Icon Adjustment Control Segmentation for Flexible Display Parameter Modification
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing methods for adjusting application icons on electronic devices are complex and lack flexibility, requiring users to download a theme system and navigate multiple settings to change display modes, which can be cumbersome and affect other user interface elements.
Innovation Solution
A user interface adjustment method and apparatus that allows users to receive a touch input on an icon adjustment control with multiple regions, determining and adjusting the display parameters of target application icons without affecting other UI elements, enabling simple and flexible adjustments.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If users download a theme system and open the theme setting window to change the theme, then the display mode of icons, wallpapers, texts can be uniformly replaced, but the operation process becomes complex and flexibility is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the adjustment process by separating icon display parameter adjustment from other UI elements. The icon adjustment control is divided into multiple adjustment regions, each corresponding to specific icon display parameters, allowing independent adjustment without affecting wallpapers, texts, or other elements. This resolves the contradiction by enabling flexible icon adjustment without requiring a complete theme system download and complex global theme settings.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent extracts the icon adjustment function from the comprehensive theme system. By providing a dedicated icon adjustment control that operates independently, users can adjust icon display parameters without needing to download and apply a complete theme system. This extraction simplifies the operation process while maintaining adjustment flexibility.
2Adaptability or versatility
If a theme system is downloaded to adjust application icons, then icon display mode can be changed, but other user interface elements like wallpapers and texts are also affected
Solution Approach 1:
The icon adjustment control is segmented into multiple adjustment regions, where each region corresponds to specific icon display parameters. This segmentation enables isolated adjustment of icon parameters without triggering changes to other UI elements such as wallpapers, texts, or system-wide theme settings, thus eliminating the harmful side effects of comprehensive theme replacement.
Solution Approach 2:
The icon adjustment function is extracted from the global theme system and implemented as an independent control mechanism. This extraction allows icon display parameters to be modified without affecting other UI elements, as the adjustment is confined to the icon domain and does not propagate to the broader theme system.
3Stability of the object's composition
If users need to download a theme system first before adjusting application icons, then theme consistency can be maintained, but the operation process becomes cumbersome and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The icon adjustment control is provided in advance within the existing interface, eliminating the need for preliminary theme system download and installation. Users can directly access and adjust icon display parameters without performing the time-consuming preliminary actions of downloading and applying a complete theme system, thus significantly reducing adjustment time while maintaining display consistency.
Solution Approach 2:
The icon adjustment capability is extracted from the theme system installation process and integrated directly into the user interface. This allows users to adjust icon parameters immediately without the time-consuming theme download and application process, while the extracted adjustment function maintains consistency within the icon display context.

AI summary
A user interface adjustment method and apparatus, and an electronic device are provided. The user interface adjustment method includes: receiving a first touch input on an icon adjustment control in a case that the icon adjustment control is displayed, where the icon adjustment control includes a plurality of adjustment regions, and the plurality of adjustment regions each are associated with a different icon display parameter; determining, in response to the first touch input, a target adjustment region corresponding to the first touch input and a target icon display parameter associated with the target adjustment region; and adjusting a display parameter of a target application icon to the target icon display parameter.
