Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current transition animations in terminal devices are limited to specific scenarios, failing to enhance user experience across various modes and transitions.
Innovation Solution
An electronic device method that allows transition animations to be played seamlessly across different screens and modes by resuming unfinished animations, ensuring continuity and improving user experience through intelligent frame management and display box manipulation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If transition animations are limited to specific scenarios, then the animation playback is simple and reliable, but the adaptability and user experience across different modes are poor
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies universality by enabling transition animations to work across multiple scenarios (screen off mode, lock screen mode, desktop mode) rather than being limited to specific modes. The animation management mechanism is designed to universally handle animation resumption and continuation across different screen transitions, making the system adaptable to various usage contexts while maintaining a unified animation management approach.
2Speed
If transition animations are interrupted and switched to another screen, then the response speed is improved, but the animation playback continuity is broken
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements continuity of useful action by maintaining the animation playback state even when screen switching occurs. When an animation is interrupted due to a new screen transition, the system records the animation's current state (progress, frame position) and resumes playback from that state on the new screen. This ensures that the animation action continues uninterrupted across screen boundaries, preserving both speed and continuity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies preliminary action by preparing to resume animation playback in advance when a screen switch is detected. The system identifies the current animation state before switching occurs and pre-configures the animation resumption parameters. When the user interacts with the new screen, the animation automatically resumes from the predetermined state, ensuring seamless continuity without requiring additional user input or causing playback breaks.
3Ease of operation
If the animation playback is resumed on the new screen, then the user experience is improved, but the processing complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements feedback by continuously monitoring the animation playback state and screen transition events. When a screen switch occurs, the system detects this feedback signal and automatically adjusts the animation playback accordingly. The feedback mechanism tracks which animation is currently playing, its progress state, and triggers the appropriate resumption action on the new screen. This automated feedback loop simplifies user interaction while managing the complexity through systematic state tracking and automatic response.

AI summary
This application provides a display method and an electronic device. The method includes: in a process of displaying a first transition animation on a first screen of the electronic device, if the first transition animation displayed on the first screen is interrupted, continuing, by the electronic device, to play an unfinished part of the first transition animation on a switched-to second screen, allowing a transition animation of the electronic device to be applied to more scenarios to improve user experience.
