This disclosure provides an operation method. The method is applied to an electronic device, and includes: displaying a first interface, where the first interface includes first content of a first application; detecting a first operation in the first interface; displaying a first window in the first interface in response to the first operation, where a first area in the first window is used to display the first content of the first application; detecting a second operation in the first window; and in response to the second operation, displaying second content of the first application in the first area in the first window, and displaying, in the first interface, content the same as that in the first area in the first window.

DISPLAY SCREEN ASSEMBLY AND MOBILE TERMINAL
20220360656 · 2022-11-10 ·

A display screen assembly and a mobile terminal are provided and include a display screen and a housing, the housing includes a bottom wall and side walls disposed around the bottom wall, the side walls disposed around the bottom wall are provided with positioning ribs configured to prevent the display screen from being in contact with the side walls, gaps are provided between the positioning ribs and the display screen, and a top of the positioning ribs is not higher than a top of the backlight plate.

MOBILE TERMINAL AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME

Disclosed is a mobile terminal and method for controlling the same. According to an embodiment of the disclosure, a mobile terminal includes a display; a sensing unit; and a controller, wherein the display is configured to display a virtual keyboard and display a content entered by a user using the virtual keyboard on a content input window, wherein the virtual keyboard includes an undo key for canceling a task performed in the content input window and a redo key for restoring a canceled task, and wherein when the sensing unit detects a first drag past a first border line designated on a side of the undo key after a touch on the undo key, the controller is configured to display a first expected change of content expected to be changed and displayed in the content input window to be identified when one of tasks performed in the content input window is to be canceled in a designated unit.

Electronic Devices With Sidewall Displays

Electronic devices may be provided that contain flexible displays that are bent to form displays on multiple surfaces of the devices. Bent flexible displays may be bent to form front side displays and edge displays. Edge displays may be separated from front side displays or from other edge displays using patterned housing members, printed or painted masks, or by selectively activating and inactivating display pixels associated with the flexible display. Edge displays may alternately function as virtual buttons, virtual switches, or informational displays that are supplemental to front side displays. Virtual buttons may include transparent button members, lenses, haptic feedback components, audio feedback components, or other components for providing feedback to a user when virtual buttons are activated.

Displaying options, assigning notification, ignoring messages, and simultaneous user interface displays in a messaging application

An electronic device with a touch-sensitive surface and display can execute a messaging application. In the messaging application, swipe options can be displayed for messages and threads. Swipe options correspond to actions that can be taken on the messages or threads. Messages and threads can be associated with notification rules as well as be ignored. Composition interfaces and messages can be displayed simultaneously in the messaging application. The messaging application can display a conversation view of a message thread with a common header that can include subject information and names of participants in the threads. The messaging application allows for adding and removing participants to the conversation view. The messaging application allows for grouping search results from a search of messages using a search term. The grouping can be based on the location of the search term within the messages.

DISPLAY DEVICE AND DRIVING METHOD THEREOF
20230041419 · 2023-02-09 ·

A display device is described including a display panel for displaying an image and an input sensing unit disposed on the display panel for sensing a user input. The input sensing unit includes: an electrode unit including first electrodes and second electrodes which intersect each other and a control unit for determining the proximity of an object or the shape of the object, based on capacitance change values of the first electrodes and the second electrodes. In a first mode the input sensing unit is driven using a self-capacitance method. The control unit may merge the capacitance change values, and determine the proximity of the object based on the merged value. In a second mode based on mutual capacitance, the control unit may determine the shape of the object.

ULTRASONIC FINGERPRINT SENSOR TECHNOLOGIES AND METHODS FOR BI-DIRECTIONAL FINGERPRINT SENSING

Apparatuses, systems, and methods are provided for ultrasonic fingerprint sensors that are able to be used to detect fingerprints from opposing sides of an apparatus, e.g., a smartphone with screens on both sides of the housing. Some implementations of such sensors may include, for example, two piezoelectric and sensor pixel layer assemblies coupled to a common controller. Other implementations of such sensors may include, for example, a single piezoelectric and sensor pixel assembly coupled with a controller configured to apply a range-gate delay to obtain fingerprint scans from either opposing side of an apparatus. Yet further implementations of such sensors may include acoustic masking layers to spatially filter ultrasonic waves propagating to either side of an apparatus.
