Description

technical field [0001] In general, the present disclosure relates to electronic document editors for use on touch screen devices. Background technique [0002] Co-editing tools allow computer device users to edit documents together with other users. This tool allows multiple users to access electronic documents from a computer or remote device and edit the documents on the device. Users can interact with documents using a keyboard and mouse connected to the computer. As portable devices and tablet computers become more commonplace, users who want to edit collaborative documents may be limited by the input options for keyboard and mouse input devices, which are available for stationary devices such as desktop computers , but not for portable devices with small screens. Adapting these input options to touch input remains a significant challenge for portable devices. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0003] Disclosed herein are systems and methods for collaborative editing based...
