Solution Overview

Problem

Application page displays often have limited space, making it difficult to fully showcase multiple function sets, which can be unattractive to users.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus for displaying an application page that includes receiving user operations to switch between different areas and feed flows on the same page, utilizing preset conditions such as duration or user interactions, to display multiple labels and corresponding feed flows, thereby maximizing page space and enhancing user experience.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Quantity of substance

If multiple function sets are displayed on a single page, then the information richness is improved, but the display space limitation causes layout complexity and visual clutter

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation richnessVSAvoidlayout complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The display area is segmented into multiple independent regions, each dedicated to a specific function set. Labels are divided into multiple types (first labels, second labels) corresponding to different function sets. This segmentation allows multiple function sets to be displayed simultaneously without creating visual clutter, as each segment is clearly defined and organized.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a temporal dimension to the display by implementing automatic switching between different function set displays. Instead of only spatial arrangement, the system uses time-based transitions to showcase multiple function sets, effectively utilizing the time dimension to resolve space limitations and reduce layout complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Loss of information

If the page displays content of multiple function sets, then the user information access is improved, but the limited display space reduces visual appeal

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation accessibilityVSAvoiddisplay space
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSArea of stationary object

Solution Approach 1:

The display system implements dynamic switching between different function set presentations. The electronic device automatically transitions between displaying different labels and their corresponding content areas based on preset conditions. This dynamic approach allows the limited display space to showcase multiple function sets sequentially, maintaining visual appeal while ensuring comprehensive information accessibility.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system employs periodic automatic switching between different function set displays. Preset conditions trigger regular transitions between first labels and second labels, allowing each function set to be displayed for a predetermined duration. This periodic action ensures that all function sets receive equal display opportunities within the constrained space, balancing information accessibility with visual presentation quality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #19Periodic action

AI summary

A method for displaying an application page includes: receiving a first operation executed by a user on a first page of a first application, the first operation being used for entering a second page of the first application; in response to receiving the first operation, displaying on the second page a first label, a second label, and a first area corresponding to the first label, and playing an information stream corresponding to a first option in the first area, the first label being used for identifying the function of each option in the first area; and displaying on the second page the first label, the second label, and a second area corresponding to the second label, and playing an information stream corresponding to a second option in the second area, in the case that a preset condition is met.
