Mobile Full-Screen Display Switching for Multi-Window Video Playback
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing full-screen display methods in mobile terminals provide poor immersive viewing experiences due to limited full-screen display capabilities, where videos or other content are confined to partial areas of the screen, causing visual interference from adjacent windows.
Innovation Solution
A method for mobile terminals to switch from a multi-window display to a single, larger full-screen display by changing the orientation from portrait to landscape and enlarging the target window to cover the entire screen, while storing display direction information for restoration of the original multi-window layout upon exit.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Area of moving object
If the mobile terminal displays multiple windows simultaneously in portrait mode, then the user can access multiple applications, but the viewing area for each application is limited and visual interference occurs from adjacent windows
Solution Approach 1:
The patent switches the display orientation from portrait to landscape mode when entering full-screen playback, fundamentally changing the spatial dimension of the display area. This dimensional transition allows the video content to occupy the entire screen, eliminating visual interference from other windows while providing a larger viewing area for immersive video playback.
Solution Approach 2:
The system dynamically adjusts the display configuration based on the user's needs. When video playback is initiated, the display automatically transitions from a multi-window portrait layout to a full-screen landscape layout. This dynamic reconfiguration allows the viewing area to expand from a limited window to the entire screen, while the system maintains the ability to restore the original multi-window layout after playback ends.
2Ease of operation
If the mobile terminal switches to full-screen mode for video playback, then the viewing experience is improved, but the original multi-window layout and display direction information are lost
Solution Approach 1:
Before the mobile terminal switches to full-screen landscape mode for video playback, the system performs a preliminary action by storing the current display direction information and multi-window layout configuration. This pre-storage of display state information ensures that when the user exits full-screen mode, the system can restore the original portrait orientation and multi-window arrangement, preventing any loss of display configuration information.
3Stability of the object's composition
If the mobile terminal maintains portrait orientation during full-screen playback, then the display direction is preserved, but the immersive viewing experience is compromised due to smaller display area
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically adjusts the display orientation based on the playback state. During full-screen video playback, the display automatically switches from portrait to landscape orientation to maximize the viewing area and provide an immersive experience. When playback ends, the system dynamically restores the original portrait orientation. This dynamic orientation switching allows the display area to expand during playback while maintaining the original display composition stability after playback.

AI summary
Embodiments of this application relate to the field of electronic technologies, and provide a full-screen display method for a mobile terminal and a device, so that a video play interface can be displayed in full screen mode on an entire screen of the mobile terminal, to improve immersive viewing experience of a user. A specific solution is as follows: The mobile terminal displays a first interface, where the first interface includes a first window and a second window, the first window and the second window are used to display a user interface of an application, and the first window includes a target object. The mobile terminal detects a first touch operation, where the first touch operation is used to indicate the mobile terminal to display the target object in full screen mode. The mobile terminal switches a portrait direction to a landscape direction in response to the first touch operation. The mobile terminal displays a second interface, where the second interface includes a third window, the third window is used to display the target object in full screen mode, and the third window is larger than the first window. The embodiments of this application are used for full-screen display.
