Contact/motion module 130 optionally detects the gesture input of user.Different gestures on touch sensitive surface have difference Contact mode (for example, the different motion of detected contact, timing and/or intensity).Therefore, special optionally by detection Determine contact mode and carrys out detection gesture.For example, detection singly refers to that Flick gesture includes detection finger down event, then pressed with finger Detection finger lifts and (is lifted away from) thing at (for example, at picture mark position) the identical position (or substantially the same position) of lower event Part.For another example, detecting the finger on touch sensitive surface and gently sweeping gesture includes detection finger down event, then detects one or more hands Refer to drag events, and then detection finger lifts and (be lifted away from) event.Similarly, by detect stylus specific contact patterns come The tap of stylus is optionally detected, gently sweeps, drag and other gestures.

In some embodiments, detect that finger Flick gesture depends on detecting that finger down event is lifted with finger Time span between event, but the finger contact strength between finger down event and digit up event is unrelated.? In some embodiments, it is less than according to the time span determined between finger down event and digit up event predetermined It is worth (for example, less than 0.1,0.2,0.3,0.4 or 0.5 second), detects Flick gesture, the intensity contacted but regardless of finger during tap Whether given intensity threshold (be greater than Nominal contact detection intensity threshold value), such as light press or deep pressing intensity threshold are reached. Therefore, finger Flick gesture can satisfy specific input standard, which does not require the characteristic strength of contact to meet Intensity threshold is given to meet specific input standard.For clarity, the finger contact in Flick gesture usually requires to meet mark Claim contact detection intensity threshold value to detect finger down event, when being lower than the Nominal contact detection intensity threshold value, will not detect To contact.Similar analysis is suitable for through stylus or other contact detection Flick gestures.It is able to detect in equipment in touch-sensitive table In the case that the finger or stylus to hover above face contacts, Nominal contact detection intensity threshold value optionally not with finger or stylus with Physical contact between touch sensitive surface is corresponding.

Same concept is suitable for other kinds of gesture in a similar manner.For example, can based on for include in gesture Contact intensity is unrelated or the satisfaction that does not require the contact for executing gesture to reach intensity threshold so as to identified standard Optionally gesture, kneading gesture, expansion gesture and/or long pressing gesture are gently swept in detection.For example, gently sweeping gesture is based on one or more The amount of the movement of a contact detects；Scaling gesture is detected based on two or more movements of contact towards each other；Expansion is let go Gesture contacts movement away from each other based on two or more to detect；And long pressing gesture is based on having on touch sensitive surface few It is detected in duration of the contact of amount of threshold shift.Do not require contact strength full accordingly, with respect to certain gestures criterion of identification The corresponding intensity threshold of foot means that certain gestures criterion of identification can be in gesture to meet the statement of certain gestures criterion of identification In contact be satisfied when being not up to corresponding intensity threshold, and can also reach in one or more contacts in gesture or It is satisfied in the case where more than corresponding intensity threshold.In some embodiments, it is examined in time predefined section based on determining Finger down event and digit up event are measured to detect Flick gesture, without considering that contact is during time predefined section Gesture gently is swept to detect greater than predefined magnitude above or below corresponding intensity threshold, and based on determining that contact is mobile, Even if it is also such that contact, which is higher than corresponding intensity threshold, at the end of contacting mobile.Even if being executed in the detection to gesture (for example, equipment is quickly when the intensity of contact is higher than intensity threshold in the specific implementation of the influence of the intensity of the contact of gesture Detect long pressing, or when the intensity of contact is higher, equipment can postpone the detection to tap input), as long as contacting not The standard that can satisfy identification gesture in the case where reaching certain strength threshold value, then will not require to connect to the detection of these gestures Touching reaches certain strength threshold value (for example, even if time quantum needed for identification gesture changes).

In some cases, contact strength threshold value, duration threshold and mobile threshold value carry out group with various various combinations It closes, distinguishes gestures different for two or more of identical input element or region to create heuritic approach, so that The set of richer user interaction and response is capable of providing with multiple and different interactions of identical input element.It is specific about one group Gesture identification standard does not require the intensity of contact to meet corresponding intensity threshold to meet the statement of certain gestures criterion of identification not It excludes that other intensity related gesture criterion of identification are carried out while being assessed, to identify that with gesture is worked as include having to be higher than accordingly by force Spend other gestures for the standard being satisfied when the contact of the intensity of threshold value.For example, in some cases, first gesture it is first-hand Gesture criterion of identification (it does not require the intensity of contact to meet corresponding intensity threshold to meet first gesture criterion of identification) and second Second gesture criterion of identification (it depends on the contact for reaching respective strengths threshold value) competition of gesture.In such competition, such as The second gesture criterion of identification standard first of fruit second gesture is met, then gesture is not identified as optionally meeting first-hand The first gesture criterion of identification of gesture.For example, if contact reaches corresponding intensity before the mobile predefined amount of movement of contact Threshold value then detects deep pressing gesture rather than gently sweeps gesture.On the contrary, if being connect before contact reaches corresponding intensity threshold The mobile predefined amount of movement of touching then detects and gently sweeps gesture rather than deep pressing gesture.Even in this case, first-hand The first gesture criterion of identification of gesture does not require the intensity of contact to meet corresponding intensity threshold still to meet first gesture identification Standard, because if contact keeps below corresponding intensity threshold until gesture terminates (for example, phase will not be increased to above by having That answers the contact of the intensity of intensity threshold gently sweeps gesture), gesture will be identified as gently sweeping gesture by first gesture criterion of identification.Cause This, does not require the intensity of contact to meet corresponding intensity threshold to meet the certain gestures criterion of identification of certain gestures criterion of identification Will (A) in some cases, ignore relative to the contact strength (for example, for Flick gesture) of intensity threshold and/or (B) in some cases, if before certain gestures criterion of identification identifies gesture corresponding with input, the intensity of one group of competition Related gesture criterion of identification (for example, for pressing gesture deeply) input is identified as it is corresponding with intensity related gesture, then not It is able to satisfy certain gestures criterion of identification (for example, for long pressing gesture), in this sense, still depends on phase For the contact strength (for example, for long pressing gesture of deep pressing gesture competition identification) of intensity threshold.

As used herein, term " focus selector " refers to the user interface for being used to indicate that user is just interacting therewith The input element of current portions.In some specific implementations for including cursor or other positions label, cursor serves as " focus selection Device ", so that when cursor is above particular user interface element (for example, button, window, sliding block or other users interface element) Detect input (for example, pressing on touch sensitive surface (for example, touch sensitive surface 451 in touch tablet 355 or Fig. 4 B in Fig. 3) Input) in the case where, which is adjusted according to detected input.It is including making it possible to realize With the touch-screen display of the user interface element on touch-screen display directly interacted (for example, the touch-sensitive display in Figure 1A Touch screen in device system 112 or Fig. 4 A) some specific implementations in, " focus choosing is served as in the contact detected on the touchscreen Select device " so that working as on touch-screen display in particular user interface element (for example, button, window, sliding block or other users Interface element) position at detect input (for example, by contact pressing input) when, adjusted according to detected input Whole particular user interface element.In some specific implementations, focus is moved to user interface from a region of user interface Another region, the movement of the contact in correspondence movement or touch-screen display without cursor is (for example, by using tabulation Focus is moved to another button from a button by key or arrow key)；In these specific implementations, focus selector is according to coke It puts the movement between the different zones of user interface and moves.The concrete form that focus selector is taken, focus are not considered Selector is usually from user's control to transmit with the desired interaction of the user of user interface (for example, by indicating to equipment The user of user interface it is expected the element interacted) user interface element (or contact on touch-screen display). For example, when detecting pressing input on touch sensitive surface (for example, touch tablet or touch screen), focus selector (for example, cursor, Contact or choice box) position above the corresponding button will indicate that user it is expected to activate the corresponding button (rather than device display On the other users interface element that shows).

As used in the present specification and claims, " intensity " of the contact on term touch sensitive surface refers to touching The power or pressure (power of per unit area) of contact (for example, finger contact or stylus contact) on sensitive surfaces, or refer to touch-sensitive The power of contact on surface or the sub (surrogate) of pressure.The intensity of contact has value range, which includes at least Four different values and more typically include a different values up to a hundred (for example, at least 256).The intensity of contact optionally makes (or measurement) is determined with the combination of various methods and various sensors or sensor.For example, below touch sensitive surface or adjacent In touch sensitive surface one or more force snesors optionally for measurement touch sensitive surface on difference at power.In some tools During body is implemented, the power measurement from multiple force sensors is merged (for example, weighted average or adduction), to determine connecing for estimation Touch.Similarly, pressure of the pressure-sensitive top of stylus optionally for determining stylus on touch sensitive surface.Alternatively, touch-sensitive The size of the contact area detected on surface and/or its variation, contact near touch sensitive surface capacitor and/or its variation with And/or the touch sensitive surface near person's contact resistance and/or power of contact for being optionally used as on touch sensitive surface of its variation or The substitute of pressure.In some specific implementations, the substitute measurement of contact force or pressure, which is directly used in, to determine whether to have surpassed Cross intensity threshold (for example, intensity threshold is described to correspond to the unit that substitute measures).In some specific implementations, it will connect Touch or the substitution measured value of pressure, which are converted to, estimates power or pressure, and power is estimated in use or pressure determines whether to be more than strong Degree threshold value (for example, intensity threshold is the pressure threshold measured with pressure unit).The intensity of contact is used to input as user Attribute, so that user can indicated and/or receive for showing (for example, on the touch sensitive display) by allowing user to access user Input the area on the spot of (for example, via touch-sensitive display, touch sensitive surface or physical control/machinery control such as knob or button) The optional equipment function that cannot be easily accessed originally in limited smaller equipment.

In some embodiments, contact/motion module 130 determines operation using one group of one or more intensity threshold Whether (for example, determining that whether user " clicks " icon) is executed by user.In some embodiments, according to software parameter Come determine intensity threshold at least one subset (for example, intensity threshold is not determined by the activation threshold of specific physical actuation device, And it can be adjusted in the case where not changing the physical hardware of equipment 100).For example, not changing Trackpad or touch screen is shown In the case where device hardware, mouse " click " threshold value of Trackpad or touch-screen display can be arranged to the big model of predefined thresholds Any one threshold value in enclosing.In addition, the user of equipment is provided with for adjusting in one group of intensity threshold in some specific implementations One or more intensity thresholds (for example, by adjusting each intensity threshold and/or by utilizing the system to " intensity " parameter Grade click comes the multiple intensity thresholds of Primary regulation) software setting.

As used in the specification and in the claims, " characteristic strength " of contact this term refers to one based on contact The feature of the contact of a or multiple intensity.In some embodiments, characteristic strength is based on multiple intensity samples.Characteristic strength is appointed Selection of land is based on (for example, after detecting contact, before detecting that contact is lifted away from, detecting relative to predefined event Before or after contact start is mobile, before detecting that contact terminates, before or after detecting that the intensity of contact increases And/or detect contact intensity reduce before or after) in the predetermined period (for example, 0.05 second, 0.1 Second, 0.2 second, 0.5 second, 1 second, 2 seconds, 5 seconds, 10 seconds) during acquire predefined quantity intensity sample or one group of intensity sample. The characteristic strength of contact is optionally based on one or more of the following terms: the maximum value of contact strength, contact strength it is equal Value, the average value of contact strength, contact strength preceding 10% at value, half maximum value of contact strength, contact strength 90% Maximum value, the value generated by the low-pass filtering contact strength in time predefined section or since time predefined etc..? In some embodiments, when determining characteristic strength using the duration of contact (for example, being the intensity contacted in characteristic strength When average value in time).In some embodiments, characteristic strength and one group of one or more intensity threshold are compared Compared with to determine whether user has executed operation.For example, the group one or more intensity threshold may include the first intensity threshold and Two intensity thresholds.In this example, the contact that characteristic strength is less than first threshold leads to the first operation, and characteristic strength is more than the One intensity threshold but the contact for being less than the second intensity threshold lead to the second operation, and characteristic strength is more than connecing for second threshold Touching causes third to operate.In some embodiments, come using the comparison between characteristic strength and one or more intensity thresholds Determine whether to execute one or more operations (such as, if execute respective selection or abandon executing corresponding operating), rather than The first operation or the second operation are executed for determining.

In some embodiments, identify a part of gesture for determining characteristic strength.For example, touch sensitive surface can connect Receipts continuously gently sweep contact, this is continuously gently swept contact from initial position transition and reaches end position (such as drag gesture), at this At end position, the intensity of contact increases.In this example, characteristic strength of the contact at end position can be based only upon continuous light It sweeps a part of contact, rather than entirely gently sweeps contact (for example, only a part for gently sweeping contact at end position).Some In embodiment, algorithm can be smoothed in the intensity application that the forward direction for the characteristic strength for determining contact gently sweeps gesture.For example, smooth Change algorithm and optionally include one of the following terms or a variety of: not weighting sliding average smoothing algorithm, triangle smoothing is calculated Method, median filter smoothing algorithm and/or exponential smoothing algorithm.In some cases, these smoothing algorithms eliminate The narrow spike or recess in the intensity of contact is swept, gently to realize the purpose for determining characteristic strength.

User interface map described herein optionally includes various intensity maps, these intensity illustrate connecing on touch sensitive surface Touching is relative to one or more intensity thresholds (for example, contact detection intensity threshold value IT₀, light press intensity threshold IT_L, deep press pressure Spend threshold value IT_D(for example, being at least initially higher than IT_L) and/or other one or more intensity thresholds (for example, comparing IT_LLow intensity Threshold value IT_H)) current intensity.The intensity map is not usually a part of shown user interface, but is provided to help Explain the figure.In some embodiments, light press intensity threshold corresponds to such intensity: equipment will be held under the intensity Row operation usually associated with the button for clicking physics mouse or Trackpad.In some embodiments, deep to press Compressive Strength threshold Value correspond to such intensity: under the intensity equipment will execute with usually with click physics mouse or Trackpad button it is related The different operation of the operation of connection.In some embodiments, when detect characteristic strength lower than light press intensity threshold (for example, And it is higher than Nominal contact detection intensity threshold value IT₀, the contact lower than Nominal contact detection intensity threshold value be no longer detected) When contact, equipment by according to movement of the contact on touch sensitive surface come moving focal point selector, without executing and flicking Compressive Strength Threshold value or the deep pressing associated operation of intensity threshold.In general, unless otherwise stated, otherwise these intensity thresholds in difference It is consistent between the user interface attached drawing of group.

In some embodiments, equipment depends on based on connecing during input the response of input detected by equipment Touch the standard of intensity.For example, being inputted for some " light press ", more than the intensity of the contact of the first intensity threshold during input The first response of triggering.In some embodiments, equipment depends on the response of the input as detected by equipment to include input The standard of the contact strength of period and time-based both criteria.For example, for some " deep to press " inputs, as long as meeting Pass through delay time between the second intensity threshold of first intensity threshold and satisfaction, the first of light press is exceeded more than during input The intensity of the contact of second intensity threshold of intensity threshold just triggers the second response.The duration of the delay time is usually less than (for example, 40ms, 100ms or 120ms, this depends on the magnitude of the second intensity threshold to 200ms (millisecond), wherein the delay time As the second intensity threshold increases and increase).The delay time helps to avoid unexpectedly to identify deep pressing input.For another example, for Some " deep pressing " inputs, the period that susceptibility reduction will occur after reaching the first intensity threshold.It is dropped in the susceptibility During the low period, the second intensity threshold increases.This temporary increase of second intensity threshold, which additionally aids, avoids unexpected depth Pressing input.For other pressing inputs deeply, time-based standard is not dependent on to the response for detecting deep pressing input.

In some embodiments, one or more of input intensity threshold value and/or corresponding output are based on one or more A factor (such as, user setting, contact movement, incoming timing, application program operation, rate when applying intensity, input simultaneously Quantity, user's history, environmental factor (for example, scene noise), focus selector position etc. and change.Illustrative factor exists It is described in U.S. Patent Application Serial Number 14/399,606 and 14/624,296, these U.S. Patent applications full text is to quote Mode is incorporated herein.

For example, in some embodiments, resistance to vibration threshold portion based on touch input intensity at any time and with Time change.Resistance to vibration threshold value is the summation of two components: predefined since being initially detected touch input The first component decayed at any time after delay time p1, and the second component of the intensity of touch input is tracked at any time.The The initial high-intensitive threshold value of one component reduces unexpected triggering " deep pressing " response, while still allowing for providing foot in touch input " deep pressing " response immediately is carried out in the case where enough intensity.Second component reduces the gradual strength fluctuation by touch input And inadvertent free " deep pressing " response.In some embodiments, the time point of resistance to vibration threshold value is met in touch input, " deep pressing " response is triggered.

In another example, in some embodiments, resistance to vibration threshold value is (for example, intensity threshold I_D) with two its He is intensity threshold (the first intensity threshold IT_HWith the second intensity threshold I_L) be used in combination.In some embodiments, although touching Input meets the first intensity threshold IT before time p2_HWith the second intensity threshold IT_L, but until by delay time p2 Response can be provided.In some embodiments, resistance to vibration threshold value decays at any time, wherein decay from the second intensity threshold IT_LIt is associated respond time point (for example, time p2) for being triggered begin to pass through after predefined delay time p1 when Between point start.Such resistance to vibration threshold value is reduced immediately in triggering and lower threshold intensity (such as the first intensity threshold IT_HOr the second intensity threshold I_L) after associated response or simultaneously unexpected triggering and resistance to vibration threshold value IT_DIt is associated Response.

In another example, in some embodiments, from touch input by initial detecting to begin to pass through delay After time p2, triggering and intensity threshold IT_LAssociated response.Meanwhile since touch input by initial detecting to through It crosses after predefined delay time p1, resistance to vibration threshold value is (for example, intensity threshold I_D) decaying.Therefore, in triggering and intensity Threshold value I_LThe intensity that touch input is reduced after associated response, then increases in the case where not discharging touch input and touches The intensity of input can trigger and intensity threshold IT_DAssociated response, even if the intensity when touch input is lower than another intensity threshold Value is (for example, intensity threshold I_L) when be also such.

Contact characteristic intensity is from lower than light press intensity threshold IT_LIntensity increase between light press intensity threshold IT_LWith Deep pressing intensity threshold IT_DBetween intensity be sometimes referred to as " light press " input.The characteristic strength of contact is from lower than deep pressing Intensity threshold IT_DIntensity increase to above deep pressing intensity threshold IT_DIntensity be sometimes referred to as " deep pressing " input.Contact is special Intensity is levied from lower than contact detection intensity threshold value IT₀Intensity increase between contact detection intensity threshold value IT₀With flicking Compressive Strength Threshold value IT_LBetween intensity be sometimes referred to as and detect contact on touch-surface.The characteristic strength of contact is examined from contact is higher than Survey intensity threshold IT₀Intensity be decreased below contact detection intensity threshold value IT₀Intensity sometimes referred to as detect contact from touching Surface is touched to be lifted away from.In some embodiments, IT₀It is zero.In some embodiments, IT₀Greater than zero in some diagrams, yin Shadow circle is oval for indicating the intensity of the contact on touch sensitive surface.In some diagrams, shadeless circle or ellipse are used for Indicate the corresponding contact on touch sensitive surface without the specified intensity accordingly contacted.

Herein in some embodiments, in response to detecting gesture or response including corresponding pressing input One or more operations are executed in detecting using corresponding pressing input performed by corresponding contact (or multiple contacts), wherein It is based at least partially on and detects that the intensity of the contact (or multiple contacts) increases to above pressing input intensity threshold value and detects It is inputted to the corresponding pressing.In some embodiments, in response to detecting that it is defeated that the intensity accordingly contacted increases to above pressing Enter intensity threshold to execute corresponding operating (for example, executing corresponding operating on " downward stroke " of corresponding pressing input).One In a little embodiments, pressing input includes that the intensity accordingly contacted increases to above pressing input intensity threshold value and the contact Intensity is decreased subsequently to lower than pressing input intensity threshold value, and in response to detecting that it is low that the intensity accordingly contacted is decreased subsequently to Threshold value is inputted in pressing to execute corresponding operating (for example, executing corresponding operating on " up stroke " of corresponding pressing input).

In some embodiments, equipment is lagged using intensity to avoid the accident input sometimes referred to as " shaken ", Middle equipment limits or selection has the lag intensity threshold of predefined relationship (for example, lag intensity with pressing input intensity threshold value Threshold value than the low X volume unit of pressing input intensity threshold value, or lag intensity threshold be pressing input intensity threshold value 75%, 90% or some rational proportion).Therefore, in some embodiments, pressing input includes that the intensity accordingly contacted increases to height It is decreased subsequently in the intensity of pressing input intensity threshold value and the contact lower than the lag for corresponding to pressing input intensity threshold value Intensity threshold, and in response to detecting that the intensity accordingly contacted is decreased subsequently to execute corresponding behaviour lower than lag intensity threshold Make (for example, executing corresponding operating on " up stroke " of corresponding pressing input).Similarly, in some embodiments, only It detects that contact strength is increased to from the intensity equal to or less than lag intensity threshold in equipment and is equal to or higher than pressing input by force Spend threshold value intensity and optionally contact strength be decreased subsequently to be equal to or less than lag intensity intensity when just detect by Pressure input, and hold in response to detecting pressing input (for example, according to scene, contact strength increases or contact strength reduces) Row corresponding operating.

In order to be easy to explain, be optionally in response to detect following situations and trigger in response to pressing input intensity threshold Be worth the description of associated pressing input or the operation executed in response to including the gesture of pressing input: the intensity of contact increases It is strong from pressing input is increased to above lower than the intensity for lagging intensity threshold to pressing input intensity threshold value, the intensity of contact is higher than Degree threshold value intensity, the intensity of contact be decreased below pressing input intensity threshold value or contact intensity be decreased below with by Press the corresponding lag intensity threshold of input intensity threshold value.In addition, describing the operations as in response to detecting that the intensity of contact subtracts It is small to lower than pressing input intensity threshold value and in the example that executes, be optionally in response to detect that the intensity of contact is decreased below Correspond to and is less than the lag intensity threshold of pressing input intensity threshold value to execute operation.As described above, in some embodiment party In case, the triggering of these operations is additionally depended on and meets time-based standard (for example, meeting the first intensity threshold and satisfaction Delay time is had been subjected between second intensity threshold).

User interface and associated process

It attention is directed to be used to detect and touch sensitive surface with display, touch sensitive surface and (optionally) It is realized on the electronic equipment of the one or more sensors of the intensity of contact such as portable multifunction device 100 or equipment 300 User interface (" UI ") and associated process embodiment.

Fig. 5 A to Fig. 5 D, which is shown, to be shown according to having for some embodiments and can indicate showing for (for example, home, which showing, to be indicated) Example property user interface, this, which shows, can indicate to be used for navigation gesture (for example, for navigating to home screen on instruction contact sensitive display screen Curtain user interface gesture) gesture start region.In some embodiments, it is also shown and is used for using method shown in this article Control or offer can be indicated about the showing for guidance of the other function or operation of equipment.User interface in these attached drawings is used for Illustrate procedures described below, including the process in Fig. 6 A to Fig. 6 C, Fig. 7 A to Fig. 7 E and Fig. 8 A to Fig. 8 F.For the ease of solution It releases, some implementations in embodiment will be discussed with reference to the operation executed in the equipment with touch-sensitive display system 112 Scheme.In such embodiment, focus selector is optionally: respective finger or stylus contact correspond to finger or stylus The representative point (for example, the center of gravity that accordingly contacts or with accordingly contact associated point) of contact or in touch-sensitive display system 112 The center of gravity of two or more detected contacts.

For the ease of explaining, by with reference in the equipment for not having home button the operation that executes discuss in embodiment Some embodiments, and release the user interface currently shown using the gesture for meeting predefined standard and show home On-screen user interface.It include home button in equipment in some embodiments although being not shown in figures 5a to 5d (for example, mechanical button, solid-state button or virtual push button), and the home button is used to release the user interface currently shown simultaneously Show home on-screen user interface.(inputting for example, pressing in response to individual palpation) and/or display multi-task user interface are (for example, response It is inputted in double pressures).

In figures 5a to 5d, when equipment shows any user interface, gesture since the bottom of screen (for example, In the predefined region of equipment, the edges of the predefined region proximity displays (e.g., including the close equipment bottom of display The fringe region of the predefined part (for example, 20 pixels are wide) at portion edge)) user interface navigation process is called, and be based on The speed of input and direction and the user interface object currently shown is optionally based on (for example, the user interface currently shown Diminution ratio indicate) moving parameter and feature optionally instruct the navigation between multiple user interfaces.

The exemplary user interface of the application program operated on an electronic device includes showing to indicate (for example, home shows energy Indicate that 5002) this, which shows, can indicate to provide a user the vision guide about the following terms: can start the fringe region of navigation gesture Position；And optionally, whether navigation is limited in the current mode of the application program currently shown (for example, not depositing Show and can indicate in the home of instruction following situations: navigating and be limited, and need confirmation input or the navigation gesture of enhancing (for example, Press and gently swept upwards after gently sweeping or touching upwards holding input after inputting) to be navigated between user interface (for example, such as Fig. 5 X is extremely Shown in Fig. 5 AA, wherein needing initial input to show again and show and can indicate, subsequent navigation gesture then can recognize)).Some In embodiment, home, which shows, can indicate activate or not do touch input directly in a manner of being similar to virtual push button It responds out.In some embodiments, using method described herein realize home show can indicate or other show can indicate sound Should be in touch input, which includes directly showing the contact on capable of indicating.

Fig. 5 A shows the web page browsing user interface of the content of display webpage 5004.Home, which shows, can indicate that 5002 is shown For a part for being covered on the content that the bottom margin of touch screen 112 is nearby shown.User interface navigation process is by contact 5006 Activation, which shows in home can indicate below 5002, start at the position on or near, and upward from the bottom of screen It advances, as shown in Fig. 5 A to Fig. 5 B.

In figure 5B, web page browsing user interface is by indicating 5008 generation of card of the web browser user interface in Fig. 5 A It replaces.In Fig. 5 A to Fig. 5 C, when input moves up on the screen, card 5008 is dynamically shunk, to show in the background The obscured views 5010 of home screen.In some embodiments, applied to the fuzzy quantity of home screen according to contact 5006 away from The distance of bottom of screen dynamically changes.

In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 5 B, when user interface navigation process is passed through the defeated of 5006 progress of contact When entering to activate, home, which shows, can indicate that 5002 stoppings are shown (for example, home, which shows, can indicate that 5006 can not directly be grasped by touch input It is vertical, and stop display when it has completed to provide a user the purpose about the vision guide of navigation gesture).When card 5008 Size it is sufficiently small when, other cards are (for example, card 5012 and 5014, respectively indicates and system control panel user interface and beat recently The user interface for the application program opened) it is shown in 5008 side of card.Optionally, input is terminated when showing multiple cards (for example, lift 5006) equipment is made to enter multi job mode (for example, display application program switch user interface, allows user to select from contact Application program is selected so that Web-browser application is replaced with foreground application).

In figure 5 c, when contact 5006 continues to move up and meets predefined home navigation standard (for example, contact 5006 predefined feature (for example, position, speed etc.) meets predefined thresholds) when, other cards on screen stop display, and And only card 5008 retains on the screen.When input terminates (for example, detecting being lifted away from for contact 5006), while only showing card 5008 (for example, being similar to user interface state shown in Fig. 5 C), equipment show home screen 5016, (example as shown in Figure 5 D Such as, dotted ellipse indicates that contact 5006 is lifted away from position).When showing home screen 6016 on touch screen 112, in touch screen On do not show that home shows and can indicate 5002.

Due in many scenes (for example, when show different application program or other systems grade user interface (for example, Notice central user interface, cover user interface, control panel user interface etc.) when) need to release user circle currently shown Face simultaneously goes to home screen, and home, which shows, can indicate that 5002 needs are shown in the background of all kinds, this can also be spontaneously or loud It should be manipulated in user and instantaneous and change over time.In addition, determining to start to navigate along the bottom edge region of touch screen When the position of gesture, the bigger freedom degree of user is given, therefore, home, which shows, can indicate that 5002 are configured to have biggish level Span has relatively small width to indicate the scalability of the conversion zone for gesture to avoid keeping screen excessively chaotic And unnecessary interference is caused to user.Therefore, though lower section content be at any time it is static, home, which shows, to be indicated under 5002 A part of the content of side may include color and brightness and other display properties in the different piece of a part of the content Variation.Therefore, in some embodiments, show each subdivision that can be indicated (for example, each pixel or each small pixel Cluster) appearance be based on be located at this show that the appearance of the content immediately below the subdivision that can be indicated (and optionally, extends slightly into Show the content except the boundary for the subdivision that can be indicated appearance (for example, by internally perhaps show can indicate apply obscure or Average effect)) come what is be individually determined.As shown in Figure 5A, home shows the one of the content 5004 that can indicate that 5002 are shown in webpage On part.A part of the content includes having the region of different luminance levels, and obtained home shows can indicate 5002 It further include the brightness change of (for example, horizontal extent) along its length.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 5e, by multiple images processing filters (for example, in order or not limiting The sequence of filter) it is applied to show the background content that can indicate lower section, the appearance that can be indicated is shown with determination.For example, by content Original full-colour image desaturation, to obtain the luminance graph of content.The brightness of content is inverted (for example, according to the brightness value of background With show predefined inverse relation between the brightness value that can be indicated (for example, inverse relation shown in Fig. 5 F, Fig. 5 R, Fig. 5 AE etc. One of)), shown with acquisition and shows the brightness value that can be indicated at each pixel that can be indicated.Show the brightness and lower section content that can be indicated Brightness between inverse relation be used as showing the corresponding relationship that can be indicated between the value of the selected display properties of lower section content Example.The variant of other kinds of display properties, such as gray value or brightness can also be used in various embodiments.

As shown in fig. 5e, be reversed in show can indicate between the content of lower section generate appearance comparison.When one of lower section content When dividing brighter (for example, there is higher brightness value), show that the corresponding part that can be indicated is darker (for example, having lower brightness Value).For example, to the different piece of the desaturation background content with different brightness values (for example, being labeled in desaturation band For the part of 1,2,3 and 4 circle encirclement) it executes reversion and obtains and show the corresponding part (example that can be indicated with different brightness values Such as, the part that 1,2,3 and 4 circle surrounds is marked as in reversion band).Fig. 5 F is shown for bright by corresponding background The exemplary reverse curve that can indicate brightness value is shown in angle value generation.With the background of the circles mark in Fig. 5 E and show pair that can be indicated Answer the value of part by the circles mark labeled as 1,2,3,4, as illustrated in figure 5f.Show the shade that can be indicated also in Fig. 5 F label for 1, it is reproduced in 2,3,4 circle.In some embodiments, after executing reversion, threshold process is determined to brightness value execution, with Reduce the dynamic range of brightness value.For example, showing that the brightness value for each pixel that can be indicated is restricted to show can indicate most light The 50% of degree has the softer appearance of lower internal visual contrast (for example, showing after reversion can be indicated and be determined to generate Showing after threshold value can indicate to be compared).In some embodiments, in order to further decrease in interior change and showing can indicate Contrast, be averaged using blur filter to the brightness change on multiple neighborhood pixels in content, and therefore to showing The brightness change on multiple neighborhood pixels in capable of indicating is averaged.Finally, it is obtained show can indicate have in lower section The corresponding wider stroke brightness change of brightness change in appearance.

When generate relative to different background it is outstanding show can indicate when, even if to brightness value carry out simple reverse can be big Enough contrasts are generated in most cases, using showing that all light angle value range that can be indicated would generally obtain more dazzling appearance, This may dispersion user attention.It would thus be advantageous to will show that the range of luminance values that can be indicated is constrained to the brightness value of content The subrange of range.In addition, depending on the expection luminance level of lower section content, it will show that the brightness range values that can be indicated are constrained to " dark " show can table indication range or " bright " show can table indication range, can be indicated or " bright " is shown to indicate to generate " dark " and show.? In some embodiments, show can indicate appearance type (for example, " dark " and " bright ") will not be initially displayed show can indicate after become Change, even if the appearance of lower section content is always on from very secretly becoming non-, or vice versa (as shown in Fig. 5 G to Fig. 5 P).In some realities Apply in scheme, show can indicate appearance type (for example, " dark " and " bright ") will not in response to content transient change (for example, short Content luminance level is temporarily inverted in time) and change, but eventually in response to the more longlasting variation of content (for example, longer When put on the reversion for keeping content luminance level) and change.In some embodiments, it can indicate at present according to showing for the first time The original intensity level of square content can indicate appearance type (for example, " bright " or " dark " or showing and can indicate specific outer to select to show Sight value range), and show that can indicate to maintain this to show can indicate appearance type, until scene handover event occurs (for example, applying Switch between program, switch between application program or system user interface or switch between two systems user interface Deng), and redefined based on the lower section content in new scene and to show and can indicate appearance type.As an example, Fig. 5 R is shown " bright ", which is shown, to be indicated and " dark " shows the exemplary inverse relation (for example, curve is respectively labeled as " LA " and " DA ") that can be indicated, Middle content range of luminance values (for example, along value of trunnion axis) is entire scope from black to white (for example, the gray value of gray level image For the brightness value of [0,1] or color image be [0,255] or brightness or other similar display properties is [0,100%]), show energy Indicate that range of luminance values (for example, along value of vertical axis) is constrained on upper limit value range (for example, " bright " shows the value model that can be indicated Enclose) or lower limit value range (for example, " dark " shows the value range that can be indicated) in.In some embodiments, two value ranges do not weigh Folded (for example, being separated by gap).As shown in Fig. 5 R, two curves (for example, curve LA and curve DA) show the brightness of content Increasing leads to show that the brightness that can be indicated reduces.

Fig. 5 F shows the exemplary luminance reversion for executing reversion shown in Fig. 5 E according to some embodiments Curve 5017.In this example, being constrained on showing between upper and lower bound can one of table indication range greater than background values Half, and do not include black (value=0) and pure white (for example, value=1).In some embodiments, reverse curve is continuous, It and does not include continuity point.

Fig. 5 Q shows that there is a situation where identical changes in background (for example, content 5018) according to some embodiments Under it is two kinds of show can indicate appearance type (for example, LA and DA) show can indicate 5002 difference in appearance.

Fig. 5 Q list shown in Fig. 5 G to Fig. 5 P every kind of state show can indicate 5002 appearance.These states are divided For five groups, each group of corresponding state corresponding to content 5018 shown in web browser user interface.For example, on to Under, five groups correspond to: (i) Fig. 5 G and Fig. 5 P, (ii) Fig. 5 H and Fig. 5 O, (iii) Fig. 5 I and Fig. 5 N, (iv) Fig. 5 J and Fig. 5 M with And (v) Fig. 5 K and Fig. 5 L.

As shown in Fig. 5 Q, for corresponding to each group of corresponding contents state, showing can be indicated (for example, by identical content bar The DA version and LA version that can indicate 5002 with following showing are compared) hint can indicate that appearance type is shown and can be indicated than bright Appearance type has whole darker appearance (for example, lower overall brightness).

Fig. 5 R, which is shown, shows the display properties (for example, brightness or gray value) that can indicate and dark according to some embodiments Appearance type and the bright value range for showing the lower section content that can indicate appearance type and inverse relation can be indicated by showing.

Difference in appearance shown in Fig. 5 Q is also be reflected in Fig. 5 R, wherein bright show that showing of can indicating can indicate range of luminance values It is substantially higher than and implies that can be indicated shows and can indicate range of luminance values, and two value ranges are not overlapped optionally.

Fig. 5 S to Fig. 5 AA shows the user interface according to some embodiments, the user interface include have in response to What the cosmetic variation of background and operation mode associated with background user interface changed shows and can indicate.

In Fig. 5 S, start Web-browser application, and show web browser user interface on the touchscreen 5024.In this example, web browser user interface is shown with horizontal orientation according to the orientation of equipment 100.With first state (for example, fully visible state/high contrast state 5002-A) shows that home shows near the bottom margin of touch screen and can indicate 5002.Showing can indicate that 5002 show and can indicate that appearance type is optionally based on the web page contents for being located at and showing and capable of indicating 5002 lower sections The initial integral brightness level of a part selects.

Fig. 5 S to Fig. 5 T shows selection media item (for example, film editing " Live Bright ") for playing back (example Such as, it in Fig. 5 S, is put on by contact 5026 in playback diagram associated with media item and carries out tap input).In response to selection Media item starts media player application program, and shows the user interface of media player application program on the touchscreen (for example, user interface 5028).In Fig. 5 T, media player application program is in the first pattern (for example, have shown control Screen mode toggle or interactive mode) operation.When just starting media playback, user interface 5028 includes being covered on media to return Multiple control areas on region (for example, the media content for substantially taking up entire screen) are put, these control areas include each Kind control, such as media washer are used for closing media player application program and returning to Web-browser application " completion " button, volume slide control, rewinding control, pause/play control and the F.F. control at family interface 5024.These controls Be initially shown on media playback region because user see for the first time media content seem or sound how after, will It is possible that want to adjust the default initial position selected by equipment or volume, or back to previous application program.Some In embodiment, when being switched to media player user interface 5028 from web browser user interface 5024, scene switching Event is recorded by equipment, and based on when for the first time start media playback when positioned at show can indicate 5002 lower section media content one Partial initial integral brightness level, which redefines, to be shown and can indicate that 5002 show and can indicate appearance type.Regardless of whether redefining Appearance type can be indicated by showing, initially be shown in user interface 5028 with fully visible state (for example, high contrast state) It can indicate 5002.

Fig. 5 U instruction is in the first predetermined time quantum (for example, 10 seconds) after media playback starting, control zone Domain kept on media content as it can be seen that and show can indicate 5002 in user interface 5028 with fully visible state (for example, complete Contrast state) it keeps.During this period of time, it is determined according to first group of rule and shows the appearance that can indicate 5002.In some implementations In scheme, first group of rule includes a set filter (such as, those filters shown in Fig. 5 E) and inverse relation is (such as, Those inverse relations shown in Fig. 5 R), wherein the first of filter group parameter and/or the shape of one or more reverse curve It is optionally show the first state that can be indicated preselected.In Fig. 5 S to Fig. 5 U, showing can indicate that 5002-A is no color letter The grey of breath, which is shown, to be indicated, even if lower section content is panchromatic.

In Fig. 5 V, the first predetermined time quantum (for example, 10 seconds) after media playback starting is had been switched off. In response to the first predetermined time quantum cut-off, control area stops on media content and shows.Control area is faded can wink Shi Fasheng is occurred by short animation.First predetermined time quantum cut-off and/or control area stop at media player Show instruction media player user interface now just in a second mode (for example, without the complete of shown control in user interface Shield display pattern or media consumption mode) operation.In addition, end in response to the first predetermined time quantum, equipment according to Second group of different rule of first group of rule, which determines, shows the appearance that can indicate 5002.In other words, showing can indicate with the second state (half visible state/low contrast state 5002-A') display.In some embodiments, second group of rule includes one group of filtering Device (such as, those filters shown in Fig. 5 E) and inverse relation (such as, those inverse relations shown in Fig. 5 R), wherein Second group of parameter of filter and/or the shape of one or more reverse curves be optionally show can indicate 5002 the second state (for example, half visible state/low contrast state 5002-A''s) is preselected.In some embodiments, in low contrast state Under, show some colors that can indicate content below 5002 holdings.For example, instead of by the complete desaturation of lower section content to obtain content Luminance graph, by each pixel only 70% color value (for example, rgb value) desaturation, and each pixel in the content of lower section 30% colouring information is to show that the FINAL APPEARANCE that can be indicated is kept.In some embodiments, it adjusts and shows the transparency that can be indicated Level, so that showing that it is not fully opaque for capable of indicating, and some colouring informations of lower section content are sent to and show and can indicate Pixel.In some embodiments, execute brightness reversion after, show can indicate remaining color saturation increase (for example, Increase by 30%) so that showing can indicate to seem slightly more Animando, to preferably mix with background.5002 can be indicated by showing The visibility or contrast of second state reduce allow for initial time section of the user after starting media playback for the first time it Want to reduce with a possibility that any widget interaction afterwards.In some embodiments, from first state to the transformation of the second state Optionally be in multiple intermediate state between the first state and a second state gradually and continuous transformation, and it is unexpected and discrete Transformation is opposite.Gradually change the attention for being less likely dispersion user viewing media content.

As shown in Fig. 5 V to Fig. 5 W, it can indicate that 5002 are in the second state (for example, half visible state/low contrast when showing State 5002-A') when, show the appearance that can indicate 5002 based on second group of rule according to positioned at the change for showing the content below capable of indicating Change and changes.

In Fig. 5 X, it can indicate that 5002 reach the second predetermined time quantum (for example, 5 seconds) in the second state showing Later, showing can indicate that 5002 are changed into invisible mode (for example, the referred to as third state) from the second state, or in other words, Showing can indicate to fade out and stop at completely on media content to show.In some embodiments, from the second state to third shape The transformation of state be optionally in multiple intermediate state between the second state and the third state gradually and continuous transformation, and it is prominent So and discrete transition is opposite.Gradually change the attention for being less likely dispersion user viewing media content.

Fig. 5 Y to Fig. 5 AA show show can indicate 5002 no longer on media content 5028 show after, media playback It is continued until and detects input (for example, the movement of equipment, the tap carried out on the touchscreen by contact are inputted or gently swept defeated Enter, the contact near the bottom edge region of display etc.).In response to detecting input, showing can be indicated 5002 in media content It is shown again on 5028.

As shown in Fig. 5 Y, in response to the movement of equipment 100, (or other kinds of input, such as contact is at the bottom of display Tap near portion's fringe region, gently sweep or touch-down), show can indicate 5002 with the second state (for example, half is visible/low right Than degree state 5002-A') display (for example, together with other control areas) again on media content 5028.In some implementations It in scheme, is not shown again in response to the input control region, and equipment continues with the full frame of media player application program Display pattern (without shown control) operation.In some embodiments, if be not detected in threshold amount of time another Input (for example, tap inputs or gently sweep input), then stop showing and capable of indicating again.If detected in threshold amount of time Required input is then shown again with first state and shows and can indicate, and also optionally shows media control area again.User circle Face back to media player application program first operator scheme (for example, with shown control full screen playback mode, Or interactive mode).With shown with first state show can indicate 5002 and immediately return first operator scheme on the contrary, initial response in First input, which provides showing in the second state, can indicate that 5002 have provided a user and show the position that can be indicated and use about home Some instructions of the state at family interface, but have also contemplated that input may be unintentionally and user is actually not intended to disperse simultaneously Watch the attention of media content.If user's it is intended that with control and/or show and can indicate 5002, needs from user Confirmation input (for example, the sustained touch carried out by the same contact that reaches threshold amount of time, by with threshold value by pressure The pressing input or inputted by second of tap that another contact carries out that the same contact of degree carries out).

Fig. 5 Z and Fig. 5 AA are shown in some embodiments, show energy property 5002 (for example, such as institute in Fig. 5 X when not showing Show) when or can indicate 5002 when showing with the second state (for example, translucent/low contrast state 5002-A') (for example, As shown in Fig. 5 Y) when, the input carried out by contact (for example, contact 5030) is detected on the touchscreen.In response to by connecing The input that touching 5030 carries out, with the second state (for example, half visible/low contrast state 5002-A') display (if not yet aobvious Show) show and can indicate 5002.In addition, media control area is also shown in media player user interface again.In other words, matchmaker Body player application returns to first operator scheme.In some embodiments, near the bottom edge region of display Sustained touch input show equipment again with the second state first to indicate (for example, when detecting contact), then Being shown again with first state can indicate (for example, being more than to be maintained less than amount of threshold shift from touch-down in contact When threshold amount of time).In some embodiments, after being shown again with first state and can indicate, when detecting contact Movement (what is do not contacted is lifted away from) when, equipment navigation by recognition gesture.In some embodiments, instead of requiring contact to be kept The substantially stationary threshold amount of time that reaches is to be shown again and can be indicated with first state, and the intensity of equipment requirement contact is with small In contact amount of threshold shift be more than predefined light press intensity threshold.In some embodiments, with first state weight Newly show after capable of indicating, when detecting movement (what is do not contacted is lifted away from) of contact, equipment navigation by recognition gesture.

In Fig. 5 AA, the first mode of operation (for example, interaction mode) is returned in response to media player application program, Showing can indicate that 5002 also change back to first state from the second state (for example, half visible state/low contrast state 5002-A') (for example, fully visible state/high contrast state 5002-A).In some embodiments, from the second state to first state Transformation be optionally discrete transition, it is opposite in multiple intermediate state between the first state and a second state.Turn suddenly Change is possible to that the operation mode of user's user interface is reminded to change, and shortens the waiting time of user's access control simultaneously Subsequent input is provided.In some embodiments, when detecting confirmation input (for example, in response to first time tap and with the Two-state shows second of the tap shown after capable of indicating, or by triggering the same contact shown with the second status display and can indicated The sustained touch of progress) when, directly the state shown in Fig. 5 Y is changed into state shown in Fig. 5 AA, skips institute in Fig. 5 Z The state shown.

In Fig. 5 AB, show that the first state 5002-A that can be indicated is opaque, and in media player user interface To use when the first mode of operation (for example, interaction mode) operation and when showing media control on media content.Second State 5002-A' is translucent, and in media player user interface with the second mode of operation (for example, protected shape State or media consumption state) operation and the use when not showing media control on media content.The third state is no longer to show Showing can indicate and user interface continues the shape that operates with the second mode of operation (for example, protected state or media consumption state) State.It is not received by when in time quantum predetermined after starting media player (for example, with full frame or transverse mode) When input, showing can indicate that 5002 pass through these states.

In Fig. 5 AC, showing can indicate to start with invisible mode or not show on media content (for example, due to not Stop showing and capable of indicating after 5002 there are user's input).In response to the first input of input or first part, with second Status display, which is shown, to be indicated, at the same media player user interface with the second mode of operation (for example, protected state or media disappear Take state) it keeps.Then, it in response to the second input of input or second part, is shown with first state 5002-A and shows and can indicate, And user interface returns to the first mode of operation (for example, interaction mode).In first state 5002-A, showing can indicate to be not Transparent.In the second state 5002-A', showing can indicate to be translucent.

In some embodiments, showing showing of can indicating can indicate that appearance type is fixed, and become in lower section content It will not change when change.This provide it is consistent show can indicate appearance, the interference to user can be reduced.However, in some scene kinds, When showing that the content change that can be indicated is very big, after content is tuned as whole light tone from whole dead color, fixed Showing can indicate that type possibly can not provide enough contrasts or vice versa in the background of lower section.In addition, sometimes, content is bright The switching of degree level is short-term switching (for example, rolling through the black text row in white background), and in this case, Switch in response to this short-term change show can indicate type may be it is inefficient, obscure user and the attention of dispersion user Power.On the other hand, if the switching of content luminance level be more permanent or long-term switching (for example, from page (for example, Show the warm-toned page of evening sky) it is turned to another page (for example, display starlit night scene)), then it keeps showing and capable of indicating Fixed may cause of appearance type shows that the visibility that can be indicated is extending deficiency in the period.

To solve the above-mentioned problems, maintain the demand of visibility without causing undue disturbance to user in still balance While, in some embodiments, equipment, which allows to show, can indicate switching it shows and can indicate appearance type, and correspondingly, when When meeting predefined range switching standards, showing for value can be indicated that appearance value range is shifted from a value range as another value Range.In some embodiments, when be located at show can indicate below (and being optionally disposed in around it) content entirety it is bright The measurement (for example, accumulated value and polymerizing value of brightness value) of degree state is since the appearance of content changes over time and is more than predefined When threshold value, that is, meet range switching standards.In some embodiments, the measurement of the overall brightness state of content considers one section The luminance level (for example, using the operation mean value of weighting) of the relevant portion of content in time, and be also partial to keep showing Can indicate currently show can indicate appearance type it is constant (for example, be biased to optionally by assign content older luminance level compared with High weight and assign the smaller weight of newer luminance level of content to realize).Due to showing energy with cumulative effect and to current The deviation for indicating appearance type, the temporary variation relative to content keep showing the short-term goal that can indicate appearance stablity, Yi Ji Persistently provided in the content of variation it is enough show can indicate that high-lighting is satisfied.

Fig. 5 A shows simple example, wherein showing can indicate that 5002 can indicate to start (for example, initially locating as hint It is shown in the user interface of state as shown in figure 5g).Then, positioned at show can indicate 5002 lower section content for example pass through Rolling becomes relatively bright state (for example, the state for becoming user interface as shown in fig. 5k).In this example, show energy Indicate that 5002 show and can indicate that appearance type does not change during rolling content, such as the reason is that rolling is relatively fast, and Showing of being partial to keep currently selecting can indicate that appearance type not yet passes the cosmetic variation of content in the short time and is overcome.? Stop after rolling content, showing can indicate still to be covered in content shown in bright state.As time goes by, content is whole Body luminance state gradually changes, and the luminance level of current background is gradually taken over and the brightness water of the background of leading previously illustrated It is flat (for example, when be initially displayed show can indicate when or during rolling content).Finally, at time t1, the overall brightness of background The measurement of state is more than predefined thresholds, and meets range handover trigger standard.In some embodiments, in response to detection To meeting range handover trigger standard, equipment switches immediately to be shown and can indicate appearance type, and can indicate outer according to showing for newly selecting It sees type to show and shows and can indicate, such as shown on the user interface on the right side of Fig. 5 AD.Show in the appearance that can be indicated and Fig. 5 L Shown in appearance it is identical, but in this example, user need not close Web-browser application and restart it to make Showing, which can indicate to be shown as bright in content 5018, shows and can indicate.

In some embodiments, when meeting range handover trigger standard, equipment, which starts to show from first, can indicate appearance Type (for example, imply can indicate appearance type) be gradually converted into second show can indicate appearance type (for example, it is bright show can indicate outside See type).For example, showing can indicate that appearance value range passes through during the predetermined transformation period (for example, T=t2-t1,5 seconds) Cross one or more intermediate ranges between the first appearance type and the value range of the second appearance type.During changing the period Any moment shows that the appearance that can be indicated is based on being currently used as showing the specific intermediate range that can indicate appearance value range come really Fixed.As shown in the intermediate user interface in Fig. 5 AD, in the identical situation of background content, showing can indicate there is intermediate luminance Level, the intermediate brightness levels between imply can indicate and it is bright show can indicate between.

In some embodiments, during changing the period, the measurement of the overall brightness state of lower section content at any time after It is continuous to update, wherein at the nearlyr time at the luminance level adapter tube earlier time of content content luminance level.If met again Range handover trigger standard is (for example, having can indicate outside for the same threshold that more early switches or depending on showing of currently selecting See type different threshold values), then be not fully complete to second and show the switching that can indicate appearance type, and show can indicate return Appearance type can be indicated by showing to first.In this particular example, content does not change, and will no longer satisfy during changing the period Range handover trigger standard, as a result, complete at time t2 (for example, the period between t1 and t2 is the predefined transformation period) It is accomplished to second and shows the switching that can indicate appearance type.Be accomplished to second show the switching that can indicate appearance type after, lower section The measurement of the overall brightness state of content continues to update at any time, and when due to lower section content accumulated change (for example, due to Handover situations, rolling etc.) when meeting range handover trigger standard again, switching can return to first again, which to be shown, can indicate appearance Type.

Fig. 5 AE, which is shown, shows that the display properties (for example, brightness) that can be indicated shows energy table with bright according to some embodiments Show that appearance type (A), hint can indicate that appearance type (C) and transformation show the value model that can indicate the lower section content of appearance type (B) It encloses and inverse relation.In some embodiments, reverse curve shown in Fig. 5 AE is optionally for showing in generation Fig. 5 AD It can indicate 5002 appearance.

In the example shown in 5AE, different appearances show can indicate type (A), (B), (C) the shape of reverse curve be It is identical.Allow the background value of each point in calculating figure using the reverse curve with same shape and show to indicate bright Corresponding relationship value between angle value simultaneously stores it in tables of data so that when show can indicate transformation between type continuously across When many intermediate ranges, the brightness of respective pixel in background can be based at least partially on by the lookup in table come simply really Surely show the brightness of each pixel on capable of indicating.For example, during changing the period, each of multiple evenly spaced time points Time point shows that the corresponding intermediate range between energy table indication range and hint energy table indication range is associated to bright, and even if The content consecutive variations during changing the period, showing can indicate that appearance still can pair of the place based on the time point at every point of time The reverse curve of intermediate range is answered quickly to determine.

As shown in Fig. 5 AE, reverse curve 5032 includes two discontinuity poinies.Left side discontinuity point 5034 is introduced to solve Certainly interference point (for example, at 25.4% background luminance), the noise spot are the isopleth of brightness 5036 (for example, brightness=back can be indicated by showing Scape brightness) interception and the not no reverse curve of discontinuity point.Left side discontinuity point, which allows to show, can indicate to have and background luminance Not exactly the same brightness value, to avoid occurring " invisible " in some special cases showing a possibility that capable of indicating.It is similar Ground introduces right side discontinuity point 5038 to solve interference point (for example, at 74.51% brightness), which is the isopleth of brightness The reverse curve of 5036 interception and not discontinuity point.Right side discontinuity point, which allows to show, can indicate with endless with background luminance Exactly the same brightness value, to avoid occurring " invisible " in some special cases showing a possibility that capable of indicating.

In addition, can indicate that brightness carries out special correction to showing, therefore will not be always near discontinuity point 5036 and 5038 Observe stringent reversion (can indicate brightness for example, increasing background luminance and showing corresponding to reduction, vice versa).For example, on a left side In the correction zone of side discontinuity point 5036, showing on the side with higher background luminance can indicate brightness relatively flat, and have There is showing on the side of lower background luminance that can indicate that brightness includes the smaller reversion of normal inverse relation.In right side discontinuity point In 5038 correction zone, with lower background luminance side on showing can indicate brightness include normal inverse relation relatively Big reversion.The design of the accurate shape of these correction zones considers human vision to the responsiveness of the brightness value in these areas, with And show the needs that can indicate that enough contrasts are generated between background near interference point.For example, the width of interference region and right The adjusting of normal inverse relation depends on the comparison measurement that the showing in background at these interference points can indicate required.

Figure each of (A), (B) and (C) shown in Fig. 5 AE further includes background luminance item and shows and can indicate to respond item (being shown in below graph region).The background luminance item of each figure and showing can indicate that responding item shows according to the reversion in same figure The correspondence background luminance and show and can indicate brightness that curve 5032 generates.In addition, implying that the background color for the figure (A) that can be indicated is white Color, allow to show imply can indicate all shades (e.g., including showing for black completely can indicate, but not include complete White is shown and can be indicated).The bright background color for showing the figure (C) that can be indicated is black, allows to show the bright institute that shows and can indicate Have shade (e.g., including completely white show and can indicate, but do not include that can indicate showing for complete black).Transformation is shown and can be indicated The background color for scheming (B) is grey (50% brightness).Background luminance can indicate that brightness is slightly more shallow ash for 50% show Color (for example, brightness value is lower than 50%), such as by the way that showing along trunnion axis half can be indicated response and at the bottom of figure (B) Shown in 50% grey bar of display is compared.

Fig. 5 AF is shown can indicate appearance type (for example, scheming according to showing by multiple transformations for some embodiments (B-1), (B-2), indicate in (B-3)) can indicate that appearance type (for example, indicating in figure (A)) is shown and can be indicated to bright from implying The gradually transfer of appearance type (for example, being indicated in figure (C)).

In some embodiments, when meeting range handover trigger standard at time t1, equipment starts to show from first Can indicate that appearance type (for example, imply can indicate appearance type) is gradually converted into second and shows can indicate appearance type (for example, bright Appearance type can be indicated by showing).Then, during predetermined transformation period (for example, T=t2-t1), appearance value can be indicated by showing Range is by multiple intermediate ranges (for example, what the sum of intermediate range can be indicated depending on the refresh rate and hint of display The gap of the value between the upper limit of brightness and 1 can be indicated by showing) turn between the first appearance type and the value range of the second appearance type Move (for example, depend on switching direction and upward or downward).At any moment during changing period T, showing can indicate outer Sight is determined based on specific intermediate range, which, which is currently used as showing, can indicate appearance value range.

In some embodiments, during changing the period, the measurement of the overall brightness state of lower section content at any time after It is continuous to update, wherein at the nearlyr time at the luminance level adapter tube earlier time of content content luminance level.If met again Range handover trigger standard is (for example, having can indicate outside for the same threshold that more early switches or depending on showing of currently selecting See the different threshold values of type), then it is not fully complete to second and shows the switching that can indicate appearance type, and show and can indicate appearance The transfer of value range, which inverts on direction and shows to indicate finally to can return to first and show, can indicate appearance type.If changing Range handover trigger standard is not met during period for the second time, then appearance can be indicated by being accomplished to second at the end of changing the period and showing The switching of type.Be accomplished to second show the switching that can indicate appearance type after, the degree of the overall brightness state of lower section content Amount continue to update at any time, and when due to lower section content accumulated change (for example, due to handover situations, rollings etc.) another When meeting range handover trigger standard, switching can return to first again, which to be shown, can indicate appearance type.

In the example shown in 5AF, different appearances, which are shown, can indicate type (A), (B-1), (B-2), (B-3) and (C) The shape of reverse curve is identical.Allow each point in calculating figure (or each using the reverse curve with same shape The reverse curve of intermediate range) background value and show and can indicate the corresponding relationship value between brightness value and store it in It, can at least partly ground so that when showing can indicate transformation between type continuously across many intermediate ranges in tables of data The brightness of respective pixel shows each pixel on capable of indicating by the quick lookup in tables of data simply to determine in background Brightness.For example, each time point in multiple evenly spaced time points shows energy expression value model with bright during changing the period It encloses and implies that the corresponding intermediate range between energy table indication range is associated, and even if content is continuous during changing the period Variation and lower section content are showing below the different piece that can be indicated that showing can indicate that appearance still may be used with very big brightness change To locate quickly to determine based on data pre-stored in tables of data at every point of time.

Fig. 6 A to Fig. 6 C is to show to show energy table according to changing according to the cosmetic variation of lower section content for some embodiments The flow chart of the method 6000 for the appearance shown.Method 6000 is in the electronic equipment with display and touch sensitive surface (for example, equipment 300, Fig. 3；Or portable multifunction device 100, Figure 1A) on execute.In some embodiments, electronic equipment include for Detect the one or more sensors of the intensity of the contact of touch sensitive surface.In some embodiments, the touch sensitive surface and display Device is integrated into touch-sensitive display.In some embodiments, display is touch-screen display, and touch sensitive surface is in display It is upper or integrated with display.In some embodiments, display is to separate with touch sensitive surface.Some behaviour in method 6000 It is optionally combined and/or the sequence of some operations is optionally changed.

Method 6000, which is related to showing in terms of content as follows, to be shown and can indicate (to indicate the gesture for showing home screen Showing for acceptable initiation region can indicate): display properties (for example, gray value or brightness value) wherein based on lower section content becomes Change dynamically changes the same display attribute shown and can indicated.In particular, show the value of the display properties that can be indicated with lower section in The value of the same display attribute of appearance changes variation on opposite direction (for example, showing that the gray value that can be indicated is the ash of lower section content The reversion of angle value).In addition, showing that the value for the display properties that can be indicated is confined to the value smaller than the value of the display properties of lower section content Range.Therefore, equipment can be shown and can indicate less to take sb's mind off sth or less there is intrusive mode to provide, simultaneously It keeps enough when the appearance of content continues variation (for example, due to rolling, scene switches and dynamic content playback) and shows energy table Show visibility.There is provided in a manner described herein, there is the showing for appearance of the appearance dynamic change based on lower section content can indicate, The operability of equipment is enhanced (for example, passing through the guidance for providing a user the required input about expected result without to use Undue disturbance is caused at family, this can reduce user's mistake when operation equipment), and make the more effective (example of user's equipment interface User's mistake when such as, by helping user to realize expected results using required input and reducing operation equipment/interact with equipment Accidentally), so as to improve equipment battery life (for example, by help user more rapidly, more efficiently use equipment).With herein The mode, which provides, to be shown and can indicate to allow to show on screen and can indicate effectively to replace in many different user interface scenes The hardware button of identical function (for example, display home screen) is provided, this manufacturing cost for helping to reduce equipment and maintenance at This.Furthermore, it desired to which the solution of protection constrains the value range shown and can indicated, shows and can indicate between background content to eliminate White background black and black matrix white contrast, so that mitigating can indicate and lead due to showing for a long time in white background or black background The risk of the display image retention of cause.The known reason for leading to screen image retention is to show non-moving images (for example, system-level for a long time Showing can indicate, such as home gesture indicator), in addition non-homogeneous use pixel (for example, this is between foreground and background content It is most serious in the case that contrast is high).(show and can indicate for example, implementing system-level home) under certain usage scenarios, institute The solution (for example, reducing Very High Contrast, while keeping showing the vision high-lighting that can be indicated) of proposition efficiently solves Image retention problem.Image retention problem and its reason in the display of mobile phone are documented in trade literature for many years, and And it is still present in many commercial product problems.Up to the present, it has attempted to show and can indicate on the screen everywhere by allowing Movement only disappears after a period of time is inactive to solve the problems, such as this.However, this solution can make equipment can Operability becomes worse.(display properties of content is reversed in display attribute value claimed solution below wherein Subrange in determination show that the value for the same display attribute that can be indicated provides the foundation) allow to show energy in same position use Indicate the risk that image retention is generated without having.

Method 6000 is in the equipment with display and touch sensitive surface (for example, serving as both display and touch sensitive surface Touch-screen display) on execute.Equipment shows (6002) content (for example, home screen, desktop small routine screen over the display Curtain, desktop, the user interface of application program, media player user interface etc.) and show and can indicate (for example, on indication display The home of home gesture conversion zone show and can indicate), in which: showing in a part of content can indicate；Showing can indicate Display properties (for example, gray value or brightness value of image (for example, color image or monochrome image)) value, except gray value or Intrinsic display parameters (for example, the tone of full-colour image, saturation degree etc.) except brightness value, or it is intrinsic based on one or more The derivation display parameters that display parameters (for example, gray value or brightness value or its variant or equivalent of full-colour image) calculate) It is to be determined based on the value for the same display attribute for showing a part that can indicate the content shown on it；And allow content The value of display properties in the first value range, (for example, range [0,1], such as " range " is mathematically defined as range maximum Be worth different the value difference between stated range minimum) in variation, and show that the value for the display properties that can be indicated is confined to less than the The second value range of one value range is (for example, in range [0,0.4], [0.6,1], [0.1,0.7], [0,0.7] or [0.3,1] etc. One of, " subrange " of " the first range " is defined as maximum value and is greater than the less than the maximum value and minimum value of the first range The range or maximum value of the minimum value of one range are less than the maximum value and minimum value of the first range and the minimum value of the first range Identical range or maximum value is identical as the maximum value of the first range and minimum value be greater than the first range minimum value model Enclose) in variation；When display content and show that the cosmetic variation for the content that can be indicated is shown in equipment detection (6004) when can indicate. In response to detecting that display shows that the cosmetic variation for the content that can be indicated, equipment change (6006) and show the appearance that can be indicated, comprising: root Reduced according to the value of display properties for determining content, according to the amplitude of variation of the value of the display properties of content and second value range come Increase show the display properties that can be indicated value (for example, when be located at show can indicate below content become darker when, show can indicate change It obtains brighter)；And increased according to the value for the display properties for determining content, according to the amplitude of variation of the value of the display properties of content Reduce the value for showing the display properties that can be indicated with second value range (for example, showing that the content below capable of indicating becomes more when being located at When bright, showing can indicate to become darker).This shows in such as Fig. 5 F, Fig. 5 G to Fig. 5 P, Fig. 5 Q and Fig. 5 R, wherein showing can indicate Display properties (for example, brightness) according to the variation of the same display attribute (for example, brightness) of lower section content (for example, in rolling When appearance) and change.In addition, showing for display properties (for example, brightness) can indicate that appearance value range is confined to the phase of lower section content With the value range (for example, from black (for example, 0 or 0%) to the total head range of white (for example, 1 or 100%)) of display properties Subrange.

In some embodiments, the cosmetic variation of content be (6008) as caused by content navigation (for example, due to interior Rolling, paging of appearance etc., which cause to be located at, shows that a part of content below capable of indicating changes).For example, this is in Fig. 5 G to figure It is shown in 5P.Change, which is shown, while in lower section, the display properties of content is changed due to content navigation can indicate identical aobvious The value for showing attribute enhances the operability of equipment (for example, showing that can indicate can by keeping enough in entire content is navigated Opinion property, and help user provide realize expected result needed for input), and keep user facility operation more effective (for example, passing through User's mistake when reducing to interference caused by user security risk and reducing using equipment or interacted with equipment), in addition improve function Rate efficiency and equipment battery life (for example, by reduce user's mistake and help user more rapidly, more efficiently use and set It is standby).

In some embodiments, the cosmetic variation of content be (6010) caused by content changes over time (for example, Content is video or animation being played on, and the image of shown video or animation changes over time).For example, this It is shown in Fig. 5 T to Fig. 5 U.In lower section, the display properties of content changes while change and shows since content changes over time The value for the same display attribute that can be indicated, enhances the operability of equipment (for example, by changing over time in entire content Kept in journey it is enough show can indicate visibility, and help user provide realize expected result needed for input), and make user Equipment operation is more effective (for example, use when by reducing to interference caused by user security risk and reduce using equipment or interact with equipment Family mistake), in addition improve the battery life of power efficiency and equipment (for example, by reducing user's mistake and helping to use Family more rapidly, more efficiently use equipment).

In some embodiments, showing can indicate there is (6012) first variants and the second variant, which has For first group of end value of second value range, which has second group of end value for second value range, second group of end Value is different from first group of end value, and (for example, for " bright to show and indicate " that initially shows in bright background, second value range has the One starting point and First terminal point, and " hint can indicate " for initially showing on a dark background, second value range has difference Second starting point and second terminal different from the first starting point and the second terminal).For example, this shows in Fig. 5 A and Fig. 5 R.One In a little embodiments, the value range of the first variant is not Chong Die with the value range of the second variant (for example, the value model of " bright to show and indicate " The all values enclosed are greater than all values in the value range of " implying can indicate ").There is provided, there is showing for different value range can indicate Two variants allow equipment to further increase the visibility that shows and can indicate, while holding shows the appearance that can be indicated in different type Content on not high-lighting, to enhance the operability of equipment (for example, by keeping enough for different types of content Visibility can be indicated by showing, and help user provide realize expected result needed for input), and keep user facility operation more effective (for example, user's mistake when by reducing to interference caused by user security risk and reduce using equipment or interacted with equipment).

In some embodiments, according to determining that content corresponds to the first application program (6014) and show and can indicate to show First variant, and second application program different from the first application program is corresponded to according to determining content and shows and can indicate to show The second variant (for example, used in the application program currently shown " bright " is shown with " dark " can indicate to be answered by what is currently shown It is selected with the application developer of program, and equipment is shown according to what is specified in the program code of the application program currently shown Can indicate the respective sets end value of selection parameter or second value range show show the first variant that can be indicated or the second variant (for example, When the value for the display properties that can be indicated is shown in change, the first group of end value or second group of end value of second value range are used)).Allow Different application programs can indicate that variant is facilitated application developer and made by oneself based on application scenario using different showing Justice shows the appearance that can be indicated, thus further increase show it is compatible between the appearance and the appearance of application content that can be indicated Property, thus enhance equipment operability (for example, by keep it is enough show visibility can be indicated without causing not to user Interference appropriate, and help user provide realize expected result needed for input), and make user facility operation more effective (for example, user's mistake when by reducing to interference caused by user security risk and reduce using equipment or interacted with equipment).

In some embodiments, show that the outward appearance change (6016) of the first part for the content that can be indicated is shown with display The different amount of the appearance of the second part for the content that can be indicated；And changes and show that the appearance that can be indicated includes by first with content The corresponding outward appearance change for showing the first part that can be indicated in part is corresponding with the second part of content to be shown and can indicate The different amount of the appearance of second part is (for example, showing can indicate according to positioned at the corresponding content shown below the first part that can be indicated A part appearance variation and change).For example, this shows in Fig. 5 Q.For example, if lower section content change is (for example, show Energy expression is fuzzy/desaturation/inverted version of a part of content), then show the cosmetic variation that can be indicated, and show and can indicate The appearance of different piece reflect the appearance for being located at and showing content below the different piece that can be indicated.Allow based in lower section The difference variable quantity is applied to show the different portions that can be indicated by the different variable quantities occurred in the display properties of the different piece of appearance The display properties divided, enhances the operability of equipment (for example, showing and can indicate by keeping enough in entire content changes Visibility, and help user provide realize expected result needed for input), and keep user facility operation more effective (for example, logical Cross user's mistake when reducing to interference caused by user security risk and reducing using equipment or interact with equipment), in addition improve Power efficiency and equipment battery life (for example, by reduce user's mistake and help user more rapidly, more efficiently use and set It is standby).

In some embodiments, the first value range is (6018) successive value range, and second value range includes not connecting Continuous point, the discontinuity point are corresponding at least the first value of display properties in the first value range.For example, in some embodiments In, for being located at the display properties for showing the content that can indicate lower section close to 0.5 small value range, show the display properties that can be indicated Value is discontinuous, and jumps to the second value higher than 0.5 from the first value lower than 0.5.In some embodiments, equipment makes The value for showing the same display attribute that can be indicated is calculated based on the value of the display properties of lower section content with discontinuous function, with true It protects and shows that the appearance that can be indicated will not get too close to the appearance of lower section content (for example, can indicate be shown in ensure that grey is shown Gray value and the grey are shown on the grey content that can indicate very close).Fig. 5 AE shows the display properties that can be indicated The reverse curve including two discontinuity poinies (for example, 5034 and 5038) of value.Using showing not connecting for the display properties that can be indicated The successive value range that continuous value range keeps the value of lower section content to show simultaneously, which helps avoid showing, can indicate that the value used excessively connects The value of nearly lower section content can indicate visibility deficiency so as to cause showing.Use the discrete value model for showing the display properties that can be indicated Enclose enhance equipment operability (for example, by kept in entire content changes it is enough show can indicate visibility, and help Help user provide realize expected result needed for input), and make user facility operation it is more effective (for example, by reduce to User's mistake when being interfered caused by family and reducing using equipment or interacted with equipment), thus in addition improve power efficiency and Equipment battery life (for example, by reduce user's mistake and help user more rapidly, more efficiently use equipment).

In some embodiments, showing can indicate to have (6020) first variants and the second variant (for example, " bright to show energy table Show " and " hint can indicate "), the first value range corresponding with the first variant that can be indicated is shown and with show the second change that can be indicated The corresponding second value range of body is not overlapped (for example, the value range quilt of the value range of " bright to show and indicate " and " implying can indicate " " cutoff value range " separates), and equipment is dynamically selected one of the first variant and the second variant, predetermined Time (for example, when application program launching, or when in video there are when scene changes, or when the user interface in application program When switching etc.) initial value of the display properties based on content shows in terms of content.For example, if content initially has darker ash Angle value (for example, less than 0.5), then the initial value (for example, being greater than 0.6) in bright intensity value ranges can be indicated by showing；And such as Fruit content initially has brighter gray value (for example, being greater than 0.5), then the initial value within the scope of dark gray can be indicated by showing (for example, less than 0.4).Show that the accurate greyscale value that can be indicated is obtained optionally by following procedure: by with show can indicate just Beginning appearance is associated bright or the correspondence inverted functions of dark value range invert the gray value of content.In some embodiments, If showing that can indicate is that be initially shown on dark content (for example, gray value be 0.2) bright is shown and can be indicated (for example, gray value is 0.9), then when showing can indicate that following content becomes more and more brighter (for example, gray value increases towards 1), showing can indicate to become Darkness deepens (for example, gray value towards 0 reduce), but show the gray value that can indicate by minimum threshold gray value (for example, 0.6) constraint, the minimum threshold gray value are still brighter than the center gray value (for example, 0.5) on gray scale [0,1].It can table when showing Show following content become that darkness deepens (for example, gray value reduces towards 0) when, showing can indicate to become more and more brighter (for example, grey Angle value increases towards 1), until when content becomes complete black, it becomes white completely (for example, reaching on gray scale [0,1] End value 1).In another example, if show can indicate be initially shown in it is dark on bright content (for example, gray value be 0.9) Show and can indicate (for example, gray value is 0.2), then can indicate that following content becomes that darkness deepens (for example, gray value direction when showing 0 reduces) when, showing can indicate to become more and more brighter (for example, gray value direction 1 increase), but show the gray value that can indicate by The constraint of max-thresholds gray value (for example, 0.4), the max-thresholds gray value is still than the center gray value on gray scale [0,1] (for example, 0.5) is dark.When showing can indicate that following content becomes more and more brighter (for example, gray value increases towards 1), showing can table Showing becomes that darkness deepens (for example, gray value reduces towards 0), until when content becomes complete white, it becomes complete black (for example, reaching the end value 0 on gray scale [0,1]).Fig. 5 G shows the initial overall brightness based on relatively darker lower section content State come select imply can indicate, and Fig. 5 L show the initial overall brightness state based on relatively bright lower section content come It selects bright to show and can indicate.Allow application program from show can indicate two different variants (for example, for darker content with it is brighter interior Hold) in be dynamically selected, further improve and the appearance that can be indicated shown based on application scenario, to further mention It is high show can compatibility between the appearance that indicated and the appearance of lower section content, thus enhance equipment operability (for example, By keep it is enough show can indicate visibility without causing undue disturbance to user, and help user provide realize expectation As a result the input needed for), and make user facility operation more effective (for example, by reducing to interference caused by user security risk and subtracting User's mistake using equipment or when being interacted with equipment less).

In some embodiments, show can indicate include (6022) when equipment is in first orientation with first size (for example, near bottom margin of equipment), which shows, to be indicated, and this method comprises: shows energy table when showing with first size When showing, rotation of the detection device from first orientation to the second orientation different from first orientation is (for example, the rotation of equipment makes to show The content shown from the first user interface be orientated (for example, machine-direction oriented) become second user interface be orientated (for example, laterally take To))；And in response to detecting rotation of the equipment from first orientation to second orientation, with second ruler different from first size It is very little show can indicate (and optionally, at different locations (for example, as second orientation based on equipment limit equipment Near new bottom margin) show and can indicate)).In some embodiments, the longer version of display when equipment is in horizontal orientation This shows and can indicate, and shows that showing for shortened version can indicate when equipment is in machine-direction oriented.It is shown in slewing It is various sizes of show can indicate to improve that show can be between the orientation (and being therefore the orientation of content) of the appearance that indicated and equipment Vision compatibility, thus enhance equipment operability (for example, by keep it is enough show can indicate visibility without to User causes undue disturbance, and help user provide realize expected result needed for input), and user equipment is grasped Make more effective (for example, user when by reducing to interference caused by user security risk and reduce using equipment or interact with equipment is wrong Accidentally).

In some embodiments, display properties be (6024) gray value (for example, gray value have total head range [0,1], Indicate intensity value ranges from black (for example, gray value=0) to white (for example, gray value=1).It provides based on lower section content What gray value changed its gray value shows the operability that can indicate to enhance equipment (for example, by keeping enough showing and capable of indicating Visibility without causing undue disturbance to user, and help user provide realize expected result needed for input), and make It is more effective (for example, by reducing to interference caused by user security risk and reducing using equipment or interact with equipment to obtain user facility operation When user's mistake).

In some embodiments, the current value of the display properties of content is obtained by obscuring a part of content (6026) (for example, being shown by the way that the ambiguity function (for example, Gaussian blurring function) with predefined blur radius to be applied to be located at It can indicate the content area of lower section, and will be applied to be located at the ambiguity function of at least one blur radius and show and can indicate just Around the content area of lower section).In some embodiments, it after content is fuzzy, using other filters, such as goes to satisfy With and/or change opacity.The identical display category that there is the display properties of the lower section content based on blurry versions to derive is provided Property show and can indicate, enhance equipment operability (for example, by keep it is enough show visibility can be indicated without to user Cause undue disturbance, and help user provide realize expected result needed for input), and make user facility operation more Effectively (for example, user's mistake when by reducing to interference caused by user security risk and reduce using equipment or interacted with equipment).

In some embodiments, the current value of the display properties of content is (6028) by going to satisfy a part of content With come obtain (for example, by will be located at show can indicate below content area each pixel color value (for example, rgb value, HSL value or HSV value) or the region around at least one blur radius conversion monochromatizing scale (for example, gray scale) on correspondence Scalar value (for example, gray value)).In some embodiments, after by content desaturation, using other filters, such as Fuzzy and/or change opacity.The identical aobvious of the display properties derivation for having the lower section content based on desaturation version is provided Show that showing for attribute can indicate, enhance equipment operability (for example, by keep it is enough show can indicate visibility without to User causes undue disturbance, and help user provide realize expected result needed for input), and user equipment is grasped Make more effective (for example, user when by reducing to interference caused by user security risk and reduce using equipment or interact with equipment is wrong Accidentally).

In some embodiments, showing can indicate that instruction (6030) is used to start the conversion zone of Pre-defined gesture input (for example, for showing the home/ multitask gesture of home screen and/or application program switch user interface).For example, this It is shown in Fig. 5 A to Fig. 5 D.In some embodiments, show that can indicate is not practical button.Tap or pressing show that energy table will not touch Send out any function of equipment.In some embodiments, when no longer showing can indicate (for example, at it with application program After screen mode toggle fades out), predefined gesture (for example, home/ multitask gesture) is still as when display, which is shown, to be indicated It works like that.In some embodiments, when detecting user's input (for example, light on home/ multitask gesture or display Hit input etc.) when, being shown again with full screen content display pattern can indicate.This shows that can indicate is that height and length are smaller It is narrow to show and indicate.Indicate that showing for the conversion zone for starting Pre-defined gesture can indicate to be not usually required to have relative to lower section The visibility of content especially enhanced, it is more advantageous because the conversion zone of gesture is usually more roomy than the conversion zone of button Be to show to indicate that the interference to user can be reduced, so that user when helping avoid interacting with equipment malfunctions.Therefore, with Manner described herein use with dynamic change display properties show can indicate to enhance equipment operability (for example, By keep it is enough show can indicate visibility without causing undue disturbance to user, and help user provide realize expectation As a result the input needed for), and make user facility operation more effective (for example, by reducing to interference caused by user security risk and subtracting User's mistake using equipment or when being interacted with equipment less).

black is 0, white for 1) when, equipment detection (8004) is shown and can be indicated The cosmetic variation of content.In response to detecting that display shows that the cosmetic variation for the content that can be indicated, equipment change (8006) and show energy table The appearance (for example, based on short time cosmetic variation strategy and long-time cosmetic variation strategy) shown, comprising: according to determining content Cosmetic variation meets range switching standards (for example, showing the overall brightness or darkness that can indicate content below and around when being located at Measurement (for example, accumulated value and polymerizing value of display properties (for example, gray value or brightness)) due to background content appearance become Change when more than the first predefined thresholds, that is, meet range switching standards): will show can indicate that appearance value range shifts as third model Enclose value (for example, light shows that showing of can indicating can indicate appearance value range [0.6,1], optionally on the scale of black to white, Middle black is 0, and white is 1), wherein third value range is different from second value range (for example, third value range includes not being included in In second value range and optionally at least one nonoverlapping value of second value range) (for example, when meet range switching standards When, showing of currently selecting can indicate that type can indicate that type (for example, implying can indicate) becomes optionally showing from showing of previously having selected Can indicate type (bright to show and indicate)), and third value range (for example, [0.6,1], optionally in black to the scale of white On, wherein black is 0, and white is 1) less than the first value range；And according to the display properties for showing the content that can be indicated Value changes the value for showing the same display attribute that can be indicated (based on type capable of being indicated (for example, bright show energy table with showing of currently selecting Show) mapping of corresponding first predefined value determines the value of the display properties for showing each pixel that can be indicated), wherein showing energy table The display properties shown is confined to indicate to change within the scope of appearance value showing；And it is discontented according to the cosmetic variation for determining content Sufficient range switching standards show the same display attribute that can be indicated according to the change of the value for the display properties for showing the content that can be indicated Value (for example, based on that can indicate type (for example, implying can indicate) corresponding second predefined conversion with showing of currently selecting Relationship determines the value of the display properties for showing each pixel that can be indicated), while will show and can indicate that appearance value range remains (for example, when being unsatisfactory for the first standard, showing for currently selecting can indicate that type keeps showing energy table with what is previously selected to two-value range Show that type (for example, implying can indicate) is identical).For example, this shows in Fig. 5 AD to Fig. 5 AE.

In some embodiments, range switching standards include that (8008) range handover trigger standard and range switching are completed Standard, the cosmetic variation of range handover trigger standard requirements content include the first variable quantity in first time period, first change Change amount makes the predefined measurement of content appearance (for example, (such as, showing can indicate below and show indicate the interior of lower section display properties The polymerization brightness value of a part of appearance) biasing operation mean value) be more than predefined thresholds (for example, when from it is bright show can indicate to cut Hint being changed to when can indicate, predefined thresholds are first threshold, and when from imply can indicate to be switched to it is bright show make a reservation for when can indicate Adopted threshold value is the second threshold different from first threshold), and the cosmetic variation of range switching completion standard requirements content is not wrapped The second variable quantity in second time period after the first period of time is included, to exist in the predefined transformation period (for example, 5 seconds) Cut-off meets range handover trigger standard again before after meeting range handover trigger standard.It is required that meeting range for the first time Range handover trigger standard is not met again within the predefined transformation period after handover trigger standard, to complete two values Showing between range can indicate that appearance range switches, and enhance the operability of equipment (for example, by avoiding unnecessarily switching Appearance type can be indicated and avoid interfering when the variation of lower section content is instantaneous to user by showing), and to use Family equipment operation is more effective (for example, passing through when reducing to interference caused by user security risk and reducing using equipment or interact with equipment User's mistake), so as to improve equipment battery life (for example, reducing since range switches to processor and screen Demand).

In some embodiments, it is used as based on (8010) and shows appearance value range can be indicated (for example, currently used shows energy Indicate the value range of type) current value range select the predefined thresholds for range handover trigger standard, comprising: when showing When can indicate that appearance value range is second value range, use first threshold as predefined thresholds；And appearance can be indicated when showing When value range is third value range, use second threshold as predefined thresholds.(in some embodiments, when showing and can indicate Appearance value range between second value range (for example, value range associated with " hint can indicate ") and third value range (for example, Value range associated with " bright to show and indicate ") between when, predefined thresholds are based on any value range selected recently as showing Appearance value range can be indicated (for example, once selecting to show " bright to show and the indicate " range that can indicate appearance value as showing can indicate outer The target zone of sight value, " bright to show and indicate " threshold value, which is just used to determine when to switch back into, shows " the hint energy table that can indicate appearance value Show " range, and once select to show " hint can the indicate " range of appearance value can be indicated as showing the target that can indicate appearance value Range, " hint can indicate " threshold value are just used to determine when to switch back into and show " bright to show and the indicate " range that can indicate appearance value).Make The operability of equipment is enhanced (for example, being partial to currently select by adjusting with the different threshold values of range handover trigger standard Show and can indicate appearance type and avoid unnecessarily switching the variation for showing and capable of indicating appearance type and avoiding in lower section content Interfered when being instantaneous to user), and make user facility operation more effective (for example, causing by reducing to user Interference and user's mistake when reducing using equipment or being interacted with equipment), so as to improve equipment battery life (for example, Reduce the demand to processor and screen since range switches).

In some embodiments, in response to detecting that the cosmetic variation for the content that can be indicated is shown in display and changes and shows energy table The appearance shown includes (8012): meeting range handover trigger standard simultaneously by the first variable quantity in first time period according to determining And before meeting range and converting standard: will show can indicate that the transfer of appearance value range is and second value range and third value model Different intermediate ranges is enclosed (for example, intermediate range [0.3-0.7], optionally on the scale of black to white, wherein black Color is 0, and white is 1, and the initial value of the intermediate range is between the initial value of second value range and the initial value of third value range Between, and its end value is between the end value of second value range and the end value of third value range)；And according to display Show that the value of the display properties for the content that can be indicated changes the value for showing the same display attribute that can be indicated (based on showing with what is currently selected It can indicate that the corresponding first predefined value mapping of type (for example, bright show and can indicate) shows each pixel that can be indicated to determine The value of display properties), wherein showing that the display properties that can be indicated is confined to indicate to change within the scope of appearance value showing.Some In embodiment, there are multiple intermediate ranges between second value range and third value range, and equipment is predefined It is mobile by each of multiple intermediate ranges in order in the transformation period, until meeting range switching completion standard.? After meeting range switching completion standard, show the display properties that can be indicated when any additional cosmetic variation according to content changes When, show that the display properties that can be indicated is constrained within the scope of third value.To show can indicate the transfer of appearance value range for two it is steady It is fixed to show the intermediate range that indicate the appearance value range of appearance type different (or between them), as steady at two The fixed transformation shown during capable of indicating to switch between appearance type enhances the operability of equipment (for example, by making to cut Change show can indicate that appearance type is more fine and the attention of less dispersion user), and make user facility operation more Effectively (for example, user's mistake when by reducing to interference caused by user security risk and reduce using equipment or interacted with equipment), from And improve equipment battery life (for example, by allow user more rapidly, more effectively operate equipment).

In some embodiments, the cosmetic variation of content include (8014) after the first period of time, meeting range Third variable quantity after handover trigger standard and within the third period before meeting range switching completion standard.Example Such as, after meeting range handover trigger standard, device selection bit in it is bright show can indicate and imply the content that can be indicated is shown can table Appearance reverse curve can be indicated by showing that the medium content between appearance reverse curve shows, and be determined such as using intermediate reverse curve During where changing the period (for example, meeting 5 seconds after range handover trigger standard in) based on the brightness change of content come The brightness that can be indicated is shown in change.It can indicate that appearance range is whithin a period of time another from a stationary value range transfer when showing When stationary value range, allow to show that the appearance that can be indicated continues to enhance the operability (example of equipment with lower section content changing Such as, show the visual continuity that can indicate appearance by providing during switching shows can indicate appearance type), and user is set Standby operation is more effective (for example, user when by reducing to interference caused by user security risk and reduce using equipment or interact with equipment Mistake), so as to improve equipment battery life (for example, by allow user more rapidly, more effectively operate equipment).

In some embodiments, the cosmetic variation for showing the content that can be indicated is that (8016) are caused by the rolling of content , and range switching standards do not need the rolling for lacking content, to meet range switching standards.When rolling lower section content When, allow to show that the appearance that can be indicated with lower section content changing, enhances the operability of equipment (for example, by under rolling There is provided when square content and show the visual continuity that can indicate appearance), and make user facility operation more effective (for example, by subtracting Few user's mistake to interference caused by user security risk and when reducing using equipment or being interacted with equipment), so as to improve the electricity of equipment The pond service life (for example, by allow user more rapidly, more effectively operate equipment).

In some embodiments, the cosmetic variation for showing the content that can be indicated is that (8018) by showing can indicate following Caused by the movement (for example, the scaling of content or rolling) of content, and range switching standards require to show can indicate following interior Hold the movement at least predetermined time quantum and be less than predefined amount, to meet range switching standards.For example, in addition to requiring The predefined measurement of content appearance is (for example, (such as, showing can indicate below and show indicate the one of the content of lower section display properties Partial polymerization brightness value) biasing operation mean value) be more than predefined thresholds except, range switching standards also require content to exist More than the time of predefined thresholds, nearby keeping substantially stationary reaches a bit of time.The interior of lower section can be indicated it is required that being located at and showing Hold substantially stationary (for example, stopping rolling) to meet range switching standards, enhances the operability of equipment (for example, logical Cross avoid unnecessarily toggling when causing content quickly to change due to progressive rolling movement show can indicate appearance type), and And make user facility operation more effective (for example, by reducing to interference caused by user security risk and reducing using equipment or and equipment User's mistake when interaction), it (more rapidly, is more effectively grasped for example, passing through permission user so as to improve the battery life of equipment Make equipment).

In some embodiments, change the value for showing the same display attribute that can be indicated according to the value of the display properties of content Including (8020): having reduced that (and optionally, the value of the display properties of content is the according to the value for the display properties for determining content (for example, two special ranges, which exist, to be shown except two special ranges of contents value in the predefined subrange of one value range The discontinuity point of energy expression value)), energy table is shown to increase according to variation (for example, reduction) amplitude of the value of the display properties of content The value of the display properties shown (for example, when positioned at showing that the content that can indicate lower section becomes darker, showing can indicate to become brighter)；Root Value according to the display properties for determining content has increased that (and optionally, the value of the display properties of content is in the pre- of the first value range It defines in subrange (for example, two special ranges, which exist, shows energy expression value not except two special ranges of contents value Continuity point)), the display properties that shows and can indicate is reduced according to variation (for example, increase) amplitude of the value of the display properties of content Value (for example, when be located at show can indicate below content become brighter when, showing can indicate to become darker).Use value inverts (example Such as, increase when reducing contents value and show the value that can be indicated, and the value that can be indicated is shown in reduction when increasing contents value) come under being based on The value of the display properties of square content determines the value for showing the same display attribute that can be indicated, enhance equipment operability (for example, By provide it is enough show visibility can be indicated without taking sb's mind off sth or having intrusive), and make user facility operation More effectively (for example, user's mistake when by reducing to interference caused by user security risk and reduce using equipment or interacted with equipment), So as to improve equipment battery life (for example, by allow user more rapidly, more effectively operate equipment).

In some embodiments, when the value for showing the display properties that can be indicated changes within the scope of second value (for example, Before meeting range switching standards) and when the value for showing the display properties that can be indicated changes within the scope of third value (for example, After meeting range transfer standard), the given amplitude of variation of the value of the display properties of content, which causes (for example, 8022) to show, to be indicated The identical change amplitude of the value of display properties.For example, this shows in Fig. 5 AE and Fig. 5 AF.In some embodiments, show energy Content between the display properties of expression and the same display attribute of content, which is shown, can indicate appearance reverse curve (for example, showing can table Show brightness and background luminance curve) hint having the same can indicate with it is bright show can indicate shape, and for currently selecting Type can be indicated by showing, the brightness value for showing each pixel that can be indicated is searched from the database of pre-stored brightness value pair.It wants It asks to be located at and shows that the content below capable of indicating substantially stationary (for example, stopping rolling) to meet range switching standards, enhances The operability of equipment is (for example, unnecessarily come switchback when avoid causes content quickly to change and due to progressive rolling movement Change show can indicate appearance type), and make user facility operation more effective (for example, by reducing to interference caused by user security risk And user's mistake when reducing using equipment or being interacted with equipment), (permit for example, passing through so as to improve the battery life of equipment Family allowable more rapidly, more effectively operate equipment).

In some embodiments, equipment, which will be shown, can indicate appearance value range from (8024) second value range (for example, implying Showing for capable of indicating can indicate appearance value range) transfer is third value range (for example, bright show that showing of can indicating can indicate appearance value model Enclose), being included in a period of time (for example, 5 seconds) gradually is third value range from the transfer of second value range；And this method packet It includes, when will gradually show can indicate that appearance value range is shifted from second value range as third value range: detection is shown and can be indicated Content additional cosmetic variation；And in response to detecting that the additional cosmetic variation for the content that can be indicated is shown in display, according to showing Can indicate that appearance value range (for example, can indicate that appearance value range gradually shifts at any time with showing) change is shown can indicate outer It sees, comprising: range switching standards (for example, meeting range switching standards for the second time) is met according to the cosmetic variation for determining content, Start gradually show can indicate appearance value range be transferred back to second value range (for example, a period of time (such as, 1,2,3,4,5, 10 seconds) beginning and end of interior change value range)；And range switching standards are unsatisfactory for according to the cosmetic variation for determining content (for example, meeting range switching standards for the second time), continuation, which will gradually be shown, can indicate that appearance value range is from the transfer of second value range Third value range.In some embodiments, as described above, being used to determine whether to meet the predefined thresholds of range switching standards Based on showing that the target range that can indicate appearance value range is second value range (for example, for hint can indicate) still third value Range (for example, show and can indicate for bright) and change.This method allow to show can indicate within the predefined transformation period gradually from A kind of appearance type is switched to another appearance type；And during the predefined transformation period, show the appearance value that can be indicated Continue to change according to the variation of the appearance value of lower section content.In addition, can meet again range during shifting appearance value range and cut Dehorn is quasi- (for example, due to content and showing that the appearance that can be indicated persistently changes).Therefore, whether again to depend on during changing the period Secondary to meet range switching standards, equipment enables the range triggered and switches to be inverted or continue to complete.For in the transformation period The mechanism of period reversion range switching enhances the operability of equipment (for example, by the way that avoid need not when content quickly changes Strategic point toggle show can indicate appearance type), and make user facility operation more effective (for example, by reducing to user Caused by user's mistake when interfering and reducing using equipment or interacted with equipment), so as to improve the battery life (example of equipment Such as, by allow user more rapidly, more effectively operate equipment).

In some embodiments, change third value meeting range switching standards according to the cosmetic variation of determining content After the value for showing the display properties that can be indicated in range, the additional appearance for the content that can be indicated is shown in equipment detection (8026) Variation；And in response to detecting that the additional cosmetic variation for the content that can be indicated is shown in display, the appearance that can be indicated is shown in equipment change, It include: to meet range handover trigger standard for the first time according to the additional cosmetic variation of determining content and be unsatisfactory for range to have switched At standard, change the value (example for showing the same display attribute that can be indicated according to the value for the display properties for showing the content that can be indicated Such as, true based on that can indicate that type (for example, bright show and can indicate) corresponding first predefined value mapping comes with showing of currently selecting Surely show the value of the display properties for each pixel that can be indicated), wherein showing that the display properties that can be indicated is confined between second It is worth variation in the first intermediate range between range and third value range；According to the additional cosmetic variation of determining content first Meet range handover trigger standard for the second time after secondary and be unsatisfactory for range switching completion standard, according in showing and capable of indicating The value of the display properties of appearance changes the value for showing the same display attribute that can be indicated, wherein showing that the display properties that can be indicated is confined to Change in the second intermediate range between third value range and the first intermediate range；And according to determining content Additional cosmetic variation only once meets range handover trigger standard before meeting range switching completion standard, shows energy according to display The value of the display properties of the content of expression changes the value for showing the same display attribute that can be indicated, wherein showing the display properties that can be indicated It is confined to change within the scope of second value.Show can indicate to be switched to the second appearance type from the first appearance type after (example Such as, in response to meeting range switching standards for the first time), if meeting range handover trigger standard again, showing can indicate open Begin to switch back into the first appearance type from the second appearance type.During the predefined transformation period, appearance value range continues from the The value range transfer of two appearance types is the value range of the first appearance type.During shifting appearance value range, it can expire again Sufficient range handover trigger standard (for example, due to content and showing that the appearance that can be indicated persistently changes).Therefore, the range triggered is cut Changing can invert from its current state and continue again towards the value range of the second appearance type.For anti-during changing the period Turn range switching mechanism enhance the operability of equipment (for example, by avoid when content quickly changes unnecessarily come Switchback change show can indicate appearance type), and make user facility operation more effective (for example, by reducing to caused by user security risk User's mistake when interfering and reducing using equipment or interacted with equipment), so as to improve equipment battery life (for example, logical Cross permission user more rapidly, more effectively operate equipment).

In some embodiments, (for example, scene switching occurs, cause on screen when being initially displayed home and show and can indicate The content of display changes) when, equipment not yet accumulates the information about lower section content of sufficient amount, with various embodiments Described in measurement of the mode based on content appearance select for certain it is bright show can indicate and imply and can indicate.Therefore, equipment is optional The value for showing the display properties that can be indicated sets predefined value by ground, and such as median is (for example, 0.5 or all light angle value 50%) it, then allows above-mentioned dynamic algorithm to update at any time to show appearance can be indicated (for example, according to short time as described herein and length Both time parameter methods).In some embodiments, when be initially displayed show can indicate when, show for switching and can indicate appearance type Progression rates be temporarily increased and (maintain what is currently selected to show the deviation that can indicate type for example, reducing) so that show can table by home Show the appearance based on lower section content rapidly adapt to it is bright show can indicate or imply and can indicate.In some embodiments, such as, when aobvious Show when new application program user interface (for example, via selected in multitask user the application program opened recently or Start application program from application graphs on home screen) when, when pulling down cover user interface (example from the edge of display Such as, system level information screen) with cover currently show application program user interface or home screen when, or work as rotatable user circle When face (for example, due to slewing) etc., it is initially displayed home and shows that the case where capable of indicating switches thing by the scene in user interface Part triggering.In some embodiments, initially use animation transformation shows and can indicate to show, the animation change including at any time by It is cumulative plus show the opacity that can be indicated, will show at any time can indicate from the boundary slip to screen of screen and/or with Time gradually increases the size shown and can indicated.
