Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a progress adjustment method and apparatus, an electronic device and a storage medium. The method comprises: receiving a progress adjustment operation that acts on a progress bar of a target content; in response to the progress adjustment operation, expanding a size of the progress bar, and adjusting the progress of the target content according to the progress adjustment operation; and in response to determining that the progress adjustment operation ends, stopping adjusting, according to the progress adjustment operation, the progress of the target content.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method of adjusting a progress of presenting a target content by an electronic device comprising a processor and a memory, the method comprising:
receiving a progress adjustment operation performed by a user on a progress bar of the target content, wherein the progress bar comprises a slider configured to be movable along the progress bar, and wherein the progress adjustment operation comprises a sliding operation with a sliding direction parallel to a movement direction of the slider;
in response to the progress adjustment operation performed by the user, expanding a size of the progress bar to a larger value in a direction perpendicular to the movement direction of the slider;
adjusting the progress of presenting the target content according to the progress adjustment operation performed by the user; and
in response to determining that the progress adjustment operation ends, stopping adjusting, according to the progress adjustment operation, the progress of the target content.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the expanding the size of the progress bar comprises:
expanding the size of the progress bar in a preset direction to a first size value, wherein the preset direction is perpendicular to a movement direction of a slider in the progress bar.

3. The method according to claim 2 , further comprising:
in response to determining that the progress adjustment operation ends, reducing the size of the progress bar in the preset direction from the first size value to a second size value.

4. The method according to claim 3 , after the reducing the size of the progress bar in the preset direction from the first size value to the second size value, further comprising:
in response to determining that a triggering operation acting on the progress bar has not been received again within a preset duration, reducing the size of the progress bar in the preset direction from the second size to a third size, wherein the triggering operation comprises the progress adjustment operation.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the target content comprises a video, and the adjusting the progress of the target content according to the progress adjustment operation comprises:
adjusting a playback progress of the video according to the progress adjustment operation.

6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the progress adjustment operation is received within a preset response area corresponding to the progress bar.

7. The method according to claim 6 , wherein the target content is presented in a content playback page configured to provide a parent view and a plurality of child views, wherein each of the plurality of child views is associated with a response area corresponding to a control in the content playback page, wherein the plurality of child views comprise a first child view corresponding to the progress bar of the target content, and wherein the receiving the progress adjustment operation performed by a user on the progress bar of the target content comprises:
in response to sequentially receiving a Down event and a Move event within the preset response area, sequentially sending the Down event and the Move event to the first child view corresponding to the progress bar;
expanding the size of the progress bar in response to the Down event by the first child view and adjusting the progress of the target content in response to the Move event by the first child view;
in response to receiving an Up event corresponding to the Move event, sending the Up event to the first child view;
determining, by the first child view, the progress adjustment operation ends in response to receiving the Up event by the first child view.

8. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the plurality of child views further comprise a second child view associated with a target response area corresponding to another control in the content playback page, and wherein the method further comprises:
in response to sequentially receiving a Down event and an Up event determining whether the Down event and the Up event are received within an overlapping area between the preset response area corresponding to the progress bar and a target response area corresponding to the another control;
in response to determining that the Down event and the Up event are received within the overlapping area, sequentially sending the Down event and the Up event to the second child view; and
responding to the Down event and the Up event by the second child view.

9. An electronic device, comprising:
one or more processors;
a memory configured to store one or more programs,
wherein the one or more programs, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to implement operations comprising:
receiving a progress adjustment operation performed by a user on a progress bar of the target content, wherein the progress bar comprises a slider configured to be movable along the progress bar, and wherein the progress adjustment operation comprises a sliding operation with a sliding direction parallel to a movement direction of the slider;
in response to the progress adjustment operation performed by the user, expanding a size of the progress bar to a larger value in a direction perpendicular to the movement direction of the slider;
adjusting the progress of presenting the target content according to the progress adjustment operation performed by the user; and
in response to determining that the progress adjustment operation ends, stopping adjusting, according to the progress adjustment operation, the progress of the target content.

10. The electronic device according to claim 9 , wherein the expanding the size of the progress bar comprises:
expanding the size of the progress bar in a preset direction to a first size value, wherein the preset direction is perpendicular to a movement direction of a slider in the progress bar.

11. The electronic device according to claim 10 , wherein the one or more programs, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to further implement operations comprising:
in response to determining that the progress adjustment operation ends, reducing the size of the progress bar in the preset direction from the first size value to a second size value.

12. The electronic device according to claim 11 , wherein the one or more programs, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to further implement, after the reducing the size of the progress bar in the preset direction from the first size value to the second size value, operations comprising:
in response to determining that a triggering operation acting on the progress bar has not been received again within a preset duration, reducing the size of the progress bar in the preset direction from the second size to a third size, wherein the triggering operation comprises the progress adjustment operation.

13. The electronic device according to claim 9 , wherein the target content comprises a video, and the adjusting the progress of the target content according to the progress adjustment operation comprises:
adjusting a playback progress of the video according to the progress adjustment operation.

14. The electronic device according to claim 9 , wherein the progress adjustment operation is received within a preset response area corresponding to the progress bar.

15. The electronic device according to claim 14 , wherein the target content is presented in a content playback page configured to provide a parent view and a plurality of child views, wherein a first c
