Abstract: A method for implementing a view mode switch of a graphical user interface (GUI) is provided. The method is performed at an electronic device with a touch screen display. In this method, a double-finger pinch gesture on a first sub-view object among a plurality of sub-view objects is detected, upon detection of the double-finger pinch gesture on the first sub-view object, the GUI performs a thumbnail-to-complete or complete-to-thumbnail view mode switch; an information content, which is associated with a sub-view object to be presented and adapted to the switched view mode of the GUI is acquired; and the sub-view object with the acquired information content is presented in the GUI.

Abstract: A method for implementing a view mode switch of a graphical user interface (GUI) is disclosed. The method is performed at an electronic device with a touch screen display. In this method, a single-finger double-tap gesture on a first sub-view object among a plurality of sub-view objects is detected, upon detection of the single-finger double-tap gesture on the first sub-view object, the GUI performs a thumbnail-to-complete or complete-to-thumbnail view mode switch; an information content, which is associated with a sub-view object to be presented and adapted to the switched view mode of the GUI is acquired; and the sub-view object with the acquired information content is presented in the GUI.
