Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention provide a component display processing method and apparatus. The method includes: receiving indication information indicating that a component is in a waiting-to-be-processed state; and according to the indication information, reducing a displayed region of a container that is displayed on a display screen, so that t a hidden region of the container is displayed on the display screen.

Claims

1. A method for processing a component in a display of an electronic device, comprising:

receiving indication information when a user operates the component, the component being displayed in a displayed region of a container, the displayed region being displayed on the display;

in response to the indication information, both triggering a state of the component that allows the component to be moved and zooming out the entire displayed region of the container so that a hidden region of the container is displayed on the display;

receiving a movement instruction; and

moving, according to the movement instruction, the component from the displayed region to the hidden region,

wherein moving the component from the displayed region to the hidden region comprises;

after the component is moved from the displayed region to a junction between the displayed region and the hidden region, switching, in a shifting manner or a reversing manner, from the displayed region to the hidden region so that the hidden region is completely displayed on the display.

2. The component display processing method according to claim 1, wherein the hidden region of the container is displayed in an unoccupied region of the display when the entire displayed region is reduced.

3. The component display processing method according to claim 1, further comprising:

according to the indication information, placing the component in the hidden region of the container.

4. A user equipment, comprising:

a display screen; and

one or more processors coupled to a storage medium and configured to;

receive indication information when a user operates a component, the component being displayed in a displayed region of a container, the displayed region being displayed on the display screen;

in response to the indication information, both trigger a state of the component that allows the component to be moved and zooming out the entire displayed region of the container so that a hidden region of the container is displayed on the display screen;

receive a movement instruction; and

move, according to the movement instruction, the component from the displayed region to the hidden region,

wherein after the component is moved from the displayed region to a junction between the displayed region and the hidden region, switch, in a shifting manner or a reversing manner, from the displayed region to the hidden region so that the hidden region is completely displayed on the display screen.

5. The user equipment according to claim 4, wherein the hidden region of the container is displayed in an unoccupied region of the display screen when the entire displayed region is reduced.

6. The user equipment according to claim 4, wherein the one or more processors are further configured to place the component in the hidden region of the container according to the indication information.

7. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium with an executable program stored thereon, wherein the program instructs one or more processors to perform the following method comprising:

receiving indication information when a user operates a component, the component being displayed in a displayed region of a container, the displayed region being displayed on the display screen;

in response to the indication information, both triggering a state of the component that allows the component to be moved and zooming out the entire displayed region of the container so that a hidden region of the container is displayed on the display screen;

receiving a movement instruction; and

moving, according to the movement instruction, the component from the displayed region to the hidden region,

wherein moving the component from the displayed region to the hidden region comprises;

after the component is moved from the displayed region to a junction between the displayed region and the hidden region, switching, in a shifting manner or a reversing manner, from the displayed region to the hidden region so that the hidden region is completely displayed on the display screen.

8. The computer-readable storage medium according to claim 7, wherein the hidden region of the container is displayed in an unoccupied region of the display screen when the entire displayed region is reduced.

9. The computer-readable storage medium according to claim 7, wherein the program instructs the one or more processors to place the component in the hidden region of the container according to the indication information.
