Abstract
A display terminal has a rectangle display screen with a long side and a short side and has two states, a first state in which only the short side is parallel to a horizontal plane and a second state in which only the long side is parallel to the horizontal plane. A display method includes generating a first display command when the terminal is detected to be in the first state and generating a second display command when the terminal is detected to be in the second state.
Claims6
A display method used for a terminal having a rectangle display screen, the rectangle display screen having a long side and a short side;
- the terminal having two states, a first state being a state in which only the short side is parallel to a horizontal plane and a second state being a state in which only the long side is parallel to the horizontal plane;
- the terminal having a storage device which stores a plurality of objects with data information;
- wherein the method comprises:
- generating a first display command when the terminal is detected to be in the first state, and in accordance with the first display command, displaying by the display screen a first part of the data information of a plurality of objects and the first part of the data information includes index information of the plurality of objects;
- generating a second display command when the terminal is detected to be in the second state, and in accordance with the second display command, only displaying by the display screen all information of a second part of the data information of a selected one object of the plurality of objects;
- wherein a first ratio of the first part with respect to the data information of the selected one object is smaller than a second ratio of the second part with respect to the data information of the selected one object;
- and
- wherein displaying by the display screen the first part of the data information of the plurality of objects comprises displaying the first part of the data information of one of the objects on a specific position of the display screen;
- and
- wherein displaying by the display screen the second part of the data information of the selected one object of the plurality of objects comprises displaying by the display screen the second part of the data information of the object corresponding to the first part displayed on the specific position,
- wherein when the terminal is in the second state, and in accordance with the second display command, only displaying by the display screen all information of the second part of the data information of the selected one object of the plurality of objects, the method further comprising:
- acquiring a touch point position or a touch point motion locus on a touch device;
- and
- displaying a second part of the data information of another one of the objects when said touch point position or touch point motion locus satisfies a preset condition.
