[0029] Specifically, the object to be edited can be an editable object such as a text box, a text file, or an edit box. The content in the object to be edited can specifically include characters such as numbers, letters, and words, or other editable objects such as images, or any combination thereof.

[0030] Step S12: Acquire a touch track according to the touch operation;

[0031] In one embodiment, step S12: acquiring the touch track according to the touch operation includes starting to acquire and store the coordinates of the touch point according to the touch operation when a trigger instruction to start acquiring is received.

[0032] Specifically, the trigger instruction for starting acquisition is determined to have been received when multiple long press events are detected simultaneously. In other embodiments, the trigger instruction for starting acquisition may be determined to have been received when a single long press event or multiple consecutive short press events are detected. Alternatively, the trigger instruction for starting acquisition may be determined to have been received when a voice instruction including a keyword such as "start acquiring" is received.

[0033] In one embodiment, when a trigger instruction to start acquisition is received, the coordinates of the touch points are acquired and stored according to the touch information, which may include but is not limited to: marking the stored touch points in real time according to the coordinates of the touch points, and displaying the objects to be edited with the marked touch points in real time.

[0034] In one embodiment, step S12: acquiring a touch track according to the touch operation may also include, but is not limited to: displaying the object to be edited marked with the touch track in real time. Specifically, for example, the touch track may be marked in real time with a solid line.

[0035] Step S13: obtaining the area to be edited in the object to be edited according to the touch track;

[0036] Specifically, in one embodiment, step S13, before acquiring the to-be-edited area of ​​the to-be-edited object based on the touch trajectory, includes: determining that a trigger instruction to stop acquisition has been received when no touch information is detected within a preset time period; upon receiving the trigger instruction to stop acquisition, stopping acquisition of the touch point coordinates and acquiring the to-be-edited area based on the touch trajectory. In other embodiments, the to-be-edited area of ​​the to-be-edited object can also be acquired in real time based on the touch trajectory.

[0037] In one embodiment, step S13 : after obtaining the area to be edited in the object to be edited according to the touch track, may include, but is not limited to: marking the area to be edited. Specifically, for example, the area to be edited may be marked in real time using a dotted frame.

[0038] Step S14: Edit the area to be edited.

[0039] Specifically, in one embodiment, step S14: editing the area to be edited may include but is not limited to: editing the characters or pictures in the area to be edited, such as rearranging, deleting a character or picture in the area to be edited, or inserting a character or picture in the area to be edited, etc., and may also include copying and pasting the entire area to be edited, etc.

[0040] The editing method of this embodiment obtains the area to be edited in the object to be edited according to the touch trajectory, which is simple to operate and highly flexible. In addition, the editing method of this embodiment can display the object to be edited with the touch point marked in real time, which can help users select the target object more accurately.

[0041] Figure 2 FIG. 1 is a flow chart showing an editing method according to a second embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 As shown, the editing method of this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0042] Step S21: receiving a user's touch operation;

[0043] Step S22: Acquire a touch track according to the touch operation;

[0044] Step S23: when the touch track is closed, determining the area to be edited according to the objects surrounded and / or covered by the touch track;

[0045] Specifically, in this embodiment, step S23: when the touch track is closed, determining the area to be edited based on the objects surrounded and / or covered by the touch track includes: if the touch track covers a second object, expanding the touch track to a state that surrounds the second object and minimizes the number of objects; and deforming the expanded touch track according to the layout rules of the edited object. The second object may be, for example, a character. Of course, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the deformation process may also be performed before or simultaneously with the expansion process. Figure 3 Show an application such as Figure 2 The effect diagram of the area to be edited obtained by the editing method shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, since the layout of the editing objects is arranged in a matrix, the boundary of the area to be edited is also composed of horizontal and vertical lines, but the present invention is not limited to this. The boundary of the area to be edited can also be arc-shaped, wavy, etc.

[0046] In other embodiments, step S23: when the touch track is closed, determining the area to be edited based on the objects surrounded and / or covered by the touch track includes: obtaining a first object surrounded by the touch track and a second object covered by the touch track; and determining the area within the object to be edited that contains the first object and the second object as the area to be edited. Alternatively, only the area within the object to be edited that contains the first object may be determined as the area to be edited, and the second object covered by the touch track may also be extracted to generate the area to be edited. The layout of the second object in the area to be edited may be the same as or different from the layout of the second object within the object to be edited. The first object and / or the second object may be characters, pictures, or other types of objects.

[0047] Step S24: marking the area to be edited in the object to be edited;

[0048] Specifically, if Figure 3 As shown, the boundary of the area to be edited can be marked with a dotted line, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0049] Step S25: Edit the area to be edited.

[0050] In one embodiment, before editing the region to be edited, step S25 may also include, but is not limited to: moving the region to be edited according to a drag command; and / or expanding the region to be edited according to a join command; and / or shrinking the region to be edited according to a delete command. Specifically, for example, upon receiving a join command, two regions to be edited are merged to expand the region to be edited. Upon receiving a delete command, a subregion within the region to be edited is deleted to shrink the region to be edited.

[0051] The editing method of this embodiment can obtain the area to be edited in the object to be edited according to the closed touch track, without the need to select target objects (such as characters) in sequence. The operation is simple and flexible.

[0052] Figure 4 FIG. 4 is a flow chart showing an editing method according to a third embodiment of the present invention. Figure 4 As shown, the editing method of this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0053] Step S41: displaying the object to be edited;

[0054] Step S42: receiving a touch operation from the user;

[0055] Step S43: Acquire a touch track according to the touch operation;

[0056] In one embodiment, step S43: after acquiring the touch track according to the touch operation, the following may also be included but not limited to: marking the touch track in real time (please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 The touch track is marked with a solid line, but the present invention is not limited thereto).

[0057] Step S44: when the touch track is not closed, determining the area to be edited based on a straight line connecting the two ends of the touch track;

[0058] Specifically, step S44: When the touch track is not closed, determining the area to be edited based on the straight line formed by connecting the two ends of the touch track may include, but is not limited to: generating a graphic associated with the straight line based on the straight line formed by connecting the two ends of the touch track; and determining the area to be edited based on the objects surrounded and / or covered by the graphic associated with the straight line. The graphic associated with the straight line includes at least one of a rectangular box with the straight line as a diagonal, a circle with the straight line as a diameter, a rectangular box with the straight line as a midpoint connecting the long side, and a rectangular box with the straight line as a long side. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the graphic associated with the straight line may also be other closed graphics set by the system, such as a rhombus, or other non-closed graphics, such as a semicircle with the straight line as a diameter, or other closed graphics generated according to the layout rules of the objects in the object to be edited. In other embodiments, when the distance between the two ends of the touch track is less than a threshold, the touch track may be treated as a closed graphic to determine the area to be edited. For the method of determining the area to be edited when the touch track is a closed graphic, please refer to the relevant description in the second embodiment and will not be repeated here.

[0059] Figure 5 Show application as Figure 4 The effect diagram of the area to be edited obtained by the editing method shown. Determining the area to be edited based on the objects surrounded and / or covered by the graphics associated with the straight line may include but is not limited to: displaying the graphics associated with the straight line ( Figure 5 The content of the object to be edited (shown as a rectangle) includes multiple characters; determining the area to be edited as the area containing the characters surrounded by the graphics associated with the straight line and the characters covered; marking the area to be edited in the object to be edited ( Figure 5 dotted lines are used).

[0060] In other embodiments, when the touch track is not closed, the area to be edited may be determined based on objects covered by the touch track, such as characters. In other words, the objects covered by the touch track, such as characters, are extracted to generate the area to be edited.

[0061] Step S45: Edit the area to be edited.

[0062] The editing method of this embodiment can obtain the area to be edited in the object to be edited based on a non-closed touch trajectory, without selecting the target objects (such as characters) in sequence. The corresponding characters can be obtained within a shorter touch operation time, and the operation is simple and flexible.
