Abstract

Provided is an interactive interface display control method, instant communication tool and computer storage medium. The interactive interface displayed control method, comprising the following steps: acquiring a contact list and a message of a friend in a contact list; generating an image block corresponding to the friend in the contact list; and displaying the message of the friend in the image block. The interactive interface display control method, the instant communication tool, and computer storage medium are realized by generating a corresponding image block for each friend in the contact list, and then displaying the message of the friend in the image block, thereby a user can view the message of the friend directly from the image block in the interface, which simplifies and facilities the operation.

Claims

1. An interactive interface display control method, comprising following steps:

acquiring a contact list and a message of a friend in the contact list;

generating an image block corresponding to the friend in the contact list; and

displaying the message of the friend in the image block.

2. The interactive interface display control method according to claim 1, wherein, the step of generating an image block corresponding to the friend in the contact list comprises:

extracting friend information corresponding to the friend from the contact list;

judging whether the friend in the contact list has a corresponding message, if yes, then acquiring a message type of the message;

extracting a message display pattern corresponding to the message type and generating an image block according to the message display pattern;

adding the message of the friend in the image block.

3. The interactive interface display control method according to claim 2, wherein, the step of generating an image block corresponding to the friend in the contact list comprises:

if it is judged that the friend in the contact list has no corresponding message, then generating an image block corresponding to the friend information and display the friend information in the image block.

4. The interactive interface display control method according to claim 2, wherein, the step of displaying the message of the friend in the image block comprises:

acquiring a logo corresponding to the message type, and setting the logo in the image block of the friend;

displaying the message in the image block.

5. The interactive interface display control method according to claim 4, wherein, the message of the friend comprises a dynamic message in a virtual network community and/or a session message;

said displaying the message in the image block is specified as follows;

circularly displaying multiple messages of the friend in chronological sequence.

6. The interactive interface display control method according to claim 1, wherein, following the step of displaying the message of the friend, the display control method further comprises following steps:

arranging image blocks in a screen;

judging whether the image blocks arranged go beyond a display range of the screen, if yes, extendedly arranging the image blocks beyond the display range;

displaying extendedly arranged image blocks in the display range of the screen according to a user'"'"'s view operation.

7. The interactive interface display control method according to claim 6, wherein, the step of extendedly arranging the image blocks beyond the display range comprises:

defining a height or width of the screen as a height or width for arranging the image blocks, and extendedly arranging the image blocks beyond the display range along a direction of the height or width.

8. An instant communication tool, comprising:

a message acquiring module, configured to acquire a contact list and a message of a friend in the contact list;

an image block processing module, configured to generate an image block corresponding to the friend in the contact list;

a display module, configured to display the message of the friend in the image block.

9. The instant communication tool according to claim 8, wherein, the image block processing module comprises:
