When the first body and the second body move relatively, the relative position of the first body and the second body is detected. For example, when the relative movement between the first body and the second body is a relative distancing movement, the relative position between the first body and the second body may be perpendicular to each other. When the relative movement between the first body and the second body is relative rotation, the relative positions between the first body and the second body may overlap each other.

It should be noted that the probability that the first display area and/or the second display area will be used includes a probability of whether the first display area and/or the second display area is used, and also includes a usage probability of which usage manner is specifically adopted by the first display area and/or the second display area. For example, when a specific change occurs in the relative positions of the first body and the second body, the first body and the second body are changed from being perpendicular to each other to being overlapped with each other, the obtained information parameter may be related to the probability that the first display region or the second display region will be used. After the information parameters are obtained, a display strategy of the first display area and/or the second display area is further established. When the display strategy is formulated, one implementation manner may be that when the relative position of the first ontology and the second ontology is specifically changed, the current intention of the user is predicted, and the display strategy of the first display area and/or the second display area is formulated according to the prediction result.

This is disclosed can formulate the display strategy through detecting relative position of relative motion between first body and the second body, determine user's different demands, and then take corresponding control to the output of electronic equipment's display area, has promoted user experience.

In order to more clearly describe the technical solution of the present disclosure, a detailed description is given below by taking a specific application scenario as an example.

As shown in fig. 2, which is a flowchart of embodiment 2 of a control method disclosed in the present disclosure, the method may be applied to an electronic device, where the electronic device at least includes a first body and a second body, and for example, the electronic device may be a notebook computer, the first body may be a base end of the notebook computer, and the second body may be a cover end of the notebook computer; the electronic equipment at least comprises a first display area and a second display area, wherein the first display area has first power consumption, the second display area has second power consumption, and the first power consumption is lower than the second power consumption; for example, the first display area may be a display area of an electronic ink screen, and the second display area may be a display area of an LCD display screen; the first display area may be located on the first body, and the second display area may be located on the second body; the method may comprise the steps of:

s201, detecting the relative position of relative movement between the first body and the second body;

S202, responding to specific change of the relative position, obtaining information parameters, wherein the information parameters are related to the probability that the first display area and/or the second display area are/is used, and formulating a display strategy based on the currently running application of the electronic equipment;

and after the relative position of the relative movement between the first body and the second body is detected, further responding to the specific change of the relative position of the first body and the second body to obtain the information parameter. Wherein the obtained information parameter is related to a probability that the first display area and/or the second display area of the electronic device will be used. It should be noted that the probability that the first display area and/or the second display area will be used includes a probability of whether the first display area and/or the second display area is used, and also includes a usage probability of which usage manner is specifically adopted by the first display area and/or the second display area. For example, when a specific change occurs in the relative positions of the first body and the second body, the first body and the second body are changed from being perpendicular to each other to being overlapped with each other, the obtained information parameter may be related to the probability that the first display region or the second display region will be used. Wherein the specific change of the relative position of the first body and the second body may include: transforming the electronic device from the first form to the second form may further include transforming the electronic device from the second form to the first form, wherein the first form indicates that the first display area and the second display area can be in the working state at the same time, and the second form indicates that the first display area or the second display area can be in the working state. For example, the first mode may refer to a notebook mode of the notebook computer, and the second mode may refer to a Pad mode of the notebook computer after deformation.

After the information parameters are obtained, a display strategy of the first display area and/or the second display area is further established. When the display strategy is formulated, one implementation manner may be that when the relative position of the first ontology and the second ontology is specifically changed, the current intention of the user is predicted, and the display strategy of the first display area and/or the second display area is formulated according to the prediction result. Accordingly, when the current intention of the user is predicted, the prediction can be performed through the application currently running by the electronic device, that is, a corresponding display strategy is made according to the application currently running by the electronic device.

S203, determining that the currently running application of the electronic equipment meets a target application condition, wherein the target application condition represents that display content output by the application can be displayed on a first display area;

and after the display strategy is formulated, controlling the output of the first display area and/or the second display area according to the formulated display strategy. Specifically, it may be determined whether content output by an application currently running on the electronic device can be displayed on the first display area. For example, when the first display area is a display area of the electronic ink screen, whether content output by an application currently running by the electronic equipment can be displayed on the electronic ink screen is judged; for example, when the application currently running by the electronic device is an electronic book, it is determined that the content output by the electronic book application currently running by the electronic device can be displayed in the display area of the electronic ink screen.

And S204, controlling the first display area to output the display content output by the application.

And when the content output by the application currently running by the electronic equipment is determined to be capable of being displayed on the first display area, further controlling the first display area to output the display content output by the application currently running by the electronic equipment. For example, when the first display area is a display area of an electronic ink screen and an application currently running on the electronic device is an electronic book, the content of the electronic output can be controlled to be output and displayed in the first display area.

It should be noted that, when it is determined that the display of the application output currently running by the electronic device can be displayed on the first display area and the first display area is controlled to output the display content of the application output, if the content output by the application currently running by the electronic device is originally displayed on the first display area, when it is determined that the display of the application output currently running by the electronic device can be displayed on the first display area, the content output by the application currently running by the electronic device is kept displayed on the first display area; if the content output by the application currently running by the electronic equipment is displayed on the second display area, switching the display content output by the application currently running by the electronic equipment from the second display area to the first display area for displaying when the display output by the application currently running by the electronic equipment is determined to be capable of being displayed on the first display area.

In summary, in the embodiment, when it is determined that the content output by the application currently running on the electronic device can be displayed in the first display area, the content output by the application currently running on the electronic device is controlled to be displayed in the first display area, and because the first display area has lower power consumption than the second display area, the content output by the application currently running on the electronic device is controlled to be displayed in the first display area, so that the power consumption of the electronic device is effectively reduced, and the user experience is improved.

Specifically, on the basis of the above embodiment, after determining that the display of the application output currently running by the electronic device can be displayed on the first display area and controlling the first display area to output the display content of the application output, the second display area may be further controlled. As shown in fig. 3, the following steps may be included:

s301, detecting the relative position of the relative motion between the first body and the second body;

s302, responding to specific change of the relative position, obtaining information parameters, wherein the information parameters are related to the probability that the first display area and/or the second display area are/is used, and formulating a display strategy based on the currently running application of the electronic equipment;

s303, determining that the currently running application of the electronic equipment meets a target application condition, wherein the target application condition represents that display content output by the application can be displayed on a first display area;

s304, controlling the first display area to output display contents output by the application;

and S305, controlling the second display area to be closed.

After the display of the application output currently running by the electronic equipment is determined to be capable of being displayed on the first display area and the first display area is controlled to output the display content of the application output, the second display area can be further controlled to be closed, namely the second display area is controlled to be in a stop working state. When the content output by the application currently running in the electronic equipment is output and displayed in the first display area, the second display area is further controlled to be in a work stop state, the power consumption of the electronic equipment is further reduced, and the user experience is improved. Specifically, on the basis of the above embodiment, when the specific change includes that the electronic device is transformed from the second form to the first form, the following manner may be adopted to control the output of the first display region and/or the second display region, as shown in fig. 4, and the following steps may be included:

s401, detecting the relative position of relative movement between the first body and the second body;

s402, responding to specific change of the relative position, obtaining information parameters, wherein the information parameters are related to the probability that the first display area and/or the second display area will be used, and making a display strategy based on the application currently running in the electronic equipment and the detected gesture of the user;

s403, determining that the currently running application of the electronic equipment meets a target application condition, wherein the target application condition represents that display content output by the application can be displayed on a first display area;

s404, controlling the first display area to output display content output by the application;

s405, controlling the second display area to be closed;

s406, when the specific change is determined to include that the electronic equipment is transformed from the second form to the first form, determining that the detected posture of the user meets a target posture condition;

after determining that the display of the application output currently running by the electronic device can be displayed on the first display area, controlling the first display area to output the display content of the application output, controlling the second display area to be closed, further judging the detected posture of the user to predict the intention of the user to use the electronic device when the electronic device is converted from the second form to the first form according to the specific change occurring according to the relative position of the detected relative motion between the first body and the second body, for example, when the notebook computer is converted from the Pad mode to the notebook mode, and judging whether the detected posture of the user meets a target posture condition when the detected posture of the user is judged, wherein the target posture condition is that the second display area of the electronic device is used by the user currently. For example, the detected posture of the user is changed from the lying state to the sitting state.

And S407, controlling the display content output by the application to be switched from the first display area to the second display area for output and display.

When the detected gesture of the user is determined to meet the target gesture condition, the second display area is further controlled to be in a working state, and the display content output by the application is switched from the first display area to the second display area for output and display. One application scenario of the above technical solution may be that when the notebook computer is in the pad mode, the user views the content output by the electronic book through the first display area in a lying posture, and when the user changes the notebook computer from the pad mode to the notebook computer mode, the user simultaneously changes from the lying posture to a sitting posture, at this time, the current intention of the user may be predicted through the series of actions of the user, and if the user wants to view the content output by the electronic book through the second display area, the content output by the electronic book is switched from the first display area to the second display area for output and display.

Therefore, the output of the first display area and/or the second display area of the electronic equipment can be further controlled according to the gesture of the user, and the user experience is further improved.

Specifically, on the basis of the above embodiment, after the display content output by the control application is switched from the first display area to the second display area for output and display, the first display area may be further controlled. As shown in fig. 5, the following steps may be included:

s501, detecting the relative position of relative motion between the first body and the second body;

s502, responding to specific change of the relative position, obtaining information parameters, wherein the information parameters are related to the probability that the first display area and/or the second display area will be used, and making a display strategy based on the application currently running in the electronic equipment and the detected gesture of the user;

s503, determining that the currently running application of the electronic equipment meets a target application condition, wherein the target application condition represents that display content output by the application can be displayed on a first display area;

s504, controlling the first display area to output display content output by the application;

s505, controlling the second display area to be closed;

s506, when the specific change is determined to include that the electronic equipment is transformed from the second form to the first form, determining that the detected posture of the user meets a target posture condition;

s507, controlling the display content output by the application to be switched from the first display area to the second display area for output and display;

and S508, controlling the first display area to be closed.

After the display content output by the application is controlled to be switched from the first display area to the second display area for output and display, the first display area can be further controlled to be closed, namely the first display area is controlled to be in a stop working state. When the content output by the application currently running in the electronic equipment is output and displayed in the second display area, the first display area is further controlled to be in a work stop state, the power consumption of the electronic equipment is further reduced, and the user experience is improved.

As shown in fig. 6, which is a flowchart of embodiment 6 of a control method disclosed in the present disclosure, the method may be applied to an electronic device, where the electronic device at least includes a first body and a second body, and for example, the electronic device may be a notebook computer, the first body may be a base end of the notebook computer, and the second body may be a cover end of the notebook computer; the electronic device at least further comprises a first display area and a second display area, for example, the first display area can be a display area of an LCD display screen, a display area of an electronic ink screen, a display area of a flexible screen, and the like, and the second display area can be a display area of an LCD display screen, a display area of a flexible screen, and the like; the first display area may be located on the first body, and the second display area may be located on the second body; the method may comprise the steps of:

s601, detecting the relative position of the relative motion between the first body and the second body;

S602, responding to specific change of the relative position, obtaining information parameters, wherein the information parameters are related to the probability that the first display area and/or the second display area will be used, and formulating a display strategy based on the operation of a user on the application currently running on the electronic equipment;

After the information parameters are obtained, a display strategy of the first display area and/or the second display area is further established. When the display strategy is formulated, one implementation manner may be that when the relative position of the first ontology and the second ontology is specifically changed, the current intention of the user is predicted, and the display strategy of the first display area and/or the second display area is formulated according to the prediction result. Accordingly, when predicting the current intention of the user, a display policy may be formulated based on the user's operation of an application currently running on the electronic device.

S603, determining that the operation of the user on the application currently running on the electronic equipment meets a first target operation condition;

and further judging the operation of the user on the application currently running by the electronic equipment, and judging whether the operation of the user on the application currently running by the electronic equipment meets the first target operation condition. The first target operation condition at least represents that the user wants to continue operating the application currently running on the electronic equipment.

S604, controlling the content output by the application currently running by the electronic equipment to be kept in the currently displayed display area, wherein the currently displayed display area is the first display area or the second display area.

When the operation of the user on the application currently running on the electronic equipment is determined to meet the first target operation condition, namely when the user is determined to continuously operate the application currently running on the electronic equipment, controlling the content output by the application currently running on the electronic equipment to be kept in the currently displayed display area. In one application scenario of the foregoing technical solution, when a user is operating an application in the first display area, such as drawing, and the drawn content is not stored yet, and when a specific change in the relative position of the first body and the second body of the electronic device is detected, such as the electronic device is switched from the notebook computer mode to the pad mode, it is presumed that the user currently switches the electronic device from the notebook computer mode to the pad mode based on the operation of the user on the drawing application, and only wants to switch a gesture and a shape to continue drawing, so that after the electronic device is switched from the notebook computer mode to the pad mode, the content output by the drawing application is controlled to be maintained in the first display area. Another application scenario of the foregoing technical solution may also be that, in a notebook mode of a notebook computer, a user reads content output by an electronic book through a first display region (e.g., a display region of an electronic ink screen), when it is detected that the electronic device is changed from the notebook mode to a Pad mode by the user, a conventional control manner for a display screen of the electronic device is to switch the content output by the electronic book to a second display region (e.g., a display region of an LCD screen) for display, at this time, an intention of the user may only be to change a posture to read the content output by the electronic book, at this time, if the content output by the electronic book is switched to the LCD screen for display, the display manner of the content output by the electronic book is frequently switched, which easily causes a user to experience not good, and when it is detected that the electronic device is changed from the notebook mode to the Pad mode by the user, the control manner is adopted, the content output by the electronic book is still controlled to be displayed in the display area of the electronic ink screen, and the user experience is improved.

In summary, in the above embodiments, when the relative position of the relative operation between the first ontology and the second ontology of the electronic device is specifically changed, the intention of the user may be predicted through the operation of the user on the application currently running on the electronic device, a corresponding display policy is formulated, and then the output of the first display area and/or the second display area is controlled, so that the current state of the first display area and/or the second display area is more suitable for the user, and the user experience is improved.

S703, determining that the operation of the user on the application currently running on the electronic equipment meets a second target operation condition;

when the electronic device is transformed from the second form to the first form, whether the operation of the application currently running on the electronic device by the user meets a second target condition is further judged, wherein the second target condition at least represents that the user wants to adopt the virtual keyboard component of the electronic device to operate the application currently running on the electronic device.

S704, controlling a first display area to output a virtual keyboard component of the electronic equipment;

and after the electronic equipment is converted from the second form to the first form, and the operation of the user on the application currently running on the electronic equipment is determined to meet the second target operation condition, controlling the first display area of the electronic equipment to output the virtual keyboard component of the electronic equipment, wherein the user can perform input operation on the application currently running on the electronic equipment through the output virtual keyboard component.

Meanwhile, the display content output by the application currently running by the electronic equipment is controlled to be displayed in the second display area, so that the user can conveniently check the display content. One of the application scenarios in the above technical solutions may be that a user returns information on the first display area in a Pad mode of the notebook computer, for example, returns a minute message in a voice mode, at this time, if the user switches the notebook computer from the Pad mode to the notebook mode, it is predicted that the user intends to use the virtual keyboard component, and by inputting the reply information in the virtual keyboard component, the first display area is controlled to output the virtual keyboard component of the electronic device, so that the user performs an input operation conveniently, and the second display area is controlled to output display content output by an application currently running on the electronic device, so that the user can view the display content conveniently.
