Description

Technical Field

[0001] The embodiments of the present application relate to the field of smart terminal technology, and in particular to a cursor insertion method, device and electronic device. Background Art

[0002] The interaction mode of text input controls directly affects the user's experience of editing Chinese text in electronic devices (such as smartphones). Among them, single-click insertion of the cursor is the most important way for users to interact with text input controls. Single-click insertion on the electronic device side usually has the purpose of deleting text, expanding articles, and / or modifying the text before the cursor position. In contrast, double-clicking to select all, the user's purpose is often to select the smallest semantic unit or entity for subsequent operations, including overall replacement, rewriting, copying, or searching. However, when single-clicking the screen to insert the cursor, due to the small screen of the electronic device, the user's finger width is often larger than the character size, resulting in accidental touches and wrong insertions, and the final insertion position of the cursor does not match the position the user expects to insert.

[0045] The terms used in the implementation section of this application are only used to explain the specific embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit this application.

[0046] In order to solve the problem that the final insertion position of the cursor does not match the user's expected position, in a solution provided by the existing related technology, the user's interaction with the cursor is divided into two types: single-finger single-click insertion and two-finger dragging.

[0047] In the case of single-finger single-click insertion, the electronic device (for example, a smartphone) first calculates the physical coordinates of the user touching the screen and then segments the Chinese text into words, and determines the final position of the cursor based on the granularity of the word. The word segmentation is based on the natural language processing (NLP) word segmentation or part-of-speech analysis algorithm, combined with the human factors post-processing algorithm logic based on the experience dimension. Figure 1 A schematic diagram of an example of a click position and a cursor insertion position provided in the prior art, such as Figure 1 As shown, the sentence "Tomorrow morning at ten o'clock go to LuOne Kaide Plaza Hippocampus Photo Studio to take pictures" will first be segmented into [tomorrow, morning, ten, go, LuOne, Kaide, Plaza, Hippocampus, Photo Studio, take pictures]. When the click position falls between "morning" and "up" after the physical coordinate conversion, the cursor will finally be inserted at the end of "morning", between "morning" and "ten". In this scheme, whether the specific cursor appears at the head or end of the word depends on the click position and the length of the word. If the click position is about a quarter of the length of the word, the cursor appears at the beginning of the word, otherwise, it appears at the end of the word.

[0048] Figure 2 The following is a schematic diagram of an example of the cursor display position when two fingers are dragged in the prior art. Figure 2 As shown, in the case of two-finger dragging, the user touches the screen with two fingers to enter the cursor dragging mode. The user can then move the cursor by dragging one finger on the screen (one finger can be released or one finger is sufficient), and release the finger to confirm the last position of the cursor, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 shown.

[0049] In this solution, a long string of numbers will be recognized as a whole word, and the cursor will appear at the beginning and end of the number after the user clicks on the number, such as Figure 3 As shown in the figure, when the user clicks in the middle of a long string of numbers, the cursor is finally inserted at the end of the long string of numbers, which makes it impossible for the user to modify the number in the middle of the long string of numbers by clicking to insert the cursor in the middle of the number. At this time, the user can only move the cursor to the desired position by long pressing to call the magnifying glass or dragging the cursor with two fingers, which increases the user's operation workload. Figure 3 A schematic diagram of another example of a click position and a cursor insertion position provided in the prior art.

[0050] In addition, in the above solution, when the user adds a pair of symbols to the text that has been entered, the user needs to insert the cursor twice, one at the position corresponding to the left half of the pair of symbols and the other at the position corresponding to the right half of the pair of symbols. However, due to the result of word-granular text segmentation, it is often easy to insert the left half of the symbol, but difficult to insert the right half of the symbol. Figure 4As shown, "My favorite novel is *Tian Long Ba Bu*" will be split into [I, most, like, of, novel, is, Tian Long, Ba, Bu]. When the user clicks near "Bu", the cursor is likely to land in front of "Bu", making it difficult to insert the cursor when the user inputs the right angle bracket of the book title. Figure 4 A schematic diagram showing another example of the click position and the cursor insertion position provided by the existing related technology.

[0051] Furthermore, when the user needs to modify the number and format of the article subtitle, it involves multiple single clicks of the cursor for insertion. However, the size of a single punctuation mark is much smaller than the finger width, and a single click is likely to cause the cursor to be inserted incorrectly. In the case where the user has multiple requirements for single-click insertion of the cursor, the experience is poor. Figure 5 A schematic diagram showing an example of the cursor insertion position when modifying the subtitle provided by the existing related technology, as Figure 5 shown, when the user wants to delete the right parenthesis for each subtitle number, the cursor needs to be inserted three times between the right parenthesis and the dot. Since the interval between the right parenthesis and the dot is very small, it is difficult to insert the cursor at this position.

[0052] In another solution provided by the existing related technology, the interaction between the user and the cursor is divided into two types: single-finger click insertion and single-finger drag.

[0053] In the case of single-finger click insertion, first, after calculating the physical coordinates touched by the user on the screen, the cursor is directly inserted at the corresponding position. As Figure 6 shown, "Go to the海马体照相馆 at LuOne Capital Mall to take pictures at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning", when the click position falls between "早" and "上" after being converted by the physical coordinates, the cursor will be directly inserted between "早" and "上". Figure 6 A schematic diagram showing another example of the click position and the cursor insertion position provided by the existing related technology.

[0054] In the case of single-finger drag, the user clicks on the circle below the cursor with a single finger to enter the cursor drag mode. Subsequently, the user can move the cursor by dragging the finger on the screen and release the finger to confirm the final position of the cursor, as Figure 7 shown, Figure 7 A schematic diagram showing another example of the cursor display position during two-finger drag provided by the existing related technology.

[0055] However, in this solution, although the cursor can be inserted arbitrarily between long strings of numbers, since the finger width is often larger than the digital characters, the error rate is extremely high. Especially in the high-frequency scenario where the user wants to insert the cursor at the beginning or end of the number, it is easy to misinsert the cursor in the middle of the number, as Figure 8 shown, Figure 8 A schematic diagram showing another example of the click position and the cursor insertion position provided by the existing technology.

[0056] In addition, in this solution, when the user adds a paired symbol to the text that has already been entered, the left and right paired symbols will appear together after the user enters the left half of the paired symbol, and the cursor will be placed between the left and right symbols, such as Fig. 9 As shown, Fig. 9 The schematic diagram of an example of the cursor display position in the prior art. In this case, in order to insert the right half symbol in the correct place, the user needs to first move the cursor rightward once to delete the current right half symbol, and click the position to be inserted of the right half symbol to insert the right half symbol.

[0057] Based on the above problems, an embodiment of the present application provides a cursor insertion method. The embodiment of the present application aims to propose interactive improvements for three scenarios: inserting a cursor into a long string of numbers, inserting a cursor when inputting paired symbols, and multiple cursor insertions caused by modifying the subheading number content format. By using the current mature natural language processing algorithm, intelligence is introduced into the text control to help users insert the cursor more accurately, so as to reduce the number of times the user clicks to insert the cursor or eliminate the need for the user to long press and drag the cursor.

[0058] The cursor insertion method provided in the embodiments of the present application can be applied to electronic devices, wherein the above-mentioned electronic devices can be smart phones, tablet computers, wearable devices, vehicle-mounted devices, augmented reality (AR) / virtual reality (VR) devices, laptop computers, ultra-mobile personal computers (UMPC), netbooks or personal digital assistants (PDA) and other devices; the embodiments of the present application do not impose any restrictions on the specific types of electronic devices.

[0063] The processor 110 may also be provided with a memory for storing instructions and data. In some embodiments, the memory in the processor 110 is a cache memory. The memory may store instructions or data that the processor 110 has just used or cyclically used. If the processor 110 needs to use the instruction or data again, it may be directly called from the memory.

In other embodiments of the present application, the electronic device 100 may also adopt different interface connection methods in the above embodiments, or a combination of multiple interface connection methods.

[0066] The charging management module 140 is used to receive charging input from a charger. The charger may be a wireless charger or a wired charger.

In some wireless charging embodiments, the charging management module 140 may receive wireless charging input through a wireless charging coil of the electronic device 100. While the charging management module 140 is charging the battery 142, it may also power the electronic device 100 through the power management module 141.

[0068] The wireless communication function of the electronic device 100 can be implemented through the antenna 1, the antenna 2, the mobile communication module 150, the wireless communication module 160, the modem processor and the baseband processor.

[0069] Antenna 1 and antenna 2 are used to transmit and receive electromagnetic wave signals. Each antenna in electronic device 100 can be used to cover a single or multiple communication frequency bands. Different antennas can also be reused to improve the utilization of antennas. For example, antenna 1 can be reused as a diversity antenna for a wireless local area network. In some other embodiments, the antenna can be used in combination with a tuning switch.

In some embodiments, at least some of the functional modules of the mobile communication module 150 can be set in the same device as at least some of the modules of the processor 110.

[0071] The modem processor may include a modulator and a demodulator. Among them, the modulator is used to modulate the low-frequency baseband signal to be sent into a medium-high frequency signal. The demodulator is used to demodulate the received electromagnetic wave signal into a low-frequency baseband signal. The demodulator then transmits the demodulated low-frequency baseband signal to the baseband processor for processing. After the low-frequency baseband signal is processed by the baseband processor, it is passed to the application processor. The application processor outputs a sound signal through an audio device (not limited to a speaker 170A, a receiver 170B, etc.), or displays an image or video through a display screen 194. In some embodiments, the modem processor may be an independent device. In other embodiments, the modem processor may be independent of the processor 110 and be set in the same device as the mobile communication module 150 or other functional modules.

[0073] In some embodiments, the antenna 1 of the electronic device 100 is coupled to the mobile communication module 150, and the antenna 2 is coupled to the wireless communication module 160, so that the electronic device 100 can communicate with the network and other devices through wireless communication technology.

[0076] The electronic device 100 can realize the shooting function through ISP, camera 193, video codec, GPU, display screen 194 and application processor.

[0077] ISP is used to process the data fed back by camera 193. For example, when taking a photo, the shutter is opened, and the light is transmitted to the camera photosensitive element through the lens. The light signal is converted into an electrical signal, and the camera photosensitive element transmits the electrical signal to ISP for processing and converts it into an image visible to the naked eye. ISP can also perform algorithm optimization on the noise, brightness, and skin color of the image. ISP can also optimize the exposure, color temperature and other parameters of the shooting scene. In some embodiments, ISP can be set in camera 193.

[0078] The camera 193 is used to capture still images or videos. The object generates an optical image through the lens and projects it onto the photosensitive element. The photosensitive element can be a charge coupled device (CCD) or a complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) phototransistor. The photosensitive element converts the optical signal into an electrical signal, and then passes the electrical signal to the ISP to be converted into a digital image signal. The ISP outputs the digital image signal to the DSP for processing. The DSP converts the digital image signal into an image signal in a standard RGB, YUV or other format. In some embodiments, the electronic device 100 may include 1 or N cameras 193, where N is a positive integer greater than 1.

[0079] The digital signal processor is used to process digital signals, and can process not only digital image signals but also other digital signals. For example, when the electronic device 100 is selecting a frequency point, the digital signal processor is used to perform Fourier transform on the frequency point energy.

[0080] Video codecs are used to compress or decompress digital videos. The electronic device 100 may support one or more video codecs. Thus, the electronic device 100 may play or record videos in a variety of coding formats, such as Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) 1, MPEG2, MPEG3, MPEG4, etc.

[0081] NPU is a neural network (NN) computing processor.

Through NPU, applications such as intelligent cognition of electronic device 100 can be realized, such as image recognition, face recognition, voice recognition, text understanding, etc.

[0082] The external memory interface 120 can be used to connect an external memory card, such as a Micro SD card, to expand the storage capacity of the electronic device 100. The external memory card communicates with the processor 110 through the external memory interface 120 to implement a data storage function, such as storing music, video and other files in the external memory card.

[0083] The internal memory 121 can be used to store computer executable program codes, which include instructions. The internal memory 121 may include a program storage area and a data storage area. Among them, the program storage area may store an operating system, an application required for at least one function (such as a sound playback function, an image playback function, etc.), etc. The data storage area may store data created during the use of the electronic device 100 (such as audio data, a phone book, etc.), etc. In addition, the internal memory 121 may include a high-speed random access memory, and may also include a non-volatile memory, such as at least one disk storage device, a flash memory device, a universal flash storage (UFS), etc. The processor 110 executes various functional applications and data processing of the electronic device 100 by running instructions stored in the internal memory 121, and / or instructions stored in a memory provided in the processor.

[0084] The electronic device 100 can implement audio functions such as music playing and recording through the audio module 170, the speaker 170A, the receiver 170B, the microphone 170C, the headphone jack 170D, and the application processor.

[0085] The audio module 170 is used to convert digital audio information into analog audio signal output, and is also used to convert analog audio input into digital audio signals. The audio module 170 can also be used to encode and decode audio signals. In some embodiments, the audio module 170 can be arranged in the processor 110, or some functional modules of the audio module 170 can be arranged in the processor 110.

[0086] The speaker 170A, also called a "speaker", is used to convert an audio electrical signal into a sound signal. The electronic device 100 can listen to music or listen to a hands-free call through the speaker 170A.

[0087] The receiver 170B, also called a "earpiece", is used to convert audio electrical signals into sound signals. When the electronic device 100 receives a call or voice message, the voice can be received by placing the receiver 170B close to the human ear.

[0088] Microphone 170C, also called "microphone" or "microphone", is used to convert sound signals into electrical signals. When making a call or sending a voice message, the user can speak by putting their mouth close to microphone 170C to input the sound signal into microphone 170C. The electronic device 100 can be provided with at least one microphone 170C. In other embodiments, the electronic device 100 can be provided with two microphones 170C, which can not only collect sound signals but also realize noise reduction function.

For example, touch operations acting on different applications (such as taking pictures, audio playback, etc.) can correspond to different vibration feedback effects. For touch operations acting on different areas of the display screen 194, motor 191 can also correspond to different vibration feedback effects. Different application scenarios (for example: time reminders, receiving messages, alarm clocks, games, etc.) can also correspond to different vibration feedback effects. The touch vibration feedback effect can also support customization.

[0092] The indicator 192 may be an indicator light, which may be used to indicate the charging status, power changes, messages, missed calls, notifications, etc.

[0093] The SIM card interface 195 is used to connect a SIM card.

[0094] For ease of understanding, the following embodiments of the present application will be described in detail with Fig.10 Taking the electronic device with the structure shown as an example, the cursor insertion method provided in the embodiment of the present application is specifically described in combination with the accompanying drawings and application scenarios.

[0095] The cursor insertion method provided in the embodiment of the present application is suitable for editing text in a system input control using an electronic device 100 with a touch-sensitive display screen, and is combined with the existing cursor single-click insertion interaction to further enhance the user experience in the cursor insertion scenarios shown in Table 1.

[0096] Table 1

[0097]

[0098] Fig.11 A flowchart of a cursor insertion method provided by an embodiment of the present application is as follows: Fig.11 As shown, the above cursor insertion method may include:

[0099] Step 1101: the electronic device 100 obtains the first click position of the user in the text input control in response to the first click operation of the user in the text input control.

[0100] Among them, the input control is a control that allows the user to input information. As the name implies, the text input control can be a control for the user to input text. For example, the text input control can include a control used by the user to input text in a "memo" or a control used by the user to input text in a dialog box of an instant messaging tool.

[0101] Step 1102 : The electronic device 100 determines an initial cursor position in the current display interface of the electronic device 100 according to the first click position.

[0102] Step 1103: when the initial position of the cursor is a long string of numbers, the electronic device 100 obtains the text source of the long string of numbers.

[0103] Step 1104 , the electronic device 100 determines the cursor insertion position according to the text source of the long string of numbers and the initial cursor position.

[0104] Step 1105: The electronic device 100 displays a cursor at the above cursor insertion position.

[0105] In this embodiment, after obtaining the first click position of the user in the text input control, the initial cursor position is determined according to the first click position. When the initial cursor position is a long string of numbers, the electronic device 100 obtains the text source of the long string of numbers, and determines the final cursor insertion position according to the text source of the long string of numbers and the initial cursor position. In this embodiment, the sources of the long string of numbers are divided into three categories, namely, long strings of numbers input by the user, optical character recognition, and long strings of numbers copied by the user. The following takes text input in "Memo" as an example to explain the cursor insertion position in a long string of numbers.

[0106] In one implementation, when the long string of numbers is a long string of numbers input by the user, the electronic device 100 can determine the cursor insertion position as the starting position or the ending position of the long string of numbers according to the initial position of the cursor. Specifically, for the long string of numbers input by the user, the user generally corrects the error during the input process, so the probability of the user inserting the cursor into a long string of numbers that has been input is small. Therefore, in this implementation, when the long string of numbers is a long string of numbers input by the user, the electronic device 100 can determine the cursor insertion position as the two ends of the long string of numbers according to the relative position of the initial position of the cursor and the long string of numbers. Fig.12 A schematic diagram of a cursor at the insertion position of a long string of numbers provided in one embodiment of the present application, such as Fig.12 As shown, when the cursor is at the initial position (i.e. Fig.12 When the cursor is initially located in the first half of the long string of numbers, the cursor is initially located in the first half of the long string of numbers, the cursor is initially located in the first half of the long string of numbers.

[0107] In another implementation, when the text source of a long string of numbers is optical character recognition, if the initial cursor position is not in the head area and the tail area of ​​the long string of numbers, the electronic device 100 determines the cursor insertion position as the initial cursor position; or, when the text source of the long string of numbers is optical character recognition, if the initial cursor position is located in the head area of ​​the long string of numbers, the electronic device 100 determines the cursor insertion position as the starting position of the long string of numbers; if the initial cursor position is located in the tail area of ​​the long string of numbers, the electronic device 100 determines the cursor insertion position as the ending position of the long string of numbers. Fig.13 A schematic diagram of a cursor at the insertion position of a long string of numbers provided in another embodiment of the present application, such as Fig.13 As shown in the figure, when the text source of a long string of numbers is optical character recognition (OCR), due to the limited accuracy of OCR recognition, the result is often noisy and requires the user to actively correct it. Therefore, when the user clicks at this time, the cursor will be directly inserted into the corresponding number, such as Fig.13 However, when the user clicks at the beginning or end of a long string of numbers or near the beginning or end (e.g., the first two numbers or the last two numbers), the user's intention is often to insert the cursor before or after the long string of numbers. At this time, the electronic device 100 will directly place the cursor at the beginning or end of the long string of numbers to avoid incorrect insertion due to small digits. Fig.13 As shown in the middle right picture.

[0108] In another implementation, when the long string of numbers is a long string of numbers copied by the user, the electronic device 100 can determine the cursor insertion position as the starting position or the ending position of the long string of numbers according to the initial position of the cursor. In some examples, when the long string of numbers is a long string of numbers copied by the user, after the electronic device 100 displays the cursor at the cursor insertion position, the electronic device 100 can also respond to the user's second click operation in the text input control to obtain the user's second click position in the text input control. If the distance between the second click position and the first click position is less than or equal to the distance threshold, and the difference between the occurrence time of the second click operation and the occurrence time of the first click operation is less than or equal to the duration threshold, then when the second click position is not in the head area and the tail area of ​​the long string of numbers, the position where the cursor is inserted again is determined to be the second click position; when the second click position is located in the head area of ​​the long string of numbers, the position where the cursor is inserted again is determined to be the starting position of the long string of numbers; when the second click position is located in the tail area of ​​the long string of numbers, the position where the cursor is inserted again is determined to be the ending position of the long string of numbers; then, the electronic device 100 displays the cursor at the position where the cursor is inserted again. The sizes of the distance threshold and the duration threshold can be set according to the implementation requirements during specific implementation. This embodiment does not limit the sizes of the distance threshold and the duration threshold.

[0109] That is, for the long string of text copied by the user, the user's need to modify it is not clear, and it is impossible to infer whether the user needs to insert the cursor into the number for editing. In this case, the electronic device 100 first assumes that the user does not need to edit the number, such as Fig.14 As shown in the middle left figure, when the first click position is in the middle of a long string of numbers, the initial cursor position can be Fig.14 The position indicated by the hand in the left figure, at this time, the electronic device 100 can first determine the cursor insertion position as the starting position or the ending position of the long string of numbers according to the initial position of the cursor, for example: Fig.14 In the left figure, the cursor insertion position is the beginning position of the long string of numbers. When the user clicks for the second time at the same or similar position within a short period of time, the electronic device 100 determines that the user needs to insert the cursor in the middle of the long string of numbers. At this time, the electronic device 100 processes the long string of numbers as if the text source is OCR, that is, when the second click position is not in the head area or the tail area of ​​the long string of numbers, the position where the cursor is inserted again is determined to be the second click position. Fig.14 In the right picture, the second click position is the middle of the long string of numbers, so the position where the cursor is inserted again is the second click position. Fig.14A schematic diagram of a cursor at an insertion position of a long string of numbers provided in another embodiment of the present application. In addition, when the second click position is located in the head area of ​​the long string of numbers, the position where the cursor is inserted again is determined to be the starting position of the long string of numbers; when the initial position of the cursor is located in the tail area of ​​the long string of numbers, the position where the cursor is inserted again is determined to be the ending position of the long string of numbers.

[0110] It should be noted that, for the long string of numbers copied by the user, after the electronic device 100 determines that the user needs to insert a cursor in the middle of the long string of numbers, if the user clicks the long string of numbers again, the electronic device 100 will process the long string of numbers as if the text source is OCR. In addition, in this implementation, the first click operation is the first click operation of the user on the text input control, the first click position is the position where the user performs the first click operation, the second click operation is the second click operation of the user on the text input control, and the second click position is the position where the user performs the second click operation.

[0111] In the above-mentioned cursor insertion method, the electronic device 100 obtains the first click position of the user in the text input control in response to the user's first click operation in the text input control, and determines the initial cursor position in the current display interface of the electronic device 100 based on the above-mentioned first click position. When the above-mentioned initial cursor position is a long string of numbers, the electronic device 100 obtains the text source of the long string of numbers, determines the cursor insertion position based on the text source of the above-mentioned long string of numbers and the above-mentioned initial cursor position, and displays the cursor at the above-mentioned cursor insertion position, so that the cursor can be inserted in the long string of numbers according to the different sources of the long string of numbers, which can not only improve the accuracy of the cursor insertion in the long string of numbers, but also reduce the number of operations of the user inserting the cursor in the long string of numbers.

[0112] Fig.15 A flowchart of a cursor insertion method provided in another embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. Fig.15 As shown, this application Fig.11 In the illustrated embodiment, after step 1102, the following may also be included:

[0113] Step 1501: the electronic device 100 displays a cursor at an initial cursor position.

[0114] Step 1502, after the user inputs the left half symbol of the paired symbol at the display position of the cursor, the electronic device 100 performs entity recognition and text analysis on the text at the display position of the cursor, and predicts the position of the right half symbol of the paired symbol in the text.

[0115] Step 1503: display the right half symbol at the predicted position of the right half symbol, and in response to the user's confirmation operation, the electronic device 100 determines to input the right half symbol at the predicted position of the right half symbol; or, display a floating selection box above or below the predicted position of the right half symbol, the floating selection box includes the right half symbol, and in response to the user's selection operation on the floating selection box, the electronic device 100 inputs the right half symbol in the floating selection box selected by the user into the text; or, in response to the user's third click operation on the text input control, the electronic device 100 obtains The user clicks the third position in the above-mentioned text input control, displays a cursor at the above-mentioned third click position, displays a floating selection box according to the display position of the above-mentioned cursor and the predicted position of the right half symbol, and the above-mentioned floating selection box includes the above-mentioned right half symbol. In response to the user's selection operation on the above-mentioned floating selection box, the electronic device 100 inputs the right half symbol in the floating selection box selected by the user into the text; or, displays the predicted position of the right half symbol in the above-mentioned text, and in response to the user's operation on the displayed predicted position of the right half symbol, the electronic device 100 inserts the cursor at the predicted position operated by the above-mentioned user.

[0116] Specifically, in this embodiment, after the user performs the first click operation in the text input control, the electronic device 100 obtains the first click position, and then determines the initial cursor position in the current display interface according to the first click position, and then displays the cursor at the initial cursor position, thereby realizing the input of the cursor in the text after the user's first click. Then, the user can enter the left half symbol of the paired symbol at the cursor displayed by the electronic device 100, and then the electronic device 100 performs entity recognition and text analysis on the text at the display position of the cursor, and predicts the position of the right half symbol in the above-mentioned paired symbol. In this embodiment, the electronic device 100 reduces the number of user operations through 4 kinds of interactions. Among them, interactions one to three are intended to reduce the number of user operations by directly recommending after prediction, and interaction four reduces the number of user operations by more accurately inserting the second cursor.

[0117] Interaction 1: directly recommend the right half symbol at the predicted position of the right half symbol in a font color different from that of the main text (e.g., gray), and the user presses the space bar to confirm the input, thereby inputting the right half symbol at the predicted position of the right half symbol; if the user inputs other characters except the space bar, the electronic device 100 cancels the recommendation. Fig.16 A schematic diagram of interaction when inputting paired symbols is provided for one embodiment of the present application, such as Fig.16As shown, after the user performs a first click operation in the text input control, the electronic device 100 determines the initial cursor position according to the first click position, and then displays the cursor at the initial cursor position. Then the user inputs a left angle bracket at the cursor position, and the electronic device 100 directly recommends a right angle bracket at the predicted position of the right symbol (behind the character "部"). In response to the user's confirmation operation of pressing the space bar, the electronic device 100 inserts the right angle bracket behind the character "部".

[0118] Interaction Two: Display a floating selection box above or below the predicted position of the right symbol. The floating selection box includes the right symbol. In response to the user's selection operation on the floating selection box, input the right symbol in the floating selection box selected by the user into the above text. See Fig.17 , Fig.17 which is an interaction schematic diagram for inputting paired symbols provided by another embodiment of this application. Fig.17 In, after the user inputs a left angle bracket, the electronic device 100 predicts three possible positions where the right angle bracket may appear, which are respectively behind the characters "龙", "部", and "册". The electronic device 100 displays three floating selection boxes respectively above and to the right of these three characters. Each floating selection box includes a right angle bracket. After the user selects a floating selection box, the electronic device 100 can input the right angle bracket in the floating selection box selected by the user into the above text. For example, assuming the user selects the floating selection box above and to the right of the character "部", the electronic device 100 inserts the right angle bracket in the floating selection box above and to the right of the character "部" behind the character "部".

[0119] Interaction Three: In response to the user's third click operation in the above text input control, the electronic device 100 obtains the third click position of the user in the text input control, displays the cursor at the third click position, and displays a floating selection box according to the display position of the cursor and the predicted position of the right symbol. The floating selection box includes the above right symbol. In response to the user's selection operation on the floating selection box, the electronic device 100 inputs the right symbol in the floating selection box selected by the user into the above text. It can be understood that the third click operation in this embodiment is only for convenience of description, and does not refer to the third click operation of the user in the text input control, but the second click operation after the first click operation. That is to say, the first click operation in step 1101 of this embodiment is the first click operation of the user in the text input control, and the third click operation in step 1503 is the second click operation of the user in the text input control. Fig.18 which is an interaction schematic diagram for inputting paired symbols provided by yet another embodiment of this application, as Fig.18As shown, after the user clicks on the insertion cursor for the first time and enters the left angle bracket of a pair of symbols, and then clicks on the insertion cursor for the second time, the electronic device 100 can display a floating selection box at the predicted position closest to the cursor. Fig.18 In Fig.18 , the cursor inserted by the second click is behind the character "八", so the electronic device 100 displays a floating selection box at the predicted position closest to the cursor, that is, above and to the right of the character "部". The above floating selection box includes the right angle bracket of the pair of symbols. After the user selects the above floating selection box, the electronic device 100 enters the right angle bracket in the floating selection box selected by the user behind the character "部".

[0120] Interaction Four: After the user enters the left half of a pair of symbols, the predicted positions of all the right halves of the symbols are displayed in the text. In response to the user's operation on the predicted positions of the right halves of the symbols displayed, the electronic device 100 inserts a cursor at the predicted position of the above user operation. Fig.19 This is an interaction schematic diagram for inputting paired symbols provided by another embodiment of the present application. As Fig.19 shown in the left figure of Fig.19 , after the user enters the left angle bracket of a pair of symbols behind the character "是", the electronic device 100 displays the predicted positions of all the right angle brackets of the pair of symbols, as Fig.19 shown by the dots in the right figure. At this time, the user can directly insert the cursor at the predicted position by simply clicking on the predicted position or a character to the left or right of the predicted position, which can facilitate the user to enter the right angle bracket at the position of the inserted cursor subsequently. Fig.19 In the right figure, the user clicks on the character "第" to the right of the predicted position. In response to the user's operation, the electronic device 100 inserts a cursor at the predicted position to the left of the character "第", which can facilitate the user to enter the right angle bracket to the left of the character "第" subsequently.

[0121] In this embodiment, after the user enters the left half of a pair of symbols, the position of the right half of the symbol in the text is predicted, which can facilitate the user to accurately insert the right half of the symbol at the predicted position and reduce the number of user operations.

[0122] Fig. 20 This is a flowchart of a cursor insertion method provided by another embodiment of the present application. As Fig. 20 shown, in the embodiment shown in the present application Fig.11 after step 1102, it may further include:

[0123] Step 2001, the electronic device 100 displays a cursor at the initial position of the above cursor.

[0124] Step 2002, after the user adds or modifies a subtitle at the display position of the above cursor, the electronic device 100 performs text analysis on the text at the display position of the above cursor and predicts the position of the subtitle in the above text.

[0125] Step 2003, the electronic device 100 displays a subtitle at the predicted position of the above-mentioned subtitle, the format of the displayed subtitle is the same as the format of the subtitle added or modified by the user, and in response to the user's confirmation operation, determines to input the displayed subtitle at the predicted position of the above-mentioned subtitle; or, the electronic device 100 displays a floating selection box above or below the predicted position of the above-mentioned subtitle, the above-mentioned floating selection box includes a subtitle to be input, the format of the above-mentioned subtitle to be input is the same as the format of the subtitle added or modified by the user, and in response to the user's operation on the floating selection box, the subtitle to be input in the above-mentioned floating selection box is input at the predicted position of the above-mentioned subtitle; or, the electronic device 100 displays the predicted position of the above-mentioned subtitle in the above-mentioned text, and in response to the user's operation on the predicted position of the displayed subtitle, inserts the cursor at the predicted position operated by the user.

[0126] Specifically, in this embodiment, after the user performs the first click operation in the text input control, the electronic device 100 obtains the first click position, and then determines the initial position of the cursor in the current display interface according to the first click position, and then displays the cursor at the initial position of the cursor, thereby realizing the input of the cursor in the text after the user clicks for the first time. After the user adds or modifies a subtitle at the display position of the above-mentioned cursor, the electronic device 100 performs text analysis on the text at the display position of the above-mentioned cursor to predict the position of the subtitle in the above-mentioned text. Then, the electronic device 100 reduces the number of user operations through 3 kinds of interactions. Among them, interaction one and interaction two are intended to reduce the number of user operations by predicting direct recommendations, and interaction three reduces the number of user operations by more accurately inserting the second cursor.

[0127] Interaction 1: Recommend changes corresponding to the current subtitle in the predicted position of the subtitle in a font color different from that of the main text (e.g. gray). If there is no operation for a long time, the input is defaulted, or the user can confirm the input by double-clicking the spacebar for a short time. If the user enters other characters, the recommendation is canceled. Fig.21 The interactive diagram of inputting a subtitle according to an embodiment of the present application is provided. After the user performs a first click operation in the text input control, the electronic device 100 determines the initial cursor position according to the first click position, and then displays the cursor at the initial cursor position. Then, as shown in FIG. Fig.21As shown in the left figure, there were originally no subtitles in front of the text "Subtitle 1", "Subtitle 2" and "Subtitle 3". The user inputs "1)." at the cursor display position, and the electronic device 100 displays "2)." and "3)." in front of the text "Subtitle 2" and "Subtitle 3", respectively. That is, the electronic device 100 displays the subtitles at the predicted positions of the subtitles, and the format of the displayed subtitles is the same as the format of the subtitles newly added or modified by the user. In this way, in response to the user's short double-click operation, the electronic device 100 inputs "2)." and "3)." in front of the text "Subtitle 2" and "Subtitle 3".

[0128] Likewise, Fig.21 As shown in the right figure, in front of the text "Subtitle 1", "Subtitle 2" and "Subtitle 3", the original subtitles are "1)", "2)" and "3)" respectively. After the electronic device 100 displays the cursor at the initial cursor position, the user adds "." after "1)", so the electronic device 100 displays "." after "2)" and "3)" respectively. In this way, in response to the user's short double-click operation, the electronic device 100 enters "." after "2)" and "3)".

[0129] Interaction 2: The electronic device 100 displays a floating selection box above or below the predicted position of the subtitle, and the floating selection box includes a subtitle to be input. The format of the subtitle to be input is the same as the format of the subtitle added or modified by the user. In response to the user's operation on the floating selection box, the subtitle to be input in the floating selection box is input at the predicted position of the subtitle. Fig. 22 This is a schematic diagram of an interaction for inputting a subtitle provided by another embodiment of the present application. After the user performs a first click operation in the text input control, the electronic device 100 determines the initial cursor position according to the first click position, and then displays the cursor at the initial cursor position. Then, as shown in FIG. Fig. 22 As shown in the left figure, there were originally no subtitles in front of the text "Subtitle 1", "Subtitle 2" and "Subtitle 3". The user inputs "1)." at the cursor display position, and the electronic device 100 displays floating selection boxes in front of and above the text "Subtitle 2" and "Subtitle 3", and displays "2)." and "3)." in the floating selection boxes. In this way, in response to the user's single-click operation on the above-mentioned floating selection boxes, the electronic device 100 inputs "2)." and "3)." in front of the text "Subtitle 2" and "Subtitle 3".

[0130] Likewise, Fig. 22As shown in the right figure, in front of the text "Sub-title 1", "Sub-title 2" and "Sub-title 3", the original sub-titles are "1)", "2)" and "3)" respectively.
