List Screen Supplementary Information Display Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional display control methods for list screens often fail to effectively attract user attention to specific items, as they only display images without sufficient supplementary information, leading to reduced selection rates for interesting but unrecognized items.
Innovation Solution
A display control method that determines target images for supplementary information display on a list screen based on predetermined rules, arranging product images with supplementary information related to their detailed content, thereby enhancing user attraction and visibility.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If only images are displayed on the list screen without supplementary information, then the display layout remains simple and clear, but user attention to specific items is not effectively attracted and selection rates for interesting but unrecognized items are reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by selectively displaying supplementary information only for specific target images rather than uniformly for all images. The control unit determines which images should receive supplementary information based on predetermined conditions, creating localized information enhancement at strategically chosen positions on the list screen. This resolves the contradiction by maintaining overall layout simplicity while providing targeted information supplementation where most beneficial.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements partial action by displaying supplementary information for only a subset of images rather than all images. The control unit selectively applies supplementary information to target images that meet specific criteria, such as those with higher priority or relevance. This partial application of information enhances user attraction to key items without overwhelming the entire display, thus maintaining layout clarity while reducing information loss for important items.
2Loss of information
If supplementary information is displayed for all images, then complete information is provided, but the display becomes cluttered and user attention is diluted
Solution Approach 1:
By applying supplementary information locally to only certain target images rather than uniformly across all images, the patent avoids display clutter while ensuring complete information is available where needed. The control unit's selective determination of target images based on predetermined conditions creates a balanced display that provides information completeness for important items without overwhelming the overall layout.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses partial action by providing supplementary information for only a portion of images that meet specific criteria. This selective approach ensures that complete information is available for target images while maintaining display simplicity for non-target images, thus resolving the contradiction between information completeness and layout complexity.
3Productivity
If supplementary information is prominently displayed, then user engagement and product visibility are improved, but the information density on the screen increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by concentrating supplementary information display at specific target image locations rather than distributing it uniformly across the screen. This localized approach enhances user engagement with important items while controlling overall information density. The control unit's selective targeting ensures that prominent display is applied only where it generates the most value.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements partial action by providing prominent supplementary information display for only a subset of target images rather than all images. This selective prominence strategy boosts user engagement with key items while limiting the total quantity of supplementary information displayed, thus resolving the contradiction between engagement improvement and information density control.

AI summary
There is provided a display control method that is performed by at least one processor of a computer including a memory storing a program that is executed by the processor. The display control method includes: determining, in accordance with a predetermined rule, from among a plurality of images (i) each associated with detailed information to be presented to a user and (ii) arranged and displayed on a list screen, a target image for which supplementary information included in the detailed information is to be displayed; causing a display to display the list screen where the plurality of images is arranged; and causing the display to display, at a position on the list screen, the supplementary information having a content related to the detailed information associated with the target image, the position corresponding to the target image.
