Detailed Description

To make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present disclosure more apparent, embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Reference will now be made in detail to the exemplary embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, like numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The implementations described in the exemplary embodiments below are not intended to represent all implementations consistent with the present disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the present disclosure, as detailed in the appended claims.

Conventionally, when a user sees some content of interest in the terminal in a user interface (such as a news interface, an application interface, etc.) and a search request is generated, the user may press and copy the content for a long time, and then the user may open a browser or other application and paste the copied content into a search box of the browser or other application for searching.

For example, as shown in fig. 1-1, when the user views the word "xiao dang pear soup" and wants to search for the "xiao dang pear soup" to obtain more information while browsing a certain user interface, the user may press the "xiao dang pear soup" for a long time and copy the option 10 in an option box popped up after the long press, thereby copying the "xiao dang pear soup". Then, the user may close the currently displayed user interface and open the browser, as shown in fig. 1-2, after opening the browser, the user may paste the "xiao dang pear soup" into the search box 20, and search with the "xiao dang pear soup" as a search keyword.

In order to solve the problem, the embodiment of the disclosure provides an information display method, in the method, a user can trigger a terminal to search for content only by long pressing or other operations on the content of interest of the user, and then the terminal can display a search result of the content in a superimposed manner in a currently displayed user interface, so that the user can search for the content of interest of the user without interface switching, copying, pasting and other operations, the search flow is simplified, and the search efficiency is improved.

Fig. 1 to 3 are flowcharts illustrating an information display method according to an exemplary embodiment, which is used in a terminal, as shown in fig. 1 to 3, and includes the following steps.

Step 101, a terminal displays a user interface of an application program, wherein the user interface comprises at least one interface element.

102, the terminal receives a selection operation triggered on the user interface, wherein the selection operation is used for selecting a target interface element in at least one interface element.

And 103, the terminal displays the search result information in a local area of the user interface in an overlapping mode, wherein the search result information is the search result information corresponding to the target interface element.

To sum up, according to the information display method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, after receiving a selection operation triggered on a user interface, a terminal displays search result information corresponding to a target interface element selected by the selection operation in a superimposed manner in a local area of the user interface, so that when a user sees some content of interest on the user interface and a search requirement is generated, the user can obtain the search result information of the content of interest in the user interface only by performing the selection operation, thereby greatly simplifying a search process and improving search efficiency.

Fig. 2-1 is a flowchart illustrating an information display method according to an exemplary embodiment, which is used in a terminal, as shown in fig. 2-1, including the following steps.

Step 201, the terminal displays a user interface of the application program, wherein the user interface comprises at least one interface element.

It should be noted that the interface elements may include elements such as characters and pictures, and this is not specifically limited in this disclosure.

Step 202, the terminal receives a selection operation triggered on the user interface, wherein the selection operation is used for selecting a target interface element in at least one interface element.

The selection operation may be a long-press operation, and the long-press operation refers to an operation in which a touch duration exceeds a preset duration. Of course, in practical applications, the selecting operation may also be other forms of operations, and this is not specifically limited in this disclosure.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, when a user sees content in which the user is interested in the user interface and wants to search for the content, the user may perform a selection operation on the user interface to select the content, for example, the user may perform a long-press operation on the content to select the content, and the selection operation on the user interface may trigger the terminal to search for the content selected by the selection operation. It should be noted that the "content of interest to the user" described herein is also the "target interface element" described above.

In this case, the terminal may search the target interface element, and after the search is finished, the search result information of the target interface element is displayed in a local area of the user interface in an overlapping manner, so that the search process of the user is simplified, and convenience is brought to the use of the terminal by the user.

And step 203, the terminal judges whether the user interface and the selection operation meet preset conditions.

As described above, when there is content in the user interface that is of interest to the user, the user may perform a selection operation to trigger the terminal to search for the content. However, in some cases, there may be no content in the user interface for which the user has a search requirement, and in this case, it is unlikely that the user performs a selection operation in the user interface to wish to search for the content in the user interface. In this case, if the selection operation still triggers the terminal to perform the search and displays the search result information in the local area of the user interface, on one hand, the terminal cannot provide valuable search result information for the user, on the other hand, the user may be bothered, and even the user may be affected by the normal use of the terminal.

In other cases, the terminal may be triggered to respond other times by a selection operation in the user interface, for example, the selection operation may trigger the terminal to display an interface element in the local area of the user interface, where the displayed interface element may include an operation option, text information, an interface, and the like. In this case, the terminal searches for the content in the user interface and displays the search result information in the local area of the user interface may block the interface element displayed in the local area, which may affect the user to view or operate the page element, thereby affecting the normal use of the terminal by the user.

In order to avoid that the search of the content, which is interesting to the user, in the user interface by the terminal affects the normal use of the terminal by the user, in the embodiment of the disclosure, after the terminal receives the selection operation triggered in the user interface, the terminal does not immediately search the target interface element selected by the selection operation, but first judges whether the user interface and the selection operation meet the preset condition, so as to determine the subsequent technical process to be executed by the terminal according to the judgment result, thereby avoiding that the search of the target interface element in the user interface by the terminal affects the normal use of the terminal by the user.

The terminal can judge whether the user interface is in a preset mode or not, and when the user is in the preset mode, the terminal can determine that the user interface does not meet the preset condition. Optionally, the preset mode may include a full screen mode, a system multi-selection editing mode, an input mode of a called-up input interface, and the like, and in practical application, the preset mode may further include other modes, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment of the disclosure.

Or, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the terminal may determine whether the user interface meets the preset condition, and may also determine whether the user interface is in a mode other than the preset mode for the terminal. In this case, when the user interface is in a mode other than the preset mode, the terminal may determine that the user interface satisfies the preset condition.

When the user interface is in a full-screen mode, the user interface is likely to be an interface of a video application, an interface of a game application or an interface of a cartoon application, at this time, content that the user has a search requirement is likely not to exist in the user interface, and displaying search result information when the user watches videos and plays games brings great trouble to the user.

When the user interface is in the system multi-selection editing mode, the user interface usually includes personal files of the user, and at this time, the content of the user with the search requirement is probably not present in the user interface. In addition, referring to fig. 2-2, fig. 2-2 is a schematic view of a user interface in a system multi-selection editing mode, as shown in fig. 2-2, in a general case, when a selection operation (such as a long press operation) is performed in the system multi-selection editing mode, a plurality of selection boxes K are displayed in the user interface, and a user can select at least one selection box K to realize batch multi-selection of personal files in the user interface, and at this time, if a terminal displays search result information in the user interface, the selection box K may be possibly blocked, so that batch multi-selection operation is affected.

When the user interface is in the input mode of the outgoing call input interface, the user is likely to need to enter text using the options in the input interface. Referring to fig. 2-3, fig. 2-3 are schematic diagrams of the user interface in the input mode of the called input interface, as shown in fig. 2-3, the area occupied by the input interface S in the user interface is large, and in practical applications, the area where the input interface S is located is likely to be an area where the terminal displays search result information, and at this time, if the terminal displays the search result information in the user interface, the input interface S is likely to be blocked, thereby affecting the user to perform text input. It should be noted that the above "call-out" refers to display or pop-up.

By combining the above analysis, when the user interface is in the preset mode, the terminal searches for the content in the user interface and displays the search result information in the local area of the user interface, which not only fails to provide valuable search result information for the user, but also brings influence to the normal use of the terminal by the user. Therefore, when the terminal receives a selection operation triggered on the user interface, whether the user interface is in a preset mode needs to be judged, whether the terminal needs to search a target interface element in the user interface or not is determined according to a judgment result, and search result information is displayed in a local area of the user interface.

In practical application, the terminal may query whether the user interface is in the preset mode based on an operating system carried by the terminal, which is not described in detail in the embodiment of the present disclosure.

In addition, the terminal determining whether the selection operation satisfies the preset condition may be that the terminal determines whether the selection operation is an operation of displaying an interface element in the local area of the user interface. When the selection operation is an operation of displaying an interface element in the local area of the user interface, the terminal determines that the selection operation does not satisfy a preset condition.

Or, the terminal may determine whether the selection operation satisfies the preset condition, and determine whether the selection operation is an operation other than an operation of displaying the interface element in the local area of the user interface. In this case, when the selection operation is an operation other than the operation of displaying the interface element in the partial area of the user interface, the terminal may determine that the selection operation satisfies the preset condition.

Because the local area is an area where the terminal displays the search result information on the user interface, if the selection operation is an operation of displaying an interface element in the local area of the user interface, the terminal displaying the search result information may possibly cause a shielding effect on the displayed interface element, and affect the user to view or operate the interface element, thereby affecting the normal use of the terminal by the user. It should be noted that the local area may be located at a bottom of the user interface, and the like, and this is not specifically limited in this disclosure.

Referring to fig. 2-4, when the terminal receives a long press operation triggered on the user interface N, an operation option C (interface element) may be displayed at the bottom of the user interface N. As can be seen from fig. 2 to 4, if the search result information is displayed in the area where the operation option C is displayed at the same time, the operation option C is inevitably blocked, so that the operation of the user on the operation option C is influenced, and the normal use of the terminal is influenced by the user.

Therefore, when the terminal receives a selection operation triggered on the user interface, it needs to judge whether the selection operation is an operation of displaying an interface element in a local area of the user interface, and determines whether the terminal needs to search a target interface element in the user interface and display search result information in the local area of the user interface according to a judgment result.

The following embodiments of the present disclosure will briefly describe a technical process of determining, by a terminal, whether a selection operation is an operation of displaying an interface element in a local area of a user interface, and it should be noted that the following description of the technical process is only exemplary and does not limit the present disclosure.

A1, the terminal acquires operation information of the selection operation, wherein the operation information comprises at least one of the identification of the application program, the identification of the user interface and the position of the selection operation on the user interface.

The technical process of the terminal for judging whether the selection operation is an operation of displaying an interface element in a local area of the user interface is briefly described only by taking the selection operation as a long-press operation as an example in the embodiment of the present disclosure, and the technical processes corresponding to other types of selection operations are the same as the technical processes corresponding to the selection operation as the long-press operation, and are not described herein again in the embodiment of the present disclosure.

In practical applications, the terminal may obtain the identifier of the user interface and the identifier of the application program to which the user interface belongs after receiving the long press operation triggered on the user interface, for example, as shown in fig. 1-1, when the terminal receives the long press operation triggered on the user interface on "xiao zhufang", the terminal may obtain the identifier "xiachufang" of the application program to which the user interface belongs and may obtain the identifier "20170228 litang" of the user interface, it is noted that the above identifiers "xiachufang" of the application program and "20170228 litang" of the user interface are merely exemplary.

In addition, the terminal may further acquire a position of the long press operation on the user interface, and in one embodiment of the present disclosure, the position of the long press operation on the user interface may be represented by a coordinate region of a corresponding pressing point of the long press operation on the user interface. For example, as shown in fig. 1-1, the long press operation position of the "Xiaodangli pear soup" is that the abscissa is less than 100 and greater than 80, and the ordinate is less than 80 and greater than 20, wherein the unit of the coordinate may be a pixel. It is noted that the above-described positions of the long press operation are also exemplary.

It should be further noted that, in practical applications, the terminal may obtain one or more of the identifier of the application program, the identifier of the user interface, and a position of the selection operation on the user interface, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment of the disclosure.

B1, the terminal determines whether the operation information of the selection operation is stored in the pre-configured blacklist database.

In practical application, a blacklist database may be pre-configured and stored in the terminal, where operation information of a target operation is stored in the blacklist database, where the target operation includes an operation that can trigger display of an interface element in a local area of a user interface. Table 1 shows an illustration of the operation information of the target operation stored in the blacklist database.

TABLE 1

It should be noted that the illustration in table 1 is merely exemplary and is not intended to limit the disclosure.

In practical application, the blacklist database may be configured by the server and issued to the terminal, and the terminal may periodically receive the update information of the blacklist database or the blacklist database sent by the server, or may send a blacklist acquisition request to the server so that the server sends the update information of the blacklist database or the blacklist database to the terminal after receiving the blacklist acquisition request.

In practical application, a blacklist database in the server may be configured by a technician according to a use condition of each user interface in the application program, or may be configured by the server after screenshot analysis is performed on each user interface in the application program, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment of the present disclosure.

In addition, the user may find some target operations that are not stored in the blacklist database when using the terminal, in which case the user may store operation information of the target operations in the blacklist database. Optionally, the user may send a blacklist storage instruction to the terminal for the target operation, where the blacklist storage instruction is used to instruct the terminal to store operation information (also referred to as target operation information) of the target operation in a blacklist database in the terminal. In some cases, the terminal may further send the target operation information to the server, the server may store the target operation information in a blacklist database stored in the server after receiving the target operation information, and then the server may send the blacklist database including the target operation information to other terminals, so that the other terminals may also synchronize the target operation information.

Of course, in practical applications, the terminal may not store the blacklist database, but only store the blacklist database by the server, in which case, the terminal may send the operation information of the selection operation to the server, and the server determines whether the operation information of the selection operation is stored in the blacklist database.

And C1, when the operation information of the selection operation is stored in the blacklist database, the terminal determines that the selection operation is an operation of displaying an interface element in a local area of the user interface.

As described above, since the operation information of the target operation is stored in the blacklist database, if the operation information of the selection operation is stored in the blacklist database, the terminal may determine that the selection operation is the target operation, that is, may determine that the selection operation is an operation of displaying an interface element in a local area of the user interface.

For example, if it is found by referring to the blacklist database shown in table 1 that the operation information "xiachufang", "20170228 litang" and "x-axis is less than 100 and greater than 80 and" x-axis is less than 80 and greater than 20 "for the long press operation of" small hang pear soup "in fig. 1-1 acquired in step a1 are stored in the blacklist database, the terminal may determine that the long press operation of" small hang pear soup "in fig. 1-1 is an operation of displaying an interface element in a local area of the user interface.

In addition, the embodiment of the present disclosure also provides a technical process in which the terminal determines whether the selection operation is an operation other than an operation of displaying an interface element in a local area of the user interface, and it should be noted that the following description of the technical process is only exemplary and is not intended to limit the present disclosure.

A2, the terminal acquires operation information of the selection operation.

It should be noted that the technical process of a2 is the same as the technical process of a1, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not described herein again.

B2, the terminal determines whether the operation information of the selection operation is stored in the white list database configured in advance.

In practical application, a white list database may be pre-configured and stored in the terminal, operation information that does not trigger the terminal to display an operation of an interface element in a local area of the user interface is stored in the white list database, and the content of the stored operation information is the same as that shown in table 1, and includes one or more of an identifier of an application program, an identifier of the user interface, and a position of a selection operation in the user interface.

In addition, when a user finds some operations which are not stored in the white list database when using the terminal, the user may also store the operation information of the operations in the white list database, and the storage process of the operations is the same as the process in which the user stores the target operation information in the black list database, and the details of the embodiment of the disclosure are not repeated here. Of course, in practical applications, the terminal may store only the white list database instead of the white list database, similarly to the above-mentioned black list database, in which case, the terminal may send the operation information of the selection operation to the server, and the server determines whether the operation information of the selection operation is stored in the white list database.

And C2, when the operation information of the selection operation is stored in the white list database, the terminal determines that the selection operation is other than the operation of displaying the interface element in the local area of the user interface.

As described above, since the white list database stores the operation information that does not trigger the terminal to display the operation of the interface element in the local area of the user interface, the terminal can determine that the selection operation is an operation other than the operation of displaying the interface element in the local area of the user interface if the operation information of the selection operation is stored in the white list database.

Of course, in practical applications, the terminal may also determine whether the selection operation is an operation other than an operation of displaying the interface element in the local area of the user interface by determining whether the operation information of the selection operation is stored in the blacklist database, and when the operation information of the selection operation is not stored in the blacklist database, the terminal may determine that the selection operation is an operation other than an operation of displaying the interface element in the local area of the user interface, which is the same as the above-described technical processes a1 to C1, and details of the embodiment of the present disclosure are not repeated here.

And 204, when the user interface and the selection operation meet the preset conditions, the terminal displays search result information in a superposition mode on a local area of the user interface, wherein the search result information is search result information corresponding to the target interface element.

In step 203, when the terminal determines that the user interface is in a mode other than the preset mode and determines that the selection operation is other than an operation of displaying the interface element in the local area of the user interface, that is, when the terminal determines that both the user interface and the selection operation satisfy the preset condition, the terminal may display the search result information in the local area of the user interface in an overlapping manner.

According to the analysis, when the user interface and the selection operation meet the preset conditions, the terminal searches for the target interface element in the user interface, and the search result information is displayed in the local area of the user interface, so that the user can not influence the normal use of the terminal.

Therefore, in this case, the terminal may obtain the target interface element selected by the selection operation, and then the terminal may send the target interface element to the server, and the server performs a search using the target interface element as a keyword, and sends the search result information to the terminal. After receiving the search result information, the terminal may display the search result information in a local area of the user interface, and in one embodiment of the present disclosure, the terminal may display at least one display frame in the local area to display the search result information in the display frame.

For example, as shown in fig. 2 to 5, after the terminal receives a long press operation on "xiao dang pear soup" triggered on the user interface, and the terminal determines that both the user interface and the long press operation meet preset conditions, at this time, the terminal may send the "xiao dang pear soup" as a search keyword to the server, the server searches for the "xiao dang pear soup", the terminal may display a display frame Z at the bottom of the user interface after receiving search result information of the server on the "xiao dang pear soup", and display the search result information of the server on the "xiao dang pear soup" in the display frame Z.

It should be noted that, the terminal may execute the above technical process of displaying the search result information in the local area of the user interface in an overlapping manner through its own operating system, which is not described in detail in this embodiment of the disclosure.

When the terminal determines that the user interface is in the preset mode, or the terminal determines that the selection operation is an operation of displaying an interface element in the local area of the user interface, that is, when the terminal determines that the user interface or the selection operation does not satisfy the preset condition, the terminal may prohibit the search result information from being displayed in an overlapping manner on the local area of the user interface, and at this time, the terminal needs to execute the technical processes of step 205 to step 208.

And step 205, when the user interface is in the preset mode, the terminal forbids to superpose and display the search result information on the local area of the user interface.

According to the analysis, when the user interface is in the preset mode, the terminal searches for the target interface element in the user interface and displays the search result information in the local area of the user interface, so that valuable search result information cannot be provided for the user, and influence is brought to normal use of the terminal by the user. Therefore, in this case, the terminal may not perform an operation of acquiring the target interface element selected by the selection operation in the user interface, and also may not perform an operation of transmitting the target interface element to the server for searching, while performing no operation of displaying search result information superimposed on a partial area of the user interface.

And step 206, when the selection operation does not meet the preset condition, the terminal judges whether the target interface element selected by the selection operation contains the content which needs to be searched by the user.

In some cases, when the selection operation is an operation of displaying an interface element in a partial area of the user interface, that is, when the selection operation does not satisfy a preset condition, the user may perform the selection operation on the user interface only in a manner of wishing to display the interface element, and does not wish to search for a target interface element. In other cases, when the selection operation is an operation of displaying an interface element in a local area of the user interface, that is, when the selection operation does not satisfy a preset condition, the user may desire to display the interface element and search for a target interface element by performing the selection operation on the user interface. In order to meet different requirements of users, when the terminal selects an operation of displaying interface elements in a local area of a user interface, whether a target interface element selected by the selection operation contains content which needs to be searched by the user needs to be judged.

The following embodiments of the present disclosure will briefly describe a technical process of determining, by a terminal, whether a target interface element selected by a selection operation contains a content that a user needs to search for, and it should be noted that the following description of the technical process is only exemplary and is not intended to limit the present disclosure.

A3, the terminal inquires the blacklist database based on the operation information of the selection operation.

In practical application, a blacklist database configured in advance in a terminal stores, in addition to operation information of a target operation, search instruction information of the target operation, where the search instruction information is used to instruct whether an interface element selected by the target operation contains content that a user needs to search. Table 2 shows an illustration of the contents stored in the blacklist database in one embodiment of the present disclosure.

TABLE 2

It should be noted that the illustration in table 2 is merely exemplary and is not intended to limit the disclosure.

When the selection operation is an operation of displaying an interface element in a local area of the user interface, the operation information of the selection operation is certainly stored in the blacklist database, and at this time, the terminal can query the blacklist database according to the operation information of the selection operation and acquire search indication information corresponding to the operation information of the selection operation.

And B3, the terminal judges whether the target interface element contains the content which needs to be searched by the user based on the searched searching indication information.

When the search instruction information acquired by the terminal is 'including', the terminal determines that the target interface element selected by the selection operation contains the content that the user needs to search, and when the search instruction information acquired by the terminal is 'not including', the terminal determines that the target interface element selected by the selection operation does not contain the content that the user needs to search.

In practical application, operations to be executed by the terminal corresponding to the search indication information may also be directly stored in the blacklist database, which is not specifically limited in this disclosure.

And step 207, when the target interface element selected by the selection operation contains the content which needs to be searched by the user, the terminal displays a floating window at the specified position of the user interface, wherein the floating window is used for providing an interface for displaying the search result information on the local area of the user interface in an overlapping manner.

When the target interface element selected by the selection operation contains the content which needs to be searched by the user, in order to prevent the display of the search result information from influencing the normal use of the terminal by the user and ensure that the user can view the search result information of the target interface element in the user interface, the embodiment of the disclosure can display a floating window at the designated position of the user interface, and the floating window is used for providing an interface for displaying the search result information on the local area of the user interface in an overlapping manner. In addition, after the terminal detects the triggering operation of the suspension window, the search result information of the target interface element can be displayed in the local area of the user interface in a superposed manner, so that the user can conveniently watch the search result information of the target interface element by triggering the suspension window, and convenience is brought to the use of the terminal by the user.

As shown in fig. 2-6, which are schematic diagrams of a floating window, when a terminal receives a long press operation triggered on a user interface, and determines that the long press operation is an operation of displaying an operation option C at the bottom of the user interface, and at the same time, the terminal also determines that a target interface element selected by the long press operation contains content that a user needs to search, at this time, the terminal may display a floating window F, the floating window F is located at the edge of the bottom of the user interface and does not block the operation option C, after the user clicks the floating window F, the terminal may display at least one display frame at the bottom of the user interface in an overlapping manner, and display search result information in the display frame, where a shape of the display frame is similar to a shape of the display frame in fig. 2-5.

And step 208, when the target interface element selected by the selection operation does not contain the content which needs to be searched by the user, the terminal prohibits the search result information from being displayed in an overlapping mode on the local area of the user interface.

In this case, in order to avoid that the terminal provides the user with worthless search result information and to avoid affecting the normal use of the terminal by the user, the terminal may not perform an operation of displaying the search result information in a partial area of the user interface in an overlapping manner.

Further, after receiving a selection operation triggered on the user interface, the terminal may not immediately search for a target interface element selected by the selection operation, but determine whether the user interface and the selection operation meet preset conditions, and display search result information of the target interface element in a local area of the user interface only when the user interface and the selection operation meet the preset conditions, thereby preventing the display of the search result information from affecting normal use of the terminal by the user.
