10. A display method of an electronic device, wherein:
-
the electronic device comprises a first body, a second body, a housing, a first touch display unit being arranged on the first body and a second touch display unit being arranged on the second body; the first touch display unit has a display state and a non-display state; and in a case that the first touch display unit is in the display state, the electronic device has a first working mode and a second working mode, the display method comprising; in a case that the first touch display unit is in the non-display state; detecting a first type of trigger event; generating a first information associated with the first type of trigger event in the case that the first type of trigger event is detected; and controlling the second touch display unit to display the first information; and in a case that the first touch display unit is in the display state; detecting a working mode of the electronic device based on a first angle between the electronic device and a horizontal plane, wherein; in a case that the first angle is within a first preset range, the electronic device is in the first working mode, and in a case that the first angle is within a second preset range that does not overlap the first preset range, the electronic device is in the second working mode; in response to determining the electronic device is in the first working mode, (i) displaying a first display content on the first touch display unit of the first body, (ii) displaying a second display content corresponding to at least one application running in a background in the electronic device on the second touch display unit of the second body dragging, via a touch operation, an icon corresponding to the at least one application from the first touch display unit in a direction of the second touch display unit, and (iii) cancelling display contents of the second touch display unit corresponding to the at least one application by dragging, via the touch operation, the icon from the second touch display unit in a direction of the first touch display unit, wherein the first display content corresponds to an application running in a foreground in the electronic device, and the second display content comprises a message corresponding to at least one application running in the background in the electronic device; and controlling the second touch display unit to display a third display content in response to determining that the working mode of the electronic device is switched from the first working mode to the second working mode, wherein the third display content corresponds to the first display content and is different from the first display content. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
