Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of document processing, and in particular to a new interactive method for quick document operation. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous advancement of information technology, document processing software plays an increasingly important role in people's work, study and daily life. These software make it more convenient and efficient to create, edit and manage documents. However, with the popularization of mobile office and the continuous improvement of user needs, the interaction mode of traditional document processing software faces new challenges. Users not only need to complete document operations quickly, but also expect a more intuitive and smooth interaction experience. The more common interaction design solutions are as follows:

[0003] 1. Menu operation area:

[0004] This area is usually located at the top or side of the interface and contains a series of function buttons. These buttons correspond to different document editing operations, such as font adjustment, paragraph typesetting, image insertion, document saving, etc. Users can click these buttons to perform corresponding operations and edit and manage the content of the current page. The key to the design of the menu operation area is to provide intuitive operation guidance and quick access paths so that users can easily find and use the required functions.

[0005] Page switching area:

[0006] The page switching area is usually displayed in the form of a thumbnail list, and users can browse different page previews by sliding. Each thumbnail represents a page in the document, and users can click on any thumbnail to quickly jump to that page for viewing or editing. This design allows users to understand the overall structure of the document at a glance and quickly switch between different pages, greatly improving work efficiency.

[0007] Page content preview and editing area:

[0008] This is the core part of the interface, which displays the detailed content of the currently selected page. Users can perform editing operations such as text input, format adjustment, object insertion, etc. in this area. At the same time, this area may also provide some auxiliary tools, such as zooming in and out of the page view, adjusting the page layout, adding comments, etc. The design goal of the page content preview and editing area is to provide a clear and easy-to-operate editing environment to help users focus on content creation and editing.

[0009] In summary, this interactive design scheme aims to provide an intuitive and efficient document processing experience through reasonable layout and functional division. It meets the high standards of modern users for document processing software by simplifying user operation processes, improving page navigation efficiency and optimizing the editing environment. With the continuous development of technology, future document processing software may introduce more innovative interaction methods, such as gesture control and voice input, to further enhance the user experience.

[0010] In summary, the above prior art has the following problems:

[0011] Traditional menu operation areas usually require users to click buttons to perform operations, which may lead to inefficiency when multitasking or operating quickly, and may not be intuitive enough for some users;

[0012] Although the page switching area provides page previews through a thumbnail list, when processing a large number of documents, users may need to swipe frequently to find a specific page, which may cause operational inconvenience;

[0013] Traditional page turning controllers may not be flexible enough, and users may need to click multiple times when turning pages, which may cause inconvenience when browsing and editing long documents;

[0014] In the page content preview and editing area, users may need to frequently perform undo and redo operations, but traditional undo and redo buttons may not be intuitive or inconvenient to operate.

[0015] To this end, we propose a new interactive method for quick document operations. Summary of the invention

[0066] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0067] See also Figure 1-6 , a new interactive method for quick document operations, including the following:

[0068] 1. Document switching:

[0069] 1. Trigger switching mode:

[0070] The user activates the document switching mode by clicking the "Document Switch" button on the interface. At this time, the visual state of the button changes to indicate that it has been selected and activated.

[0071] As the button state changes, the interface smoothly transitions to the document list view, enhancing the user's sense of operation continuity.

[0072] 2. Document list view:

[0073] The document list should be presented in a clear and neat manner, and each document item should contain sufficient information, such as document name, thumbnail or last edit time, so that users can quickly identify the required document.

[0074] When there are a large number of documents, the list supports vertical scrolling to ensure that all document items are accessible.

[0075] 3. The current document is selected by default:

[0076] In the document list view, the currently active document is highlighted by default, and the user's attention is guided by visual prominence (such as a check box, a different color background, etc.).

[0077] Users can directly click on other documents in the list to quickly switch to the target document.

[0078] 4. Sequential switching function:

[0079] In addition to directly clicking on the document list to switch, users can also switch to the next document one by one in sequence by continuously clicking the "Document Switch" button.

[0080] When switching sequentially, there should be obvious visual feedback, such as the sliding effect of the document item and the update of the highlight status of the current document.

[0081] 5. Exit document switching mode:

[0082] When the user clicks anywhere outside the document list view, the document switching mode should be exited and the previous working interface should be restored.

[0083] Also, ensure that the Document Switch button is unchecked and the button reverts to an inactive visual style.

[0084] 2. Gesture input

[0085] Click the gesture entry button to display the list view of recorded gestures.

[0086] The list shows detailed information for each recorded gesture, including:

[0087] Gesture name: Intuitively display the identification name of each gesture, so users can quickly understand the purpose of each gesture.

[0088] Thumbnails: Provides finger-drawn diagrams of gestures to help users remember and distinguish different gestures.

[0089] Gesture function description: Provide a concise and clear text description of the function associated with each gesture so that users can understand the specific operation and effect of each gesture.

[0090] After clicking the "Add" button, the user enters the gesture add view.

[0091] Gesture name input box: Provides a text input box where users can enter a custom gesture name.

[0092] Gesture function selector: Provides a drop-down menu or list from which the user can select the function corresponding to the gesture.

[0093] Gesture drawing area: Provides a touch-controlled drawing area where users can draw custom gestures with their fingers, and saves gesture patterns and drawing information after the user completes the drawing.

[0094] 3. Gesture Recognition

[0095] The recorded gesture is matched with the gesture pattern drawn by the user in the current gesture recognition area by introducing an intelligent algorithm. If there is a match, the corresponding gesture function is triggered, such as deleting part of the content on the document, adding specified content to the document, etc.

[0096] IV. Exit

[0097] Click to exit the current interactive page

[0098] 5. Quick browsing of the page

[0099] 1. Page display area

[0100] The left area of ​​the page display area is used to display the thumbnail information of the document. In order to adapt to the screen width of different devices, we set the fixed width of each thumbnail to P.

[0101] Based on the total width W of the display area, we can calculate the maximum number of thumbnails that can be displayed, MaxCount, which is W divided by P and rounded up.

[0102] If the total number of pages in the document (TotalPages) is less than or equal to MaxCount, the page display area will directly display thumbnails of all pages without paging.

[0103] When TotalPages is greater than MaxCount, we need to calculate the page interval pageSpace, which is TotalPages divided by MaxCount and rounded down. In this way, we can display a specific page by index i (starting from 0 and ending at MaxCount-1), that is, display the page of pageSpace*i.

[0104] When the user slides in the page display area, we calculate the value of the sliding coordinate x (the coordinate in the width direction) and divide it by TotalPages to get the page number displayIndex corresponding to the current sliding position. The system will update the page information of the sliding position according to displayIndex, so as to achieve the effect of sliding to browse all pages.

[0105] Page Turner

[0106] The page turner is located on the right side of the display area and provides the function of fast page turning. By default, the page turner automatically turns pages at a speed of one page per second.

[0107] In order to provide more flexible page turning control, we designed multiple speed buttons, including 1x speed, 2x speed, 3x speed, and 1x speed, 2x speed, and 3x speed.

[0108] Users can adjust the page turning speed by clicking or long pressing these speed buttons. After clicking the button, the page turner will switch pages at the corresponding time interval.

[0109] During the page turning process, the current page indicator on the right will be updated in real time to reflect the current page number position.

[0110] In order to enhance the user experience, we can also add a smooth transition effect when turning pages to make page switching more natural and smooth.

[0111] 6. Undo and Redo Roulette

[0112] Roulette Interactive Area:

[0113] The roulette interactive area is designed as an intuitive gesture control interface, where users can perform undo and redo operations by swiping counterclockwise or clockwise in the area.

[0114] When the user swipes counterclockwise, the system will perform an undo operation, allowing the user to go back to the previous editing step. Each swipe is considered an undo operation, and during the swipe process, the system will display the number of steps that have been undone in real time on the interface.

[0115] Correspondingly, when the user swipes clockwise, the system will perform a redo operation and reapply the previously undone steps. Similarly, the system will display the number of steps that have been redone in real time.

[0116] To ensure manageability and clarity of the interface, the roulette interactive area supports displaying up to 12 steps of undo and redo. This helps users keep track of their operation history while avoiding overcrowding the interface.

[0117] Undo Redo Area:

[0118] The undo and redo area is located in a prominent position on the interface, and is used to visually display whether the current document or editing status supports undo or redo operations.

[0119] When there are undoable steps, the undo button will be displayed in an activated state, such as by a specific color, icon, or text label to indicate that the user can perform an undo operation.

[0120] Likewise, when there are steps that can be redone, the Redo button will be displayed in an active state, providing a clear indication.

[0121] If the current state does not support undo or redo, the corresponding button will be displayed in an inactive state, such as turning gray or appearing unclickable, to prevent users from performing invalid operations.

[0122] In order to provide a better user experience, the undo and redo area can be designed to be dynamically updated, that is, to reflect the current undo and redo status in real time as the user operates.

[0123] By introducing innovative gesture recognition, optimized page thumbnail display, improved page turning controller design, and undo and redo mechanism of the sliding wheel, the interactive efficiency and user experience of the document processing software have been significantly improved, meeting the needs of modern users for efficient, intuitive and personalized operations.

[0124] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
