Abstract

Provided are a method, an apparatus, a terminal device and a storage medium for switching global special effects. The method includes steps described below. In response to detecting a sliding gesture on a target interface, two global special effects to be switched are determined according to a sliding direction of the sliding gesture. During a sliding process of the sliding gesture, the two global special effects are displayed on two sides of the target interface, and display regions of the two global special effects are changed according to a sliding displacement of the sliding gesture. In response to detecting a release operation of the sliding gesture, a global special effect having a larger display region from the two global special effects is determined as a user-selected global special effect and is displayed on an entire region of the target interface.
