Problems solved by technology

When using a mobile terminal to perform operations such as text input, the soft keyboard and the text input interface should be displayed on the same screen. The mode commonly used in the prior art is: figure 1 As shown, the soft keyboard area and the text input interface are set separately on the same screen. This mode results in a limited size of the display area of ​​the soft keyboard and the text input interface, which is prone to misuse
In addition, in order to maximize the display area of ​​the text input interface and the soft keyboard when the user is performing a split-screen application, the text input interface and the soft keyboard are usually displayed in two split screens. Split-screen chat, another split-screen to watch video, such a soft keyboard display will seriously affect the user experience

Embodiment 1

[0083] based on figure 1 The mobile terminal 100 shown in this embodiment adds some functional modules to the mobile terminal 100 to form the soft keyboard display device 100' of the present invention, such as Figure 4 As shown, it includes a soft keyboard setting module 410, a touch judgment module 420, and a soft keyboard control module 430; among them,

[0084] The soft keyboard setting module 410 is used to set the layer of the soft keyboard in the pop-up state as the uppermost layer of all layers on the touch screen, and at the same time set its display area on the touch screen (in this embodiment, the display area is set to be omitted). It is smaller than the entire touch screen); the operation in the soft keyboard display area is regarded as the operation on the soft keyboard.

[0085] The touch judgment module 420 is used to judge the touch operation received on the touch screen and the current state of the soft keyboard. If it is detected that the soft keyboard is in a pop...

Embodiment 2

[0100] In the first embodiment, the touch screen is a single-screen application, and the soft keyboard is transparently displayed on the entire touch screen in a pop-up state. At present, with the advancement of split screen technology, many users have begun to adopt split screen applications for touch screens. For example, the touch screen is divided into two split screens, which are used to chat with friends and play videos with QQ; in this split screen application, If the soft keyboard is displayed transparently on the entire touch screen in the pop-up state, it will definitely affect the user's viewing of videos and reduce the user experience.

[0101] Therefore, in the second embodiment, the difference is that in the case of a split screen application, the display area of ​​the soft keyboard in the pop-up state is limited to the split screen to which the text input box of the received click operation belongs. In this way, the convenience of the user's text input operation an...

Embodiment 3

[0104] In the first embodiment, the function keys of the soft keyboard are the same as the traditional way, such as Picture 11 As shown, the user completes the input of characters / pinyin, etc. in sequence by clicking the corresponding key position. In actual applications, the user may make input errors or omissions due to negligence, and needs to modify part of the input text. At this time, in the first embodiment, since the traditional soft keyboard is used, the user needs to delete the input text and re-enter the correct text, so the operation is not user-friendly.

[0105] Therefore, in the third embodiment, the soft keyboard is improved, and the improved soft keyboard is like Picture 12 As shown, two pairs of function keys have been added, namely: a pair of related entry selection keys ( Picture 12 , Shown by the upper and lower arrow symbols respectively) and a pair of lateral movement keys ( Picture 12 Shown with two arrow symbols on the left and right). The associat...

Abstract

The invention provides a soft keyboard display method and device. The method includes: setting a popup soft keyboard on the uppermost layer of all image layers of a touch screen, setting the soft keyboard on the display area of the touch screen at the same time, and regarding operations, in the display area as the operations of the soft keyboard; judging the touch operations received on the touch screen in real time and the current state of the soft keyboard, and controlling the soft keyboard to pop up and transparently display in the preset display area if the fact that the soft keyboard is closed and touch operations exist in the text input box area of the touch screen is detected; controlling the soft keyboard to close if the fact the soft keyboard is popped up and the touch operations exist outside the display area of the soft keyboard is detected. By the soft keyboard display method, the problem that the soft keyboard and the text input interface occupy the space of each other is solved, the operation area of the soft keyboard and the text input interface is increased, user operation is facilitated, precision is increased, interference between split screens is avoided, and user experience is increased.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of communication technology, in particular to a display method and device of a soft keyboard. Background technique [0002] The proliferation of mobile terminals including smart phones and tablet electronic devices has greatly facilitated people's use. However, compared with traditional desktop or notebook computers, mobile terminals do not have a physical keyboard, but instead use a soft keyboard as a medium for user input. The soft keyboard is a keyboard simulated by software, displayed on the touch screen of the mobile terminal, and the soft keyboard input is realized by the user clicking the corresponding position of the displayed virtual key. When using a mobile terminal for text input and other operations, the soft keyboard and the text input interface must be displayed on the same screen. The mode usually adopted in the prior art is: figure 1 As shown, the soft keyboard area and the text input interface are...
