Each WPS document contains the document kernel, the editor, and the shell.

A method for displaying a document according to the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail below in combination with the embodiments, as shown in <FIG>, and steps are as follows.

At step <NUM>, a target document is displayed on a flexible display screen.

In the embodiments of the present disclosure, an electronic device displays the target document on the flexible display screen. The flexible display screen is a display component of the electronic device. The flexible display screen can be folded, unfolded, or bent based on its characteristics; correspondingly, display modes of the flexible display screen includes two display modes such as unfolding mode and folding mode or three display modes such as unfolding mode, folding mode and bending mode, and the like. When the target document is displayed on the flexible display screen, the electronic device selects a version of the target document suitable for a display size of the flexible display screen, according to the display mode of the flexible display screen. If the display mode of the flexible display screen is the unfolding mode, the electronic device displays a tablet version of the target document on the flexible display screen; and if the display mode of the flexible display screen is the folding mode, the electronic device displays a mobile phone version of the target document on the flexible display screen. Display types of the document include a tablet display status and a mobile phone display status. The tablet version corresponds to the tablet display status of the electronic device and the mobile phone version corresponds to the mobile phone display status of the electronic device.

The target document can be any document displayed in the document processing application. Exemplarily, when the document processing application is a WPS application, the target document can be any WPS document displayed in the WPS application.

At step <NUM>, when a display mode of the flexible display screen is detected to be switched, a first shell of the target document is deleted, and a target display type of the target document after the display mode of the flexible display screen is switched is determined.

In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the display mode of the flexible display screen is changed with a change of a form of the flexible display screen; when the flexible display screen is manually folded or unfolded by a user, the display mode of the flexible display screen is changed, and the electronic device detects the change in the display mode of the flexible display screen. When the display mode of the flexible display screen is detected to be switched, the electronic device deletes the first shell of the target document and determine the target display type of the target document after the display mode of the flexible display screen is switched. The shell includes functional components including a title bar, a menu bar, and a bottom panel in the target document and is composed of codes and containers.

Deleting the first shell of the target document includes: deleting a first code and a first container included in the first shell of the target document. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, when deleting the first shell of the target document, the electronic device deletes the first code and the first container to delete the first shell of the target document. The container is configured to divide the document kernel, the editor, and the shell of the WPS Android application into three independent parts, which protects the document kernel and the editor from being influenced by the deletion of the shell by the electronic device.

Due to the document kernel is the core program of the application, the document kernel ensures normal operations of the application. The editor includes editing components of the document, an editing status, and a content of the document is saved in the editor. Therefore, after the first shell is deleted, the editing status such as select, zoom and the like as well as document contents in the target document will not be lost, where the document contents include a content being processed and an unprocessed content before the display mode of the flexible display screen is switched. Determining the target display type of the target document after the display mode of the flexible display screen is switched can include step <NUM> and step <NUM>:.
