Touchscreen Interface Switching by Pull-Down Endpoint Position
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing touchscreen terminals require complex operation steps to switch between operation interfaces, affecting efficiency.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus that allow a user to switch between operation interfaces by detecting the end point of a touch operation in a designated area, determining the appropriate interface based on the position relationship, and displaying the corresponding interface, optionally with prompts for correction.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If traditional switch methods are used to change operation interfaces, then interface switching capability is achieved, but operation steps increase and efficiency decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The system pre-arranges multiple operation interfaces within a single notification area and uses the touch operation endpoint position to automatically determine which interface to display. This preliminary setup eliminates the need for users to perform additional switching actions, directly reducing operation steps while maintaining efficient interface access.
2Area of stationary object
If multiple operation interfaces are hidden in the notification area, then screen space is utilized efficiently, but user access to specific interfaces becomes complex
Solution Approach 1:
Different regions within the notification area are assigned different functions: the left subarea corresponds to the notification interface while the right subarea corresponds to the on/off interface. This local differentiation allows the system to maintain compact screen space utilization while enabling users to access specific interfaces through simple directional touch operations without increasing access complexity.

AI summary
A method and an apparatus for displaying an operation interface, and a touchscreen terminal, where the method includes: receiving a first pull-down operation in a first set area on a touchscreen; displaying a first operating interface; receiving a second pull-down operation in the second set area on a touchscreen; displaying a second operating interface, wherein display width of the second operating interface is the same as display width of the first operating interface, which is the same as width of the touchscreen.
