In particular, other input devices 024 may include, but are not limited to, one or more of a physical keyboard, function keys (such as volume control keys, switch keys, etc.), a trackball, a mouse, a joystick, a light mouse (a light mouse is a touch-sensitive surface that does not display visual output, or is an extension of a touch-sensitive surface formed by a touch screen), and the like. The other input devices 024 are connected to other input device controllers 021 of the I/O subsystem 031 and interact with the processor 015 under the control of the other input device controllers 021.

A touch display screen (also referred to as a "touch screen") 028 can be used to display information input by or provided to a user and various menus of the terminal device 100, and can also accept user input. The touch screen 028 can include a display panel 029, and a touch panel 030. The Display panel 029 may be configured by an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display), an OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode), or the like. The touch panel 030, also referred to as a touch sensitive screen, may collect contact or non-contact operations (e.g., operations performed by a user on or near the touch panel 030 with any suitable object or accessory such as a finger or a stylus, and may also include body sensing operations; including single-point control operations, multi-point control operations, and other types of operations) by the user, and drive the corresponding connection device according to a preset program. Alternatively, the touch panel 030 may include two parts, a touch detection device and a touch controller.

Fig. 1 shows a fingerprint sensor 032 coupled to a processor peripheral interface. Optionally, the fingerprint sensor 032 may optionally be coupled to the input controller of the I/O subsystem 031. As used herein, a fingerprint sensor is a sensor of fingerprint features (sometimes referred to as "minutiae") that can distinguish between ridges and valleys of skin, such as those found on human fingers and toes. Fingerprint sensors can use any of a variety of techniques to distinguish fingerprint features, including but not limited to: optical fingerprint imaging, ultrasonic fingerprint imaging, active capacitance fingerprint imaging and passive capacitance fingerprint imaging. In some embodiments, in addition to distinguishing fingerprint features in a fingerprint, fingerprint sensor 032 can track the movement of fingerprint features over time, thereby determining a movement of the characterizing fingerprint over time on the fingerprint sensor.

In some embodiments, the fingerprint recognition sensor 032 can be integrated on the touch screen 028. While the fingerprint sensor 032 is shown in fig. 1 as being separate from the touch screen 028 with a touch-sensitive surface, it will be appreciated that in some implementations the fingerprint sensor can be configured to overlap at least a portion of the touch screen 028, in a different example the fingerprint recognition sensor can be configured to be disposed within the touch screen 028, in which case the controller 015 can be configured to recognize the finger of the user touching the touch screen 028 (i.e., the user's fingerprint) through the touch screen 028.

In some embodiments, the "static display" described below may be when the notification message content exceeds notification box 115, the notification content ends in "… …" and the full content cannot be displayed. In some embodiments, the "static display" may also notify that the content of the message content does not exceed the notification box 115, in which the notification message is displayed in its entirety.

In some embodiments, such as fig. 2, where the terminal device 100 is currently the primary interface 110, the notification message may be displayed in a notification box 115. In some embodiments, the notification message may be displayed in the notification frame 115 under any of the application interface 111, the lock screen interface 112, the notification bar interface 113, and the cross screen interface 114.

In some embodiments, upon receipt of the notification message, the notification box 115 may pop up over various interfaces or other locations, or display directly, and may automatically disappear after a period of time, or be manually removed by the user.

In some embodiments, the terminal device 100 may scroll horizontally in the notification box 115 to display a first short message from the favorite contact if the first short message is received, or scroll vertically or statically or not in the notification box 115 to display a second short message from a stranger if the second short message is received, on any interface (e.g., the main interface 110 or the application interface 111). In some embodiments, the first short message and the second short message may also be from different applications (e.g., WeChat and Facebook). In some embodiments, the scrolling effects include, but are not limited to: scroll left, scroll right, scroll up, scroll down, scroll back and forth in different directions, start scrolling, pause scrolling, blink, etc.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 3A and 3B, the current interface of the terminal device 100 is the main interface 110, and the notification message is displayed by scrolling the entire content in the notification box 115.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 4A and 4B, the terminal device 100 is currently the main interface 110, and the full notification content or part of the notification content is displayed in the notification frame 115 by scrolling in the vertical direction.

In particular, the scrolling effect is not limited to only the lateral direction, the longitudinal direction, and the like. In some embodiments, the scrolling mode may be scrolling the display up and down or left and right. In some embodiments, the user can customize the time for scrolling the display, such as stopping scrolling after 5S or hiding the notification box.

In some embodiments, the important information in the notification content may be time, phone number, verification code, flight shift, verification code, etc., and the identified important information may be identified. For example, the identification may be in bold, highlighted, in some embodiments, to facilitate the user in identifying the source of the notification message, either from a contact, stranger, or application. In some embodiments, the priority of important information in the notification message may be identified, e.g., time priority over phone number, flight/train priority over identifying code, etc. In some embodiments, priority may be set according to the source from which the notification message is to be sent, and by way of example, contacts may be set to have a higher priority for favorite or star contacts than for general contacts, which are higher priority than for strangers. In some embodiments, the display may be in different scrolling effects (e.g., different frequency or rate, blinking, etc.) depending on the source of the notification message.

In some embodiments, whether the important contact is an important contact or not can be determined according to query and matching of a contact or WeChat contact database, and identification of part of information in the notification content can be performed by regular expression matching by using a general technology, so that the notification message content can be viewed in a humanized manner in different scenes.

In some embodiments, the current terminal device 100 is an application interface 111. As shown in fig. 5A and 5B, taking the WeChat (WeChat) program as an example, in order not to affect the user experience, the pop-up of the notification box 115 does not affect some display information and important controls of the application program interface 111, does not cover the "return" control and the "chatting people information" control, and scrolls the notification content in the adjusted notification box 115. In particular, the present embodiment is not limited to the wechat program interface, and in some embodiments, for example, under a game interface, a video playing interface, and the like, the notification box 115 may be set not to cover the control or the setting of the display content, such as the video playing, the volume button, the important parameter such as the attack operation button of the game, the life value, and the like. In some embodiments, it may also be set that the notification content is not displayed under the application program interface 111, that is, the no-disturbance mode is set, so as to improve the user experience. In some embodiments, the scrolling mode may be scrolling the display up and down or left and right. In some embodiments, the user can customize the time for scrolling the display, such as stopping scrolling after 5S or hiding the notification box.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 6A, when the terminal device 100 is currently in the lock screen interface 112 and is configured to "not display content at all" when the lock screen is locked, the notification message content is hidden or encrypted in the notification box 115, for example, a "short message: you receive a message, please check it up ". In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 6E, the user may also customize the lock screen interface as desired and may also display the notification message content. At this time, the terminal device 100 is currently the lock screen interface 112 and is set to "display all content" when the lock screen is locked, the notification message may scroll to display the notification content in the notification box 115.

In some embodiments, the lock screen interface 112 is configured to "not display message content" based on security considerations, but viewing notification messages after unlocking is cumbersome, and the present implementation provides a method for scrolling display notification messages based on fingerprint identification. As shown in fig. 6B, 6C, and 6D, the screen fingerprint identification area collects fingerprint patterns, and if the fingerprint patterns can be matched with the stored fingerprint patterns, the notification message is scrolled and displayed in the notification box 115. The fingerprint sensor may be provided at other positions of the terminal device 100. In particular, a touch operation may also be allowed, and if the touch trajectory matches a preset trajectory, the notification message scrolls to display the notification content in the notification bar under the lock screen interface 112. In some embodiments, the scrolling mode may be scrolling the display up and down or left and right. In some embodiments, the user can customize the time for scrolling the display, such as stopping scrolling after 5S or hiding the notification box.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 7A, 7B, the terminal device 100 is currently in the notification bar interface 113, and the notification message is horizontally scrolled in the notification bar 113. In some embodiments, when notification bar interface 112 displays multiple notification messages, different scrolling effects may be set depending on the source of the notification message (e.g., favorite contacts, strangers, etc.) or the type of message (e.g., message from WeChat, message from Facebook), including but not limited to: scroll left, scroll right, scroll up, scroll down, scroll back and forth in different directions, start scrolling, pause scrolling, blink, etc.

In some embodiments, the user may also customize the display of scrolling message content under the notification bar interface 112. In some embodiments, the scrolling mode may be scrolling the display up and down or left and right. In some embodiments, the user may customize the time for scrolling the display, such as stopping scrolling after 5S or hiding the notification box 115.

In some embodiments, portions of the content of the notification message may be highlighted. In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 8A, a part of the content in the notification message may also be displayed with a scrolling effect, such as highlighting or thickening, flashing, and the like. In some embodiments, a part of the content in the notification message may also be displayed in a position-shifting manner, i.e., rearranged. Such as partial content move forward, etc., as shown in fig. 8B, the verification code is "88888", which is moved to the forefront of the notification message, especially when the application program interface 111 inputs the verification code, the quick input can be realized without switching the program to view the message content.

In some implementations, portions of the content in the notification message may also be displayed at different frequencies and rates. In some embodiments, scrolling for different effects may also be performed based on the priority of the source of the message. In some embodiments, scrolling of different effects is performed under different interfaces. In some embodiments, the time at which the notification message is displayed may be set, and in particular, the time at which the notification message is displayed may be set differently in different user interfaces or scenarios, e.g., the frequency and rate of scrolling may be slower in the case of the main page 110 than in the case of the application interface 111.

In some embodiments, the notification message content may be scrolled to the right in a default manner (e.g., sideways). In some embodiments, as in fig. 9A, the notification content scrolling direction may be set to the vertical direction by different operations such as double-clicking, long-pressing, pressure-touching, voice-controlling, different fingerprints, image capturing, hardware buttons, and the like. In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 9B and 9C, the notification content scrolling direction can be changed to the horizontal direction by different gesture operations such as double-clicking, long-pressing, pressure touch, voice control, different fingerprints, image capturing, hardware buttons, and the like. In some embodiments, different gestures or operations, such as double-click, long-press, pressure touch, voice control, different fingerprints, image capture, hardware buttons, etc., may be set as trigger or stop conditions for notification of message scrolling. In some embodiments, the gesture may also be user-defined, and the terminal device 100 may provide a portal for the user-defined gesture.

In some embodiments, the terminal device 100 is currently the landscape interface 114 and does not scroll. In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 10 and 11, the terminal device 100 is currently a landscape interface 114, and the notification frame 115 may scroll the content of the notification message in the adjusted notification frame 115 so as not to obscure the display elements such as the controls of the current interface. In some embodiments, the scrolling mode may be scrolling the display up and down or left and right. In some embodiments, the user may customize the time for scrolling the display, such as stopping scrolling after 5S or hiding the notification box 115.

In some embodiments, the area where the terminal device 100 receives the gesture operation (including the fingerprint) may be a notification box 115 area. In some embodiments, the area of the gesture operation (including the fingerprint) may also be a blank area of the user interface.

In a mobile terminal, in some embodiments, as in fig. 12A, the notification module 004 includes at least: at least one notification processing module 201, at least one scene recognition module 202, at least one notification display module 203; in some embodiments, as in fig. 12B, notification module 004 includes at least: at least one notification processing module 201, at least one scene recognition module 202, at least one notification display module 203, at least one semantic recognition module 204, at least one gesture recognition module 205. In particular, the structure of the notification module 004 is not limited to the above two, and can be freely combined to realize different scrolling effects.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 13, before the notification message is scroll-displayed in the notification box 115, the terminal device 100 first determines the relationship between the content of the notification message and the notification box 115, and detects whether the content of the notification exceeds the boundary of the notification box 115. The judging steps are as follows:

the method comprises the following steps: acquiring the height H1 and the width W1 of the notification layout display;

step two: acquiring the text content of the notification, the font size of the display of the notification content and the margin value of the content from the layout, and calculating a length value L2 required by the complete display of the notification content;

step three: calculating the maximum display line number of the notification (or the maximum display line number set by the system) according to the font size and the layout height of the text, and dividing the length value required by the complete content by the layout width W1 to obtain the line number required by the complete content;

step four: and finally, comparing the line number required for displaying the complete content with the maximum line number allowed by the actual layout, if the maximum line number allowed by the layout is less than the line number required for displaying the complete content, informing that scrolling display is required, and otherwise, not requiring scrolling display.

In some embodiments, the specific calculation scheme is as follows: the width occupied by the single line notification is (derived from the layout left and right boundary parameters): w1-2 x1, the height occupied by a single line notification is (calculated from font size and layout upper and lower bounds): h +2 y1, the maximum number of display rows of the layout is: total height H1/height occupied by a single-line notification (H +2 x y1), the length required for complete display of the notification content is (calculated from font size and number of characters): l2, the number of rows required for complete display of the notification content is: l2/(w1-2 × 1), if the number of lines L2/(w1-2 × 1) required for the notification content to be displayed completely is larger than the maximum number of display lines H1/(H +2 × y1) of the layout, the notification requires scrolling of the display, otherwise it does not. Meanwhile, if the difference value between the row number required by the complete display of the notification content and the maximum display row number of the layout is larger than a threshold value N (N can take the values of 1, 2 and 3 …), the notification content is scrolled and displayed in the vertical direction (the content can be read out more quickly); otherwise, the notification content is displayed using horizontal scrolling.

The present embodiment further provides a schematic diagram of a method for displaying notification messages in different scrolling modes based on different sources of the notification messages. As shown in fig. 14, in step S100, a first notification message having a first source and a second notification message having a second source are obtained, wherein the first source is different from the second source. In the step S110, the first notification message and the second notification message are scroll-displayed with different scroll effects, wherein the first notification message stops being displayed before the second notification message is scroll-displayed; or the first notification message and the second notification are simultaneously displayed in the first area of the first user interface.

The embodiment also provides a method for judging whether the notification message is scroll-displayed. As shown in fig. 15, in step S200, a notification message is acquired. In step S210, it is determined whether the content of the notification message exceeds the notification frame, if so, the step S230 is performed to perform scrolling display, otherwise, the step S240 is performed to perform static display. Wherein S220 is determining the current display interface.

The embodiment also provides a method for recommending the scrolling display direction of the notification message. As shown in fig. 16, in step S300, when the notification module receives or detects a notification message of an incoming program. In step S310, the notification processing module determines whether the notification content exceeds the maximum display line number of the display layout frame, and if not, statically displays the notification message (S340), otherwise, proceeds to the next step S320. In step S320, it is further determined whether the content of the notification message is greater than the maximum display line number + N of the notification layout frame, where N may be 0, 1, 2, or the like. Finally, the result is the horizontal direction (S350). If not, the display is scrolled in the vertical direction (S330).
