A method of sliding to input text

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for inputting characters on the basis of sliding of a touch screen. The method comprises the following steps: pressing any key in a virtual keyboard on the touch screen, and displaying a floating keyboard which is matched with a touch point and comprises 8 direction display bits at a place far away from the touch point; and sliding from the touch point toward different directions so as to select different input contents, synchronously displaying the input contents at the center of the floating keyboard, and synchronously changing the displayed contents at the 8 display bits, wherein full Pinyin syllables or various characters can be input through at most two sliding operations, and other functions can be realized through matching non-character keys via same actions. Through the method provided by the invention, the Chinse character Pinyin input with fixed simple vowel directions, less transition, short distance and shelter-free sliding is realized; the key quantity at the main key area is greatly decreased and accidental touch is difficult to happen; the symbols and numbers can be efficiently input; and a more convenient touch screen character input manner is provided for the users.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to information processing of Chinese characters, in particular to a method and device for sliding text input based on a touch screen. Background technique [0002] In recent years, there have been some touch-screen Chinese pinyin input methods based on the sliding mode. However, there are mainly the following defects, which cause various inconveniences and fail to become mainstream: [0003] 1. Need to slide each final letter in the Chinese syllable one by one, the sliding distance is long, there are many inflection points, and the input speed is slow. [0004] 2. The orientation of the finals is not fixed during the sliding process, and the sliding direction of the same final is inconsistent for different initials and at different stages, which is not conducive to the user's formation of reflective memory. [0005] 3. During the sliding process, some letters to be selected are blocked by fingers or stylus, which is not practica...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, there are mainly the following defects, which cause various inconveniences and fail to become mainstream:

[0003] 1. You need to slide over each final letter in the Chinese syllable one by one, the sliding distance is long, there are many inflection points, and the input speed is slow

[0004] 2. The orientation of the finals is not fixed during the sliding process, and the sliding direction of the same final is inconsistent for different initials and at different stages, which is not conducive to the user's formation of reflective memory

[0005] 3. During the sliding process, some letters to be selected are blocked by fingers or stylus, which is not practical

[0006] 4. During the sliding process, the display position of the input letter set is far away from the sight focus of the sliding key, which is not convenient for the user to confirm the input result in real time, and the experience is not good

[0008] 6. Failing to make full use of the touch and slide combination, we can only rely on the method of switching the keyboard mode to input most symbols and numbers
