Abstract

The present invention relates to the field of display control processing and provides a display method and a display device. The display method includes: obtaining an object to be displayed; parsing the object to obtain corresponding information of the object; obtaining a media resource corresponding to the corresponding information based on the corresponding information; and displaying the object and presenting the media resource corresponding to the corresponding information. With the present invention, the display effect of the object can be enriched and the user'"'"'s reading experience can be enhanced.

Claims

1. A display method implemented in an electronic apparatus, comprising:

obtaining, by a processor of the electronic apparatus, an e-book document to be displayed;

obtaining, by the processor, information about the document including at least one of a title, content, publication date, or accumulated read time of the document;

obtaining, by the processor based on the information, a media resource which is suitable for indicating at the obtained information; and

displaying, by the processor, the document and presenting the media resource as background;

wherein for each e-book document, a plurality of different media resources are preset to be suitable for indicating the title, content, publication date, and accumulated read time of the document respectively;

wherein the media resource comprises an image file, and

displaying the document and presenting the media resource as background comprises;

obtaining a content of the document;

using the image file as a background image;

obtaining size information that indicates the size of the background image while being displayed in a display area;

determining a number of background images to be arranged in the display area based on the size information;

determining a layout of the content on the number of background images; and

displaying the number of background images in the display area, arranging and displaying the content on the number of background images based on the layout.

2. The display method of claim 1, wherein

the information further comprises pre-recorded additional information of the document.

3. The display method of claim 2, further comprising:

after obtaining the media resource;

obtaining, by the processor, identification information of the media resource; and

storing, by the processor, the identification information in the additional information of the document.

4. The display method of claim 1, wherein

the media resource comprises at least one of an image file, a video file, an audio file and a smell file.

5. The display method of claim 1, wherein

obtaining the media resource based on the information comprises:

determining the media resource based on a preset correspondence between the information and the media resource.

6. The display method of claim 1, wherein

displaying the object and presenting the media resource as background comprises:

presenting the media resource as background while displaying the document; and

/or

displaying the document, and presenting the media resource as background when a predetermined condition is satisfied.

7. The display method of claim 6, wherein

the predetermined condition being satisfied comprises a predetermined operation instruction being received.

8. The display method of claim 1, wherein the electronic apparatus comprises an e-book reader.

9. An electronic apparatus comprising:

a processor, and

a storage device that stores an e-book document and information about the document;

wherein the processor is configured to;

obtain the document from the storage device to be displayed;

obtain, from the storage device, the information about the document including at least one of a title, content, publication date, or an accumulated read time of the document;

obtain, based on the information, a media resource which is suitable for indicating the obtained information; and

display the document and present the media resource as background;

wherein for each e-book document, a plurality of different media resources are preset to be suitable for indicating the title, content, publication data and accumulated read time of the document respectively;

wherein the media resource comprises an image file; and

the processor

obtains a content of the document,

uses the image file as a background image,

obtains size information that indicates a size of the background image while being displayed in a display area;

determines a number of background images to be arranged in the display area based on the size information;

determines a layout of the content on the number of background images; and

displays the number of background images in the display area, arranges and displays the content on the number of background images based on the composition.

10. The electronic apparatus of claim 9, wherein

the processor parses a content of the document to obtain content information of the document and/or pre-recorded additional information of the document.

11. The electronic apparatus of claim 10, wherein

the processor further obtains identification information of the media resource and stores the identification information in the additional information of the document.

12. The electronic apparatus of claim 9, wherein

the storage device further stores the media resource which comprises at least one of an image file, a video file, an audio file and a smell file.

13. The electronic apparatus of claim 9, wherein

the processor determines the media resource based on a preset correspondence between the information and the media resource.

14. The electronic apparatus of claim 9, wherein
