Display Orientation Locking Control for Media Playback Interfaces
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users face inconvenience when trying to control the display orientation of electronic devices while browsing media data, as existing systems make it difficult to find and use the rotation lock feature.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus that display a setting control in the current display interface of an application program, allowing users to lock or unlock the display orientation of media data, thereby enabling convenient control of the display orientation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the electronic device is in the landscape/portrait-state automatic rotation mode, then the display orientation adapts to different postures, but the display orientation keeps rotating which disturbs the user
Solution Approach 1:
The system proactively displays the setting control in the current display interface when the user is browsing media data, providing the orientation locking function before the user needs to manually search for it. This preliminary presentation of the control resolves the contradiction by making the adaptability feature controllable without requiring the user to navigate through system settings.
2Ease of operation
If the electronic device is in the landscape/portrait-state locked mode, then the display orientation remains stable, but it is difficult for the user to find the rotation lock built in the system
Solution Approach 1:
The setting control for display orientation locking is merged into the current display interface of the application program, combining the media playback interface with the orientation control function. This integration resolves the contradiction by making the rotation lock easily accessible within the context where the user is already interacting, eliminating the need to search through system settings.
3Ease of operation
If the setting control is displayed in the current display interface, then the user can conveniently control the display orientation, but the interface complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The setting control is dynamically displayed in the current display interface only when the electronic device meets a set condition (when the user is browsing media data). This dynamic presentation resolves the contradiction by making the interface adaptive - the control appears only when needed, providing ease of operation without permanently increasing interface complexity.
