Abstract:
Disclosed is a character constructing method and device, and a font library building method. The method includes obtaining a character code, a component code, and a structure code of a character to be constructed, and extracting a character component from a character component library according to the component code, the structure code specifying the structure of the character and a position of a character component in the character; generating glyph data of the character by using the character component according to the structure code, and matching the glyph data with the character code. The font library building method includes generating glyph data and a character code corresponding to a character by using the character constructing method, and building a font library by using the glyph data. The characters are preferably Chinese characters.
Abstract:
A touch operation processing method is provided, which comprises the following steps: a terminal device detects a floating position of an operation object in a floating sensing area outside of a screen, and maps the floating position to a corresponding position on the screen; based on the type of an area where the corresponding position locates, the terminal device detects a floating touch operation of the operation object by adopting a way corresponding to the type of the area, and makes a response to the floating touch operation accordingly. Another aspect of the embodiments of the present invention provides a terminal device. The above solution proposed by the present invention provides a variety of choices for the user input operation by introducing floating touch technique during the user input. Further, according to the technical solution proposed by the present invention, manipulation functions corresponding to the floating touch operations can be defined according to the user's requirements, which allows the user input operation to be more efficient and convenient and brings a kind of totally new edit and input experience to the user.
Abstract:
Embodiments of a soft input panel (SIP) for an electronic device are disclosed. The SIP can be configured for entering text in a non-English language that uses a more numerous character set than does English. The characters used in the language that are available to be entered using the SIP can be available to be entered using keys on a single page of keys without switching to a different page of keys or using function keys. At least one of the keys of the SIP is a base key that is configured to open a picker window when activated. The picker window comprises plural picker keys that allow a user to select from plural different characters associated with the base key.
Abstract:
An improved handheld electronic device includes an input apparatus, preferably a trackball, an output apparatus, namely a display, and a processor apparatus. The processor apparatus is structured to execute a number of routines including a stroke-based input user interface routine. The stroke-based input user interface routine is structured to present a user interface on the display. The user interface includes an active portion, a filter portion and an output portion.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention relate to an information processing method and a terminal device, where the method includes: receiving an input character input by a user; displaying, according to the input character and in a ring arrangement around the input character, candidate characters corresponding to the input character; receiving selection information so as to select one candidate character as a to-be-processed character; receiving, according to correspondence between the selection information and a candidate character position, a candidate character in the position corresponding to the selection information as the to-be-processed character; and processing the to-be-processed character.
Abstract:
It is possible to provide a mobile display device which can improve usability even when the character size is increased for improving visibility. A method for controlling the mobile display device is also disclosed. A control unit (18) can set a conversion candidate of an input character displayed on a second display region (conversion candidate character display region (162)) of a display unit (16) to a first display mode (normal mode) for displaying the conversion candidate in a first character size and to a second display mode (enlarged mode) for displaying the conversion candidate in a second character size greater than the first character size while differentiating a display priority of a plurality of conversion candidates to be displayed in the second display region in the first display mode and a display priority of a plurality of conversion candidates to be displayed in the second display region in the second display mode.
Abstract:
A letter input structure of a two-click keyboard adapting a Morse code and an input method of the same, and a recording medium of the method are disclosed. A certain letter is created in selective combination with two keypads among seven keypads consisting of a dot(•) group keypad of a dot(•) keypad, a dot dot(•) keypad and a dot dot dot(•) keypad of a Morse code, a dash(-) group keypad of a dash(-) keypad, a dash dash(- -) keypad, and a dash dash dash (- - -) keypad which are separated and arranged at left and right sides (or upper and lower sides) and one function keypad.
Abstract:
Electronic devices and methods for processing an object in an electronic device are provided. The method includes: when a sensor unit detects that an operator is holding the electronic device, obtaining a first holding position parameter of the operator relative to an input unit; determining a correspondence between the object and the input unit based on the first holding position parameter; and outputting the object by a display unit based on the correspondence. The electronic device includes a processing unit configured to, when a sensor unit detects that an operator is holding the electronic device, obtaining a first holding position parameter of the operator relative to an input unit, determine a correspondence between the object and the input unit based on the first holding position parameter, and output the object via a display unit based on the correspondence.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and computer-storage media having computer-usable instructions embodied thereon, for displaying and inputting symbols are provided. Bopomofo symbols are phonetic representations of Chinese characters. To accommodate all the Bopomofo symbols on a mobile device keyboard without sacrificing key size, the Bopomofo keys are dynamically disabled based on grammar rules and user inputs. For example, a symbol that is not eligible to follow an input symbol is disabled such that it does not distract a user searching for a symbol in the keyboard. Further, specific keys on a keyboard are dynamically replaced with tone keys once a user inputs a symbol. A user interface for displaying the symbols is, thus, consistent and easy to navigate for a user.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for inputting characters using a touch keypad with a plurality of keys are provided, in which upon detection of a user's touch on one of the plurality of keys, a character corresponding to the touched key is acquired, a pop-up character set is generated using the acquired character and a character which has been completely input before the user's touch and displayed in an input character display area, and a touch pop-up including the pop-up character set is displayed in the vicinity of the touched key.
