Continuous Slide Gesture for Multi-Item List Selection
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Selecting multiple options from a list in existing systems is cumbersome and inefficient, requiring users to click check boxes one by one, especially when dealing with a large number of options.
Innovation Solution
An information processing method and electronic device that allows multiple data entries to be selected by performing a continuous slide operation on a display interface, determining the selected entries based on a predetermined rule, which simplifies the selection process and improves efficiency.

If users click check boxes one by one to select multiple options, then each selection is precise and clear, but the operation becomes cumbersome and inefficient when dealing with a large number of options
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple individual selection operations into a single continuous slide operation. By detecting a slide gesture that passes through multiple data entries, the system combines what would otherwise require multiple discrete clicks into one unified action, thereby improving selection efficiency while maintaining ease of operation
Solution Approach 2:
The slide operation is segmented into discrete interaction points with individual data entries. As the operating body slides through the list, each data entry passed by the continuous track is independently identified and selected, allowing precise selection of multiple items through a single continuous gesture

AI summary
An information processing method and an electronic device, related to the field of communication, are provided in the application. The method includes: displaying M data entries of a page on a display interface by a display unit, where the page includes N data entries, M≦N; obtaining a continuous track generated by a slide operation by an operating body; determining L data entries from J data entries passed by the continuous track based on a predetermined rule, 1≦J≦N, L≦J; and setting the L data entries into selected states. By the solutions in the application, an operation of selecting multiple data entries is implemented without clicking check boxes one by one by a user, the operation is significantly simplified, and efficiency of a multiple selection is improved.
