Solution Overview

Problem

Current media content creation applications lack convenient management tools for authors to manage objects created by themselves, limiting their ability to optimize and update media content after it is released to other users, leading to increased difficulty in content creation and user engagement.

Innovation Solution

The implementation of an interface processing method and apparatus that allows authors to display and manage object identifiers within the application, enabling attribute setting and updating of media content directly within the application, without requiring a professional authoring tool, through triggering object identifiers to access attribute setting interfaces and display sample media content for enhanced user interaction.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If authors use professional authoring tools to manage objects, then management functionality is provided, but operation convenience deteriorates and accessibility worsens

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconvenience of managing objectsVSAvoidneed for professional authoring tool
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts the object management functionality from the professional authoring tool and brings it directly into the media content creation application. Authors can now manage their created objects (templates, props, filters) within the same application where they create media content, eliminating the need to switch to a separate professional tool and significantly improving operation convenience.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The application gains multi-functionality by integrating both media content creation and object management capabilities into a single platform. The same application that creates media content also provides comprehensive object management features including viewing, editing, deleting, and organizing objects, making the system more versatile and accessible to all users regardless of their authoring tool expertise.

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

2Adaptability or versatility

If object management is integrated into the application, then accessibility improves, but interface complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaccessibility of object managementVSAvoidinterface structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the interface by providing distinct entry points for different user needs: an object identifier displayed in the media content creation interface for quick access, and a dedicated object management interface for comprehensive management. This segmentation allows simple operations to remain simple while providing advanced capabilities when needed, managing interface complexity effectively.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent adds a new dimensional layer to the interface by integrating object management capabilities within the existing media content creation workflow. Instead of adding complexity to the existing workflow, it creates a parallel dimension where object management occurs, allowing users to switch between content creation and object management seamlessly without disrupting either function.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

3Ease of operation

If attribute setting interface is displayed upon triggering, then ease of updating improves, but response time increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of updating objectsVSAvoidtime to access management interface
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements preliminary action by pre-displaying the object identifier in the media content creation interface. This allows authors to quickly trigger the attribute setting interface with a single tap or click on the visible identifier, rather than navigating through multiple menus or screens. The object is prepared for management in advance, minimizing the time and effort required to access and update its attributes.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

Embodiments of the present disclosure disclose a method, an apparatus, a device and a storage medium for interface processing. The method comprises: displaying, in a predetermined application on a first user side, an associated interface of a first user, where the associated interface comprises an object identifier corresponding to at least one object created by the first user and configured to create a media content; and in response to triggering on a target object identifier, displaying an attribute setting interface of a target object corresponding to the target object identifier.
