Embodiment Construction

[0030]Many electronic devices have graphical user interfaces that allow certain manipulations of displayed user interface objects in response to certain touch input gestures. However, conventional methods and interfaces for processing touch inputs are inefficient at disambiguating certain touch inputs to determine intended gestures and intended user interface object manipulations. The disclosed embodiments address these limitations and shortcomings by enabling improved handling and disambiguation of touch input. For example, the disclosed methods and devices allow for quick response to touch input, which improves the user experience with such electronic devices. For battery-operated devices, the disclosed methods and devices conserve battery power and increase the time between battery charges.

[0031] under, Figure 1A to Figure 1B , figure 2 and image 3 A description of an exemplary device is provided. Figure 4 A description of an exemplary electronic stylus is provi...

Abstract

The present invention provides an electronic device having a display, a touch-sensitive surface, and one or more sensors for detecting the intensity of contact with the touch-sensitive surface, the electronic device displaying a first user of a first software application an interface that detects an input on the touch-sensitive surface while the first user interface is being displayed, and in response to detecting the input while the first user interface is being displayed, during a first predefined time period according to the determination The input satisfies an intensity input criterion comprising the input meeting an intensity threshold, a first operation is performed, and according to the determination the input satisfies including the input remains below the intensity threshold during the first predefined period of time The long press standard to perform the second operation.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to electronic devices having touch-sensitive surfaces, including but not limited to electronic devices having sensors for detecting the intensity of contacts on the touch-sensitive surfaces. Background technique [0002] The use of touch-sensitive surfaces as input devices for computers and other electronic computing devices has grown significantly in recent years. Exemplary touch-sensitive surfaces include touchpads and touchscreen displays. Such surfaces are widely used for manipulating user interface objects on a display. [0003] Exemplary user interface objects include digital images, video, text, icons, control elements (such as buttons), and other graphics. Exemplary manipulations include adjusting the position and / or size of one or more user interface objects or activating a button or opening a file / application represented by the user interface object, and associating metadata with one or more user inte...
