A mobile communication device having a user interface for invoking an text editing command is provided. The interface comprises a reduced set of commands which is accessed by actuating an input device on the mobile communication device, the reduced set of commands comprising a set of context-sensitive commands derived from a full-function set of commands associated with a text-based application. The input device may be a dedicated input device, such as a trackball, for accessing the set of context-sensitive commands.

A font control application detects a user selection of text being edited in a text-editing application. In response to a single user command, the font control application presents a font preview menu including the selected text automatically rendered multiple times in different fonts. In response to receiving a user selection of one rendition of the selected text from the font preview menu, the font control application instructs the text-editing application to change a font of the selected text to the font of the selected rendition.

The present invention is a system of integrated, computer-based processes for monolingual information development. and multilingual translation. An interactive text editor enforces lexical and grammatical constraints on a natural language subset used by the authors to create their text, which they help disambiguate to ensure translatability. The resulting translatable source language text undergoes machine translation into any one of a set of target languages, without the translated text requiring any postediting.

A speech processing engine of an HSC device transcribes user utterance input and displays resulting text on a microdisplay. The speech processing engine further provides to the user text editing functions and auto suggestions. The user interface utilizes head gesture control and natural language for text editing. Standard language dictionaries, user's dictionary and user's address book contacts data are utilized.

A dynamically generated small grammar is used for text editing using voice commands in a hand-held electronic device where memory requirements do not allow a large grammar to be used. However, the text is dictated using a large grammar, which can reside in the electronic device or in a remote site. When an editing session begins, words in the dictated text are added to the small grammar. As such, words to be deleted or replaced can be located, for example. When a voice command calls for a text-modifying word, the text-modifying word is obtained from the small grammar if possible. Otherwise it is obtained from the large grammar. During the editing session, as more text-modifying words are used to modify the text, these words are also added to the small grammar. At the end of the editing session, the dynamically generated part of the small grammar is removed.

Methods and system to enable a user of an input action recognition text input system to edit any incorrectly recognized text without re-locating the text insertion position to the location of the text to be corrected. The System also automatically maintains correct spacing between textual objects when a textual object is replaced with an object for which automatic spacing is generated in a different manner. The System also enables the graphical presentation of menu choices in a manner that facilitates faster and easier selection of a desired choice by performing a selection gesture requiring less precision than directly contacting the sub-region of the menu associated with the desired choice.

A method and apparatus for editing heterogeneous media objects in a digital imaging device having a display screen, where each one of the media objects has one or more media types associated therewith, such as a still image, a sequential image, video, audio, and text. The method aspect of the present invention begins by displaying a representation of each one of the media objects on the display screen to allow a user to randomly select a particular media object to edit. In response to a user pressing a key to edit a selected media object, one or more specialized edit screens is invoked for editing the media types associated with the selected media object. If the media object includes a still or a sequential image, then an image editing screen is invoked. If the media object includes a video clip, then a video editing screen is invoked. If the media object includes an audio clip, then an audio editing screen is invoked. And If the media object includes a text clip, then a text editing screen is invoked.

A method and system for implicitly resolving pointing ambiguities in human-computer interaction by implicitly analyzing user movements of a pointer toward a user targeted object located in an ambiguous multiple object domain and predicting the user targeted object, using different categories of heuristic (statically and/or dynamically learned) measures, such as (i) implicit user pointing gesture measures, (ii) application context, and (iii) number of computer suggestions of each predicted user targeted object. Featured are user pointing gesture measures of (1) speed-accuracy tradeoff, referred to as total movement time (TMT), and, amount of fine tuning (AFT) or tail-length (TL), and, (2) exact pointer position. A particular application context heuristic measure used is referred to as containment hierarchy. The invention is widely applicable to resolving a variety of different types of pointing ambiguities such as composite object types of pointing ambiguities, involving different types of pointing devices, and which are widely applicable to essentially any type of software and/or hardware methodology involving using a pointer, such as in computer aided design (CAD), object based graphical editing, and text editing.

The invention relates to an international multi-language implement method of configuration software. The implement method comprises international multi-language implementation of character strings contained in a configuration tool interface, a product basic information configuration file and configuration logic application. The implement method comprises the following steps of: building the configuration tool interface, the product configuration file and a logic storage file by using a Unicode coding standard; analyzing a software code, the product configuration file and the logic storage file, extracting the character strings to be translated, and storing a character string file in an excel format; storing the character strings translated to a target language; importing translated character string information in the excel file into a multi-language database by a multi-language importing tool; and displaying, operating and storing the corresponding character strings according to the language selected by the user during the tool operation. By the implement method, the international universality and the local capability of the configuration software are improved; and meanwhile, by using the universal excel text to edit, the jobs of typing, editing and verifying the translated character strings and the like are greatly simplified.
