Solution Overview

Problem

Existing window adjustment methods in electronic devices lack flexibility and efficiency, as they often require adjustments to be made under specific window modes, limiting their scalability and reusability.

Innovation Solution

A window adjustment method that allows windows to be displayed in a free window mode compatible with multiple window modes, enabling selection and adjustment of multiple windows simultaneously, with adjustable parameters to enhance flexibility and efficiency.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If windows are adjusted under specific window modes only, then each window can be adjusted according to its mode, but adjustment efficiency is low and flexibility is insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvewindow adjustment flexibilityVSAvoidadjustment efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a universal adjustment interface that works across multiple window modes (full-screen, split-screen, floating, picture-in-picture). The adjustment parameters and controls are designed to be mode-agnostic, allowing users to adjust window properties regardless of the current mode, thereby improving both flexibility and efficiency simultaneously

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Manufacturing precision

If multiple windows are adjusted individually, then each window can be precisely controlled, but adjustment time and operational complexity increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvewindow adjustment precisionVSAvoidadjustment time
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent enables batch selection and simultaneous adjustment of multiple windows through a unified interface. Users can select multiple windows and apply adjustment parameters to all selected windows at once, maintaining precise control over each window while dramatically reducing the time and operations required compared to individual adjustments

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

AI summary

The present application provides a window adjustment method, an electronic device and a computer readable storage medium. The window adjustment method, applied to an electronic device and including: displaying P windows in a free window mode, each window corresponding to one window mode and at least one application, P being a positive integer, and the free window mode being configured to be compatible with two or more window modes; selecting Q windows from the P windows, Q being a positive integer less than or equal to P; determining an adjustment parameter of the Q windows, the adjustment parameter being configured to adjust one or more functions of a type of control, or the adjustment parameter being configured to adjust one or more functions of any adjustable control of the Q windows; adjusting a corresponding control of the Q windows based on the adjustment parameter to obtain adjusted Q windows.
