Abstract
A method for capturing display data on a screen together with display data not currently visible is applied to an electronic device. The method displays a user interface of an application on a touch screen of the electronic device, the user interface being divided into a sliding area and N number of non-sliding areas, when a preset user operation is applied to the electronic device. The method sets a starting position and an ending position in the sliding area. Content between the set starting and ending positions is read, and a screenshot corresponding to the read content is generated.
Claims20
A screenshot capturing method, applied to an electronic device, the method comprising:
- displaying a user interface of an application on a touch screen of the electronic device;
- dividing the user interface into a sliding area and N number of non-sliding areas when an operation that is applied to the electronic device is received, wherein N is an integer greater than or equal to zero;
- setting a starting position and an ending position in the sliding area;
- reading the content between the starting position and the ending position, and generating a first screenshot according to the content.
An electronic device comprising:
- a storage device;
- at least one processor;
- and
- the storage device storing one or more programs, which when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:
- display a user interface of an application on a touch screen of the electronic device;
- divide, when a preset operation that is applied to the electronic device is received, the user interface into a sliding area and N number of non-sliding areas, wherein N is an integer greater than or equal to zero;
- set a starting position and an ending position in the sliding area;
- and
- read the content between the starting position and the ending position, and generate a first screenshot according to the content.
A non-transitory storage medium having instructions stored thereon, when the instructions are executed by a processor of an electronic device, the processor is configured to perform a screenshot capturing method, wherein the method comprises:
- displaying a user interface of an application on a touch screen of the electronic device;
- dividing the user interface into a sliding area and N number of non-sliding areas when an operation that is applied to the electronic device is received, wherein N is an integer greater than or equal to zero;
- setting a starting position and an ending position in the sliding area;
- reading the content between the starting position and the ending position, and generating a first screenshot according to the content.
