Embodiment Construction

[0030] The numerous innovations of this application are described with specific reference to presently preferred embodiments (by way of illustration, not limitation).

[0031] In this disclosure, dragging includes the activity associated with continuous contact with an object on the screen, and release of the contact causes a specified action to be applied to the object. The state of the drag can be marked by highlighting, setting a flag or sound, or redrawing the original object.

[0032] Draggable means that the parameters of the selected item are copied and applied to the new location to which the item is dragged. Scrollable refers to allowing the screen to display different items when the selected item is repositioned to the new screen location to which the screen is scrolled.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment, the implemented system is a pocket device with a touch sensitive screen.

[0034] Such as figure 1 and figure 2 As shown, the pocket devices 100 and 200 are s...

Abstract

A system and methods for a novel user interface of a touch sensitive screen for pocket device. The user interface contains display items and action tabs. Display items are configured to be draggable if being dragged at substantially horizontal direction; display items are configured to be scrollable if being dragged at substantially vertical direction. Dragging and releasing a draggable item to an action tab causes a specified action or a sequence of actions being applied to the item.

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority to US Provisional Application Serial No. 61 / 022,803, filed January 22, 2008, the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference. technical field [0003] The present disclosure relates to portable devices that display draggable items. More specifically, it relates to a user interface with draggable objects and action labels on a touch-sensitive screen of a portable device, wherein the draggable object has multiple action options by being dragged to different action labels. Background technique [0004] Note that the points discussed below may reflect hindsight from the disclosed invention, but are not necessarily admitted to be prior art. [0005] Touch screen display devices have been proposed and widely used due to their intuitive interface and low cost. A computer with a touch screen display treats the operator's finger or hand-held stylus as a pointing device for ma...
