Problems solved by technology

However, when the backspace key is small relative to the size of the user's input medium (e.g., relative to the size of the user's finger), the user may experience difficulty in precisely deleting text
As such, it can be difficult and slow down the user's interaction with the computing device when using a graphical keyboard to delete characters

example 1

[0141] Example 1: A method comprising: outputting, by a computing device, a text display area comprising one or more characters for display; in response to receiving an indication that an input unit detected at a first location where a sensitive input device is present, by the The computing device outputs a graphical indication comprising a representation of the threshold distance for display; receiving, by the computing device, an indication of a gesture detected at the presence-sensitive input device, the gesture comprising the input unit from the presence-sensitive input movement of the first position of the device to a second position of the presence-sensitive input device; responsive to receiving the indication of the gesture, by the computing device a visual change of the graphical indication corresponding to movement to the second location is displayed; determining, by the computing device, that the distance between the first location and the second location satisfies th...

example 2

[0142] Example 2: The method of Example 1, wherein outputting a visual change of the graphical indication corresponding to movement of the input unit from the first position to the second position comprises outputting a visual change of the graphical indication The visual change is to indicate a distance between a location of the presence-sensitive input device where the input unit is detected and the second location.

example 3

[0143] Example 3: The method of any of Examples 1-2, further comprising outputting, by the computing device, a visual effect corresponding to the movement of the input unit for display, the visual effect indicating the one or more characters was selected for deletion.

Abstract

Provides a visual feedback for removal. In one example, a method includes outputting, by the computing device, a text display area including one or more characters for display. The method may also include outputting a graphical indication comprising a representation of the threshold distance in response to receiving an indication that the input unit detected at the first location where the sensitive input device is present. The method may further include receiving an indication of a gesture including movement of the input unit from the first position to the second position, and outputting a visual change of the graphical indication corresponding to the movement of the input unit. The method may further include determining that a distance between the first location and the second location satisfies a threshold distance, and deleting one or more characters from the text display area in response to determining that the threshold distance is satisfied.

Description

[0001] This application claims priority to US Provisional Application No. 61 / 714,603, filed October 16, 2012, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. technical field [0002] The present invention relates to methods and devices for displaying graphical content and deleting one or more parts of said graphical content. Background technique [0003] Some computing devices (eg, mobile phones, tablet computers, etc.) may provide a graphical keyboard as part of a graphical user interface for composing text (eg, with presence-sensitive input devices and / or displays, such as touch screens). A graphical keyboard may enable a user of the computing device to enter text (eg, emails, text messages, or documents, etc.). For example, a display device of a computing device may output a graphical (or "soft") keyboard that allows a user to enter data by indicating (eg, by tapping) keys displayed on the presence-sensitive display. [0004] A graphical keyboard may enable a ...
