Interactive Whiteboard File Exhibition Overlay
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The operation of interactive whiteboards is complicated when exhibiting multiple files, leading to inefficient file switching and poor information transmission during presentations.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus for operating interactive whiteboards that include a file exhibition window on the whiteboard application interface, allowing users to browse and display files without leaving the main interface, with features like page turning, screenshot capture, and display adjustments, enabling seamless integration of file exhibition and writing operations.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the whiteboard application is minimized or exited to exhibit files, then the file can be displayed, but the operation process becomes complicated and information transmission is interrupted
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines the file exhibition window with the whiteboard application interface, allowing both file display and whiteboard operations to coexist in the same interface. This eliminates the need to minimize or exit the whiteboard application when exhibiting files, thereby simplifying the operation process and reducing time loss.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent segments the interface into multiple layers, including the whiteboard application interface layer and the file exhibition window layer. This layered structure allows the file exhibition window to be overlaid on the whiteboard interface without interfering with whiteboard operations, enabling simultaneous file display and whiteboard functionality.
2Reliability
If the whiteboard application is minimized or exited to exhibit files, then the file can be displayed, but information transmission smoothness deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the file exhibition window with the whiteboard application interface, allowing presenters to exhibit files and perform whiteboard operations (such as annotations and insertions) simultaneously without interrupting information transmission. This continuous operation maintains smooth information flow to the audience.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent enables continuous useful action by allowing the whiteboard application to remain active and responsive during file exhibition. Presenters can continuously perform writing and insertion operations on the whiteboard interface while files are displayed in the overlay window, ensuring uninterrupted information transmission.
3Adaptability or versatility
If multiple files are exhibited by minimizing/exitting the whiteboard application, then file switching is achieved, but the operation process becomes complicated
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the file exhibition into separate overlay windows that can be independently controlled and switched. Each file can be displayed in its own window on the whiteboard interface, allowing easy switching between files without complex minimize/maximize operations. The layered structure enables straightforward file management and switching.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates a universal file exhibition window that can display various types of files (documents, images, webpages) while maintaining the same interface and operation methods. This multi-functional window handles different file types uniformly, simplifying the operation process regardless of the file being exhibited.

AI summary
The present disclosure provides a method, an apparatus, a terminal device, and a storage medium for operating an interactive white board. The method includes receiving a file exhibition operation that occurs on a whiteboard application interface, opening a file exhibition window, displaying, in the file exhibition window, a file selected according to the file exhibition operation, and placing the file exhibition window on the whiteboard application interface, receiving a writing operation that occurs on the whiteboard application interface, and according to the writing operation, generating a writing trajectory on the whiteboard application interface.
