Embodiment Construction

[0022] The following examples are given for detailed description, and the examples are only used as examples for illustration, and will not limit the protection scope of the present invention. In addition, the drawings in the embodiments omit unnecessary components to clearly show the technical characteristics of the present invention.

[0023] According to the electronic device and its control method proposed by the embodiments of the present invention, during the user's operation, the electronic device can predict which key the user may touch next, and change the touch area of ​​the key such as enlarging the key. , so as to increase the chance of the button being touched, and keep the display appearance of the button substantially unchanged, so as to avoid the screen from changing too frequently. In this way, input errors caused by too small software keys can be improved. In this way, the operation convenience of the electronic device can be improved.

Abstract

An electronic device and a control method thereof. The electronic device includes a touch panel and a display panel, and the display panel displays a software keyboard (software? input? panel). The software keyboard contains several software keys. Each software button corresponds to a touch area on the touch panel. The control method involves multiple steps. Receives a touch input from a software button. One or more candidate software keys that may be touched next are determined based on the software key. Enlarge the touch area corresponding to one of the candidate software keys. The display appearance (layout) of the enlarged candidate software keys remains substantially unchanged.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an application of a software keyboard (SoftwareInputPanel), in particular to an electronic device providing a software keyboard and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the vigorous development of touch sensing technology, more and more electronic devices begin to use touch screens to replace traditional screens and physical keyboards, and then simultaneously serve as a display screen and an interface for users to input information. According to this touch sensing technology, a software keyboard (Software Input Panel) technology is developed to allow users to directly input text or symbols into electronic devices through the touch screen. [0003] However, for light, thin, short, and small handheld electronic devices, the size of the touch screen is usually limited, making the software keyboard more difficult to operate. In other words, since the touch screen on the handheld electronic device is already...
