Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing split-screen display methods on electronic devices are cumbersome, requiring multiple steps to change applications and limiting screen utilization to two applications, leading to low efficiency and difficulty in true multi-application collaboration.
Innovation Solution
A display method that adjusts the proportion of regions on a screen interface in response to user operations, allowing for the display of launch entries or application interfaces based on threshold settings, enabling efficient switching and collaboration among multiple applications.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If traditional split-screen display methods are used, then two applications can be displayed simultaneously, but the operation steps are cumbersome and screen utilization is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The display screen is divided into multiple regions with different proportions, allowing different applications to be displayed in different regions. The system segments the screen into a first region and second region, where the first region can display application interfaces and the second region can display launch entries or mini-interfaces, enabling flexible multi-application collaboration without complex operations
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a dimensional change by allowing the first region to dynamically switch between displaying full application interfaces and displaying launch entries/mini-interfaces. This dimensional transition enables the system to accommodate more applications on screen simultaneously, transforming the traditional two-application limit into multi-application support through proportional region adjustment
2Loss of information
If the proportion of the first region is increased to display application interfaces, then application visibility is improved, but the number of displayable applications is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements dynamic adjustment of region proportions and display content. The first region can dynamically switch between displaying full application interfaces and displaying launch entries or mini-interfaces based on user needs. This dynamic flexibility allows the system to optimize between application visibility and the number of displayable applications without being constrained by fixed region allocations
Solution Approach 2:
Different regions of the screen are assigned different display qualities and functions. The first region can display high-quality full interfaces when needed, while the second region displays launch entries or mini-interfaces. This local quality differentiation allows the system to maintain high application visibility in the first region while accommodating multiple applications through the second region's alternative display modes

AI summary
The present disclosure provides a display method. The display method includes: receiving a first operation, the first operation being used to adjust a proportion of a first region in a first display interface of an electronic device; and displaying, in the first region in response to the first operation, at least one launch entry of at least one application, when the proportion of the first region is smaller than or equal to a first threshold; and displaying, in the first region in response to the first operation, a display interface of a first application in the first region, when the proportion of the first region is greater than the first threshold. Embodiments of the present disclosure further provide a display apparatus and a storage medium.
