Abstract
Provided is a method of visually displaying a countdown time on a graphical user interface. A countdown time is set, the width and opacity of an area that changes as the set time is sequentially counted down are determined, and the area that changes based on the determined width and opacity is output on the graphical user interface.
Claims15
An operation method of a first terminal, the operation method comprising:
- receiving, from a server, a request for establishing a communication connection between the first terminal and a second terminal;
- receiving, from the server, a countdown time that is counted down as a video call proceeds;
- receiving, from the server, information on a blocking area that changes as the countdown time sequentially elapses;
- and
- outputting the blocking area on a graphical user interface of the first terminal according to the received information.
2 more elements
A first terminal supporting a video call, the first terminal comprising:
- a communication unit configured to:
- receive, from a server, a request for establishing a communication connection between the first terminal and the second terminal;
- receive, from the server, a countdown time as the video call proceeds;
- receive, from the server, information on a blocking area that changes as the countdown time sequentially elapses, and
- a processor configured to output the blocking area on a graphical user interface of the first terminal according to the received information.
2 more elements
A device for controlling a graphical user interface of a terminal, the device comprising:
- a memory storing at least one program;
- and
- at least one processor for executing the at least one program to relay a video call,
- wherein the at least one processor is configured to
- set a countdown time as a video call between a first terminal and a second terminal proceeds, set a blocking area that changes as the preset time is sequentially counted down, and communicate with the first terminal and the second terminal so that the blocking area is output on a graphical user interface of each of the first terminal and the second terminal.
