Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current methods for displaying messages in mobile terminals require users to perform additional operations, leading to increased interaction costs and complex interactions due to limited screen size and poor display effects.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus that obtain message content, determine the visible screen area, calculate the display length and number of lines, and display the content in a scrolling manner if it exceeds the visible area, allowing for automatic and complete message display without additional user interaction.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If message content is displayed in traditional static or notification manners, then the display method is simple, but the user must perform additional operations to view complete message content, increasing interaction costs
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by automatically calculating the visible area, determining display parameters (display length and line quantity), and pre-positioning the message content before user interaction. This eliminates the need for users to manually slide or trigger message display, as the system has already prepared the optimal display state in advance.
Solution Approach 2:
The message display system serves itself by automatically adapting to the visible area and determining how to display the message content. The system self-calculates display parameters and self-adjusts the message presentation without requiring external user intervention, making the display process autonomous and user-friendly.
2Loss of information
If message content is displayed to show complete information, then the information completeness is improved, but the screen space occupation increases, reducing available interaction area
Solution Approach 1:
The system applies local quality by focusing message display precisely within the calculated visible area rather than uniformly occupying the entire screen. By determining the exact display length and line quantity that fit within the visible area, the message is displayed completely in the most space-efficient location, maximizing the remaining screen area for other interactions.
Solution Approach 2:
The system transitions from traditional horizontal or full-screen message display to a vertical dimension approach by calculating the number of display lines based on visible area height. This dimensional transformation allows complete message content to be displayed within the constrained vertical space, preserving horizontal screen real estate for other purposes.
3Productivity
If the display adapts to visible area dynamically, then the display efficiency is improved, but the calculation complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system utilizes parameter changes by dynamically adjusting display parameters (display length and line quantity) based on the visible area. These parameters are calculated through straightforward mathematical relationships between the message content and visible area dimensions, enabling efficient adaptive display without complex algorithms.

AI summary
According to a method for displaying a message in a mobile terminal, message content that needs to be displayed may be obtained, then a visible area on a screen of a mobile terminal is determined, and a display length and a quantity of display lines of the message content are calculated according to the visible area, and the message content is displayed in the visible area in a scrolling manner according to the calculated display length of the message content if the quantity of the display lines exceeds a display range of the visible area. In this way, only a small area of a screen is occupied, and message content can be displayed automatically and completely without the need for a user to perform a further operation. An apparatus and a system for displaying a message in a mobile terminal are also provided.
