Message-Icon Dragging for One-Step Data Resource Transfer
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing user operation process for data resource transmission in social clients is cumbersome and inefficient, requiring multiple steps and operations to forward data resources between terminals.
Innovation Solution
A data transmission method and apparatus that simplifies the process by providing a resource transmission interface with an icon display region and an object display region, allowing users to move a message icon to determine a target object and transmit the data resource directly through a moving operation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If traditional multi-step forwarding operations are used, then data resource transmission can be achieved, but the user operation process becomes cumbersome and inefficient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple discrete forwarding operations into a single drag-and-drop gesture. The user selects the data resource once and drags it to the target terminal, merging what was previously separate steps (selection, confirmation, targeting) into one continuous action, thereby improving both efficiency and ease of operation
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a visual drag-and-drop interface as an intermediary between the user and the transmission system. This interface provides clear visual feedback during the dragging process, showing the current target and allowing easy correction before final confirmation, thus simplifying the operation while maintaining transmission functionality
2Loss of time
If multiple confirmation steps are required, then transmission accuracy can be ensured, but the operation time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements continuous visual feedback during the drag operation, displaying the current target terminal and allowing the user to see the transmission state in real-time. This feedback mechanism ensures accuracy by letting users verify the target before release, while the streamlined process minimizes time loss compared to separate confirmation dialogs
Solution Approach 2:
The patent performs preliminary target identification and validation during the drag operation itself, rather than requiring separate confirmation steps afterward. The system prepares the transmission parameters as the user drags, and only finalizes upon release, reducing overall operation time while maintaining reliability through continuous verification

AI summary
Disclosed in embodiments of the present invention are a data transmission method and device, a terminal, and a medium. The method comprises: displaying a target message on a conversation interface; in response to a trigger operation performed with respect to the target message, outputting a resource transmission interface, the resource transmission interface comprising an object display region and an icon display region, the object display region comprising object identifiers of one or more transmission objects, and the icon display region comprising a message icon corresponding to the target message; according to a movement operation performed with respect to the message icon, moving the message icon from the icon display region to the object display region; and in response to movement of the message icon to the object display region, transmitting, to a target transmission object in the object display region, a data resource corresponding to the target message, the target transmission object being determined from the one or more transmission objects in the object display region according to a position where a movement path of the message icon terminates.
