In this embodiment, the model is saved and closed after being partially assembled. When the GUI is opened again on an electronic device with a display next time, the electronic device will parse the XML building file, parse out the serial numbers and numbers of the building blocks in the XML building file, and display the building block list on the right side of the GUI. form display. The building block list on the right displays information of 9 building blocks at a time. You can slide down the building block list to display the following building blocks. In addition, when the GUI is opened again, the electronic device will sequentially parse the <StepModel>...</StepModel> elements in the XML construction file one by one, and render the newly constructed shape. Specifically: in the construction area 210, the electronic device queries the building block library according to the sub-elements of <StepModel>…</StepModel> and the number of the building block piece, reads the three-dimensional model of the building block library, and reads the three-dimensional model of the building block library according to the sub-elements of <StepModel>…</StepModel>. The three-dimensional position information, quaternion value, rotation information, size information and other information recorded by the sub-elements of > render all the building blocks and form the latest development.

In this embodiment, the building blocks dragged into the building area 210 are moved, rotated, and the viewing angle is switched, so as to be used for building shapes. When building blocks in the building area 210, the tool bar 230 of the GUI is used to build the interface. In the tool bar 230, there are the following function icons: New 231, Save 232, Cancel 233, Display 234, Hide 235, Color replacement 236, mirror image 237, six perspective switching 238. In other optional implementation manners of this embodiment, at least one of the following icons is further included: selected, selected all, search model, and the like. The function of each function icon is described below. Among them, New 231 is used to create a new project, each shape corresponds to a shape, and the project includes the production of construction drawings. Undo 233: In response to detecting that the undo icon is clicked, execute the undo instruction, delete the action just now, and delete the information written in the build document corresponding to the action just now. Select all icon: In response to detecting that the select all icon is clicked, the select all command is executed, and all building blocks in the current shape in the construction area 210 are in a selected state. After the shape is selected, the viewing angle of the shape can be changed and the shape can be moved. Search model icon: Corresponding to detecting that the search model icon is clicked, read the filter conditions input by the user, traverse the building file according to the above filter conditions, filter out the target building blocks that meet the conditions, and highlight the above target building blocks. Make it easier for users to identify and locate. When screening, it is supported to distinguish between the same parts, the same color parts, and the same color parts of the same type, which is convenient for users to operate in batches according to specific needs. Hide icon 235: Select at least one target building block through the search model or positioning function or mouse click, and the target building block in the modeling in the construction area will be highlighted. Click the hide icon, and the target building block will be hidden and not displayed. ; It is convenient for the user to modify the building blocks blocked by the hidden building blocks.

Color replacement icon 236: Selected by searching for a model or positioning function or clicking with a mouse, at least one target building block will be selected, and a replacement color will be selected for the target building block, and the target building block in the corresponding shape will change color. It is convenient to adjust the color of the product, or to design several shapes of the same shape but different color matching. Mirror icon 237: The shapes of many products are symmetrical, either up and down, left and right, or front and rear. You only need to make the related shapes symmetrical to get a symmetrical shape, that is, select the original shape to be mirrored in any one of the three axes of XYZ, of course, you can also mirror a shape multiple times, such as first up and down Mirror left and right. For example, the robot is left-right symmetrical. When the right hand and right arm are built, you only need to perform the mirror image operation. Select the left and right mirror image, that is, the right hand and right arm are mirrored left and right, and the left hand and left arm are obtained. The mirror operation can greatly save building time and improve building efficiency. Six viewing angle switching icon 238: In order to ensure correct construction and quickly adjust the viewing angle of the building blocks, in the GUI of the GUI, for the building blocks dragged from the left to the construction area, switch the viewing angle first, and then go up from the six viewing angles. , down, front, back, left and right, select one of the six viewing angles to switch, and the electronic device with the display receives the viewing angle switching instruction, and rotates the building blocks in the construction area accordingly. Similarly, in order to find a good viewing angle for building, the user selects the shape of the construction area by selecting the all icon, and then switches any one of the six viewing angles. If you are still not satisfied with the viewing angles of the building blocks and shapes after the viewing angle is switched, you can continue to rotate the building blocks and/or sub-shapes to adjust the viewing angle. It is easy to find the best viewing angle for building. Save icon 232: In response to detecting that the save icon is clicked, a save instruction is executed, and the building information of the current shape of the building is saved to the building file.

Continuing to refer to the GUI of FIG. 2 , there is a grouping icon 221 at the bottom of the right side. After receiving the user's click of the grouping button 221, the electronic device jumps the interface to the GUI for grouping users.

Step 102, on the graphical user grouping interface, display the serial numbers and numbers of the building blocks in the construction document in the form of a list, support the user to create groups, support continuous nesting of groups within the group, and support adding the building blocks in the above list to each group. Inside, save each grouping information to the above construction document.

Continue to refer to FIG. 3 , which is a simple schematic diagram of a graphical user grouping interface in an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 3 , on the GUI of the GUI is a toolbar 300 , and the toolbar 300 includes the following icons: create 301 , delete 302 , save 303 , undo 304 , zoom in 305 , and zoom out 306 . On the left side of the graphical user grouping interface is a grouping tree 310 . By clicking the Create 301 icon on the toolbar, a folder icon is displayed on the interface, indicating the newly created group. The name of the group is written on the right side of the icon. Click or double-click the folder graphic to open the group. The group supports continuous embedding. Sets to create groups, supports an unlimited number of group nesting. These groups are displayed in a tree structure, and these groups are one node at a time. Among them, a tree is a branching structure. As shown in Figure 3, a 4-level grouping is created here. Among them, the outermost layer and the topmost layer are the robot grouping as the root node. 1 left arm, 2 right arm, 3 torso, 4 crawler are child nodes of the robot, you can continue to create subgroups under these groups. For example, 1.1 left hand and 1.2 left arm grouping are nested under the 1 left arm; the third finger, the second finger, and the first finger grouping are nested under the 1.1 left hand grouping. Delete icon 302, select a certain group, click delete icon 302, prompt whether to delete the group, click OK, then delete the information related to the group. 303 is the save icon. Click the save icon 303, and the grouping information will be saved in the construction document. 304 is the undo icon. Clicking the undo icon 304 will cancel the new operation, the operation of dragging the building block, or the operation of deleting the group. Only the most recent operation can be undone at a time.

In this embodiment, lower-level groups are indented compared to higher-level groups, and some groups are deeply nested. Therefore, in other optional implementations of this embodiment, the left-hand group is indented. Grouping trees are not indented. Of course, in other embodiments, users are supported to freely switch between the above two modes.

In this embodiment, on the right side of the GUI is a list 320 . This list is a list of building blocks that are read from the building documentation and stored in order when building a shape in the GUI. The list 320 uses a first-in, first-out data structure to store building block information, and the above-mentioned first-in, first-out data structure includes but is not limited to: stack, queue, and list. When the user swipes down to refresh the list, following the principle of first-in, first-out, the n building blocks above the list are not displayed, and the n building blocks below the building block list are loaded.

The specific steps for adding building blocks are as follows: the list 320 on the right only displays the information of 15 building blocks at a time. First click on the selected building block, and then drag the selected building block to the corresponding left group. Once a building block is dragged under a group, the building block is grayed out in the list 320 and no longer supports dragging. At the code implementation level, in the xml format build file, set a label for whether each building block has been grouped. If the building block has been grouped, a gray shadow is rendered for the building block, and the building block is not supported. drag. As an example, as shown in FIG. 3 , drag the building block whose serial number 1 is 072502 and the serial number 2 is 010110 in the list 320 on the right side to the bottom of the first finger group. Drag the building block numbered 010110 in the list 320 on the right to the second finger group. Drag the building block numbered 010110 in the list 320 on the right to the third finger group. Also, click on the list 320 behind the piece number

icon, the number of the piece is highlighted in the grouping tree on the left. It is convenient for users to quickly locate the building block.

In this embodiment, the number of building blocks under each group is not limited. For example, if 3 short pins need to be inserted into a 7-hole beam, then 4 building blocks are required for this build step.

In this embodiment, the grouping information is recorded in XML, and the above-mentioned grouping information includes but is not limited to: whether it is a group, whether it is the outermost layer, the location of the parent class, the group name, and the location of the group. At the same time, record the information of the building blocks under the group, and refer to the XML construction document field below. All groupings are between <AllGroupModel>…</AllGroupModel> elements. There is no distinction between grouping and building blocks, and the <StepModel>…</StepModel> elements are used to record related information.
