Abstract

An information processing method and an electronic device are provided in the present disclosure. The method includes: acquiring an adjustment instruction to an icon object in a display content, where the adjustment instruction includes parameter information, a display mode of at least one of the icon object of a first type and the icon object of a second type is determined according to the parameter information, the icon object of a first type is configured to carry the icon object of a second type; adjusting the icon object in the display content based on the parameter information in response to the adjustment instruction to make the icon object present an adjusted display effect via the display unit.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An information processing method, applied in an electronic device including a processor, comprising:
acquiring by the processor, an adjustment instruction to S icon objects in a display content of a display included in the electronic device, wherein, S is an integer and S≧1, the adjustment instruction includes parameter information;
adjusting, by the processor, the S icon objects in the display content based on the parameter information in response to the adjustment instruction to make the icon object present an adjusted display effect via the display,
wherein each icon object is used for identifying an application installed on the electronic device, and wherein the display includes a display region; and
controlling, by the processor, to display a background image in the display region of the display and present a first display effect;
wherein acquiring, by the processor, an adjustment instruction to an icon object in a display content comprises:
acquiring, by the processor, a first transparency value, a second transparency value and a third first transparency value;

wherein adjusting, by the processor, the S icon objects in the display content based on the parameter information in response to the adjustment instruction comprises:
adjusting, by the processor, the S icon objects in the display content based on the first transparency value, the second transparency value and the third first transparency value in response to the adjustment instruction,

wherein adjusting, by the processor, the S icon objects in the display content based on the first transparency value, the second transparency value and the third first transparency value comprises:
controlling, by the processor, to display M icon objects included in the S icon objects on the display region of the display, with M being an integer and S≧M≧1, and the M icon objects covering portions of the background image corresponding to the M icon objects; wherein each of the M icon objects occupies an icon region on the display region, each of the M icon regions is smaller than the display region, and the processor controls a first application corresponding to a first icon object to make a response when a first operation instruction for the first icon object is obtained;
wherein controlling, by the processor, to display the M icon objects on the display region of the display comprises:
for each of the M icon objects, determining, by the processor, on the display region, an icon region corresponding to the icon object in which the icon object is to be located;
displaying N icon objects among the M icon objects in icon regions corresponding to the N icon objects based on first transparency value of N icon objects of a second type and second transparency value of N icon objects of a first type to make portions of the background image corresponding to the N icon objects of a first type present a second display effect which is different from the first display effect, wherein the first transparency value is less than the second transparency value, and both M and N are integers, 1≦N≦M; and
displaying icon objects among the M icon objects except the N icon objects in icon regions corresponding to the icon objects among the M icon objects except the N icon objects in icon based on third transparency value of the icon objects among the M icon objects except the N icon objects in icon.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein:
the S icon objects comprise L icon objects, L being an integer and S≧L≧1,
the parameter information comprises color parameter information, and
adjusting, by the processor, the S icon objects in the display content based on the parameter information in response to the adjustment instruction comprises:
adjusting, by the processor, the L icon objects in the display content based on the color parameter information in response to the adjustment instruction.

3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein adjusting the L icon objects in the display content based on the color parameter information in response to the adjustment instruction comprises:
wherein adjusting, by the processor, the icon object in the display content based on the parameter information in response to the adjustment instruction to make the icon object present an adjusted display effect via the display comprises:
adjusting, by the processor, a color parameter value of each of L objects in the display content based on the color parameter information in response to a color adjustment instruction to make each of the L objects present an adjusted display effect by the display, wherein the color parameter value of each of the L objects for presenting an unadjusted display effect is corresponding to a first value, the color parameter value of each of the L objects for presenting the adjusted display effect is corresponding to a second value, the first value of each object is different from the second value of each object, and the second value of each object is within a predetermined value range.

4. The method according to claim 3 , wherein acquiring, by the processor, an adjustment instruction comprises:
acquiring, by the processor, the color adjustment instruction while an unlocking operation instruction is acquired in the case that the electronic device is in a locked state;
wherein adjusting, by the processor, a color parameter value of each of L objects in a display content based on the color parameter information in response to the color adjustment instruction comprises:
adjusting, by the processor, the color parameter value of each of the L objects in the display content based on the color parameter information in response to both the color adjustment instruction and the unlocking operation instruction; and
displaying, by the processor, each object based on the adjusted display effect after the electronic device is controlled based on the color adjustment instruction to switch from the locked state to an unlocked state.

5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein acquiring, by the processor, the color adjustment instruction while an unlocking operation instruction is acquired comprises:
displaying a color unlocking interface by the display, wherein the color unlocking interface displays different colors in different regions; and
acquiring, by the processor, the color parameter information corresponding to a region selected by a user and acquiring the color adjustment instruction in the case that the user slides on the color unlocking interface to trigger the unlocking operation instruction.

6. The method according to claim 4 , wherein acquiring, by the processor, the color adjustment instruction while an unlocking operation instruction is acquired comprises:
displaying an unlocking color bar by the display, wherein the unlocking color bar includes transition colors; and
acquiring, by the processor, the color parameter information corresponding to a color selected by a user and acquiring the color adjustment instruction in the case that the user slides on the unlocking color bar to trigger the unlocking operation instruction.

7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein displaying the N icon objects among the M icon objects in the icon regions corresponding to the N icon objects based on the first transparency value of the N icon objects of a second type and the second transparency value of the N icon objects of a first type to make the portions of the background image corresponding to the N icon objects of a first type present the second display effect which is different from the first display effect comprises:
recognizing, by the processor, the N icon objects;
determining, by the processor, the N icon objects of a second type and the N icon objects of a first type;
determining, by the processo
