## Abstract

A method, apparatus, electronic device, and storage medium for displaying information. The method for displaying information includes: receiving a first operation on a content block in a document; in response to the first operation, displaying a first function identifier in an associated area of the content block, the first function identifier comprising a first sub-identifier and a second sub-identifier, the first sub-identifier used to represent a content type of the content block, and the second sub-identifier used to represent an operation type of the content block.

## Claims

### Claim at position 1

1-12. (canceled)

### Claim 13

A method of displaying information, comprising:
receiving a first operation on a content block in a document; and
in response to the first operation, displaying a first function identifier in an associated area of the content block, the first function identifier comprising a first sub-identifier and a second sub-identifier, the first sub-identifier used to represent a content type of the content block, and the second sub-identifier used to represent an operation type of the content block.

### Claim 14 (depends on 13)

The method of displaying information of claim 13, further comprising:
in response to a second operation by a user on the first sub-identifier, displaying a function list of the content block; and/or,
in response a third operation by a user on the second sub-identifier, moving the content block.

### Claim 15 (depends on 13)

The method of displaying information of claim 13, further comprising:
if a type of the content block to which the first operation points is not determined, displaying a second function identifier.

### Claim 16 (depends on 13)

The method of displaying information of claim 13, further comprising:
in response to a fourth operation by a user on a blank text line of the document, displaying a third function identifier, wherein the third function identifier is used to create the content block.

### Claim 17 (depends on 16)

The method of displaying information of claim 16, further comprising:
in response to the third function identifier being selected, displaying a control panel for displaying at least one content block identifier; wherein the content block identifier and the first sub-identifier of a same content block have a correspondence.

### Claim 18 (depends on 13)

The method of displaying information of claim 13, wherein,
if the content type of the content block is a non-text type, the first sub-identifier is identical to a content block identifier of the content block; and/or,
if the content type of the content block is a text type, the first sub-identifier of the content block is a text identifier.

### Claim 19 (depends on 13)

The method of displaying information of claim 13, wherein if the content block is a text type comprising a title, the method further comprises:
determining the first sub-identifier based on a title level of the title.

### Claim 20 (depends on 13)

The method of displaying information of claim 13, wherein if the content block is a text type, the method further comprises:
in response to receiving an operation setting a title of the content block, setting the content block to a title format; and
determining a title level of the title, and determining the first sub-identifier based on the title level of the title.

### Claim 21 (depends on 13)

The method of displaying information of claim 13, wherein,
the first operation comprises a user hovering a cursor within a predetermined area corresponding to the content block.

### Claim 22 (depends on 13)

The method of displaying information of claim 13, wherein the content type of the content block comprises at least one of the following:
a text type, an image type, a chart type, or a file type.

### Claim 23

An electronic device, comprising:
at least one memory and at least one processor;
wherein the memory is used to store program code, and the processor is used to call the program code stored in the memory to cause the electronic device to perform acts comprising:
receiving a first operation on a content block in a document; and
in response to the first operation, displaying a first function identifier in an associated area of the content block, the first function identifier comprising a first sub-identifier and a second sub-identifier, the first sub-identifier used to represent a content type of the content block, and the second sub-identifier used to represent an operation type of the content block.

### Claim 24 (depends on 23)

The device of claim 23, the acts further comprising:
in response to a second operation by a user on the first sub-identifier, displaying a function list of the content block; and/or,
in response a third operation by a user on the second sub-identifier, moving the content block.

### Claim 25 (depends on 23)

The device of claim 23, the acts further comprising:
if a type of the content block to which the first operation points is not determined, displaying a second function identifier.

### Claim 26 (depends on 23)

The device of claim 23, the acts further comprising:
in response to a fourth operation by a user on a blank text line of the document, displaying a third function identifier, wherein the third function identifier is used to create the content block.

### Claim 27 (depends on 26)

The device of claim 26, the acts further comprising:
in response to the third function identifier being selected, displaying a control panel for displaying at least one content block identifier; wherein the content block identifier and the first sub-identifier of a same content block have a correspondence.

### Claim 28 (depends on 23)

The device of claim 23, wherein,
if the content type of the content block is a non-text type, the first sub-identifier is identical to a content block identifier of the content block; and/or,
if the content type of the content block is a text type, the first sub-identifier of the content block is a text identifier.

### Claim 29 (depends on 23)

The device of claim 23, wherein if the content block is a text type comprising a title, the acts further comprises:
determining the first sub-identifier based on a title level of the title.

### Claim 30 (depends on 23)

The device of claim 23, wherein if the content block is a text type, the acts further comprises:
in response to receiving an operation setting a title of the content block, setting the content block to a title format; and
