Abstract

A data transmission method includes: displaying a target message in a session interface; in response to a trigger operation on the target message, outputting a resource transmission interface including an object display region and an icon display region; and the object display region including an object identifier of at least one transmission object, and the icon display region including a message icon corresponding to the target message; moving the message icon from the icon display region to the object display region according to a moving operation on the message icon; and transmitting, in response to the message icon being moved to the object display region, the data resource to a target transmission object of the at least one transmission object in the object display region, the target transmission object being determined according to an ending position of a movement track of the message icon corresponding to the moving operation.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A data transmission method, performed by a terminal, the method comprising:
displaying a target message in a session interface, the target message comprising a data resource;
outputting a resource transmission interface in response to a trigger operation on the target message, the resource transmission interface comprising an object display region and an icon display region; and the object display region comprising an object identifier of at least one transmission object, and the icon display region comprising a message icon corresponding to the target message, the transmission object being an object capable of receiving the data resource corresponding to the target message;
moving the message icon from the icon display region to the object display region according to a moving operation on the message icon, wherein the moving operation includes an operation of continuously pressing and dragging the message icon;
in response to the message icon being moved to the object display region, playing a transmission indication animation in the object display region according to a pressing duration for which the message icon is pressed in the object display region, the transmission indication animation indicating a remaining duration to wait until a transmission of the data resource corresponding to the target message; and
transmitting, after finishing playing the transmission indication animation, the data resource corresponding to the target message to a target transmission object of the at least one transmission object in the object display region, the target transmission object being determined according to a position of an end point of a movement track of the message icon corresponding to the moving operation.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the resource transmission interface is a mask layer interface; and
an icon style of the message icon is determined according to a message parameter of the target message, and the message parameter comprises at least: a message type of the target message, wherein
the message type of the target message is: a file type, a text type, a multimedia data type, or a link type; and the data resource corresponding to the target message is: a file, a text content, multimedia data, or a link.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one transmission object comprises at least one of: an associated terminal associated with a target terminal, or at least one other session where a target user is present; and the object identifier of the at least one transmission object comprises at least one of: a terminal identifier of the associated terminal, or a session identifier of the at least one other session, wherein
the target terminal refers to a terminal for displaying the session interface, and the associated terminal refers to a terminal logging in to a same social account of the target user as the target terminal; and the target user refers to a user who logs in to the social account in the target terminal.

4. The method according to claim 3 , wherein the object display region comprises at least one of the following sub-regions: a first sub-region and a second sub-region; and the first sub-region is configured to display the terminal identifier of the associated terminal, and the second sub-region is configured to display the session identifier of the at least one other session, wherein
when the end point of the movement track is located in the first sub-region, the target transmission object is the associated terminal; when the end point of the movement track is located in the second sub-region, the target transmission object is a target session in the at least one other session; and the target session satisfies the following condition: a distance between a display position of a session identifier of the target session and a position of the end point of the movement track is less than or equal to a distance threshold.

5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the method further comprises:
displaying a first prompt in the icon display region in a process of moving the message icon to the object display region, wherein
the first prompt prompts that when a pressing operation on the message icon is canceled in the icon display region, transmission of the data resource corresponding to the target message is canceled.

6. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the method further comprises:
highlighting, when the message icon is moved to the object display region, the sub-region where the message icon is located.

7. The method according to claim 6 , wherein the sub-region where the message icon is located is the second sub-region, and the method further comprises:
synchronously updating, when the sub-region where the message icon is located is highlighted, a display state of the session identifier of each of the at least one other session in the second sub-region to a to-be-selected state; and
switching, when the message icon is moved to a display position of the session identifier of one of the at least one other session, the display state of the session identifier of the one of the at least one other session from the to-be-selected state to a selected state.

8. The method according to claim 1 , wherein after the finishing playing the transmission indication animation, the method further comprises:
outputting a second prompt in the object display region, the second prompt prompting to cancel a pressing operation on the message icon, to transmit the data resource corresponding to the target message; and
performing, when the pressing operation on the message icon is canceled, the operation of transmitting the data resource corresponding to the target message to the target transmission object.

9. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the object display region further comprises a waiting progress bar comprising a plurality of sub-progress bars; and a display state of each sub-progress bar is a first state, and a sub-progress bar corresponds to a duration interval; and
the playing a transmission indication animation in the object display region according to a pressing duration for which the message icon is pressed in the object display region comprises:
sequentially updating the display state of each sub-progress bar in the waiting progress bar from the first state to a second state according to a change of the pressing duration for which the message icon is pressed in the object display region, wherein
the finishing playing the transmission indication animation means that the display state of each of all sub-progress bars in the waiting progress bar is the second state.

10. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises:
returning from the resource transmission interface to the session interface when a pressing operation on the message icon is canceled in the icon display region.

11. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises:
playing a resource transmission animation in the object display region in a process of transmitting the data resource corresponding to the target message to the target transmission object, the resource transmission animation reflecting a transmission progress of the data resource corresponding to the target message; and
outputting prompt information in the object display region after finishing the transmission of the data resource corresponding to the target message, the prompt information prompting that the data resource is successfully transmitted to the target transmission object or the data resource fails to be transmitted to the target transmission object.

12. A data transmission apparatus, comprising:
