In-Vehicle Application Window Layout With Dynamic Queue Overlap
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing in-vehicle display screens have fixed display zones that cannot satisfy user customization, limiting the flexibility and efficiency of application window arrangements.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus for adjusting application window layouts on an in-vehicle terminal by receiving editing operations and utilizing a window queue for continuous adjacent arrangement, dynamically updating the layout based on user interactions, and ensuring overlap with the display interface to enhance adaptability and visual experience.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a fixed display zone is used for in-vehicle display screens, then the device structure is simple, but the adaptability and flexibility of application window arrangements are limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic display zone adjustment by allowing application windows to be freely arranged and resized within the display area. The display zone transitions from a fixed structure to a dynamic one where window positions, sizes, and arrangements can be modified in real-time based on user needs and application requirements, thereby improving adaptability without significantly increasing system complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The display area is segmented into multiple independent application windows that can be individually positioned and sized. Each window operates as an independent unit within the overall display zone, allowing flexible arrangement and configuration. This segmentation enables the system to accommodate different application sizes and types while maintaining overall display coherence
2Productivity
If multiple application windows are arranged in a transverse direction, then the display efficiency is improved, but the layout complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic layout adjustment where multiple application windows can be freely arranged in the transverse direction based on user needs. The system automatically manages window positions, sizes, and overlaps, allowing high display efficiency for multiple applications while abstracting away the complexity of layout arrangement from the user through automated management mechanisms
3Adaptability or versatility
If the window queue zone overlaps with the display interface, then the adaptability of window arrangement is improved, but the display area is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a nested structure where the window queue zone and display interface overlap and interpenetrate. The window queue manages application windows while the display interface presents content to users, and these two functional zones are nested within each other spatially. This nesting allows the system to maintain flexible window arrangement capabilities while minimizing the loss of display area, as the overlapping regions serve dual purposes

AI summary
The invention relates to the field of electronic technologies, and particularly relates to a method and apparatus for displaying an application, a medium, an in-vehicle terminal, and a vehicle. The method includes: receiving (5101) an application window editing operation for a current display interface; and adjusting (5102) an application window layout of the current display interface according to the application window editing operation and a window queue. The window queue is configured for continuous adjacent arrangement of n application windows in the current display interface, and a status of the window queue is dynamically updated with change of the application window layout. At least part of a zone of the window queue overlaps a display interface of an in-vehicle terminal, so as to ensure that the application windows in the window queue are displayed in the current display interface.
