Method and terminal for displaying a plurality of content cards

A terminal for displaying a plurality of content cards, the terminal comprising:

• a memory configured to store a computer program;
• and
• a processor coupled to the memory, wherein when executed by the processor, the computer program causes the processor to be configured to:
• detect a start location and a sliding direction of finger sliding associated with the content cards, wherein the content cards comprise a current content card and one or more stacked content cards, wherein display modes of the content cards comprise a stacking mode and a browsing mode, wherein content of the current content card and an edge of the one or more stacked content cards are displayed in the stacking mode, wherein the content of the current content card is displayed in full screen in the browsing mode, and wherein a display area of the current content card is divided into an edge area and a content display area;
• determine whether to switch between the stacking mode and the browsing mode or to continuously display content of adjacent content cards in the browsing mode based on whether a current display mode of the current content card is the stacking mode or the browsing mode, a location relationship between the start location and the content display area of the current content card, the sliding direction, and whether an upper part or a lower part of the current content card is within a predetermined area, wherein the adjacent content cards comprise the current content card and a content card of the one or more stacked content cards that is adjacent to the current content card;
• and
• either switch between the stacking mode and the browsing mode or continuously display content of the adjacent content cards in the browsing mode based on the determination.

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium comprising an instruction for displaying a plurality of content cards on a computer, wherein when running the instruction on the computer, the computer is enabled to perform:

• detect a start location and a sliding direction of finger sliding associated with the content cards, wherein the content cards comprise a current content card and one or more stacked content cards, wherein display modes of the content cards comprise a stacking mode and a browsing mode, wherein content of the current content card and an edge of the one or more stacked content cards are displayed in the stacking mode, wherein the content of the current content card is displayed in full screen in the browsing mode, and wherein a display area of the current content card is divided into an edge area and a content display area;
• determine whether to switch between the stacking mode and the browsing mode or to continuously display content of adjacent content cards in the browsing mode based on whether a current display mode of the current content card is the stacking mode or the browsing mode, a location relationship between the start location and the content display area of the current content card, the sliding direction, and whether an upper part or a lower part of the current content card is within a predetermined area, wherein the adjacent content cards comprise the current content card and a content card of the one or more stacked content cards that is adjacent to the current content card;
• and
• either switch between the stacking mode and the browsing mode or continuously display content of the adjacent content cards in the browsing mode based on the determination.

A non-transitory computer program product comprising computer-executable instructions for displaying a plurality of content cards on a terminal that, when executed by a processor, cause the terminal to:

• detect a start location and a sliding direction of finger sliding, wherein the content cards comprise a current content card and one or more stacked content cards, wherein display modes of the content cards comprise a stacking mode and a browsing mode, wherein content of the current content card and an edge of the one or more stacked content cards are displayed in the stacking mode, wherein the content of the current content card is displayed in full screen in the browsing mode, and wherein a display area of the current content card is divided into an edge area and a content display area;
• determine whether to switch between the stacking mode and the browsing mode or to continuously display content of adjacent content cards in the browsing mode based on whether a current display mode of the current content card is the stacking mode or the browsing mode, a location relationship between the start location and the content display area of the current content card, the sliding direction, and whether an upper part or a lower part of the current content card is within a predetermined area, wherein the adjacent content cards comprise the current content card and a content card of the one or more stacked content cards that is adjacent to the current content card;
• and
• either switch between the stacking mode and the browsing mode or continuously display content of the adjacent content cards in the browsing mode based on the determination.
