Abstract

An embodiment of the invention provides a method and a device for text input. The method comprises the steps of displaying a text input interface on a display device, detecting first input of an input device and triggering an inquiry text data base through the first input, displaying a text set figure corresponding to the text data base in the text input interface according to the first input and displaying a cursor at the default position of the text set figure, wherein the text set figure comprises texts arranged along the circumference, and the cursor indicates a currently-selected text; detecting second input of the input device, selecting the texts in the text set figure through the second input; and displaying an input set which is used for being input by the input device and matched with selected texts in the text set figure in the text input interface according to the second input of the input device. By means of the technical scheme, the character input operation is simplified, and the input efficiency and user experience are improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of terminals, and more particularly, to a method and apparatus for text input. Background technique [0002] With the development of digital technology, there are more and more types of functions and applications on terminal equipment (Terminal Equipment in English). As an important auxiliary function, text input is widely used in many terminal equipment and applications. However, in order to improve performance and simplify keys, terminal devices usually only provide direction keys and a small number of other keys, such as the OK key and the power key, on the input device of the terminal device. Therefore, on such terminal devices, the direction keys are mainly used to realize text input. [0003] The current commonly used text input method based on direction keys is to select characters, letters or numbers by moving the cursor, the specific content includes: presenting a soft keyboard containing mu...
