Voting Interface for Online Collaborative Documents
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current online collaborative document systems lack a voting function, leading to inefficient negotiation and voting processes among users, resulting in cumbersome document processing.
Innovation Solution
A method and device for processing online collaborative documents that generate a voting interface with a voting subject, options, and buttons, allowing users to vote and display expression icons, improving the efficiency of document processing by enabling intuitive voting.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If online collaborative documents do not include a voting function, then the system structure remains simple, but users must negotiate and vote repeatedly through cumbersome processes, resulting in low processing efficiency
Solution Approach 1:
The voting function is embedded directly into the document editing interface, allowing users to initiate voting actions immediately when needed during document collaboration, rather than requiring separate negotiation processes. This preliminary integration of voting capability eliminates the need for repeated external negotiations and improves processing efficiency
Solution Approach 2:
The online collaborative document system integrates multiple functions including editing, voting, and result display within a single unified interface. This multi-functionality allows the system to handle both document collaboration and decision-making processes without requiring separate systems, thereby improving efficiency while managing complexity through integration
2Ease of operation
If users negotiate and vote repeatedly without a voting function, then the system remains simple in structure, but the operation process becomes cumbersome and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The voting process is segmented into distinct visual elements including voting options, expression icons, and result displays that are distributed throughout the document interface. This segmentation allows users to interact with voting functions at specific locations within the document, making the operation more convenient and reducing the time needed for negotiation and voting
3Productivity
If a voting function is integrated into the document system, then voting efficiency improves, but the interface and system complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
Voting functions are implemented with local quality by placing voting options, expression icons, and result displays at specific locations within the document structure. Each voting element is tailored to its local context, allowing efficient voting operations while maintaining a clean interface by only displaying relevant voting elements where needed

AI summary
A method and a device for processing an online collaborative document are provided. In the method, a voting type selection interface is generated in response to detecting that a voting trigger event occurs in the online collaborative document. A voting edition interface is generated in accordance with a target voting type selected through the voting type selection interface. A voting interface is generated in accordance with content inputted through the voting edition interface, where the voting interface includes a voting subject, a voting option and a voting button corresponding to the voting option. The voting interface is sent to at least one user terminal corresponding to the online collaborative document. A first expression icon is displayed at a first position corresponding to the voting option, in accordance with a selection instruction inputted through the user terminal.
