When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, the same numerals in different drawings refer to the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The implementations described in the following exemplary examples do not represent all implementations consistent with the present disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with aspects of the present disclosure as recited in the appended claims.

Fig. 1 is a flowchart showing a picture rotation control method according to an exemplary embodiment, and the picture rotation control method may include the following steps.

In step 101, the number of rotations of the electronic device is acquired when a picture application program for displaying pictures is running in the foreground.

In step 102, when the number of rotations reaches a predetermined threshold, a state modification control is displayed according to the current state of the automatic screen rotation function of the electronic device, and the above state is locked or unlocked.

In step 103, when the state modification control is triggered, the state of the automatic screen rotation function is modified.

To sum up, the picture rotation control method provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure detects the number of rotations of the electronic device, and when it is detected that the number of rotations reaches a predetermined threshold, it is considered that the current state of the automatic screen rotation function of the electronic device does not meet the user's needs. At this time, the user is provided with a control for modifying the state of the screen auto-rotation function, which solves the problem of cumbersome operation of switching the state of the screen auto-rotation function in the related art, and simplifies the user's operation of switching the state of the screen auto-rotation function.

Fig. 2A is a flow chart showing a picture rotation control method according to another exemplary embodiment, and the picture rotation control method may include the following steps.

In step 201, the number of rotations of the electronic device is acquired when a picture application program for displaying pictures is running in the foreground.

The application program used for displaying pictures mentioned here may be a picture viewer, a browser, and the like.

Optionally, when the picture application program is running in the foreground, the gravity sensing direction of the electronic device is acquired in real time, and the attitude of the electronic device is determined according to the acquired gravity sensing direction. When it is detected that the frame at the bottom changes, it is recorded as that the electronic device is rotated once. For example, FIG. 2B is a schematic diagram showing the rotation of an electronic device according to an exemplary embodiment. The initial posture of the mobile phone is shown in FIG. 2B (1), and at this time it is detected that the bottom border of the electronic device is the bottom border , when the user rotates the electronic device counterclockwise as shown in Figure 2B (2), at this time it is detected that the left frame of the electronic device is the frame at the bottom, and it is detected that the frame at the bottom of the electronic device has changed, it is considered that the electronic device The device rotated once.

In step 202, when the number of rotations reaches a predetermined threshold, a state modification control is displayed according to the current state of the automatic screen rotation function of the electronic device.

The predetermined times threshold is usually set by a system developer, and optionally, the predetermined times threshold is set to 2.

When the number of rotations of the electronic device reaches a predetermined threshold, it is considered that the current state of the automatic screen rotation function may not meet the needs of the user, and at this time, a state modification control for modifying the state of the automatic screen rotation function is provided to the user.

The automatic screen rotation function mentioned here is a function for the electronic device to automatically rotate the screen display direction of the electronic device according to the gravity sensing direction acquired in real time. The status of the screen auto-rotation function includes locking and unlocking. When the screen auto-rotation function is unlocked, the electronic device controls the screen display direction of the electronic device to automatically rotate according to the gravity sensing direction acquired in real time; when the screen auto-rotation function is locked, the electronic device The screen display orientation is locked.

Specifically, this step can be implemented through the following two possible implementation manners.

In a first possible implementation manner, when the current state of the automatic screen rotation function of the electronic device is locked, a first state modification control for guiding the unlocking of the automatic screen rotation function is displayed.

In order to avoid the occlusion of the content displayed on the screen by the modification control in the first state. Optionally, when the first state modification control is continuously displayed on the display screen for a preset duration, the display of the first state modification control is canceled.

In a second possible implementation manner, when the current state of the automatic screen rotation function of the electronic device is unlocked, a second state modification control for guiding and locking the automatic screen rotation function is displayed.

In order to avoid the occlusion of the content displayed on the screen by the second state modification control. Optionally, when the second state modification control is continuously displayed on the display screen for a preset duration, the display of the second state modification control is canceled.

In step 203, when the state modification control is triggered, the state of the automatic screen rotation function is modified.

Specifically, this step can be implemented through the following two possible implementation manners.

In a first possible implementation manner, when the state modification control is a first state modification control, and the first state modification control is triggered, the automatic screen rotation function of the electronic device is unlocked.

In a second possible implementation manner, when the state modification control is a second state modification control, and the second state modification control is triggered, the automatic screen rotation function of the electronic device is locked.

To sum up, the picture rotation control method provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure detects the number of rotations of the electronic device, and when it is detected that the number of rotations reaches a predetermined threshold, it is considered that the current state of the automatic screen rotation function of the electronic device does not meet the user's needs. At this time, the user is provided with a control for modifying the state of the screen auto-rotation function, which solves the problem of cumbersome operation of switching the state of the screen auto-rotation function in the related art, and simplifies the user's operation of switching the state of the screen auto-rotation function.

When the automatic screen rotation function of the electronic device is unlocked, in order to enable the user to lie on the bed and browse pictures on the electronic device, the display direction of the screen meets the needs of the user to view pictures. The locking of the automatic screen rotation function can be realized through several steps as shown in FIG. 2C . FIG. 2C is a flow chart of a method for realizing the locking of the automatic screen rotation function according to an exemplary embodiment.

In step 204a, when the picture application program is running in the foreground, the last screen display orientation of the electronic device before the picture application program is started is obtained.

In this embodiment, the last screen display direction of the electronic device before the picture application program is started is obtained as a reference direction that meets the user's need for viewing pictures.

Fig. 2D is a schematic diagram showing the last screen display direction of the electronic device before the picture application program is started according to an exemplary embodiment. For example, as shown in FIG. 2D (1), when the user opens the picture application by triggering the icon of the picture application on the desktop, the acquired screen display orientation of the electronic device before the picture application is opened is is the first direction 21 , the first direction mentioned here is the direction from the top of the electronic device to the bottom of the electronic device.

For another example, the user can pre-set a certain physical button as a shortcut button to trigger the foreground operation of the picture application program, as shown in Figure 2D (2), when the user uses the horizontal screen to watch the video, the user can trigger the above physical button to trigger the picture If the application program is running in the foreground, the final screen display direction of the electronic device before the image application program is opened is the second direction 22, and the second direction mentioned here is from the left border of the electronic device to the right border of the electronic device direction.

Triggering the icon of the picture application on the desktop is a commonly used method for opening the picture application. When the user opens the picture application through this method, the obtained screen display direction is the first direction. In order to make the above screen display direction as a reference direction closer to the user's need for viewing pictures, optionally, obtain the screen display direction when the last application running in the foreground on the electronic device exits before the picture application is opened.

For example, as shown in FIG. 2D(2), the user exits the application program used for watching the video to the desktop of the electronic device after using the horizontal screen to watch the video. The user opens the application by triggering the icon of the picture application on the desktop, and the electronic device obtains that the screen display direction of the last application running in the foreground on the electronic device before the picture application is opened is the second direction 22, That is to say, the second direction 22 is used as a reference direction that meets the needs of the user for viewing pictures.

In step 204b, the gravity sensing direction of the electronic device when the picture application program is running in the foreground is acquired.

When the picture application program is running in the foreground, the electronic device can obtain the gravity sensing direction of the electronic device in real time through the gravity sensor built in the electronic device. It should be noted that the acquisition of the gravity sensing direction by the electronic device can be realized by those skilled in the art, so this embodiment will not repeat this, nor specifically limit the method for the electronic device to obtain the gravity sensing direction.

In step 204c, when the angle between the screen display direction and the gravity sensing direction reaches the first angle threshold for the first time and the automatic screen rotation function of the electronic device is unlocked, the automatic screen rotation function of the electronic device is locked.

The first angle threshold mentioned here is usually set by a system developer, and this embodiment does not specifically limit the specific data of the first angle threshold.

The screen display direction obtained in step 204a meets the user's requirement for viewing pictures. When the screen auto-rotation function of the electronic device is unlocked, when the angle between the screen display direction and the gravity sensing direction reaches the first angle threshold for the first time, in order to make the screen display direction meet the user's needs, lock it at this time The automatic screen rotation function of the electronic device keeps the display direction of the screen unchanged.

Fig. 2E is a schematic diagram showing a display direction of a locked screen according to an exemplary embodiment. For example, if the first angle threshold is set to be 60 degrees, when the user lies on the side of the bed, as shown in Figure 2E (1), when the picture application is opened by clicking the icon of the picture application on the desktop, the electronic device obtains The last screen display direction of the electronic device before the picture application is started is the first direction 21 . After the picture application program is opened, the application program runs in the foreground, and at this time, the gravity sensing direction of the electronic device is the third direction 23 . At this time, the angle between the screen display direction and the gravity sensing direction is 90 degrees, which exceeds the first angle threshold of 60 degrees, and the automatic rotation function of the control screen is turned off. Correspondingly, the display direction of the screen is still the first direction 21 , as shown in FIG. 2E ( 2 ), which meets the needs of the user to view pictures while lying on his side.

By using the last screen display direction of the electronic device before the picture application is opened as a reference direction that meets the needs of users to browse pictures, when the angle between the gravity sensing direction and the reference direction reaches the first angle threshold for the first time, the automatic screen rotation function is controlled to lock, The screen display direction is locked, so that the display direction of the screen is more suitable for the user's viewing needs.

When the automatic screen rotation function of the electronic device is locked, the user can also unlock the automatic screen rotation function by rotating the mobile phone. Specifically, it can be realized through several sub-steps as shown in FIG. 2F , which is shown according to an exemplary embodiment. A flow chart of a method for unlocking the automatic screen rotation function.

In step 205a, when the automatic screen rotation function of the electronic device is locked, the rotational angular acceleration of the electronic device is obtained.

The method for the electronic device to obtain its own angular acceleration can be implemented by those skilled in the art, so this embodiment will not describe it again, and does not specifically limit the method for the electronic device to obtain the angular acceleration of rotation. For example, the electronic device can obtain the angular velocity in real time through the gyroscope built in the electronic device, and determine the rotational angular acceleration according to the angular velocity obtained in real time.

In step 205b, when the rotational angular acceleration is greater than a predetermined acceleration threshold, a first state modification control is displayed.

Generally speaking, the predetermined acceleration threshold is set by a system developer, and this embodiment does not specifically limit the data of the predetermined acceleration threshold, which can be determined according to actual conditions. When the rotational angular acceleration of the electronic device is greater than the predetermined acceleration threshold, it is considered that the user using the electronic device may need to change the display direction of the screen, and the first state modification control is displayed at this time.

In step 205c, when the first state modification control is triggered, the automatic screen rotation function of the electronic device is unlocked.

When the automatic screen rotation function of the electronic device is locked, obtain the rotational angular acceleration of the electronic device in real time, and when the rotational angular acceleration is greater than a predetermined acceleration threshold, display the first state modification control so that the user can trigger the first state by rotating the electronic device The display of the control is modified, and the automatic screen rotation function of the electronic device can be unlocked by triggering the first state modification control.

Some users are accustomed to locking the automatic screen rotation function, and at this time, the display orientation of the screen of the electronic device is usually locked to the first orientation. When the user enters the picture application to browse pictures, there are pictures that can be displayed in different directions. At this time, in order to meet the needs of the user to display pictures in different directions when viewing pictures, the automatic screen rotation function is unlocked.

Specifically, after the gravity sensing direction is acquired, when the included angle between the gravity sensing direction and the screen display direction is smaller than the second angle threshold and the automatic screen rotation function of the electronic device is locked, the automatic screen rotation function of the electronic device is unlocked.

The second angle threshold is usually set by a system developer, and this embodiment does not specifically limit the specific data of the second angle threshold, which can be determined according to actual conditions. For example, the second angle threshold may be 30 degrees or 45 degrees.

For example, FIG. 2G is a schematic diagram of unlocking the automatic screen rotation function according to an exemplary embodiment. The first angle threshold is set to 60 degrees. As shown in FIG. The icon of the program is used to open the picture application program, and the last screen display direction of the electronic device before the picture application program is opened by the electronic device is the first direction 21 . As shown in Figure 2G(2), the user keeps the posture unchanged after opening the picture application and continues to browse pictures. At this time, the gravity sensing direction of the electronic device is 21 and the angle between it and the first direction is 0. With the automatic screen rotation function of the device, the user can control the display direction of the photo by rotating the electronic device.

By detecting that the included angle between the gravity sensing direction of the electronic device and the obtained screen display direction is less than the second angle threshold, the automatic screen rotation function of the electronic device is unlocked; when the screen display direction of the electronic device is usually locked and the user When browsing pictures in a non-sideways posture, the lock on the screen display direction is automatically unlocked, so that users who have turned off the automatic screen rotation function of the system can control the display direction of the photos by rotating the electronic device when viewing pictures.

Optionally, when the last screen display orientation of the electronic device before the picture application is started is not obtained, the automatic screen rotation function of the electronic device is controlled to be in an unlocked state.

When each photo is taken, the electronic device will record the bottom information of the photo according to the direction of gravity sensing, and display the bottom of the photo at the bottom of the screen when displaying the photo. When the user holds the electronic device to take pictures, the bottom of the electronic device record is inconsistent with the bottom corresponding to the user's need to browse the picture, no matter how the screen display direction changes, it is not convenient for the user to view. At this time, the user can provide the user with a control The control of photo rotation can be specifically implemented through several sub-steps as shown in FIG. 2H , which is a flow chart of a method for providing users with controls for controlling photo rotation according to an exemplary embodiment.

In step 207a, when the screen auto-rotation function of the electronic device is unlocked, the number of changes in the screen display direction is acquired during the continuous display of the same picture opened by the picture application program on the screen.

In step 207b, when the number of changes reaches the first number threshold, a picture rotation control related to the picture is displayed, and the picture is controlled to rotate according to the triggered picture rotation control.

In order to prevent the picture rotation control from blocking the content displayed on the screen, optionally, when the picture rotation control is continuously displayed on the display screen for a preset duration, the display of the picture rotation control is canceled.

The threshold of the first number can be set by the user or by the system developer. This embodiment does not specifically limit the specific value of the threshold of the first number, which can be determined according to the actual situation.

Fig. 2I is a schematic diagram of photo rotation according to an exemplary embodiment, and the threshold of the first number is 2 for example. As shown in Fig. 2I (1), it is a schematic diagram of initially displaying picture A, and the display direction of picture A at this time Does not meet the user's needs for viewing pictures, the user will rotate the electronic device to change the display direction of the screen to obtain the schematic diagram of the electronic device displaying picture A as shown in Figure 2I(2), and the schematic diagram of picture A shown in Figure 2I(2) The display direction still does not meet the user's needs for users to view pictures. The user can change the display direction of the screen and trigger the picture rotation control related to the picture by rotating the electronic device again. As shown in FIG. Control 25. When the clockwise rotating space 25 is triggered, the schematic diagram of the picture A displayed by the electronic device is shown in FIG. 2I(4).

After unlocking the automatic screen rotation function of the electronic device, during the continuous display of the same picture opened by the picture application program on the screen, the number of changes in the screen display direction is obtained, and when the number of changes reaches a predetermined threshold, the picture is displayed. Related picture rotation controls enable users to rotate pictures.

It should be noted that the unlocking and locking of the screen auto-rotation function in this disclosure are all modifications to the setting of the screen auto-rotation function of the electronic device system.

Optionally, when the picture application exits from running in the foreground, the on state of the automatic screen rotation function of the electronic device is restored to the state before the picture application runs in the foreground.
