Problems solved by technology

[0009] In addition, the casing of existing handheld devices is usually adjacent to the edge of the display area of ​​the touch display, and is much more protruding than the touch-sensitive plane of the touch display.
Since the protruding part of the shell will block the touch operation of input tools (including fingers or stylus pens) and easily scratch the fingers, the user will not be able to quickly and effectively touch the pixels on the edge of the display area of ​​the touch display, and cannot In addition, the non-display area of ​​the touch display still has the ability of touch sensing, and the shell of the general handheld device usually covers this area, which not only hinders the user's touch operation, but also allows the Touch-sensing applications for tactile displays are limited

Embodiment Construction

[0033] With the current hand-held devices, users can only quickly open some specific functions by pressing hot keys. However, the number of hot keys on the hand-held devices is limited. A user interface with common functions is bound to increase the convenience of operating the handheld device. The present invention is a method for operating a user interface and a handheld device using the method developed based on the above viewpoint. In order to make the content of the present invention more clear, the following specific examples are given as examples in which the present invention can indeed be implemented.

[0034] FIG. 1 is a flow chart illustrating an operation method of a user interface according to an embodiment of the present invention. Please refer to FIG. 1 . This embodiment illustrates the detailed steps of how the handheld device automatically switches the corresponding user interface according to different input tools when the user is operating a handheld device...

Abstract

The invention discloses an electronic device and a user interface operating method for the software of the device, wherein, a processor of the electronic device receives the input signal through a touch-control sensing device, determines the type of the input tool which generates the input signal, and then opens or closes various specific functions based on the type of the tool, thereby improving the efficiency and convenience in operating electronic devices.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the user interface operation of an electronic device and its software, and in particular to various functions of the user interface of an electronic device and its software. Background technique [0002] In the busy and compact life of modern people, it has become a very common living habit to emphasize convenience and efficiency in everything. Take handheld devices such as mobile phones or personal digital assistants as an example. In addition to having the characteristics of powerful functions and light weight, users also hope that they can be turned on and executed in a very short time. This is especially true for functions that users use more often, such as writing text messages or checking call records. If the user can quickly activate some commonly used functions when operating the handheld device, the convenience of using the handheld device will certainly be improved. [0003] In order to meet the above requir...
