Window Display Transparency Adjustment for Small Screen Visibility
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional window display systems on computers and mobile devices lack dynamic adjustment capabilities, leading to inconvenient user experiences, especially on small screens where virtual keyboards obstruct viewable windows, hindering personalized settings and usability.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus for dynamically adjusting window display status by receiving user input with adjustment parameters, determining the corresponding application, and modifying display attributes such as contrast, luminance, and transparency, allowing users to customize window appearances without closing foreground windows.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a virtual keyboard is displayed as foreground on a small screen device, then input functionality is provided, but the background window visibility is blocked
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies transparency adjustment to change the visual property of the foreground window (virtual keyboard or entering window). By modifying the transparency parameter, the foreground window becomes partially transparent, allowing users to see the background window content through it. This resolves the contradiction by maintaining the foreground window's input functionality while reducing its visual blocking effect on the background window.
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple windows are opened on a small screen, then application functionality is enhanced, but window display space is insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent enables users to adjust the transparency of foreground windows to optimize the display space utilization. By making foreground windows transparent or semi-transparent, multiple windows can be effectively displayed simultaneously on a small screen without requiring additional physical space, thus enhancing application functionality while accommodating screen size constraints.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces dynamic adjustment capability for window transparency, allowing users to change the transparency level of foreground windows based on their needs. This dynamic property enables flexible adaptation of the display interface to accommodate multiple windows on a small screen, resolving the space limitation while maintaining enhanced application functionality.
3Device complexity
If a single default display status is used, then system simplicity is maintained, but user personalization requirements are hampered
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces adjustable transparency parameters for window display status. Users can modify the transparency parameter of foreground windows according to their personal preferences and specific usage scenarios. This parameter adjustment capability enables user personalization while maintaining relatively simple system architecture, as it builds upon existing window management functionality by adding a configurable transparency attribute.
Data Source
AI summary
The invention discloses a method for adjusting a window display status, which relates to a technology for adjusting the window display status while facilitating an adjustment for the existing window display status. The method includes: receiving an instruction including an adjustment parameter and a window ID; determining an application corresponding to the window ID based on the window ID, wherein the application having a corresponding window once the application is executed; and adjusting a display status item in the application window based on the adjustment parameter. The present invention further discloses an apparatus for implementing the method as described above.
