Layout-Aware Screenshot Processing for Complete Knuckle Capture
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The completeness of screenshot content is not ensured when using a knuckle to specify a screenshot range, leading to reduced user experience.
Innovation Solution
A method that analyzes the position and layout information of page elements on a screenshot page to determine target elements for generating a screenshot image, ensuring completeness by traversing elements in descending order of levels and considering overlapping areas.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a user specifies a screenshot range by using a knuckle, then the operation is simple and quick, but the completeness of screenshot content cannot be ensured
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary analysis of the screenshot page layout and page elements before generating the screenshot. It pre-determines which page elements should be included based on their positions and relationships, ensuring completeness is prepared in advance rather than checked after the fact.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an intermediary processing mechanism that analyzes the relationship between the screenshot box and page elements. This intermediary layer (the processing system) mediates between the user's simple screenshot operation and the complex requirement of ensuring complete content capture, automatically adjusting the screenshot range based on page element analysis.
2Measurement precision
If only screenshot content specified by the user is retained, then the screenshot is precise to user selection, but some page elements may be abandoned causing incompleteness
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the screenshot generation process into multiple stages: first analyzing the screenshot box position, then separately analyzing page element positions and relationships, and finally integrating both to determine target page elements. This segmentation allows precise user selection to be combined with automatic completeness checking.
Solution Approach 2:
The system takes a slightly excessive action by automatically including additional page elements that may not be directly selected by the user but are necessary for completeness. Instead of strictly following only the user's screenshot box selection, it expands the selection to include related elements, ensuring no important content is omitted.
Data Source
AI summary
This application provides a screenshot processing method and an electronic device. The method includes: after a screenshot operation is detected, obtaining position information of a screenshot box on a screenshot page and layout information of the screenshot page (S401), where the screenshot page includes one or more page elements, and the layout information of the screenshot page includes a level relationship and position information of the one or more page elements; determining one or more target page elements from the one or more page elements based on the position information of the screenshot box on the screenshot page and the layout information of the screenshot page (S402); and generating a first screenshot image based on the one or more target page elements (S403).
