This relates generally to electronic devices with touch-sensitive surfaces, including but not limited to electronic devices with touch-sensitive surfaces that detect inputs for manipulating user interfaces.
The use of touch-sensitive surfaces as input devices for computers and other electronic computing devices has increased significantly in recent years. Exemplary touch-sensitive surfaces include touch pads and touch screen displays. Such surfaces are widely used to manipulate user interface objects on a display.
Exemplary manipulations include adjusting the position and/or size of one or more user interface objects or activating buttons or opening files/applications represented by user interface objects, as well as associating metadata with one or more user interface objects or otherwise manipulating user interfaces. Exemplary user interface objects include digital images, video, text, icons, control elements such as buttons and other graphics. A user will, in some circumstances, need to perform such manipulations on user interface objects in a file management program (e.g., Finder from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, California), an image management application (e.g., Aperture or iPhoto from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, California), a digital content (e.g., videos and music) management application (e.g., iTunes from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, California), a drawing application, a presentation application (e.g., Keynote from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, California), a word processing application (e.g., Pages from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, California), a website creation application (e.g., iWeb from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, California), a disk authoring application (e.g., iDVD from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, California), or a spreadsheet application (e.g., Numbers from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, California).
But existing methods for performing these manipulations are cumbersome and inefficient. In addition, existing methods take longer than necessary, thereby wasting energy. This latter consideration is particularly important in battery-operated devices.
Accordingly, there is a need for electronic devices with faster, more efficient methods and interfaces for manipulating user interfaces. Such methods and interfaces optionally complement or replace conventional methods for manipulating user interfaces. Such methods and interfaces reduce the cognitive burden on a user and produce a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated devices, such methods and interfaces conserve power and increase the time between battery charges.
The above deficiencies and other problems associated with user interfaces for electronic devices with touch-sensitive surfaces are reduced or eliminated by the disclosed devices. In some embodiments, the device is a desktop computer. In some embodiments, the device is portable (e.g., a notebook computer, tablet computer, or handheld device). In some embodiments, the device has a touchpad. In some embodiments, the device has a touch-sensitive display (also known as a “touch screen” or “touch screen display”). In some embodiments, the device has a graphical user interface (GUI), one or more processors, memory and one or more modules, programs or sets of instructions stored in the memory for performing multiple functions. In some embodiments, the user interacts with the GUI primarily through finger contacts and gestures on the touch-sensitive surface. In some embodiments, the functions optionally include image editing, drawing, presenting, word processing, website creating, disk authoring, spreadsheet making, game playing, telephoning, video conferencing, e-mailing, instant messaging, workout support, digital photographing, digital videoing, web browsing, digital music playing, and/or digital video playing. Executable instructions for performing these functions are, optionally, included in a non-transitory computer readable storage medium or other computer program product configured for execution by one or more processors.

The method further includes detecting a second movement of the contact across the touch-sensitive surface, the second movement corresponding to reversing the operation on the user interface object, and in response to detecting the second movement, reversing the operation and generating a second tactile output on the touch-sensitive surface, wherein the second tactile output is different from the first tactile output.
In accordance with some embodiments, an electronic device includes a display unit configured to display a user interface object, a touch-sensitive surface unit configured to detect user contacts, and a processing unit coupled to the display unit and the touch-sensitive surface unit. The processing unit is configured to detect a contact on the touch-sensitive surface unit, detect a first movement of the contact across the touch-sensitive surface unit, the first movement corresponding to performing an operation on the user interface object, in response to detecting the first movement; perform the operation and generate a first tactile output on the touch-sensitive surface unit.

For a better understanding of the various described embodiments, reference should be made to the Description of Embodiments below, in conjunction with the following drawings in which like reference numerals refer to corresponding parts throughout the figures.
The methods, devices and GUIs described herein provide visual and/or haptic feedback that makes manipulation of user interface objects more efficient and intuitive for a user. For example, in a system where the clicking action of a trackpad is decoupled from the contact intensity (e.g., contact force, contact pressure, or a substitute therefore) that is needed to reach an activation threshold, the device can generate different tactile outputs (e.g., “different clicks”) for different activation events (e.g., so that clicks that accomplish a particular result are differentiated from clicks that do not produce any result or that accomplish a different result from the particular result). Additionally, tactile outputs can be generated in response to other events that are not related to increasing intensity of a contact, such as generating a tactile output (e.g., a “detent”) when a user interface object is moved to a particular position, boundary or orientation, or when an event occurs at the device.
Additionally, in a system where a trackpad or touch-screen display is sensitive to a range of contact intensity that includes more than one or two specific intensity values (e.g., more than a simple on/off, binary intensity determination), the user interface can provide responses (e.g., visual or tactile cues) that are indicative of the intensity of the contact within the range. In some implementations, a pre-activation-threshold response and/or a post-activation-threshold response to an input are displayed as continuous animations. As one example of such a response, a preview of an operation is displayed in response to detecting an increase in contact intensity that is still below an activation threshold for performing the operation. As another example of such a response, an animation associated with an operation continues even after the activation threshold for the operation has been reached. Both of these examples provide a user with a continuous response to the force or pressure of a user's contact, which provides a user with visual and/or haptic feedback that is richer and more intuitive. More specifically, such continuous force responses give the user the experience of being able to press lightly to preview an operation and/or press deeply to push “past” or “through” a predefined user interface state corresponding to the operation.
Additionally, for a device with a touch-sensitive surface that is sensitive to a range of contact intensity, multiple contact intensity thresholds can be monitored by the device and different functions can be mapped to different contact intensity thresholds. This serves to increase the available “gesture space” providing easy access to advanced features for users who know that increasing the intensity of a contact at or beyond a second “deep press” intensity threshold will cause the device to perform a different operation from an operation that would be performed if the intensity of the contact is between a first “activation” intensity threshold and the second “deep press” intensity threshold. An advantage of assigning additional functionality to a second “deep press” intensity threshold while maintaining familiar functionality at a first “activation” intensity threshold is that inexperienced users who are, in some circumstances, confused by the additional functionality can use the familiar functionality by just applying an intensity up to the first “activation” intensity threshold, whereas more experienced users can take advantage of the additional functionality by applying an intensity at the second “deep press” intensity threshold.
Additionally, for a device with a touch-sensitive surface that is sensitive to a range of contact intensity, the device can provide additional functionality by allowing users to perform complex operations with a single continuous contact. For example, when selecting a group of objects, a user can move a continuous contact around the touch-sensitive surface and can press while dragging (e.g., applying an intensity greater than a “deep press” intensity threshold) to add additional elements to a selection. In this way, a user can intuitively interact with a user interface where pressing harder with a contact causes objects in the user interface to be “stickier.”
A number of different approaches to providing an intuitive user interface on a device where a clicking action is decoupled from the force that is needed to reach an activation threshold and/or the device is sensitive to a wide range of contact intensities are described below. Using one or more of these approaches (optionally in conjunction with each other) helps to provide a user interface that intuitively provides users with additional information and functionality, thereby reducing the user's cognitive burden and improving the human-machine interface. Such improvements in the human-machine interface enable users to use the device faster and more efficiently. For battery-operated devices, these improvements conserve power and increase the time between battery charges. For ease of explanation, systems, methods and user interfaces for including illustrative examples of some of these approaches are described below, as follows:
Reference will now be made in detail to embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. In the following detailed description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the various described embodiments. However, it will be apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art that the various described embodiments may be practiced without these specific details. In other instances, well-known methods, procedures, components, circuits, and networks have not been described in detail so as not to unnecessarily obscure aspects of the embodiments.
It will also be understood that, although the terms first, second, etc. are, in some instances, used herein to describe various elements, these elements should not be limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish one element from another. For example, a first contact could be termed a second contact, and, similarly, a second contact could be termed a first contact, without departing from the scope of the various described embodiments. The first contact and the second contact are both contacts, but they are not the same contact.
The terminology used in the description of the various described embodiments herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting. As used in the description of the various described embodiments and the appended claims, the singular forms “a”, “an” and “the” are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It will also be understood that the term “and/or” as used herein refers to and encompasses any and all possible combinations of one or more of the associated listed items. It will be further understood that the terms “includes,” “including,” “comprises,” and/or “comprising,” when used in this specification, specify the presence of stated features, integers, steps, operations, elements, and/or components, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components, and/or groups thereof.
As used herein, the term “if” is, optionally, construed to mean “when” or “upon” or “in response to determining” or “in response to detecting,” depending on the context. Similarly, the phrase “if it is determined” or “if [a stated condition or event] is detected” is, optionally, construed to mean “upon determining” or “in response to determining” or “upon detecting [the stated condition or event]” or “in response to detecting [the stated condition or event],” depending on the context.
Embodiments of electronic devices, user interfaces for such devices, and associated processes for using such devices are described. In some embodiments, the device is a portable communications device, such as a mobile telephone, that also contains other functions, such as PDA and/or music player functions. Exemplary embodiments of portable multifunction devices include, without limitation, the iPhone®, iPod Touch®, and iPad® devices from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, California Other portable electronic devices, such as laptops or tablet computers with touch-sensitive surfaces (e.g., touch screen displays and/or touch pads), are, optionally, used. It should also be understood that, in some embodiments, the device is not a portable communications device, but is a desktop computer with a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., a touch screen display and/or a touch pad).
In the discussion that follows, an electronic device that includes a display and a touch-sensitive surface is described. It should be understood, however, that the electronic device optionally includes one or more other physical user-interface devices, such as a physical keyboard, a mouse and/or a joystick.
The device typically supports a variety of applications, such as one or more of the following: a drawing application, a presentation application, a word processing application, a website creation application, a disk authoring application, a spreadsheet application, a gaming application, a telephone application, a video conferencing application, an e-mail application, an instant messaging application, a workout support application, a photo management application, a digital camera application, a digital video camera application, a web browsing application, a digital music player application, and/or a digital video player application.
The various applications that are executed on the device optionally use at least one common physical user-interface device, such as the touch-sensitive surface. One or more functions of the touch-sensitive surface as well as corresponding information displayed on the device are, optionally, adjusted and/or varied from one application to the next and/or within a respective application. In this way, a common physical architecture (such as the touch-sensitive surface) of the device optionally supports the variety of applications with user interfaces that are intuitive and transparent to the user.
Attention is now directed toward embodiments of portable devices with touch-sensitive displays.
As used in the specification and claims, the term “intensity” of a contact on a touch-sensitive surface refers to the force or pressure (force per unit area) of a contact (e.g., a finger contact) on the touch sensitive surface, or to a substitute (proxy) for the force or pressure of a contact on the touch sensitive surface. The intensity of a contact has a range of values that includes at least four distinct values and more typically includes hundreds of distinct values (e.g., at least 256). Intensity of a contact is, optionally, determined (or measured) using various approaches and various sensors or combinations of sensors. For example, one or more force sensors underneath or adjacent to the touch-sensitive surface are, optionally, used to measure force at various points on the touch-sensitive surface. In some implementations, force measurements from multiple force sensors are combined (e.g., a weighted average) to determine an estimated force of a contact. Similarly, a pressure-sensitive tip of a stylus is, optionally, used to determine a pressure of the stylus on the touch-sensitive surface. Alternatively, the size of the contact area detected on the touch-sensitive surface and/or changes thereto, the capacitance of the touch-sensitive surface proximate to the contact and/or changes thereto, and/or the resistance of the touch-sensitive surface proximate to the contact and/or changes thereto are, optionally, used as a substitute for the force or pressure of the contact on the touch-sensitive surface. In some implementations, the substitute measurements for contact force or pressure are used directly to determine whether an intensity threshold has been exceeded (e.g., the intensity threshold is described in units corresponding to the substitute measurements). In some implementations, the substitute measurements for contact force or pressure are converted to an estimated force or pressure and the estimated force or pressure is used to determine whether an intensity threshold has been exceeded (e.g., the intensity threshold is a pressure threshold measured in units of pressure).
As used in the specification and claims, the term “tactile output” refers to physical displacement of a device relative to a previous position of the device, physical displacement of a component (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface) of a device relative to another component (e.g., housing) of the device, or displacement of the component relative to a center of mass of the device that will be detected by a user with the user's sense of touch. For example, in situations where the device or the component of the device is in contact with a surface of a user that is sensitive to touch (e.g., a finger, palm, or other part of a user's hand), the tactile output generated by the physical displacement will be interpreted by the user as a tactile sensation corresponding to a perceived change in physical characteristics of the device or the component of the device. For example, movement of a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., a touch-sensitive display or trackpad) is, optionally, interpreted by the user as a “down click” or “up click” of a physical actuator button. In some cases, a user will feel a tactile sensation such as an “down click” or “up click” even when there is no movement of a physical actuator button associated with the touch-sensitive surface that is physically pressed (e.g., displaced) by the user's movements. As another example, movement of the touch-sensitive surface is, optionally, interpreted or sensed by the user as “roughness” of the touch-sensitive surface, even when there is no change in smoothness of the touch-sensitive surface. While such interpretations of touch by a user will be subject to the individualized sensory perceptions of the user, there are many sensory perceptions of touch that are common to a large majority of users. Thus, when a tactile output is described as corresponding to a particular sensory perception of a user (e.g., an “up click,” a “down click,” “roughness”), unless otherwise stated, the generated tactile output corresponds to physical displacement of the device or a component thereof that will generate the described sensory perception for a typical (or average) user.

The other input control devices 116 optionally include physical buttons (e.g., push buttons, rocker buttons, etc.), dials, slider switches, joysticks, click wheels, and so forth. In some alternate embodiments, input controller(s) 160 are, optionally, coupled to any (or none) of the following: a keyboard, infrared port, USB port, and a pointer device such as a mouse. The one or more buttons (e.g., 208,
Touch-sensitive display 112 provides an input interface and an output interface between the device and a user. Display controller 156 receives and/or sends electrical signals from/to touch screen 112. Touch screen 112 displays visual output to the user. The visual output optionally includes graphics, text, icons, video, and any combination thereof (collectively termed “graphics”). In some embodiments, some or all of the visual output corresponds to user-interface objects.
Touch screen 112 has a touch-sensitive surface, sensor or set of sensors that accepts input from the user based on haptic and/or tactile contact. Touch screen 112 and display controller 156 (along with any associated modules and/or sets of instructions in memory 102) detect contact (and any movement or breaking of the contact) on touch screen 112 and converts the detected contact into interaction with user-interface objects (e.g., one or more soft keys, icons, web pages or images) that are displayed on touch screen 112. In an exemplary embodiment, a point of contact between touch screen 112 and the user corresponds to a finger of the user.
Touch screen 112 optionally uses LCD (liquid crystal display) technology, LPD (light emitting polymer display) technology, or LED (light emitting diode) technology, although other display technologies are used in other embodiments. Touch screen 112 and display controller 156 optionally detect contact and any movement or breaking thereof using any of a plurality of touch sensing technologies now known or later developed, including but not limited to capacitive, resistive, infrared, and surface acoustic wave technologies, as well as other proximity sensor arrays or other elements for determining one or more points of contact with touch screen 112. In an exemplary embodiment, projected mutual capacitance sensing technology is used, such as that found in the iPhone®, iPod Touch®, and iPad® from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, California.
Touch screen 112 optionally has a video resolution in excess of 100 dpi. In some embodiments, the touch screen has a video resolution of approximately 160 dpi. The user optionally makes contact with touch screen 112 using any suitable object or appendage, such as a stylus, a finger, and so forth. In some embodiments, the user interface is designed to work primarily with finger-based contacts and gestures, which can be less precise than stylus-based input due to the larger area of contact of a finger on the touch screen. In some embodiments, the device translates the rough finger-based input into a precise pointer/cursor position or command for performing the actions desired by the user.
In some embodiments, in addition to the touch screen, device 100 optionally includes a touchpad (not shown) for activating or deactivating particular functions. In some embodiments, the touchpad is a touch-sensitive area of the device that, unlike the touch screen, does not display visual output. The touchpad is, optionally, a touch-sensitive surface that is separate from touch screen 112 or an extension of the touch-sensitive surface formed by the touch screen.
Device 100 also includes power system 162 for powering the various components. Power system 162 optionally includes a power management system, one or more power sources (e.g., battery, alternating current (AC)), a recharging system, a power failure detection circuit, a power converter or inverter, a power status indicator (e.g., a light-emitting diode (LED)) and any other components associated with the generation, management and distribution of power in portable devices.
Device 100 optionally also includes one or more optical sensors 164.
Device 100 optionally also includes one or more contact intensity sensors 165.
Device 100 optionally also includes one or more proximity sensors 166.

In some embodiments, the software components stored in memory 102 include operating system 126, communication module (or set of instructions) 128, contact/motion module (or set of instructions) 130, graphics module (or set of instructions) 132, text input module (or set of instructions) 134, Global Positioning System (GPS) module (or set of instructions) 135, and applications (or sets of instructions) 136. Furthermore, in some embodiments memory 102 stores device/global internal state 157, as shown in
Operating system 126 (e.g., Darwin, RTXC, LINUX, UNIX, OS X, WINDOWS, or an embedded operating system such as VxWorks) includes various software components and/or drivers for controlling and managing general system tasks (e.g., memory management, storage device control, power management, etc.) and facilitates communication between various hardware and software components.
Communication module 128 facilitates communication with other devices over one or more external ports 124 and also includes various software components for handling data received by RF circuitry 108 and/or external port 124. External port 124 (e.g., Universal Serial Bus (USB), FIREWIRE, etc.) is adapted for coupling directly to other devices or indirectly over a network (e.g., the Internet, wireless LAN, etc.). In some embodiments, the external port is a multi-pin (e.g., 30-pin) connector that is the same as, or similar to and/or compatible with the 30-pin connector used on iPod (trademark of Apple Inc.) devices.
Contact/motion module 130 optionally detects contact with touch screen 112 (in conjunction with display controller 156) and other touch sensitive devices (e.g., a touchpad or physical click wheel). Contact/motion module 130 includes various software components for performing various operations related to detection of contact, such as determining if contact has occurred (e.g., detecting a finger-down event), determining an intensity of the contact (e.g., the force or pressure of the contact or a substitute for the force or pressure of the contact) determining if there is movement of the contact and tracking the movement across the touch-sensitive surface (e.g., detecting one or more finger-dragging events), and determining if the contact has ceased (e.g., detecting a finger-up event or a break in contact). Contact/motion module 130 receives contact data from the touch-sensitive surface. Determining movement of the point of contact, which is represented by a series of contact data, optionally includes determining speed (magnitude), velocity (magnitude and direction), and/or an acceleration (a change in magnitude and/or direction) of the point of contact. These operations are, optionally, applied to single contacts (e.g., one finger contacts) or to multiple simultaneous contacts (e.g., “multitouch”/multiple finger contacts). In some embodiments, contact/motion module 130 and display controller 156 detect contact on a touchpad.
In some embodiments, contact/motion module 130 uses a set of one or more intensity thresholds to determine whether an operation has been performed by a user (e.g., to determine whether a user has “clicked” on an icon). In some embodiments at least a subset of the intensity thresholds are determined in accordance with software parameters (e.g., the intensity thresholds are not determined by the activation thresholds of particular physical actuators and can be adjusted without changing the physical hardware of device 100). For example, a mouse “click” threshold of a trackpad or touch screen display can be set to any of a large range of predefined thresholds values without changing the trackpad or touch screen display hardware. Additionally, in some implementations a user of the device is provided with software settings for adjusting one or more of the set of intensity thresholds (e.g., by adjusting individual intensity thresholds and/or by adjusting a plurality of intensity thresholds at once with a system-level click “intensity” parameter).
Contact/motion module 130 optionally detects a gesture input by a user. Different gestures on the touch-sensitive surface have different contact patterns and intensities. Thus, a gesture is, optionally, detected by detecting a particular contact pattern. For example, detecting a finger tap gesture includes detecting a finger-down event followed by detecting a finger-up (lift off) event at the same position (or substantially the same position) as the finger-down event (e.g., at the position of an icon). As another example, detecting a finger swipe gesture on the touch-sensitive surface includes detecting a finger-down event followed by detecting one or more finger-dragging events, and subsequently followed by detecting a finger-up (lift off) event.
Graphics module 132 includes various known software components for rendering and displaying graphics on touch screen 112 or other display, including components for changing the visual impact (e.g., brightness, transparency, saturation, contrast or other visual property) of graphics that are displayed. As used herein, the term “graphics” includes any object that can be displayed to a user, including without limitation text, web pages, icons (such as user-interface objects including soft keys), digital images, videos, animations and the like.
In some embodiments, graphics module 132 stores data representing graphics to be used. Each graphic is, optionally, assigned a corresponding code. Graphics module 132 receives, from applications etc., one or more codes specifying graphics to be displayed along with, if necessary, coordinate data and other graphic property data, and then generates screen image data to output to display controller 156.
Haptic feedback module 133 includes various software components for generating instructions used by tactile output generator(s) 167 to produce tactile outputs at one or more locations on device 100 in response to user interactions with device 100.

Each of the above identified modules and applications correspond to a set of executable instructions for performing one or more functions described above and the methods described in this application (e.g., the computer-implemented methods and other information processing methods described herein). These modules (i.e., sets of instructions) need not be implemented as separate software programs, procedures or modules, and thus various subsets of these modules are, optionally, combined or otherwise re-arranged in various embodiments. In some embodiments, memory 102 optionally stores a subset of the modules and data structures identified above. Furthermore, memory 102 optionally stores additional modules and data structures not described above.
In some embodiments, device 100 is a device where operation of a predefined set of functions on the device is performed exclusively through a touch screen and/or a touchpad.

The predefined set of functions that are performed exclusively through a touch screen and/or a touchpad optionally include navigation between user interfaces. In some embodiments, the touchpad, when touched by the user, navigates device 100 to a main, home, or root menu from any user interface that is displayed on device 100. In such embodiments, a “menu button” is implemented using a touchpad. In some other embodiments, the menu button is a physical push button or other physical input control device instead of a touchpad.
Event sorter 170 receives event information and determines the application 136-1 and application view 191 of application 136-1 to which to deliver the event information. Event sorter 170 includes event monitor 171 and event dispatcher module 174. In some embodiments, application 136-1 includes application internal state 192, which indicates the current application view(s) displayed on touch sensitive display 112 when the application is active or executing. In some embodiments, device/global internal state 157 is used by event sorter 170 to determine which application(s) is (are) currently active, and application internal state 192 is used by event sorter 170 to determine application views 191 to which to deliver event information.
In some embodiments, application internal state 192 includes additional information, such as one or more of: resume information to be used when application 136-1 resumes execution, user interface state information that indicates information being displayed or that is ready for display by application 136-1, a state queue for enabling the user to go back to a prior state or view of application 136-1, and a redo/undo queue of previous actions taken by the user.
Event monitor 171 receives event information from peripherals interface 118. Event information includes information about a sub-event (e.g., a user touch on touch-sensitive display 112, as part of a multi-touch gesture). Peripherals interface 118 transmits formation it receives from I/O subsystem 106 or a sensor, such as proximity sensor 166, accelerometer(s) 168, and/or microphone 113 (through audio circuitry 110). Information that peripherals interface 118 receives from I/O subsystem 106 includes information from touch-sensitive display 112 or a touch-sensitive surface.
In some embodiments, event monitor 171 sends requests to the peripherals interface 118 at predetermined intervals. In response, peripherals interface 118 transmits event information. In other embodiments, peripheral interface 118 transmits event information only when there is a significant event (e.g., receiving an input above a predetermined noise threshold and/or for more than a predetermined duration).
In some embodiments, event sorter 170 also includes a hit view determination module 172 and/or an active event recognizer determination module 173.
Hit view determination module 172 provides software procedures for determining where a sub-event has taken place within one or more views, when touch sensitive display 112 displays more than one view. Views are made up of controls and other elements that a user can see on the display.
Another aspect of the user interface associated with an application is a set of views, sometimes herein called application views or user interface windows, in which information is displayed and touch-based gestures occur. The application views (of a respective application) in which a touch is detected optionally correspond to programmatic levels within a programmatic or view hierarchy of the application. For example, the lowest level view in which a touch is detected is, optionally, called the hit view, and the set of events that are recognized as proper inputs are, optionally, determined based, at least in part, on the hit view of the initial touch that begins a touch-based gesture.
Hit view determination module 172 receives information related to sub-events of a touch-based gesture. When an application has multiple views organized in a hierarchy, hit view determination module 172 identifies a hit view as the lowest view in the hierarchy which should handle the sub-event. In most circumstances, the hit view is the lowest level view in which an initiating sub-event occurs (i.e., the first sub-event in the sequence of sub-events that form an event or potential event). Once the hit view is identified by the hit view determination module, the hit view typically receives all sub-events related to the same touch or input source for which it was identified as the hit view.
Active event recognizer determination module 173 determines which view or views within a view hierarchy should receive a particular sequence of sub-events. In some embodiments, active event recognizer determination module 173 determines that only the hit view should receive a particular sequence of sub-events. In other embodiments, active event recognizer determination module 173 determines that all views that include the physical location of a sub-event are actively involved views, and therefore determines that all actively involved views should receive a particular sequence of sub-events. In other embodiments, even if touch sub-events were entirely confined to the area associated with one particular view, views higher in the hierarchy would still remain as actively involved views.
Event dispatcher module 174 dispatches the event information to an event recognizer (e.g., event recognizer 180). In embodiments including active event recognizer determination module 173, event dispatcher module 174 delivers the event information to an event recognizer determined by active event recognizer determination module 173. In some embodiments, event dispatcher module 174 stores in an event queue the event information, which is retrieved by a respective event receiver module 182.
In some embodiments, operating system 126 includes event sorter 170. Alternatively, application 136-1 includes event sorter 170. In yet other embodiments, event sorter 170 is a stand-alone module, or a part of another module stored in memory 102, such as contact/motion module 130.
In some embodiments, application 136-1 includes a plurality of event handlers 190 and one or more application views 191, each of which includes instructions for handling touch events that occur within a respective view of the application's user interface. Each application view 191 of the application 136-1 includes one or more event recognizers 180. Typically, a respective application view 191 includes a plurality of event recognizers 180. In other embodiments, one or more of event recognizers 180 are part of a separate module, such as a user interface kit (not shown) or a higher level object from which application 136-1 inherits methods and other properties. In some embodiments, a respective event handler 190 includes one or more of: data updater 176, object updater 177, GUI updater 178, and/or event data 179 received from event sorter 170. Event handler 190 optionally utilizes or calls data updater 176, object updater 177 or GUI updater 178 to update the application internal state 192. Alternatively, one or more of the application views 191 includes one or more respective event handlers 190. Also, in some embodiments, one or more of data updater 176, object updater 177, and GUI updater 178 are included in a respective application view 191.
A respective event recognizer 180 receives event information (e.g., event data 179) from event sorter 170, and identifies an event from the event information. Event recognizer 180 includes event receiver 182 and event comparator 184. In some embodiments, event recognizer 180 also includes at least a subset of: metadata 183, and event delivery instructions 188 (which optionally include sub-event delivery instructions).
Event receiver 182 receives event information from event sorter 170. The event information includes information about a sub-event, for example, a touch or a touch movement. Depending on the sub-event, the event information also includes additional information, such as location of the sub-event. When the sub-event concerns motion of a touch, the event information optionally also includes speed and direction of the sub-event. In some embodiments, events include rotation of the device from one orientation to another (e.g., from a portrait orientation to a landscape orientation, or vice versa), and the event information includes corresponding information about the current orientation (also called device attitude) of the device.
Event comparator 184 compares the event information to predefined event or sub-event definitions and, based on the comparison, determines an event or sub-event, or determines or updates the state of an event or sub-event. In some embodiments, event comparator 184 includes event definitions 186. Event definitions 186 contain definitions of events (e.g., predefined sequences of sub-events), for example, event 1 (187-1), event 2 (187-2), and others. In some embodiments, sub-events in an event 187 include, for example, touch begin, touch end, touch movement, touch cancellation, and multiple touching. In one example, the definition for event 1 (187-1) is a double tap on a displayed object. The double tap, for example, comprises a first touch (touch begin) on the displayed object for a predetermined phase, a first lift-off (touch end) for a predetermined phase, a second touch (touch begin) on the displayed object for a predetermined phase, and a second lift-off (touch end) for a predetermined phase. In another example, the definition for event 2 (187-2) is a dragging on a displayed object. The dragging, for example, comprises a touch (or contact) on the displayed object for a predetermined phase, a movement of the touch across touch-sensitive display 112, and lift-off of the touch (touch end). In some embodiments, the event also includes information for one or more associated event handlers 190.
In some embodiments, event definition 187 includes a definition of an event for a respective user-interface object. In some embodiments, event comparator 184 performs a hit test to determine which user-interface object is associated with a sub-event. For example, in an application view in which three user-interface objects are displayed on touch-sensitive display 112, when a touch is detected on touch-sensitive display 112, event comparator 184 performs a hit test to determine which of the three user-interface objects is associated with the touch (sub-event). If each displayed object is associated with a respective event handler 190, the event comparator uses the result of the hit test to determine which event handler 190 should be activated. For example, event comparator 184 selects an event handler associated with the sub-event and the object triggering the hit test.
In some embodiments, the definition for a respective event 187 also includes delayed actions that delay delivery of the event information until after it has been determined whether the sequence of sub-events does or does not correspond to the event recognizer's event type.
When a respective event recognizer 180 determines that the series of sub-events do not match any of the events in event definitions 186, the respective event recognizer 180 enters an event impossible, event failed, or event ended state, after which it disregards subsequent sub-events of the touch-based gesture. In this situation, other event recognizers, if any, that remain active for the hit view continue to track and process sub-events of an ongoing touch-based gesture.
In some embodiments, a respective event recognizer 180 includes metadata 183 with configurable properties, flags, and/or lists that indicate how the event delivery system should perform sub-event delivery to actively involved event recognizers. In some embodiments, metadata 183 includes configurable properties, flags, and/or lists that indicate how event recognizers interact, or are enabled to interact, with one another. In some embodiments, metadata 183 includes configurable properties, flags, and/or lists that indicate whether sub-events are delivered to varying levels in the view or programmatic hierarchy.
In some embodiments, a respective event recognizer 180 activates event handler 190 associated with an event when one or more particular sub-events of an event are recognized. In some embodiments, a respective event recognizer 180 delivers event information associated with the event to event handler 190. Activating an event handler 190 is distinct from sending (and deferred sending) sub-events to a respective hit view. In some embodiments, event recognizer 180 throws a flag associated with the recognized event, and event handler 190 associated with the flag catches the flag and performs a predefined process.
In some embodiments, event delivery instructions 188 include sub-event delivery instructions that deliver event information about a sub-event without activating an event handler. Instead, the sub-event delivery instructions deliver event information to event handlers associated with the series of sub-events or to actively involved views. Event handlers associated with the series of sub-events or with actively involved views receive the event information and perform a predetermined process.
In some embodiments, data updater 176 creates and updates data used in application 136-1. For example, data updater 176 updates the telephone number used in contacts module 137, or stores a video file used in video player module 145. In some embodiments, object updater 177 creates and updates objects used in application 136-1. For example, object updater 177 creates a new user-interface object or updates the position of a user-interface object. GUI updater 178 updates the GUI. For example, GUI updater 178 prepares display information and sends it to graphics module 132 for display on a touch-sensitive display.
In some embodiments, event handler(s) 190 includes or has access to data updater 176, object updater 177, and GUI updater 178. In some embodiments, data updater 176, object updater 177, and GUI updater 178 are included in a single module of a respective application 136-1 or application view 191. In other embodiments, they are included in two or more software modules.
It shall be understood that the foregoing discussion regarding event handling of user touches on touch-sensitive displays also applies to other forms of user inputs to operate multifunction devices 100 with input-devices, not all of which are initiated on touch screens. For example, mouse movement and mouse button presses, optionally coordinated with single or multiple keyboard presses or holds; contact movements such as taps, drags, scrolls, etc., on touch-pads; pen stylus inputs; movement of the device; oral instructions; detected eye movements; biometric inputs; and/or any combination thereof are optionally utilized as inputs corresponding to sub-events which define an event to be recognized.
Device 100 optionally also includes one or more physical buttons, such as “home” or menu button 204. As described previously, menu button 204 is, optionally, used to navigate to any application 136 in a set of applications that are, optionally executed on device 100. Alternatively, in some embodiments, the menu button is implemented as a soft key in a GUI displayed on touch screen 112.
In one embodiment, device 100 includes touch screen 112, menu button 204, push button 206 for powering the device on/off and locking the device, volume adjustment button(s) 208, Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card slot 210, head set jack 212, and docking/charging external port 124. Push button 206 is, optionally, used to turn the power on/off on the device by depressing the button and holding the button in the depressed state for a predefined time interval; to lock the device by depressing the button and releasing the button before the predefined time interval has elapsed; and/or to unlock the device or initiate an unlock process. In an alternative embodiment, device 100 also accepts verbal input for activation or deactivation of some functions through microphone 113. Device 100 also, optionally, includes one or more contact intensity sensors 165 for detecting intensity of contacts on touch screen 112 and/or one or more tactile output generators 167 for generating tactile outputs for a user of device 100.
Each of the above identified elements in
Attention is now directed towards embodiments of user interfaces (“UI”) that is, optionally, implemented on portable multifunction device 100.
It should be noted that the icon labels illustrated in
Although some of the examples which follow will be given with reference to inputs on touch screen display 112 (where the touch sensitive surface and the display are combined), in some embodiments, the device detects inputs on a touch-sensitive surface that is separate from the display, as shown in
Additionally, while the following examples are given primarily with reference to finger inputs (e.g., finger contacts, finger tap gestures, finger swipe gestures), it should be understood that, in some embodiments, one or more of the finger inputs are replaced with input from another input device (e.g., a mouse based input or stylus input). For example, a swipe gesture is, optionally, replaced with a mouse click (e.g., instead of a contact) followed by movement of the cursor along the path of the swipe (e.g., instead of movement of the contact). As another example, a tap gesture is, optionally, replaced with a mouse click while the cursor is located over the location of the tap gesture (e.g., instead of detection of the contact followed by ceasing to detect the contact). Similarly, when multiple user inputs are simultaneously detected, it should be understood that multiple computer mice are, optionally, used simultaneously, or a mouse and finger contacts are, optionally, used simultaneously.
As used herein, the term “focus selector” refers to an input element that indicates a current part of a user interface with which a user is interacting. In some implementations that include a cursor or other location marker, the cursor acts as a “focus selector,” so that when an input (e.g., a press input) is detected on a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., touchpad 355 in
The user interface figures described below include various intensity diagrams that show the current intensity of the contact on the touch-sensitive surface relative to one or more intensity thresholds (e.g., a contact detection intensity threshold IT0, a light press intensity threshold ITL, a deep press intensity threshold ITD, and/or one or more other intensity thresholds). This intensity diagram is typically not part of the displayed user interface, but is provided to aid in the interpretation of the figures. In some embodiments, the light press intensity threshold corresponds to an intensity at which the device will perform operations typically associated with clicking a button of a physical mouse or a trackpad. In some embodiments, the deep press intensity threshold corresponds to an intensity at which the device will perform operations that are different from operations typically associated with clicking a button of a physical mouse or a trackpad. In some embodiments, when a contact is detected with an intensity below the light press intensity threshold (e.g., and above a nominal contact-detection intensity threshold IT0 below which the contact is no longer detected), the device will move a focus selector in accordance with movement of the contact on the touch-sensitive surface without performing an operation associated with the light press intensity threshold or the deep press intensity threshold. Generally, unless otherwise stated, these intensity thresholds are consistent between different sets of user interface figures. An increase of intensity of the contact from an intensity below the light press intensity threshold ITL to an intensity between the light press intensity threshold ITL and the deep press intensity threshold ITD is sometimes referred to as a “light press” input. An increase of intensity of the contact from an intensity below the deep press intensity threshold ITD to an intensity above the deep press intensity threshold ITD is sometimes referred to as a “deep press” input. An increase of intensity of the contact from an intensity below the contact-detection intensity threshold IT0 to an intensity between the contact-detection intensity threshold IT0 and the light press intensity threshold ITL is sometimes referred to as detecting the contact on the touch-surface. A decrease of intensity of the contact from an intensity above the contact-detection intensity threshold IT0 to an intensity below the contact intensity threshold IT0 is sometimes referred to as detecting liftoff of the contact from the touch-surface. In some embodiments IT0 is zero. In some embodiments IT0 is greater than zero. In some illustrations a shaded circle or oval is used to represent intensity of a contact on the touch-sensitive surface. In some illustrations a circle or oval without shading is used represent a respective contact on the touch-sensitive surface without specifying the intensity of the respective contact.
In some embodiments described herein, one or more operations are performed in response to detecting a gesture that includes a respective press input or in response to detecting the respective press input performed with a respective contact (or a plurality of contacts), where the respective press input is detected based at least in part on detecting an increase in intensity of the contact (or plurality of contacts) above a press-input intensity threshold. In some embodiments, the respective operation is performed in response to detecting the increase in intensity of the respective contact above the press-input intensity threshold (e.g., a “down stroke” of the respective press input). In some embodiments, the press input includes an increase in intensity of the respective contact above the press-input intensity threshold and a subsequent decrease in intensity of the contact below the press-input intensity threshold, and the respective operation is performed in response to detecting the subsequent decrease in intensity of the respective contact below the press-input threshold (e.g., an “up stroke” of the respective press input).
In some embodiments, the device employs intensity hysteresis to avoid accidental inputs sometimes termed “jitter,” where the device defines or selects a hysteresis intensity threshold with a predefined relationship to the press-input intensity threshold (e.g., the hysteresis intensity threshold is X intensity units lower than the press-input intensity threshold or the hysteresis intensity threshold is 75%, 90% or some reasonable proportion of the press-input intensity threshold). Thus, in some embodiments, the press input includes an increase in intensity of the respective contact above the press-input intensity threshold and a subsequent decrease in intensity of the contact below the hysteresis intensity threshold that corresponds to the press-input intensity threshold, and the respective operation is performed in response to detecting the subsequent decrease in intensity of the respective contact below the hysteresis intensity threshold (e.g., an “up stroke” of the respective press input). Similarly, in some embodiments, the press input is detected only when the device detects an increase in intensity of the contact from an intensity at or below the hysteresis intensity threshold to an intensity at or above the press-input intensity threshold and, optionally, a subsequent decrease in intensity of the contact to an intensity at or below the hysteresis intensity, and the respective operation is performed in response to detecting the press input (e.g., the increase in intensity of the contact or the decrease in intensity of the contact, depending on the circumstances).
For ease of explanation, the description of operations performed in response to a press input associated with a press-input intensity threshold or in response to a gesture including the press input are, optionally, triggered in response to detecting either: an increase in intensity of a contact above the press-input intensity threshold, an increase in intensity of a contact from an intensity below the hysteresis intensity threshold to an intensity above the press-input intensity threshold, a decrease in intensity of the contact below the press-input intensity threshold, and/or a decrease in intensity of the contact below the hysteresis intensity threshold corresponding to the press-input intensity threshold. Additionally, in examples where an operation is described as being performed in response to detecting a decrease in intensity of a contact below the press-input intensity threshold, the operation is, optionally, performed in response to detecting a decrease in intensity of the contact below a hysteresis intensity threshold corresponding to, and lower than, the press-input intensity threshold.
Many electronic devices have graphical user interfaces that include user interface objects. There are usually many operations which can be performed on the interface objects. For example, an interface object can be snapped to a guideline or removed from a guideline. Another example would be moving a user interface object (e.g., a file) into or out of a folder. There is often a need to provide efficient and convenient ways for users to receive feedback for operations performed on these user interface objects. The embodiments below improve on existing methods by generating tactile outputs for the user corresponding to the operations performed.
In some embodiments, the device is an electronic device with a separate display (e.g., display 450) and a separate touch-sensitive surface (e.g., touch-sensitive surface 451). In some embodiments, the device is portable multifunction device 100, the display is touch-sensitive display system 112, and the touch-sensitive surface includes tactile output generators 167 on the display (
In some embodiments, the device compares a respective amount of time between movement 10210 in
In some embodiments, another waveform is used to generate tactile outputs corresponding to the different operations described with reference to
As described below, the method 10300 provides an intuitive way to provide tactile feedback for operations performed in a user interface. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user when performing operations in a user interface, thereby creating a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated electronic devices, enabling a user to perform operations in a user interface faster and more efficiently conserves power and increases the time between battery charges.
The device displays (10302) a user interface object.
The device detects (10306) a first movement of the contact across the touch-sensitive surface, where the first movement corresponds to performing an operation on the user interface object. For example,
The device detects (10316) a second movement of the contact across the touch-sensitive surface, where the second movement corresponds to reversing the operation on the user interface object. For example,
In some embodiments or circumstances, the first movement of the contact across the touch-sensitive surface and the second movement of the contact across the touch-sensitive surface are (10318) part of a single continuous gesture performed without detecting a liftoff of the contact from the touch-sensitive surface. In some embodiments, even if there is a pause in movement of the contact, the first movement and the second movement are considered to be part of the same continuous gesture as long as the contact continues to be detected on the touch-sensitive surface. In some embodiments, if the same first and second movement are detected as part of two different gestures (e.g., there is a liftoff of the contact between when the first movement is detected and when the second movement is detected), then the same tactile output is generated in response to both performing the operation and reversing the operation). In some embodiments, if the same first and second movement are detected as part of two different gestures (e.g., there is a liftoff of the contact between when the first movement is detected and when the second movement is detected) then different tactile outputs are still generated in response to both performing the operation and reversing the operation. For example,
In response to detecting (10320) the second movement, the device reverses (10322) the operation. It should be understood that reversing an operation does not necessarily entail performing an exact mirror image of the procedure undertaken to perform the operation. For example, to snap an object to a guide the object is moved to a position within a snapping distance from the guide, while to move an object away from the guide, movement of a contact is detected that corresponds to movement of the object more than an unsnapping distance from the guide, without respect to the particular path taken by the contact or the object.
In some embodiments, performing the operation includes snapping (10324) the user interface object (e.g., a picture, text box, shape or some other moveable user interface object) into a respective object placement guide and reversing the operation includes snapping the user interface object out of the respective object placement guide. In some embodiments, snapping a user interface object into a respective object placement guide includes detecting user-controlled movement of the user interface object within a predefined distance from the respective object placement guide and, in response to detecting the user-controlled movement of the user interface object within the predefined distance of the respective object placement guide, automatically moving (e.g., via device-controlled movement) the respective user interface object adjacent to the respective object placement guide. In some embodiments, once the user interface object has been snapped into a respective object placement guide, subsequent movement of the contact across the touch-sensitive surface does not cause movement of the user interface object until a predefined precondition is met. In particular, in some embodiments, snapping a user interface object out of a respective object placement guide includes detecting movement of a contact that would correspond to user-controlled movement of the user interface object more than a predefined distance away from the respective object placement guide if the object were not snapped to the respective object placement guide and in response to detecting the movement of the contact, automatically moving (e.g., via device-controlled movement) the respective user interface object to a location on the display that is away from the respective object placement guide in accordance with the movement of the contact on the touch-sensitive surface. For example,
In some embodiments, performing the operation includes marking (10326) data corresponding to the user interface object for deletion (e.g., placing an icon corresponding to a file in a trash or recycle folder) and reversing the operation includes unmarking the data corresponding to the user interface object for deletion (e.g., removing/restoring an icon corresponding to a file from a trash or recycle folder).
In some embodiments, the user interface object corresponds to a file, performing the operation includes placing (10328) the file in a directory and reversing the operation includes removing the file from the directory. For example, in some embodiments, performing the operation includes moving a user interface object that is a graphical representation of a file to a location corresponding to a folder icon that represents the directory and reversing the operation includes removing the icon from a graphical representation of the folder/directory.
In some embodiments, the user interface object corresponds to an application, performing the operation includes placing (10330) the user interface object in an application launch region and reversing the operation includes removing the user interface object from the application launch region. Examples of an application launch region include a dock or a quick launch bar.
In response to detecting (10320) the second movement, in addition to reversing the operation, the device generates (10332) a second tactile output on the touch-sensitive surface, where the second tactile output is different from the first tactile output. As a result, the device undoes the previously performed operation. In some embodiments the first tactile output is different from the second tactile output based on differences in amplitudes of the tactile outputs. In some embodiments, the first type of tactile output is generated by movement of the touch-sensitive surface that includes a first dominant movement component. For example, the generated movement corresponds to an initial impulse of the first tactile output, ignoring any unintended resonance. In some embodiments, the second type of tactile output is generated by movement of the touch-sensitive surface that includes a second dominant movement component. For example, the generated movement corresponds to an initial impulse of the second tactile output, ignoring any unintended resonance. In some embodiments, the first dominant movement component and the second dominant movement component have (10334) a same movement profile and different amplitudes. For example, the first dominant movement component and the second dominant movement component have the same movement profile when the first dominant movement component and the second dominant movement component have a same waveform shape, such as square, sine, sawtooth or triangle, and approximately the same period.
In some embodiments the first tactile output is different from the second tactile output based on differences in movement profiles of the tactile outputs. In some embodiments, the first type of tactile output is generated by movement of the touch-sensitive surface that includes a first dominant movement component. For example, the generated movement corresponds to an initial impulse of the first tactile output, ignoring any unintended resonance. In some embodiments, the second type of tactile output is generated by movement of the touch-sensitive surface that includes a second dominant movement component. For example, the generated movement corresponds to an initial impulse of the second tactile output, ignoring any unintended resonance. In some embodiments, the first dominant movement component and the second dominant movement component have (10336) different movement profiles and a same amplitude. For example, the first dominant movement component and the second dominant movement component have different movement profiles when the first dominant movement component and the second dominant movement component have a different waveform shape, such as square, sine, sawtooth or triangle, and/or approximately the same period.

The processing unit 10406 is configured to detect a contact on the touch-sensitive surface unit, detect a first movement of the contact across the touch-sensitive surface unit (e.g., with detecting unit 10408), the first movement corresponding to performing an operation on the user interface object, and in response to detecting the first movement; perform the operation (e.g., with performing unit 10412) and generate a first tactile output on the touch-sensitive surface unit (e.g., with generating unit 10414). The processing unit 10406 is further configured to detect a second movement of the contact across the touch-sensitive surface unit (e.g., with detecting unit 10408), the second movement corresponding to reversing the operation on the user interface object; and in response to detecting the second movement, reverse the operation (e.g., with reversing unit 10416) and generate a second tactile output on the touch-sensitive surface unit (e.g., with generating unit 10414), where the second tactile output is different from the first tactile output.
In some embodiments, the first movement of the contact across the touch-sensitive surface unit and the second movement of the contact across the touch-sensitive surface unit are part of a single continuous gesture performed without detecting a liftoff of the contact from the touch-sensitive surface unit 10404.
In some embodiments, performing the operation (e.g., with the performing unit 10412) includes snapping the user interface object into a respective object placement guide and reversing the operation (e.g., with the reversing unit 10416) includes snapping the user interface object out of the respective object placement guide.
In some embodiments, performing the operation (e.g., with the performing unit 10412) includes marking data corresponding to the user interface object for deletion and reversing the operation (e.g., with reversing unit 10416) includes unmarking the data corresponding to the user interface object for deletion.
In some embodiments, the user interface object corresponds to a file, performing the operation (e.g., with the performing unit 10412) includes placing the file in a directory and reversing the operation (e.g., with the reversing unit 10416) includes removing the file from the directory.
In some embodiments, the user interface object corresponds to an application, performing the operation (e.g., with the performing unit 10412) includes placing the user interface object in an application launch region and reversing the operation (e.g., with the reversing unit 10416) includes removing the user interface object from the application launch region.
In some embodiments, the first tactile output is generated (e.g., with the generating unit 10414) by movement of the touch-sensitive surface unit that includes a first dominant movement component, the second tactile output is generated (e.g., with the generating unit 10414) by movement of the touch-sensitive surface unit that includes a second dominant movement component, and the first dominant movement component and the second dominant movement component have a same movement profile and different amplitudes.
In some embodiments, the first tactile output is generated (e.g., with the generating unit 10414) by movement of the touch-sensitive surface unit that includes a first dominant movement component, the second tactile output is generated (e.g., with the generating unit 10414) by movement of the touch-sensitive surface unit that includes a second dominant movement component, and the first dominant movement component and the second dominant movement component have different movement profiles and a same amplitude.
The operations in the information processing methods described above are, optionally implemented by running one or more functional modules in information processing apparatus such as general purpose processors (e.g., as described above with respect to
The operations described above with reference to
Many electronic devices display user interface objects that have a layer order (e.g., a z-order or front-to-back order of the user interface objects). A user typically interacts with such objects by repositioning them on the display, and overlapping objects are displayed on the display in accordance with their front-to-back order (e.g., an object that is “in front” of another object is displayed where the two objects overlap). In addition to repositioning the objects on the display, a user often wants to change the front-to-back order of the objects on the display. In some methods, changes in the z-order are indicated visually. The embodiments described below improve on these methods by providing for tactile outputs when objects overlap each other and their z-order changes. Thus, the user has tactile as well as visual indication of the change in z-order when the objects overlap, and thus their covering of each other changes with the change in z-order.
In response to the request (e.g., the increase in intensity of contact from an intensity below ITD in

Many electronic devices display user interface objects that have a layer order (e.g., a z-order or front-to-back order of the user interface objects). A user typically interacts with such objects by repositioning them on the display, and overlapping objects are displayed on the display in accordance with their front-to-back order (e.g., an object that is “in front” of another object is displayed where the two objects overlap). In addition to repositioning the objects on the display, a user often wants to change the front-to-back order of the objects on the display.
Thus, when the relative z-order between two objects is changed, a tactile output is generated if the two objects overlap (e.g., 10513 in
In
In some embodiments, the tactile output associated with the move of object 10506-1 below object 10506-2 in the z-order has a wavelength that is determined based on a position of object 10506-2 in the z-order prior to receiving the request to move object 10506-1 below object 10506-2 in the z-order.
In response to the request, object 10506-1 is moved below intervening object 10506-3 (e.g., when contact 10524 reaches an intensity above ITL in
In response to the request, object 10506-1 is moved below object 10506-3 (e.g., when contact 10524 reaches an intensity above ITL in
In some embodiments, the tactile output 10527 associated with the move of object 10506-1 below object 10506-3 (hereinafter “Tactile Output A”) and the tactile output 10528 associated with the move of object 10506-1 below object 10506-2 after moving below object 10506-3 (hereinafter “Tactile Output B”) are different. For example, the dominant movement component for Tactile Output A 10527 optionally has a different wavelength than the dominant movement component for Tactile Output B 10528. In some embodiments, the wavelength for Tactile Output A 10527 is determined based on a position of object 10506-3 in the z-order, and the wavelength for Tactile Output B 10528 is determined based on a position of object 10506-2 in the z-order.
In some embodiments, the wavelength of Tactile Output A 10527 is determined based on a number of user interface objects 10506, that object 10506-1 overlaps, that are between object 10506-1 and object 10506-3 in the z-order. In some embodiments, the wavelength of Tactile Output B 10528 is determined based on a number of user interface objects 10506, that object 10506-1 overlaps, that are between object 10506-1 and object 10506-2 in the z-order.
Object 10506-1 optionally overlaps multiple other user interface objects arranged in a respective z-order sequence, irrespective of whether object 10506-1 overlaps with object 10506-2. Thus, in some embodiments, the z-order includes object 10506-1, the multiple other user interface objects behind object 10506-1, and then object 10506-2. Thus, when object 10506-1 is moved below object 10506-2 in the z-order, in accordance with a request to move object 10506-1 below object 10506-2 in the z-order, object 10506-1 is moved below each of the multiple other user interface objects in sequence before being moved below object 10506-2. For each of the multiple other user interface objects that objects 10506-1 moves below, a tactile output is generated in conjunction with the move of object 10506-1 below the respective user interface object. Thus, as object 10506-1 is moved below the multiple other user interface objects, a sequence of tactile outputs is generated. In some embodiments, the sequence of tactile outputs is generated based on a mathematical progression. For example, each successive tactile output has a wavelength that is double the wavelength of the preceding tactile output. In some other embodiments, the sequence of tactile outputs is generated based on a musical progression. For example, each successive tactile output corresponds to a next note in a predefined musical scale or the same note in a lower octave.
In response to the request, object 10532-1 is moved below object 10532-2 in the z-order, as shown in
In response to the request, object 10532-1 is moved below object 10532-2 in the z-order, as shown in
As described below, the method 10600 provides an intuitive way to indicate changes in the z-order of user interface objects. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user when indicating changes in the z-order of user interface objects, thereby creating a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated electronic devices, enabling a user to perceive changes in the z-order of user interface objects faster and more efficiently conserves power and increases the time between battery charges.
The device displays (10602) a plurality of user interface objects on the display, where the plurality of user interface objects have a z-order, the plurality of user interface objects includes a first user interface object and a second user interface object, and the first user interface object is above the second user interface object in the z-order. Multiple user interface objects, such as objects 10506-1 and 10506-2, or objects 10532-1 and 10532-2, are, optionally, displayed with a z-order, as shown in
While detecting a contact (e.g., a finger contact) on the touch-sensitive surface, the device receives (10604) a request to move the first user interface object below the second user interface object in the z-order. For example, while a contact (e.g., contact 10510,
In some embodiments, receiving the request to move the first user interface object below the second user interface object includes (10606), while a focus selector is over the first user interface object, detecting an increase in intensity of the contact above a respective intensity threshold (e.g., the deep press intensity threshold ITD) Thus, the user is intuitively enabled to press the first user interface object “down” below the second user interface object in the z-order. For example, while contact cursor 10504 is located over object 10506-1, the intensity of contact 10510 (or contact 10512 or 10524 or 10526) is, optionally, increased from an intensity below ITD to an intensity above ITD. In embodiments where the touch-sensitive surface is a touch-sensitive display (e.g., touch-sensitive display 112), receiving the request includes detecting an increase in intensity of the contact (e.g., an increase in intensity of contact 10534 or 10536 above the deep press intensity threshold ITD) while the contact is over the first user object (e.g., object 10532-1).
In some embodiments, receiving the request to move the first user interface object below the second user interface object includes (10608), while displaying a control for changing a z-order of the first user interface object (e.g., a slider or other control that is separate/distinct from the first user interface object that determines a z-order of the first user interface object), detecting an input on the control that corresponds to moving the first user interface object downward in the z-order. The control for changing z-order is, optionally, slider 10514 (
In some embodiments, receiving the request to move the first user interface object below the second user interface object includes (10610), while displaying a control for changing a z-order of the second user interface object (e.g., a slider or other control that is separate/distinct from the second user interface object that determines a z-order of the first user interface object), detecting an input on the control that corresponds to moving the second user interface object upward in the z-order. The control for changing z-order is, optionally, slider 10514 (
In response (10612) to the request, the device moves (10614) the first user interface object below the second user interface object in the z-order. In response to the request, object 10506-1 (or 10532-1) is moved below object 10506-2 (or 10532-2) in the z-order, as shown in
In accordance with a determination that the first user interface object overlaps at least a portion of the second user interface object, the device generates (10616) a tactile output (e.g., 10513 in
In accordance with a determination that the first user interface object does not overlap the second user interface object, forgoes (10620) generating the tactile output associated with moving the first user interface object below the second user interface object. If objects 10506-1 and 10506-2 (or objects 10532-1 and 10532-2) do not overlap, as shown in
In some embodiments, the first user interface object overlaps (10622) at least a portion of the second user interface object when at least a portion of the first user interface object covers at least a portion of the second user interface object. In some embodiments, the first user interface object partially overlaps the second user interface object. In some embodiments, the first user interface object completely overlaps the second user interface object (e.g., the first user interface object covers all of the second user interface object). For example, in
In some embodiments, the plurality of user interface objects includes (10624) an intervening user interface object, and the intervening user interface object has a position in the z-order between the first user interface object and the second user interface object. As shown in
In some embodiments, the first user interface object overlaps (10635) the intervening user interface object and the second user interface object, and in response (10612) to the request to move the first user interface object below the second user interface object in the z-order, the device generates (10636) a first tactile output, on the touch-sensitive surface, associated with moving the first user interface object below the intervening user interface object, prior to moving the first user interface object below the second user interface object in the z-order; and generates (10638) a second tactile output, on the touch-sensitive surface, associated with moving the first user interface object below the second user interface object, wherein the first tactile output is different from the second tactile output. For example, as shown in
In some embodiments, the first tactile output is (10640) generated by movement of the touch-sensitive surface that includes a first dominant movement component (e.g., movement corresponding to an initial impulse of the first tactile output, ignoring any unintended resonance), the second tactile output is generated by movement of the touch-sensitive surface that includes a second dominant movement component (e.g., movement corresponding to an initial impulse of the second tactile output, ignoring any unintended resonance), and the first dominant movement component and the second dominant movement component have different wavelengths (e.g., while maintaining a same movement profile such as a same waveform shape such as square, sine, squine, sawtooth or triangle and/or while maintaining a same amplitude). Tactile Output A 10527 and Tactile Output B 10528 have respective dominant movement components that have different wavelengths. Thus, Tactile Output A 10527 for the move below object 10506-3 and Tactile Output B 10528 for the move below object 10506-2 may feel different to the user.
In some embodiments, the wavelength of the first tactile output is (10642) determined based on a position of the intervening user interface object in the z-order, and the wavelength of the second tactile output is determined based on a position of the second user interface object in the z-order (e.g., the tactile output that is generated when the first user interface object is moved past a respective user interface object is determined based on an absolute position of the respective user interface object in the z-order, which provides feedback to the user as to how far the first user interface object has been pushed down into the z-order). In
In some embodiments, the wavelength of the first tactile output is (10644) determined based on a number of user interface objects that the first user interface object overlaps that are between the first user interface object and the intervening user interface object in the z-order. In
In some embodiments, the wavelength of the second tactile output is (10646) determined based on a number of user interface objects that the first user interface object overlaps that are between the first user interface object and the second user interface object in the z-order (e.g., the tactile output that is generated when the first user interface object is moved past a respective user interface object is determined based on how many other objects are between the first user interface object and the respective object, which provides feedback to the user as to how far the user interface object has been pushed down into a “local” z-order for objects that are in the same general area of the user interface and overlap each other). In
In some embodiments, the first user interface overlaps (10648) a plurality of other user interface objects arranged in a respective z-order sequence and a next tactile output (e.g., a pitch/wavelength/intensity of the next tactile output) corresponding to movement of the first user interface object below a next user interface object in the z-order sequence is based on a mathematical progression from a prior tactile output corresponding to movement of the first user interface object below a prior user interface object in the z-order sequence (e.g., each successive tactile output doubles the wavelength of the prior tactile output).
In some embodiments, the first user interface overlaps (10650) a plurality of other user interface objects arranged in a respective z-order sequence and a next tactile output (e.g., a pitch/wavelength/intensity of the next tactile output) corresponding to movement of the first user interface object below a next user interface object in the z-order sequence is based on a musical progression from a prior tactile output corresponding to movement of the first user interface object below a prior user interface object in the z-order sequence (e.g., each successive tactile output corresponds to a next note in a predefined musical scale or the same note in a lower octave).
For example, in some circumstances, object 10506-1 overlaps multiple other user interface objects arranged in a respective z-order sequence irrespective of whether object 10506-1 overlaps with object 10506-2. Thus, in some embodiments, the z-order includes object 10506-1, the multiple other user interface objects behind object 10506-1, and then object 10506-2. Thus, when object 10506-1 is moved below object 10506-2 in the z-order, in accordance with a request to move object 10506-1 below object 10506-2 in the z-order, object 10506-1 is moved below each of the multiple other user interface objects in z-order sequence before being moved below object 10506-2. In this example, for each of the multiple other user interface objects that objects 10506-1 moves below, a tactile output is generated in conjunction with the move of object 10506-1 below the respective other user interface object. Thus, as object 10506-1 is moved below the multiple other user interface objects, a sequence of tactile outputs is generated. In some embodiments, the sequence of tactile outputs is generated based on a mathematical progression. For example, each successive tactile output has a wavelength that is double the wavelength of the preceding tactile output. In some other embodiments, the sequence of tactile outputs is generated based on a musical progression. For example, each successive tactile output corresponds to a next note in a predefined musical scale or the same note in a lower octave.

The operations described above with reference to
Many electronic devices have graphical user interfaces that display user interface objects that can be manipulated by adjusting one or more associated parameter. For example, a graphical user interface optionally displays one or more user interface object (e.g., an image, media clip, audio clip, shape, application window, folder, menu or status bar) that the user can customize (e.g., enlarge, shrink, crop, rotate, increase volume, decrease volume or otherwise manipulate a visual or audio parameter) through a user interface (e.g., mouse, touch-sensitive surface or keyboard). Due to practical considerations, such as size constraints of an associated display, power constraints of an associated speaker and inherent properties of the user interface object (e.g., size, shape, length and volume), predefined adjustment limits are commonly assigned to these user interface object, limiting the extent to which their properties can be adjusted. Given the complexity of a user interface environment where predefined adjustment limits are applied to user interface objects, there is a need to provide feedback that enables the user to more efficiently and conveniently adjust the properties of these user interface objects with respect to the predefined adjustment limits and alert a user when the predefined adjustment limits have been reached or exceeded.
The embodiments described below provide improved methods and user interfaces for generating feedback to a user navigating a complex user interface. More specifically, these methods and user interfaces provide tactile feedback to the user when an action will result in the adjustment of a user interface object parameter beyond a predefined limit. The tactile feedback warns the user when their action will result in the adjustment of a user interface object parameter beyond a predefined adjustment limit. In this fashion, the methods and user interfaces provided below allow the user to more efficiently discern between allowed, forbidden and non-recommended parameter adjustments by providing tactile feedback, instead of or in addition to audible and/or visual feedback. Some methods for warning a user that a predefined adjustment limit has been exceeded rely on an audible or visual cue. However, there are many situations (e.g., at work, in a theatre an in various social situations) where the volume of an electronic device will be lowered or muted, rendering audible cues ineffective. Advantageously, the methods and user interfaces described below augment or replace audible feedback by providing tactile feedback indicating that a predefined adjustment limit has been or will be exceeded, rendering the warning effective even when the volume of the electronic device has been lowered or muted.
In some embodiments, the device is an electronic device with a separate display (e.g., display 450) and a separate touch-sensitive surface (e.g., touch-sensitive surface 451). In some embodiments, the device is portable multifunction device 100, the display is touch-sensitive display system 112, and the touch-sensitive surface includes tactile output generators 167 on the display (

As described below, the method 10900 provides an intuitive way to provide feedback when an action will result in the adjustment of a parameter beyond a predefined limit. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user when detecting feedback when an action will result in the adjustment of a parameter beyond a predefined limit, thereby creating a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated electronic devices, enabling a user to detect feedback when an action will result in the adjustment of a parameter beyond a predefined limit faster and more efficiently conserves power and increases the time between battery charges.

Many electronic devices have graphical user interfaces that include a representation of a clock. For example, many cellular phones, laptops, and tablets have a representation of a clock prominently displayed on the graphical user interface. There is often a need to provide efficient and convenient ways for users to receive feedback corresponding to the clock. The embodiments below improve on existing methods by generating tactile outputs for the user that correspond to the clock (e.g., a ‘tick tock’ pattern of tactile outputs) indicating that a focus selector is over the representation of the clock and, optionally, providing an indication of the rate at which time is passing.

As described below, the method 11200 provides an intuitive way to provide tactile feedback corresponding to a clock. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user when displaying a clock, thereby creating a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated electronic devices, enabling a user to interact with a clock faster and more efficiently conserves power and increases the time between battery charges.

For example, in some embodiments, the regular pattern of tactile outputs will have a period of one second. In some other embodiments the regular pattern of tactile outputs will have a period of 0.5 seconds, 2 seconds, or other length of time between 0.25 seconds and ten seconds.

In some embodiments, the period of the regular pattern of tactile outputs is not changed based on movement of the focus selector while over the representation of the clock.

The processing unit is further configured to, while providing the tactile feedback, detect movement of the focus selector away from the representation of the clock (e.g., with the detecting unit 11308), and in response to detecting movement of the focus selector away from the representation of the clock, cease to provide the tactile feedback (e.g., with the feedback unit 11312) corresponding to the clock.
In some embodiments, the tactile outputs in the regular pattern of tactile outputs are generated at evenly spaced intervals (e.g., with the generating unit 11314).
In some embodiments, the processing unit 11306 is further configured to, while detecting the focus selector over the representation of the clock (e.g., with detecting unit 11308), detect movement of the focus selector that maintains the focus selector over the representation of the clock (e.g., with the detecting unit 11308), and in response to detecting movement of the focus selector, continue to provide the tactile feedback corresponding to the clock (e.g., with feedback unit 11312) without changing a period of the regular pattern.
In some embodiments, the processing unit 11306 is further configured to, prior to detecting the focus selector over the representation of the clock, display the representation of the clock on the display unit (e.g., with the display enabling unit 11310) without providing the tactile feedback that corresponds to the clock on the touch-sensitive surface unit.
In some embodiments, the regular pattern of tactile outputs on the touch-sensitive surface unit includes an alternating sequence of tactile outputs that have different output characteristics.
In some embodiments, the alternating sequence of tactile outputs includes a first type of tactile output alternating with a second type of tactile output, the first type of tactile output is generated by movement of the touch-sensitive surface unit (e.g., with the generating unit 11314) that includes a first dominant movement component, the second type of tactile output is generated by movement of the touch-sensitive surface unit (e.g., with the generating unit 11314) that includes a second dominant movement component, and the first dominant movement component and the second dominant movement component have a same movement profile and different amplitudes.

Many electronic devices have graphical user interfaces that display application windows showing representations of a piece of music (e.g., a graphical representation of a piece of cover art for an album of the piece of music, a region indicating that a piece of music is being currently being played or notes of a piece of music in a graphical representation of a music score corresponding to a piece of music). For example, a media player application window (e.g., an audio or video player) optionally includes a display region that provides information on a selected piece of music (e.g., the name, composer, artist, associated album, recording date, publisher and/or length of the piece of music). Likewise, a composing application window optionally displays an interactive representation of the musical score of a piece of music being composed, allowing the user to manipulate the piece of music by adding, removing or changing notes displayed in the score. Given the complexity of user interface environment that includes application windows corresponding to applications having both audio and visual components (e.g., music playback, music composition, video playback or video composition applications), there is a need to provide feedback that enables the user to more efficiently and conveniently navigate through the user interface environment.
The embodiments described below provide improved methods and user interfaces for generating feedback to a user navigating a complex user interface environment. More specifically, these methods and user interfaces provide feedback that corresponds to beats of a piece of music represented on a display. The tactile feedback provides the user with a sense of the beat of the piece of music. In this fashion, the methods and user interfaces provided below allow the user to more efficiently and conveniently achieve an understanding of the beat of the music, as well as a greater understanding of the piece of music as a whole, by providing tactile feedback, instead of or in addition to audible and/or visual feedback. For example, in some embodiments, a user searching for a piece of music with a specific beat (e.g., to accompany a visual display or to listen to while running) moves a focus selector over a representation of the piece of music on the display, a receives tactile feedback corresponding to the beat of the music, without having to listen to the music. Likewise, in some embodiments, a user composing a piece of music moves a focus selector over a representation of the musical piece they are composition and receives tactile feedback corresponding to the beat of the music, expediting the composition process.
Some methods for sensing the beat of a piece of music rely on the user listening to the piece of music and picking-up the beat themselves. Other methods for sensing the beat of a piece of music rely on the user detecting a visual cue (e.g., a flash or pulse on a display) corresponding to the beat of the music. However, there are many situations (e.g., at work, in a theatre and in various social situations) where the volume of an electronic device will be lowered or muted, rendering audible cues ineffective. Advantageously, the methods and user interfaces described below augment or replace audible by providing tactile feedback indicating that a user interface object has been selected and/or activated.
In some embodiments, the device is an electronic device with a separate display (e.g., display 450) and a separate touch-sensitive surface (e.g., touch-sensitive surface 451). In some embodiments, the device is portable multifunction device 100, the display is touch-sensitive display system 112, and the touch-sensitive surface includes tactile output generators 167 on the display (
