Dynamic Menu Bar Positioning for Large Touch Displays
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In smart conference scenarios with large-size display devices, the fixed display position of the menu bar necessitates frequent user movement, reducing convenience and conference experience.
Innovation Solution
A display device and method that dynamically adjusts the menu bar's position based on the user's touch instructions, allowing the menu bar to follow the user's touch position, thereby eliminating the need for repetitive movement.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the menu bar is displayed at a fixed position on the display screen, then the display device can maintain a stable and simple interface structure, but the user needs to move back and forth to operate the menu bar, reducing convenience and conference experience
Solution Approach 1:
The menu bar position is changed from fixed to dynamic, allowing it to move according to the stylus touch position. The control circuit dynamically adjusts the menu bar location based on real-time touch coordinates, enabling the menu bar to follow the user's writing position and eliminating the need for user movement.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements feedback by continuously monitoring the stylus touch position and using this information to adjust the menu bar position. The control circuit receives touch position feedback and automatically repositions the menu bar to maintain optimal accessibility throughout the writing process.
2Productivity
If the menu bar is displayed at a fixed position, then the interface structure remains simple and stable, but user movement is required repeatedly, reducing productivity
Solution Approach 1:
The menu bar transitions from a static component to a dynamic one that automatically repositions itself based on writing location. This dynamic behavior eliminates repetitive user movement and maintains high conference efficiency throughout the writing process.
Solution Approach 2:
The menu bar serves itself by automatically adjusting its position based on the writing context. The system monitors writing position and autonomously repositions the menu bar without requiring user intervention, thereby maintaining productivity while managing complexity internally.
3Ease of operation
If the menu bar follows the touch position dynamically, then user convenience is improved by eliminating repetitive movement, but the control system becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The control circuit uses feedback from touch position detection to automatically adjust menu bar position. By continuously monitoring stylus location and responding with appropriate menu bar repositioning, the system improves accessibility while managing complexity through automated control logic.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces the mechanical solution of moving the user's body to access the menu bar with an electronic/digital solution where the menu bar position is dynamically adjusted through software control. This substitution of mechanical movement with digital positioning resolves the contradiction between ease of operation and device complexity.

AI summary
A display device and a display method for a menu bar thereof are provided. A display device includes a display screen and a control circuit. The display screen is configured to display content. The control circuit includes a processor and a memory. The memory is configured to store a program executable by the processor. The processor is configured to read the program in the memory and perform the following steps: in response to a touch instruction generated by at least one user, determining, according to the touch position of the touch instruction, a display position of a first menu bar corresponding to the touch instruction, the display position changing with the movement of the touch position; and displaying the first menu bar corresponding to the touch instruction at the display position.
