Abstract

Embodiments of the present application disclose a file shared browsing method and system. The method comprises: a host device receiving a browsing mode switching operation of a user, and enabling or disabling a slave mode of the system according to the operation, wherein: global control permission on a target file browsing progress for a slave device is enabled in a state in which the slave mode of the system is ON; global control permission on the target file browsing progress for a slave device is disabled in a state in which the slave mode of the system is OFF. Compared to the prior art, the user of the slave device in the embodiments of the present application can, in addition to passively follow the browse, also temporarily become dominant for browsing according to actual needs. Thus, the solution of the present application can be flexibly adapted to application of different scenes, such as a solo speech and multi-person discussion and the like.

enabling the global control permission on the target file browsing progress for a slave device is specifically implemented by;

enabling the global control permission on the target file browsing progress for a slave device according to a user-specified identifier of the corresponding slave device.

4. The method according to claim 2, wherein it also comprises:

disabling the global control permission on the target file browsing progress for the host device in a state in which the slave mode of the system is ON;

enabling the global control permission on the target file browsing progress for the host device in a state in which the slave mode of the system is OFF.

5. The method according to claim 2, wherein it also comprises:

in a state in which the slave mode of the system is ON, disabling, according to identifiers of slave devices provided by the user, the control permission for some slave devices among a plurality of slave devices that have acquired the control permission.

6. The method according to claim 3, wherein it also comprises:

in a state in which the slave mode of the system is ON, disabling, according to identifiers of slave devices provided by the user, the control permission for some slave devices among a plurality of slave devices that have acquired the control permission.

7. The method according to claim 3, wherein it also comprises:

disabling the global control permission on the target file browsing progress for the host device in a state in which the slave mode of the system is ON;

enabling the global control permission on the target file browsing progress for the host device in a state in which the slave mode of the system is OFF.

8. The method according to claim 1, wherein it also comprises:

in a state in which the slave mode of the system is ON, disabling, according to identifiers of slave devices provided by the user, the control permission for some slave devices among a plurality of slave devices that have acquired the control permission.

9. The method according to claim 1, wherein it also comprises:

disabling the global control permission on the target file browsing progress for the host device in a state in which the slave mode of the system is ON;

enabling the global control permission on the target file browsing progress for the host device in a state in which the slave mode of the system is OFF.

10. A storage medium, wherein it is used to store an application program, the application program being used for carrying out the file shared browsing method according to any one of claims 1 to 9 when executed.

11. An application program, wherein it is used for carrying out, the file shared browsing method according to any one of claims 1 to 9 when executed.

12. A file shared browsing system, wherein it comprises one host device and at least one slave device that browse one and the same target file;

the host device comprises a first operation receiving module, a first mode enabling control module and a first mode disabling control module,

the first operation receiving module is used for triggering a corresponding control module according to a first browsing mode switching operation of a user, the first browsing mode switching operation including a first enabling operation and a first disabling operation;

the first mode enabling control module is used for enabling a slave mode of the system according to the first enabling operation of the user, wherein, global control permission on a target file browsing progress for a slave device is enabled in a state in which the slave mode of the system is ON;

the first mode disabling control module is used for disabling the slave mode of the system according to the first disabling operation of the user, wherein, the global control permission on the target file browsing progress for a slave device is disabled in a state in which the slave mode of the system is OFF; and

the at least one salve device comprise a second operation receiving module, a second mode enabling control module, and a second mode disabling control module;
