Input method and electronic device

Abstract

The invention discloses an input method and an electronic device. The method includes: detecting successive sliding operations in a keyboard area to obtain successive sliding trajectory; identifying filter conditions that match the successive sliding trajectory according to preset trajectory identification rules; identifying the successive sliding trajectory and finding out from a word bank at least one to-be-determined candidate item that meets the trajectory characteristics of the successive sliding trajectory; and displaying a candidate item / candidate items that meets / meet the filter conditions in the undetermined candidate items. The method enables the complexity of operation in an input process to be reduced and the input efficiency to be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of input methods, and more specifically relates to an input method and electronic equipment. Background technique [0002] The process of using an electronic device equipped with a touch screen to perform continuous sliding input to realize word input is: the user performs continuous sliding on the virtual keyboard, and the character string drawn during the continuous sliding process is used as the input character string, and the electronic device starts from the drawn character string. The encoded string is identified in the string, and then the input method program converts the encoded string into the corresponding word candidate, and displays the corresponding candidate on the candidate bar on the touch screen, and then the user clicks on the candidate to complete the process. Select to confirm entering the desired word. [0003] Since the same input string sequence can correspond to multiple cha...

Problems solved by technology

However, for the continuous sliding input method, since the current continuous sliding input operation needs to be interrupted, and after clicking a button, the user needs to click a button again or perform another sliding gesture operation to input another continuous sliding The trajectory can be used to determine the candidates that need to be deleted and selected to meet a certain tone. The operation process is cumbersome and reduces the input efficiency.
