Embodiment Construction
[0051] Many electronic devices include touch-sensitive surfaces that allow users to manipulate user interfaces. For example, finger strokes on a touch-sensitive surface draw lines on a canvas in a drawing application. However, existing methods for manipulating user interfaces are slow, cumbersome and inefficient. For example, the number of types of inputs that can occur at an electronic device in response to a surface touch is limited. Even multi-step surface touches such as gestures offer relatively few input types because they still require touch contact with the screen.
[0052] The following embodiments address these issues by providing a single tool (eg, a stylus) that takes advantage of the user's myriad complex hand and finger manipulations. Hand and finger manipulation occurs at the stylus and provided to the electronic device. Thus, the user does not need to constrain his / her hands and fingers to the screen to manipulate the user interface, thus utilizing more hand...

Various embodiments disclosed herein provide devices, methods, and graphical user interfaces for an electronic device interacting with a stylus. In some embodiments, an application mode is changed inresponse to detecting the stylus being held. In some embodiments, functionality of the stylus is changed based on a stylus grip arrangement. In some embodiments, touch input functionality is changed when the stylus is being held. In some embodiment, displayed marks are changed based on finger manipulation inputs received by the stylus. In some embodiments, finger manipulation inputs received by the stylus enable navigation within a menu. In some embodiments, marks are created based on a hover distance of the stylus. In some embodiments, an interactive stylus tutorial is displayed. In some embodiments, stylus settings across electronic devices are maintained. In some embodiments, stylus pick-up then a gesture thereon changes tool properties. In some embodiments, a stylus touch changes the active color.
Description
[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application 62 / 679,461, filed June 1, 2018, and U.S. Provisional Patent Application 62 / 729,869, filed September 11, 2018, which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety . technical field [0003] The present invention generally relates to electronic devices that interact with a stylus, including but not limited to user interfaces on the display of the electronic device that are affected by sensor data received from the stylus. Background technique [0004] The use of touch-sensitive surfaces as input devices for computers and other electronic computing devices has grown significantly in recent years. Examples of touch-sensitive surfaces include touchpads and touchscreen displays. These surfaces are widely used to manipulate user interfaces on displays. [0005] However, touch input, including gesture input, provides limited and inefficient co...
