-6F.

[0196] 1. Editing the clock component displayed on the lock screen wallpaper

[0197] Taking the electronic device 100 in the unfolded state as an example, referring to FIG. 5A, the clock component for editing operation is clock component 517, for example, the electronic device 100 can detect the operation (for example, long press operation) of the user on the clock component 517, and in response to the operation, referring to FIG. 6A, the electronic device 100 can place the clock component 517 in an editable state. Further, the electronic device 100 can detect the operation (for example, click operation) of the user on the clock component 517 in the editable state, and in response to the operation, the electronic device 100 can display the editing bar 620 shown in FIG. 6B. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application do not limit the operation of triggering the clock component to be in the editable state and triggering the display of the editing bar 620.

[0198] Referring to FIG. 6B, the editing bar 620 can include one or more editing options (for example, option 621, option 622, option 623, option 624), wherein the option 621 can be used to edit the style of the clock component, the option 622 can be used to edit the font style of the clock component, the option 623 can be used to edit the font color of the clock component, and the option 624 can be used to edit the display content (for example, date, lunar calendar, etc.), lock screen signature, etc.

[0199] (1) Edit the style of the clock component

[0200] Continuing to refer to FIG. 6B, when the option 621 is in the selected state, the electronic device 100 can display a window 621a, and the window 621a can include one or more options, each option corresponding to a style of the clock component. It can be seen that the style corresponding to the currently selected option is the current application style of the clock component. The user can click other unselected options to trigger the electronic device 100 to change the style of the clock component to the style corresponding to the option, and display the clock component applying the style.

[0201] (2) Edit the font style of the clock component

[0202] Continuing to refer to FIG. 6B, the electronic device 100 can detect the operation (for example, click operation) of the user on the option 622, and in response to the operation, referring to FIG. 6C, the electronic device 100 can display a window 622a, and the window 622a can include one or more options, each option corresponding to a font style of the clock component. It can be seen that the font style corresponding to the currently selected option is the current application font style of the clock component. The user can click other unselected options to trigger the electronic device 100 to change the font style of the clock component to the font style corresponding to the option, and display the clock component applying the font style.

[0203] (3) Edit the font color of the clock component

[0204] With reference back to FIG. 6B, the electronic device 100 can detect an operation (e.g., a click operation) of the user on the option 623, and in response to the operation, with reference to FIG. 6D, the electronic device 100 can display a window 623a, which can include one or more options, each of which corresponds to a font color of the clock component. As can be seen, the currently selected option corresponds to the font color currently applied to the clock component, and the user can click on other unselected options to trigger the electronic device 100 to change the font color of the clock component to the font color corresponding to the option, and display the clock component when the font color is applied.

[0205] (4) editing the display content (e.g., date, lunar calendar, etc.) of the clock component, the lock screen signature

[0206] With reference back to FIG. 6B, the electronic device 100 can detect an operation (e.g., a click operation) of the user on the option 624, and in response to the operation, with reference to FIG. 6E, the electronic device 100 can display a window 624a, which can include options for editing the display content of the clock component (e.g., a display date option, a display lunar calendar option), wherein the display date option can be used to trigger the clock component to display / hide date information, and the display lunar calendar option can be used to trigger the clock component to display / hide lunar calendar information. As can be seen, since the current clock component displays date information (e.g., May 19, Thursday) and lunar calendar information (e.g., April 19), the display date option and the display lunar calendar option can be in a selected state. It is easy to understand that if the user wants to hide the date information on the clock component, the user can click on the display date option to trigger the electronic device 100 to place the option in an unselected state; if the user wants to hide the lunar calendar information on the clock component, the user can click on the display lunar calendar option to trigger the electronic device 100 to place the option in an unselected state.

[0207] With reference back to FIG. 6E, the window 624a can also include an option for editing the lock screen signature, and the user can click on the lock screen signature option to trigger the electronic device 100 to place the option in a selected state. Further, the electronic device 100 can support the user to input text in the lock screen signature input box to generate the lock screen signature, and after the lock screen signature is generated, the electronic device 100 can display the lock screen signature on the lock screen wallpaper.

[0208] In the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device 100 can also support the user to edit the layout of the clock component (i.e., the display position of the clock component on the screen), and the user can change the layout of the clock component through a drag operation, i.e., the clock component can be dragged from one position to another position for display.

[0209] It is easy to understand that the edited clock component can be displayed in the preview page after the editing operation on the clock component.

[0210] It is to be understood that the above is described by taking the editing operation on the clock component on the lock screen wallpaper of the inner screen as an example, and the editing operation on the clock component on the lock screen wallpaper of the outer screen is similar, and details are not repeated here.

[0211] 2. Adding a service card on the lock screen wallpaper

[0212] Referring to FIG. 6A, when the clock component 517 is placed in an editable state, the electronic device 100 can also display an identifier 611, and the electronic device 100 can detect an operation (e.g., a click operation) of the user on the identifier 611. In response to the operation, the electronic device 100 can display a window 630 as shown in the example of FIG. 6F.

[0213] Referring to FIG. 6F, the window 630 can include one or more service cards provided by an application, and the electronic device 100 can support the user to select one of the service cards to add it to the lock screen interface for display.

[0214] It is easy to understand that the service card can be displayed in the preview page after the service card is added.

[0215] The size of the service card can be 2*1, 1*1, etc., and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this.

[0216] In some examples, the display style (e.g., display size) of the service card can change with the style of the clock component. For example, the display size of the service card can match the size of the clock component in the current style. In this way, the interface display effect can be more neat and beautiful.

[0217] It is to be understood that the above is described by taking the addition of the service card on the lock screen wallpaper of the inner screen as an example, and the addition of the service card on the lock screen wallpaper of the outer screen is similar, and details are not repeated here.

[0218] It should be noted that the above only takes two folding electronic devices as an example to describe the wallpaper setting method provided by the embodiments of the present application, which is not limited to the above two folding electronic devices, and the wallpaper setting method provided by the embodiments of the present application is also applicable to three folding electronic devices.

[0219] First, the three folding electronic device will be introduced.

[0220] FIGS. 7A-7B exemplarily show a three folding electronic device provided by the embodiments of the present application.

[0221] As shown in FIG. 7A, the electronic device 100 can be a tri-fold electronic device, and the electronic device 100 can include a screen 120. The screen 120 can be bendable at positions 131A, 131B. The screen 120 can include the following screen portions: a screen 120A (may also be referred to as an A screen), a screen 120B (may also be referred to as a B screen), and a screen 120C (may also be referred to as a C screen). The sizes of the screen portions can be the same. The screen 120A, the screen 120B, and the screen 120C can be three independent screens, where the screen 120A is connected to the screen 120B by a folding component 1 and can rotate around the folding component 1 at the position 131A. The screen 120B is connected to the screen 120C by a folding component 2 and can rotate around the folding component 2 at the position 131B. The folding component 1 and the folding component 2 can be, for example, a rotating shaft, a hinge, or the like. The screen 120 can also be a flexible screen as a whole, and the screen 120A, the screen 120B, and the screen 120C can be portions of the flexible screen as a whole.

[0222] One or more screen portions (for example, the screen 120C) can also be provided with a front camera 112, an earpiece 113, a proximity light sensor (not shown), and the like.

[0223] As shown in FIG. 7B, the electronic device 100 can also include a back cover 110. The back cover 110 is used to support the screen 120 and can fold along with the folding of the screen 120. The back cover 110 can include the following housing portions: a housing 110A, a housing 110B, and a housing 110C. The housing 110A constitutes a non-display surface of the screen 120A, the housing 110B constitutes a non-display surface of the screen 120B, and the housing 110C constitutes a non-display surface of the screen 120C.

[0224] The housing 110A, the housing 110B, and the housing 110C can be independent housings or portions of a housing as a whole. When the housing 110A, the housing 110B, and the housing 110C are the latter, the housing as a whole can be a housing that is bendable at the positions 131A, 131B, for example, a flexible housing. Whether the back cover 110 is a flexible housing as a whole or is composed of independent housings can be adapted to whether the screen 120 is a flexible screen as a whole or is composed of independent screens. When the screen 120 is a flexible screen as a whole, the back cover 110 can correspondingly be a flexible housing as a whole. When the screen 120A, the screen 120B, and the screen 120C are independent screens, the housing 110A, the housing 110B, and the housing 110C can correspondingly be independent housings.

[0225] The material of the rear shell 110 can be a metal material, such as an aluminum-magnesium alloy, or a non-metal material. One or more shell parts (for example, the shell 110A) can be provided with a rear camera 111. The rear camera 111 can include multiple rear cameras, such as a rear camera 111A, a rear camera 111B, and a rear camera 111C. The rear camera 111A, the rear camera 111B, and the rear camera 111C can be a normal camera, a wide-angle camera, and a telephoto camera, respectively. The side of the shell 110A where the rear cover is located can also have a flash 115 and the like.

[0226] For ease of description, the electronic device 100 can be divided into multiple sides: a side A, a side B, a side C, a side D, a side E, and a side F. The side A is a non-display side of the screen 120A (the side where the shell 110A is located), the side B is a non-display side of the screen 120B (the side where the shell 110B is located), the side C is a non-display side of the screen 120C (the side where the shell 110C is located), the side D is a display side of the screen 120A, the side E is a display side of the screen 120B, and the side F is a display side of the screen 120C.

[0227] The folding manner of the electronic device 100 can include one or more of the following: inner folding and outer folding. Compared with outer folding, inner folding reduces the exposure of the screen to the outside.

[0228] FIG. 7C schematically shows another outer folding manner of the screen 120. As shown in FIG. 7C, the screen 120 is folded outward at a position 131B, specifically, the screen 120C is turned outward around the folding component 2, and the turning direction is indicated by a mark 121B. In this way, the side F is no longer on the same side as the sides D and E, and if the outer folding angle reaches 180°, the sides B and C will be in contact and superimposed and thus invisible to the outside.

[0229] FIG. 7D schematically shows an inner folding manner of the screen 120. As shown in FIG. 7D, the screen 120 is folded inward at a position 131A, specifically, the screen 120A is turned inward around the folding component 1, and the turning direction is indicated by a mark 122A. In this way, the side A is no longer on the same side as the sides B and C, and if the inner folding angle reaches 180°, the sides D and E will be in contact and superimposed and thus invisible to the outside.

[0230] FIGS. 7E-7F show a folding state (1) formed by the folding manner shown in FIG. 7C. As shown in FIGS. 7E-7F, in the folding state (1), the side F forms an angle of 180° or close to 180° with the sides D and E, and the sides D, E, and F are all visible to the user, except that the side F is no longer on the same side as the sides D and E.

[0231] FIG. 7G shows a folded state (2). The folded state (2) is formed by the outer fold shown in FIG. 7C and the inner fold shown in FIG. 7D. In this folded state, the D face and the E face form an angle of 180° or close to 180°, and the F face and the E face also form an angle of 180° or close to 180°, the D face and the E face can be superimposed and not visible to the user, only the F face is visible to the user, and at this time the electronic device 100 can only display the screen on the F face.

[0232] Taking the electronic device 100 as a three-fold electronic device, the wallpaper setting method provided by the embodiments of the present application will be described below in conjunction with a series of user interfaces shown in FIGS. 8A-8H, 9A-9C, and 10A-10C.

[0233] The series of user interfaces shown in FIGS. 8A-8H are the user interfaces involved when the electronic device 100 is in the folded state A and performs wallpaper setting. Among them, the folded state A can be the folded state (2) shown in the foregoing FIG. 7G.

[0234] The series of user interfaces shown in FIGS. 9A-9C are the user interfaces involved when the electronic device 100 is in the folded state B and performs wallpaper setting. Among them, the folded state B can be the folded state (1) shown in the foregoing FIGS. 7E-7F.

[0235] The series of user interfaces shown in FIGS. 10A-10C are the user interfaces involved when the electronic device 100 is in the unfolded state and performs wallpaper setting. Among them, the unfolded state can be the state shown in the foregoing FIGS. 7A-7B.

[0236] 1. The electronic device 100 performs wallpaper setting in the folded state A

[0237] Taking the C screen for display as an example, referring to FIG. 8A, the user interface 810 shown in FIG. 8A can be displayed by the electronic device 100 in the folded state A when the user performs an operation on, for example, the wallpaper 241 shown in FIG. 2D, and the wallpaper currently applied by the electronic device 100 is the wallpaper 241.

[0238] Continuing to refer to FIG. 8A, the user interface 810 can include an identifier 811, an identifier 812, an identifier 813, an application option 814, a blurring option 815, a page switching option 816, and a cancel option 817, where the identifier 811 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to display a preview page of the wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the folded state A, the identifier 812 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to display a preview page of the wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the folded state B, the identifier 813 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to display a preview page of the wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the unfolded state, the application option 814 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to apply the wallpaper (e.g., to the lock screen interface and / or the desktop), the blurring option 815 can be used to blur the wallpaper, the page switching option 816 can be used to switch the preview page, and the cancel option 817 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to return to a previous user interface of the current user interface.

[0239] Continuing to refer to FIG. 8A, it can be seen that the identifier 811 is in a selected state, and the “identifier 811 is in the selected state” can indicate that the current preview page is a preview page of the wallpaper applied in the folded state A of the electronic device 100. As can be seen from FIG. 8A, the current preview page is a preview page of the wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface in the folded state A of the electronic device 100. In an embodiment of the present application, the user can trigger the electronic device 100 to display a preview page of the wallpaper applied to the desktop in the folded state A by operating the page switching option 816.

[0240] Continuing to refer to FIG. 8A, the electronic device 100 can detect an operation (e.g., a click operation) of the user on the identifier 812, and in response to the operation, refer to FIG. 8B, the electronic device 100 can place the identifier 812 in a selected state, and can display a user interface 820, where the user interface 820 can include a replace wallpaper option 821, and the replace wallpaper option 821 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to replace the wallpaper applied in the folded state B.

[0241] Continuing to refer to FIG. 8B, it can be seen that the identifier 812 is in a selected state, and the “identifier 812 is in the selected state” can indicate that the current preview page is a preview page of the wallpaper applied in the folded state B of the electronic device 100. As can be seen from FIG. 8B, the current preview page is a preview page of the wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface in the folded state B of the electronic device 100. In an embodiment of the present application, the user can trigger the electronic device 100 to display a preview page of the wallpaper applied to the desktop in the folded state B by operating the page switching option 822.

[0242] With reference to FIG. 8A or FIG. 8B continuously, the electronic device 100 can detect an operation (e.g., a click operation) of the user on the identification 813, in response to the operation, with reference to FIG. 8C, the electronic device 100 can place the identification 813 in a selected state, and can display a user interface 830, which can include a change wallpaper option 831, where the change wallpaper option 831 can be used to trigger the electronic device 100 to change the wallpaper of the application in the unfolded state.

[0243] With reference to FIG. 8C continuously, it can be seen that the identification 813 is in the selected state, and the "identification 813 in the selected state" can mean that the current preview page is a preview page of the electronic device 100 when the wallpaper is applied in the unfolded state. As can be seen from FIG. 8C, the current preview page is a preview page of the electronic device 100 when the wallpaper is applied to the lock screen interface in the unfolded state. In the embodiments of the present application, the user can trigger the electronic device 100 to display a preview page when the wallpaper is applied to the desktop in the unfolded state by operating the page switching option 832.

[0244] As can be seen from FIG. 8A, when the electronic device 100 is in the folded state A, the identification 811 can be placed in the selected state by default (i.e., the electronic device 100 is triggered to display a preview page when the wallpaper is applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the folded state A by default), and after detecting the operation of the user on the identification 812 or the identification 813, the identification 812 is placed in the selected state (i.e., the electronic device 100 is triggered to display a preview page when the wallpaper is applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the folded state B) or the identification 813 is placed in the selected state (i.e., the electronic device 100 is triggered to display a preview page when the wallpaper is applied to the lock screen interface or the desktop in the unfolded state). In some examples, the identification 812 can also be placed in the selected state by default, and after detecting the operation of the user on the identification 811 or the identification 813, the identification 811 or the identification 813 is placed in the selected state. In other examples, the identification 813 can also be placed in the selected state by default, and after detecting the operation of the user on the identification 811 or the identification 812, the identification 811 or the identification 812 is placed in the selected state.

[0245] With reference to FIG. 8A, FIG. 8B, and FIG. 8C continuously, in the case where the electronic device 100 is in the folded state A, the electronic device 100 can not only support the user to preview the effect of the wallpaper applied to the folded state A, the folded state B, and the unfolded state, but also support the user to set different wallpapers in the electronic device 100 in the folded state A, the folded state B, and the unfolded state respectively.

[0291] Possible implementation manner one,

[0292] The electronic device 100 supports the user to set different wallpapers in the three different states of the electronic device 100 in the folded state A, the folded state B, and the unfolded state, which can specifically include that the electronic device 100 supports the user to replace the wallpaper applied in the folded state A, or replace the wallpaper applied in the folded state B.

[0293] Referring to FIG. 10B, taking replacing the wallpaper applied in the folded state A as an example, the electronic device 100 can detect the operation (for example, a click operation) of the user on the wallpaper replacement option 1021 shown in FIG. 10B, and in response to the operation, the electronic device 100 can pull up the wallpaper library and display the window 840 shown in FIG. 8D, and the subsequent specific operation process is similar to the process of replacing the wallpaper applied in the unfolded state shown in FIGS. 8D-8H, which can be referred to the foregoing related description, and will not be repeated here.

[0294] Referring to FIG. 10C, taking replacing the wallpaper applied in the folded state B as an example, the electronic device 100 can detect the operation (for example, a click operation) of the user on the wallpaper replacement option 1031 shown in FIG. 10C, and in response to the operation, the electronic device 100 can pull up the wallpaper library and display the window 840 shown in FIG. 8D, and the subsequent specific operation process is similar to the process of replacing the wallpaper applied in the unfolded state shown in FIGS. 8D-8H, which can be referred to the foregoing related description, and will not be repeated here.

[0295] Possible implementation mode two,

[0296] The electronic device 100 supports the user to set different wallpapers in the three different states of the electronic device 100 in the folded state A, the folded state B, and the unfolded state, which can specifically include that the electronic device 100 supports the user to replace the wallpaper applied in the unfolded state.

[0297] In this case, the electronic device 100 can increase the display of the wallpaper replacement option 1021 shown in FIG. 10B or the wallpaper replacement option 1031 shown in FIG. 10C in the user interface shown in FIG. 10A, and the user can click the option to trigger the electronic device 100 to replace the wallpaper applied in the unfolded state. The specific process is similar to the process of replacing the wallpaper applied in the unfolded state shown in FIGS. 8D-8H, which can be referred to the foregoing related description, and will not be repeated here.

[0298] By implementing the method provided by the embodiments shown in FIGS. 8A-8H, 9A-9C, 10A-10C, for a three-fold electronic device, in the wallpaper setting process, in terms of previewing the wallpaper, the electronic device can support the user to directly preview the effect of applying a certain wallpaper in the folded state A and the folded state B when the electronic device is in the unfolded state, without folding the screen, and the electronic device can support the user to directly preview the effect of applying a certain wallpaper in the unfolded state when the electronic device is in the folded state A or the folded state B, without unfolding the screen; in terms of selecting the wallpaper, the electronic device can support the user to select different wallpapers for the electronic device in the folded state A, the folded state B, and the unfolded state, for example, when detecting that the user performs an operation of changing the wallpaper in a certain folded state A or folded state B or unfolded state in the preview interface, the wallpaper library can be directly pulled up for the user to select the wallpaper, without exiting the preview interface. In this way, the user operation can be simplified, which is convenient and efficient, and the wallpaper setting efficiency is improved. In addition, the electronic device can also support the user to select various types of wallpapers (such as static wallpapers and dynamic wallpapers), and further, the wallpaper composition can be automatically optimized based on an aesthetic composition algorithm, and the display of the depth-of-field effect is optimized. In this way, the user can be provided with more wallpaper selection experience and better visual experience.

[0299] It is easy to understand that, since the size of the screen used for display in the folded state A is smaller than the size of the screen used for display in the folded state B, and the size of the screen used for display in the folded state B is smaller than the size of the screen used for display in the unfolded state, for the same wallpaper, the field of view of the wallpaper in the folded state A is smaller than the field of view of the wallpaper in the folded state B, and the field of view of the wallpaper in the folded state B is smaller than the field of view of the wallpaper in the unfolded state.

[0315] The service card editing can be used to provide a function of editing a service card.

[0316] The depth-of-field wallpaper editing can be used to provide a function of editing a depth-of-field wallpaper. The depth-of-field wallpaper can be a wallpaper in which a small part of a main body of the wallpaper can be displayed in front of a clock component on a lock screen interface. The depth-of-field wallpaper can make the main body of the wallpaper stand out, produce a visual layered effect (which can be referred to as a depth-of-field effect), and thus can provide a better visual experience for the user.

[0317] The live photo editing can be used to provide a function of editing a live photo. It is easy to understand that the live photo can be used as a dynamic wallpaper.

[0318] The multi-wallpaper management can be used to provide a management function of multiple sets of wallpaper resources for multiple screens. In a possible implementation, the multi-wallpaper management can store a mapping relationship between a wallpaper resource and a screen. Taking a two-fold electronic device as an example, for example, a wallpaper resource corresponding to a wallpaper set by the user for an inner screen is wallpaper resource 1, then the multi-wallpaper management module can determine that the screen corresponding to the wallpaper resource 1 is the inner screen, and store the mapping relationship therebetween; for example, a wallpaper resource corresponding to a wallpaper set by the user for an outer screen is wallpaper resource 2, then the multi-wallpaper management module can determine that the screen corresponding to the wallpaper resource 2 is the outer screen, and store the mapping relationship therebetween.

[0329] The wallpaper engine can include static wallpaper display, depth-of-field wallpaper display, dynamic wallpaper display.

[0330] The wallpaper engine can be a separate wallpaper rendering engine, which can render a wallpaper to support display of a corresponding wallpaper (e.g., static wallpaper, dynamic wallpaper) on an interface (e.g., lock screen interface, desktop).

[0331] The theme management service can include theme package verification, theme enabling, current enabled theme data storage, theme switching event notification.

[0332] The theme package verification can be used to verify a data package of theme resources.

[0333] The theme enabling can be used to provide a function of enabling (i.e., applying) a theme selected by a user.

[0334] The current enabled theme data storage can be used to store data of a currently enabled theme. It is easy to understand that, since a wallpaper is a part of a theme, data of the currently enabled theme can include data of a currently enabled wallpaper.

[0335] The theme switching event notification can be used to provide a sensing function of a theme switching event.

[0336] Referring to FIG. 12, in the embodiment of the present application, the application program can provide the user with the preview function and the editing function of the wallpaper through the theme integration editor. After detecting the user's preview operation on the wallpaper, the theme integration editor can directly render and display the wallpaper for the user to preview. After detecting the user's editing operation and application operation on the wallpaper, the theme integration editor can send the data of the editing operation to the theme application service. The theme application service can store the data. In addition, the theme application service can implement the application of the wallpaper. The theme application service can also send the wallpaper resource corresponding to the selected wallpaper by the user and the data of the editing operation to the theme management service. The theme management service can store the wallpaper resource and the data of the editing operation. Further, the wallpaper engine can read the wallpaper resource and the data of the editing operation stored in the theme management service, and render the wallpaper based on the wallpaper resource and the data of the editing operation. The rendered wallpaper can be used to display on the lock screen interface and / or the desktop.

[0337] Continuing to refer to FIG. 12, the storage directory of the wallpaper resource is exemplarily introduced below.

[0338] As shown in FIG. 12, the storage directory can include a first-level directory and a second-level directory.

[0339] The first-level directory can include / home and / lock.

[0340] The / home can be used to store the wallpaper resource of the desktop.

[0341] The / lock can be used to store the wallpaper resource of the lock screen interface.

[0342] The second-level directory can include / base, / land, / unfolded, / land-unfolded, / unfolded2, / land-unfolded2, and / origin.

[0343] The / base can be used to store the wallpaper resource of the non-foldable-screen mobile phone, the wallpaper resource of the tablet computer in the portrait screen, the wallpaper resource of the outer screen of the two-foldable electronic device, and the wallpaper resource of the three-foldable electronic device in the aforementioned folding state A (also referred to as F state).

[0344] The / land (not shown in the figure) can be used to store the wallpaper resource of the tablet computer in the landscape screen. It is easy to understand that, since the desktop or the lock screen interface of the non-foldable-screen mobile phone usually does not automatically rotate in the landscape screen, it is not necessary to separately save the wallpaper resource in the landscape screen.

[0345] / unfolded can be used to store wallpaper resources of a two-fold electronic device in an unfolded state and in a portrait screen, and of a three-fold electronic device in the aforementioned folding state B (may also be referred to as M state) and in a portrait screen.

[0346] / land-unfolded can be used to store wallpaper resources of a two-fold electronic device in an unfolded state and in a landscape screen, and of a three-fold electronic device in the aforementioned folding state B (may also be referred to as M state) and in a landscape screen.

[0347] / unfolded2 can be used to store wallpaper resources of a three-fold electronic device in an unfolded state (may also be referred to as G state) and in a portrait screen.

[0348] / land-unfolded2 can be used to store wallpaper resources of a three-fold electronic device in an unfolded state and in a landscape screen.

[0349] / origin can be used to store original wallpaper resources in order to support user editing operations on the wallpaper.

[0350] The following takes the lock screen interface of a three-fold electronic device in folding state A, folding state B, and unfolded state as an example, and exemplarily introduces the storage directory of the wallpaper resources in combination with FIG. 13.

[0351] Suppose that the wallpaper applied by the lock screen interface in the aforementioned folding state A is a normal static wallpaper (for example, a system preset wallpaper, a static photo / picture in a gallery), the wallpaper resource can be stored in the secondary directory / base and the / base of the secondary directory / origin, for example, lock_wallpaper_xxx.jpg.

[0352] Exemplarily, suppose that the user selects a static photo in a gallery as the wallpaper of the lock screen interface, and the storage path of the static photo in the electronic device is “internal storage / DCIM / Camera / IMG_001.jpg”, then the secondary directory / base and the / base of the secondary directory / origin can store lock_wallpaper_internal storage / DCIM / Camera / IMG_001.jpg.

[0353] Assuming that the wallpaper applied by the lock screen interface in the foregoing folded state B is a dynamic wallpaper (for example, a video, a live photo, etc.), and taking a live photo as the dynamic wallpaper as an example, the dynamic wallpaper can include a picture file, a video file, and a first frame picture of the video, the wallpaper resource can be stored in the second directory unfolded, the second directory land-unfolded, and the second directory origin / unfolded, for example, the second directory unfolded can store lock_wallpaper_xxx.jpg and moving_wallpaper_first_frame_xxx.jpg, the second directory land-unfolded can store lock_wallpaper_xxx.jpg and moving_wallpaper_first_frame_xxx.jpg, and the second directory origin / unfolded can store lock_wallpaper_xxx.jpg, moving_wallpaper_xxx.mp4, and moving_wallpaper_first_frame_xxx.jpg.

[0354] Illustratively, assuming that the user selects a live photo in the gallery as the wallpaper of the lock screen interface, the storage path of the live photo in the electronic device is “internal storage / DCIM / Camera / IMG_001.livp”, and the file of the live photo can obtain a picture file and a video file, assuming that the storage path of the picture file is “xxx / IMG_001.jpg”, the storage path of the video file is “xxx / VID_001.mp4”, and the storage path of the first frame picture of the video is “xxx / IMG_002.jpg”, then the second directory unfolded and the second directory land-unfolded can store lock_wallpaper_xxx / IMG_001.jpg and moving_wallpaper_first_frame_xxx / IMG_002.jpg, and the second directory origin / unfolded can store lock_wallpaper_xxx / IMG_001.jpg, moving_wallpaper_xxx / VID_001.mp4, and moving_wallpaper_first_frame_xxx / IMG_002.jpg.

[0355] Assuming that the wallpaper of the lock screen interface application in the unfolded state is a depth-of-field wallpaper, wherein the depth-of-field wallpaper can include a background wallpaper and a foreground small image, the wallpaper resource can be stored under the second directory unfolded2, the second directory / land-unfolded2 and the second directory / origin / unfolded2, for example, the second directory / unfolded2 can store lock_wallpaper_xxx.jpg, dof_foregroud_image_xxx.png, the second directory / land-unfolded2 can store lock_wallpaper_xxx.jpg, dof_foregroud_image_xxx.png, and the second directory / origin / unfolded2 can store lock_wallpaper_xxx.jpg.

[0356] Exemplarily, assuming that the storage path of the background wallpaper in the depth-of-field wallpaper is “xxx / picture_001.jpg” and the storage path of the foreground small image is “xxx / picture_001.png”, then the second directory / unfolded and the second directory / land-unfolded can store lock_wallpaper_xxx / picture_001.jpg, dof_foregroud_image_xxx / picture_001.png, and the second directory / origin / unfolded2 can store lock_wallpaper_xxx / picture_001.jpg.

[0357] Exemplarily, referring to FIGS. 8F-8H, the same wallpaper is selected in the folded state A (i.e., the fully folded state) and the folded state B (i.e., the half folded state) and is applied to the lock screen interface and the desktop, and a wallpaper different from the wallpaper in the folded state A and the folded state B is selected in the unfolded state and is applied to the lock screen interface and the desktop. Assuming that the wallpaper in the folded state A and the folded state B is a static picture, the storage path of the picture in the electronic device is “xxx / IMG_001.jpg”, and the wallpaper in the unfolded state is another static picture, the storage path of the picture in the electronic device is “xxx / IMG_002.jpg”, then in the first directory / home, the second directories / base, / unfolded, / land-unfolded, / origin of / base and / unfolded can store home_wallpaper_xxx / IMG_001.jpg, and the second directories / unfolded2, / land-unfolded2, / origin of / unfolded2 can store home_wallpaper_xxx / IMG_002.jpg; in the first directory / lock, the second directories / base, / unfolded, / land-unfolded, / origin of / base and / unfolded can store lock_wallpaper_xxx / IMG_001.jpg, and the second directories / unfolded2, / land-unfolded2, / origin of / unfolded2 can store lock_wallpaper_xxx / IMG_002.jpg.

[0358] FIG. 14 exemplarily shows a specific flow of a wallpaper setting method provided by an embodiment of the present application.

[0359] As shown in FIG. 14, the method can be applied to a foldable electronic device, and the specific steps of the method are described in detail as follows.

[0360] S1401, the electronic device displays a first interface, the first interface includes a first preview page, and the first preview page is used to display the effect of the first wallpaper applied to the electronic device in a first device form.

[0361] S1402, the electronic device detects a first operation acting on the first interface; in response to the first operation, the electronic device displays a second interface, the second interface includes a second preview page, and the second preview page is used to display the effect of the first wallpaper applied to the electronic device in a second device form; wherein the first device form and the second device form are the unfolded state or the folded state of the electronic device, the first device form is different from the second device form, and the first interface and the second interface are wallpaper setting interfaces.

[0362] For a two-fold electronic device, the first interface may, for example, be the interface shown in FIG. 5A, the second interface may, for example, be the interface shown in FIG. 5B, and the first operation may, for example, be the operation for the identifier 511, or the first interface may, for example, be the interface shown in FIG. 5B, the second interface may, for example, be the interface shown in FIG. 5A, and the first operation may, for example, be the operation for the identifier 512, or the first interface may, for example, be the interface shown in FIG. 5G, the second interface may, for example, be the interface shown in FIG. 5H, and the first operation may, for example, be the operation for the identifier 552, or the first interface may, for example, be the interface shown in FIG. 5H, the second interface may, for example, be the interface shown in FIG. 5B, and the first operation may, for example, be the operation for the identifier 551.

[0363] For a three-fold electronic device, the first interface and the second interface may, for example, be any two interfaces shown in FIGS. 8A-8C, or any two interfaces shown in FIGS. 9A-9C, or any two interfaces shown in FIGS. 10A-10C. Taking an example in which the first interface is the interface shown in FIG. 8A and the second interface is the interface shown in FIG. 8B, the first operation may, for example, be the operation for the identifier 812.

[0364] The first preview page may, for example, be a preview page when the first wallpaper is applied to a lock screen / interface or a desktop in the first device form, and the second preview page may, for example, be a preview page when the first wallpaper is applied to a lock screen / interface or a desktop in the second device form.

[0365] In a possible implementation, the method further includes: detecting, by the electronic device, a second operation; and in response to the second operation, applying, by the electronic device, the first wallpaper in the first device form and applying the first wallpaper in the second device form.

[0366] The second operation may, for example, be an operation of applying the first wallpaper. In this way, the wallpaper applied in the first device form and the second device form is the same. One wallpaper application operation can set the wallpapers in the two device forms, which is convenient and fast and improves the wallpaper setting efficiency.

[0367] In a possible implementation, the method further includes: detecting, by the electronic device, a third operation; and in response to the third operation, replacing, by the electronic device, the first wallpaper in the second interface with a second wallpaper and displaying, by the electronic device, a third preview page in the second interface, the third preview page being used to display an effect of the second wallpaper applied to the electronic device in the second device form.

[0368] Exemplarily, the first wallpaper may, for example, be the wallpaper shown in FIG. 5B, the second wallpaper may, for example, be the wallpaper shown in FIG. 5D, the third preview page may, for example, be the preview page shown in FIG. 5D, and the third operation may, for example, be an operation of clicking the wallpaper replacement option shown in FIG. 5B and an operation of selecting the wallpaper shown in FIG. 5C.

[0369] In this way, in one wallpaper setting process, the wallpaper applied in different device forms can be changed, the user operation is simplified, and the user experience is improved.

[0370] In a possible implementation, the method further includes: the electronic device detecting a fourth operation; and in response to the fourth operation, the electronic device applying the first wallpaper in the first device form and applying the second wallpaper in the second device form.

[0371] The fourth operation can be an operation of applying the first wallpaper and the second wallpaper.

[0372] In a possible implementation, the second interface further includes a first control, the first control being used for changing the wallpaper, and the third operation includes: an operation of the user on the first control, the operation being used for triggering the electronic device to display a first window, the first window including one or more wallpapers, the one or more wallpapers including the second wallpaper, the second wallpaper being different from the first wallpaper; and the third operation further includes: an operation of the user in the first window to select the second wallpaper.

[0373] The first control can be a control (for example, the wallpaper changing option shown in FIG. 5B) used for changing the wallpaper, and the first window is a window (for example, the window shown in FIG. 5C) used for selecting the wallpaper.

[0374] In this way, the selection of the wallpaper can be completed without exiting the current interface, and the operation is simple and convenient.

[0375] In a possible implementation, the electronic device applying the first wallpaper in the first device form specifically includes: the electronic device applying the first wallpaper to a desktop and / or a lock screen interface in the first device form.

[0376] That is, the wallpaper can be applied to the desktop, and can also be applied to the lock screen interface.

[0377] In a possible implementation, before the electronic device applying the first wallpaper in the first device form and applying the second wallpaper in the second device form, the method further includes: the electronic device displaying a second window, the second window including a first preview box and a second preview box, the first preview box being used for displaying an effect of the first wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface in the first device form, and the second preview box being used for displaying an effect of the first wallpaper applied to the desktop in the first device form; the electronic device detecting a fifth operation acting on the second window; and in response to the fifth operation, the electronic device displaying a third window, the third window including a third preview box and a fourth preview box, the third preview box being used for displaying an effect of the second wallpaper applied to the lock screen interface in the second device form, and the fourth preview box being used for displaying an effect of the second wallpaper applied to the desktop in the second device form.

[0378] Exemplarily, taking a two-fold electronic device as an example, the first device form can be an unfolded state, the second device form can be a folded state, the second window can be the window shown in FIG. 5E, the third window can be the window shown in FIG. 5F, the first preview frame can be the preview frame 543 shown in FIG. 5E, the second preview frame can be the preview frame 544 shown in FIG. 5E, the third preview frame can be the preview frame 547 shown in FIG. 5F, the fourth preview frame can be the preview frame 548 shown in FIG. 5F, and the fifth operation can be an operation on the identifier 541 shown in FIG. 5E.

[0379] In this way, the electronic device can support the user to preview the effect of the wallpaper when applied to the lock screen interface and the desktop in the first device form and the second device form.

[0380] In a possible implementation, the method further includes: in response to the operation of selecting the first preview frame, the electronic device applies the first wallpaper to the lock screen interface of the electronic device in the first device form; and / or, in response to the operation of selecting the second preview frame, the electronic device applies the first wallpaper to the desktop of the electronic device in the first device form; and / or, in response to the operation of selecting the third preview frame, the electronic device applies the second wallpaper to the lock screen interface of the electronic device in the second device form; and / or, in response to the operation of selecting the fourth preview frame, the electronic device applies the second wallpaper to the desktop of the electronic device in the second device form.

[0381] In this way, the electronic device can support the user to select to apply the wallpaper to the lock screen interface and / or the desktop.

[0382] In a possible implementation, the effect of the first wallpaper in the first device form is different from the effect of the first wallpaper in the second device form, and the effect includes one or more of the following: a display specification of the first wallpaper, a range of view.

[0383] The display specification can include the size of the wallpaper. In actual application, in order to provide better visual experience for the user, the size of the wallpaper needs to adapt to the size of the screen. For a foldable screen electronic device, the size of the screen will be different in the folded state and the unfolded state, and therefore, the size of the wallpaper will also be different. It can be easily understood that, for the same wallpaper, the size of the wallpaper is different, and the content of the wallpaper can also be different. Here, the content of the wallpaper can refer to the range of view of the wallpaper, that is, for the same wallpaper, the range of view is different for different sizes, and the content is also different.

[0384] In a possible implementation, the first preview page is a preview page of a lock screen interface when the first wallpaper is applied to the first device form, and the first preview page includes the first component. The method further includes: detecting, by the electronic device, an editing operation of the first component by the user; and in response to the editing operation, displaying, by the electronic device, the edited first component on the first preview page. The editing operation includes one or more of the following: a layout editing operation, a style editing operation, a font style editing operation, a font color editing operation, a display content editing operation, and a lock screen signature editing operation.

[0385] The first component may, for example, be a clock component. In this way, the component on the lock screen interface can be directly personalized and edited during the wallpaper setting process, which is convenient and fast, and can provide a personalized experience for the user.

[0386] In a possible implementation, the method further includes: detecting, by the electronic device, a sixth operation, the sixth operation being an operation of adding a first service card to the lock screen interface; and in response to the sixth operation, displaying, by the electronic device, the first service card on the first preview page.

[0387] In this way, the service card can be directly added to the lock screen interface during the wallpaper setting process, which is convenient and fast.

[0388] In a possible implementation, the electronic device includes a folding screen and a non-folding screen, and the folding screen faces away from the non-folding screen.

[0389] For example, for a two-fold electronic device, the folding screen can be an inner screen, and the non-folding screen can be an outer screen.

[0390] In a possible implementation, the electronic device includes a folding screen, and the folding screen includes a first screen, a second screen, and a third screen. The folding state includes a first folding state and a second folding state. The method further includes: detecting, by the electronic device, a seventh operation; and in response to the seventh operation, displaying, by the electronic device, a fourth interface. The fourth interface includes a fourth preview page, and the fourth preview page is used to display an effect when the first wallpaper is applied to the electronic device in a third device form. The third device form is different from the first device form and the second device form, and the fourth interface is a wallpaper setting interface.

[0391] Exemplarily, assuming that the first interface is the interface shown in FIG. 8A, the second interface is the interface shown in FIG. 8B, and the fourth interface is the interface shown in FIG. 8C, the seventh operation can be an operation on the identifier 813, the fourth preview page can be a preview page of the lock screen interface / desk when the first wallpaper is applied to the third device form, and the first folding state and the second folding state can be a half folding state or a fully folding state. In a possible implementation, the method further includes: saving, by the electronic device, first data, the first data including, in the first device form, wallpaper data applied to the desk and / or the lock screen interface, and, in the second device form, wallpaper data applied to the desk and / or the lock screen interface.

[0392] The first data can be data of a wallpaper set by a user and saved by the electronic device, and the storage of the data can refer to the related description of FIG. 12 and FIG. 13.

[0393] The structure of the electronic device 100 provided in an embodiment of the present application is described below.

[0394] FIG. 15 exemplarily shows a structure of an electronic device 100 provided in an embodiment of the present application.
