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, Calif.), an image management application (e.g., Aperture or iPhoto from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, Calif.), a digital content (e.g., videos and music) management application (e.g., iTunes from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, Calif.), a drawing application, a presentation application (e.g., Keynote from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, Calif.), a word processing application (e.g., Pages from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, Calif.), a website creation application (e.g., iWeb from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, Calif.), a disk authoring application (e.g., iDVD from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, Calif.), or a spreadsheet application (e.g., Numbers from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, Calif.).
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.
There is a need for electronic devices with faster, more efficient methods and interfaces for determining whether to select a user interface object or forgo selecting the user interface object. Such methods and interfaces may complement or replace conventional methods for selecting user interface objects. 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 processing unit is configured to: detect first movement of the contact across the touch-sensitive surface unit that corresponds to movement of a focus selector toward the first location. In response to detecting the first movement of the contact, the processing unit is configured to: move the focus selector from a location remote from the first user interface object to the first location, and determine an intensity of the contact on the touch-sensitive surface unit while the focus selector is at the first location. The processing unit is further configured to, after detecting the first movement of the contact, detect second movement of the contact across the touch-sensitive surface unit that corresponds to movement of the focus selector away from the first location. The processing unit is also configured to, in response to detecting the second movement of the contact, in accordance with a determination that the contact meets selection criteria for the first user interface object, where the selection criteria for the first user interface object include that the contact meets a predefined intensity threshold while the focus selector is at the first location, move the focus selector and the first user interface object away from the first location in accordance with the second movement of the contact; and, in accordance with a determination that the contact does not meet the selection criteria for the first user interface object, move the focus selector in accordance with the second movement of the contact without moving the first user interface object.

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, Calif. 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 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.

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.
Device 100 optionally also includes one or more tactile output generators 167.
Device 100 optionally also includes one or more accelerometers 168.
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. By using a touch screen and/or a touchpad as the primary input control device for operation of device 100, the number of physical input control devices (such as push buttons, dials, and the like) on device 100 is, optionally, reduced.
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 information 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 display user interface objects such as thumbnails, icons, folders, and thumb/handles in scrubbers and slider bar. Often, a user of an electronic device will want to select and move user interface objects on a display. For example, a user will want to rearrange desktop items on a desktop of a user interface. As another example, a user may want to rearrange the order of applications, or “apps” displayed on the display of a portable multifunction device (such as a smart-phone or the like). As yet another example, a user may want to move the handle of the volume bar (a handle being a type of user interface object) to change the volume produced by the media player. Some methods of selecting user interface objects on electronic devices with touch-sensitive surfaces typically require a new input to individually select a user interface object (e.g., a mouse click or a tap and drag input). Moreover, once one user interface object is selected, selection of a second user interface object (e.g., another desktop item) requires a separate input (e.g., a different tap and drag gesture with a different contact). The problem with such methods is that they fail to provide a convenient way for users to select a user interface object during the course of a continuous contact with a touch-sensitive surface. The embodiments described below provide an effective, efficient method for an electronic device with a touch-sensitive surface to select multiple objects by determining whether or not to select a user interface object, based on an intensity of a contact with the touch-sensitive surface.
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 shown in
In some circumstances, movement of a particular user interface object is naturally constrained to one dimension. For example, volume sliders (which allow a user to graphically adjust the volume of, for example, speakers integrated into electronic device 300) and video scrubbers (which allow users to graphically “fast-forward” or “rewind” a digital video clip, also sometimes called a video scrub bar) are constrained to up and down or, alternatively, forward and back directions.
As described below, method 17200 provides an intuitive way to select a user interface object. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user when selecting a user interface object, thereby creating a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated electronic devices, method 17200 enables a user to select user interface object faster and more efficiently conserves power and increases the time between battery charges.
The device displays (17202) a first user interface object at a first location on the display, for example, thumbnail 17102-1 as described with reference to
The device also determines (17212) an intensity of the contact on the touch-sensitive surface while the focus selector is at the first location. After detecting the first movement of the contact, the device detects (17214) second movement of the contact across the touch-sensitive surface that corresponds to movement of the focus selector away from the first location. For example in
In some embodiments, the predefined intensity threshold is based (17220) at least in part on a magnitude of intensity of the contact (e.g., if the intensity of the contact is above a predefined amount of pressure that is greater than zero, then the device picks up the first user interface object). For example,
In accordance with the determination that the contact meets (17224—Yes) selection criteria for the first user interface object, the device moves the focus selector and the first user interface object as described in greater detail below. In contrast, in accordance with a determination that the contact does not (17224—No) meet the selection criteria for the first user interface object, the device moves (17226) the focus selector in accordance with the second movement of the contact without moving the first user interface object (e.g., the device forgoes selecting/picking-up the first user interface object). For example,
In accordance with the determination that the contact meets (17224—Yes) selection criteria for the first user interface object, the device moves (17228) the focus selector and the first user interface object away from the first location in accordance with the second movement of the contact (e.g., the device selects/picks-up the first user interface object, as illustrated in
In some embodiments, movement of the first user interface object (such as a thumb or handle in a scrubber or a slider) is constrained (17230) to a predefined path in the user interface, and moving the first user interface object includes moving the first user interface object along the predefined path in accordance with a component of motion of the focus selector that corresponds to an allowed direction of motion along the predefined path. Examples of these embodiments are illustrated in the user interfaces shown in
In response to detecting third movement of the contact, the device also determines (17244) an intensity of contact on the touch-sensitive surface while the focus selector is at the second location. After detecting the third movement of the contact, the device detects (17246) fourth movement of the contact across the touch-sensitive surface that corresponds to movement of the focus selector away from the second location. For example, in
In some embodiments, after detecting the first movement and before detecting the fourth movement, the device detects (17247) a decrease in intensity of the contact below the predefined intensity threshold, and after detecting the decrease in intensity of the contact below the predefined intensity threshold, the device continues to move the first user interface object in accordance with movement of the focus selector (e.g., in
In response to detecting (17248) the fourth movement of the contact, the device determines whether the contact meets selection criteria for the second user interface object. The selection criteria for the second user interface object include that the contact meets the predefined intensity threshold while the focus selector is at the second location.
In accordance with a determination that the contact does not (17252—No) meet the selection criteria for the second user interface object, the device moves (17254) the focus selector and the first user interface object in accordance with the fourth movement of the contact without moving the second user interface object (e.g., the device forgoes selection/fails to pick-up the second user interface object, as illustrated in
In accordance with a determination that the contact meets (17252—Yes) selection criteria for the second user interface object, the device moves (17256) the focus selector, the first user interface object, and the second user interface object away from the second location in accordance with the fourth movement of the contact (e.g., the device selects/picks-up the second user interface object and moves the second user interface object along with the first user interface object, as illustrated in

As shown in
Processing unit 17308 is configured to detect first movement of the contact (e.g., with the detecting unit 17312) across touch-sensitive surface unit 17304 that corresponds to movement of a focus selector toward the first location. In response to detecting the first movement of the contact, processing unit 17308 is configured to move (e.g., with the moving unit 17316) the focus selector from a location remote from the first user interface object to the first location, and determine (e.g., with the determining unit 17313) an intensity of the contact on touch-sensitive surface unit 17304 while the focus selector is at the first location. After detecting the first movement of the contact, processing unit 17308 is configured to detect second movement of the contact (e.g., with the detecting unit 17312) across the touch-sensitive surface unit 17304 that corresponds to movement of the focus selector away from the first location.

In some embodiments, movement of the first user interface object is constrained to a predefined path in the user interface, and moving the first user interface object includes moving the first user interface object (e.g., with the moving unit 17316) along the predefined path in accordance with a component of motion of the focus selector that corresponds to an allowed direction of motion along the predefined path.
In some embodiments, the first user interface object has a two-dimensional range of motion, and moving the first user interface object includes moving the first user interface object (e.g., with the moving unit 17316) to a location at or adjacent to the focus selector on the display unit.
In some embodiments, the predefined intensity threshold is based at least in part on an amount of change in intensity of the contact.
In some embodiments, the predefined intensity threshold is based at least in part on a magnitude of intensity of the contact.
In some embodiments, a second user interface object is displayed on display unit 17302 at a second location on display unit 17302 while the first user interface object is displayed on display unit 17302, and processing unit 17308 is configured to, while continuing to detect the contact and moving the first user interface object in accordance with movement of the focus selector and after detecting the second movement of the contact, detect third movement of the contact (e.g., with the detecting unit 17312) across the touch-sensitive surface unit 17304 that corresponds to movement of the focus selector toward the second location (e.g., to the second location). In response to detecting the third movement of the contact, processing unit 17308 is configured to move (e.g., with the moving unit 17316) the focus selector from a location remote from the second user interface object to the second location, and determine (e.g., with the determining unit 17313) an intensity of the contact on the touch-sensitive surface unit 17304 while the focus selector is at the second location. After detecting the third movement of the contact, processing unit 17308 is configured to detect fourth movement of the contact (e.g., with the detecting unit 17312) across the touch-sensitive surface unit 17304 that corresponds to movement of the focus selector away from the second location. In response to detecting the fourth movement of the contact, in accordance with a determination that the contact meets selection criteria for the second user interface object, where the selection criteria for the second user interface object include that the contact meets the predefined intensity threshold while the focus selector is at the second location, processing unit 17308 is configured to move (e.g., with the moving unit 17316) the focus selector, the first user interface object, and the second user interface object away from the second location in accordance with the fourth movement of the contact. In response to detecting the fourth movement of the contact, in accordance with a determination that the contact does not meet the selection criteria for the second user interface object, processing unit 17308 is configured to move (e.g., with the moving unit 17316) the focus selector and the first user interface object in accordance with the fourth movement of the contact without moving the second user interface object.
In some embodiments, processing unit 17308 is further configured to, after detecting the fourth movement of the contact, display (e.g., with the display enabling unit 17310) a representation of the first user interface object and a representation of the second user interface object moving on the display unit in accordance with movement of the focus selector.
In some embodiments, processing unit 17308 is further configured to, after detecting the fourth movement of the contact, display (e.g., with the display enabling unit 17310) a representation of a group of objects corresponding to the first user interface object and the second user interface object moving on the display unit in accordance with movement of the focus selector.
In some embodiments, processing unit is further configured to, after detecting the first movement and before detecting the fourth movement detect a decrease in intensity of the contact (e.g., with the detecting unit 17312) below the predefined intensity threshold, and after detecting the decrease in intensity of the contact below the predefined intensity threshold, continuing to move (e.g., with the moving unit 17316) the first user interface object in accordance with movement of the focus selector.
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 have graphical user interfaces that display user interface objects such as thumbnails, icons, folders, and thumb/handles in scrubbers and slider bar on a display. Such user interface items generally represent either a file or a directory (or sub-directory) corresponding to a collection of files. Often, a user of an electronic device will want to select and move user interface objects on the display. For example, a user will want to rearrange desktop items in a desktop environment/window system. As another example, a user may want to select several user interface objects and add the selected user interface object to a collection of user interface objects. Such operations occur, for example, while using a desktop environment (e.g., adding files to a folder), or between a desktop environment and an application (e.g., adding files from a desktop window to a play list in a media player), or within an application (e.g., selecting and dragging user interface items within a media player). As yet another example, a user may want to rearrange the order of thumbnails corresponding to applications, or “apps” displayed on the display of a portable multifunction device.
Some methods of selecting user interface objects on electronic devices with touch-sensitive surfaces typically require performing a distinct selection operation on each of a plurality of a user interface objects (e.g., activating a mouse button or placing a contact on a touch-sensitive surface) to individually select the user interface objects. Typically, in such embodiments, in order to perform a subsequent selection operation a user first ceases to select a previously selected object (e.g., a previously selected user interface object is deselected when the mouse button is deactivated or the contact is lifted off of the touch-sensitive surface). Thus, in these examples, selection of a second user interface object (e.g., another desktop item) requires a separate selection operation and consequently only one user interface object is selected at a time. Alternatively, some methods enable a user to select multiple user interface an area to select multiple user interface objects, however this method of selecting objects does not enable a user to a specific set of user interface objects from a group of user interface objects that are located in close proximity to each other. The embodiments described below provide a more efficient, intuitive method, implemented on an electronic device with a touch-sensitive surface, for determining whether to select a user interface object, or forgo selecting a user interface object, based on an intensity of a contact with the touch-sensitive surface. In some circumstances, multiple user interface objects are selected using a single, continuous contact or, alternative, multiple distinct contacts on the touch-sensitive surface.
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, contact 17406 controls the position of cursor 17408. For example, movement of contact 17406 across touch-sensitive surface 451 (illustrated by the arrow attached to contact 17406,
After selecting thumbnail 17402-2, while the device is in the multiple object selection mode, the device maintains selection of the selected thumbnails 17402-2 and 17402-1, even when the intensity of contact 17410 decreases below the selection intensity threshold (e.g., “ITL”). In response to detecting movement of contact 17410 in
In some embodiments, in response to detecting liftoff of a continuous contact (e.g., contact 17410,
In contrast,
As described below, the method 17500 provides an intuitive way to selecting user interface objects. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user when selecting user interface objects, thereby creating a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated electronic devices, enabling a user to select user interface objects faster and more efficiently conserves power and increases the time between battery charges.
The device displays (17502) on a display, a plurality of user interface objects, including a first user interface object and a second user interface object (e.g., thumbnails 17402-1 and 17402-2,
While displaying the plurality of user interface objects, the device detects (17510) a first press input that corresponds to an increase in intensity of a contact above a first intensity threshold on the touch-sensitive surface while a focus selector is over the first user interface object. In response to detecting the first press input, the device selects (17512) the first user interface object, (e.g., selection of thumbnail 17402-1 in
After selecting the first user interface object (17514), the device detects (17516) a second press input that corresponds to an increase in intensity of a contact above a second intensity threshold on the touch-sensitive surface while the focus selector is over the second user interface object. In some embodiments, the first press input corresponds (17518) to a first contact on the touch-sensitive surface, and the second press input corresponds to a second contact on the touch-sensitive surface different from the first contact (e.g., the first contact ceases to be detected prior to detecting the second press input). In some embodiments, the first contact and the second contact are made by the same finger at different times, as shown in
In some embodiments, the first press input and the second press input are made by a continuously detected (unbroken) contact on the touch-sensitive surface. In some embodiments, the gesture includes (17522) an intermediate portion (e.g., movement of contact 17410 in
Regardless of whether a single contact or multiple contacts are used, in some embodiments, as shown in
Alternatively, in some embodiments, the first intensity threshold is (17526) the alternative-mode intensity threshold (e.g., “ITD”), and the second intensity threshold is the alternative-mode intensity threshold (e.g., “ITD”). Thus, in some embodiments, the second intensity threshold is the same as the first intensity threshold. For example, in some embodiments, the device enters the alternative mode in response to detecting a deep press input (e.g., an input including an increase in intensity of a contact from an intensity below ITD to an intensity above ITD) during selection of a first user interface object, and the device selects a second (or third, fourth, etc.) user interface object in response to detecting other deep press inputs. In some embodiments, the device enters the alternative mode in response to detecting a light press input (e.g., an input including an increase in intensity of a contact from an intensity below ITL to an intensity above ITL) during selection of a first user interface object and the device selects a second (or third, fourth, etc.) user interface object in response to detecting other light press inputs.
In response to detecting the second press input, the device selects (17528) the second user interface object and maintains selection of the first user interface object, as shown, for example, in
In some embodiments, after (17532) displaying the first residual image and the second residual image the device detects (17534) an end of selection of the first user interface object and the second user interface object. For example, the device detects an invalid drop of the selected user interface objects such as liftoff (or deep press/double tap) of the contact while the focus selector is over a region of the display that the selected objects cannot be placed in. In response to detecting the end of selection of the first user interface object and the second user interface object, the device displays (17536) an animation of a representation of the first user interface object moving back to the first residual image and displaying an animation of a representation of the second user interface object moving back to the second residual image. For example, in
In some embodiments, the device detects (17538) a press input on a respective residual image (e.g., the device detects an increase in intensity of a contact corresponding to cursor 17408 above ITL while the cursor is over the respective residual image). In response to detecting the press input on the respective residual image, the device deselects (17540) a user interface object corresponding to the respective residual image (e.g., deselect the first user interface object if the respective residual image is the first residual image and deselect the second user interface object if the respective residual image is the second residual image). In some embodiments, after the user interface object is deselected, the user interface object is displayed at its original location and the representation of the user interface object that was previously moving in accordance with movement of the focus selector and the respective residual image cease to be displayed.
In some embodiments, after selecting the first user interface object, the device displays (17542) a representation of the first user interface object proximate to the focus selector, and, after selecting the second user interface object, the device displays a representation of the second user interface object proximate to the focus selector (e.g., representations of a pile of photos follow cursor/contact around display). Examples of representations of user interface objects proximate to the focus selector include the “stack” or “pile” of user interface objects shown in, for example,
In some embodiments, after selecting the first user interface object, the devices changes (17544) display of the first user interface object to provide a visual indication that the first user interface object has been selected (e.g., the border of thumbnail 17418-1 changes between
In some embodiments, after (17546) selecting the first user interface object and the second user interface object, the device detects (17548) liftoff of the second contact. After detecting liftoff of the second contact, the device detects (17550) a third press input corresponding to a third contact. In response to detecting the third press input, the device deselects (17552) the first user interface object and the second user interface object (e.g., in
In some embodiments, the device detects (17554) a third press input that includes an increase in intensity of a contact above the alternative-mode intensity threshold (e.g., while the focus selector is at a location on the display that is outside of the plurality of user interface objects). In response to detecting the third press input, the device deselects (17556) the first user interface object and the second user interface object. In some embodiments, the first and second user interface objects are deselected if the increase in intensity is detected while the focus selector is over a portion of the user interface that does not include any selectable user interface objects, whereas if the increase in intensity is detected while the focus selector is over a third user interface object that is selectable, the third user interface object is selected in addition to the previously selected first and second user interface objects. For example, if the device were to detect an deep press input in
In some embodiments, the device detects (17558) liftoff of the continuously detected contact. In response to detecting liftoff of the continuously detected contact, the device deselects (17560) the first user interface object and the second user interface object (e.g., simultaneous selection of the multiple user interface object is maintained until the contact used to select the user interface objects is lifted off of the touch-sensitive surface), as shown in
In some embodiments, the plurality of user interface objects includes (17562) a third user interface object that is representative of a collection of user interface objects (e.g., a folder icon that is representative of a directory of files, such as “docs” folder 17404 in

Display unit 17602 is configured to display a plurality of user interface objects, including a first user interface object and a second user interface object. Processing unit 17608 is configured to detect a first press input (e.g., with the detecting unit 17610) that corresponds to an increase in intensity of a contact above a first intensity threshold on the touch-sensitive surface unit 17604 while a focus selector is over the first user interface object. In response to detection of the first press input, processing unit 17608 is configured to select the first user interface object (e.g., with the selecting unit 17614), and after selecting the first user interface object, detect a second press input (e.g., with the detecting unit 17610) that corresponds to an increase in intensity of a contact above a second intensity threshold on the touch-sensitive surface unit 17604 while the focus selector is over the second user interface object. In response to detection of the second press input, processing unit 17608 is configured to select the second user interface object (e.g., with the selecting unit 17614) and maintaining selection of the first user interface object.
In some embodiments, the first press input corresponds to a first contact on the touch-sensitive surface unit, and the second press input corresponds to a second contact on the touch-sensitive surface unit different from the first contact.
In some embodiments, the processing unit 17608 is further configured to, after selecting the first user interface object and the second user interface object, detect liftoff of the second contact. After detecting liftoff of the second contact, processing unit 17608 is further configured to detect a third press input (e.g., with the detecting unit 17610) corresponding to a third contact; and, in response to detecting the third press input, deselect the first user interface object and the second user interface object (e.g., with the selecting unit 17614).

In some embodiments, the processing unit 17608 is configured to detect a range of contact intensity values and compare the detected intensity values against a plurality of different intensity thresholds. The plurality of different intensity thresholds include an alternative-mode intensity threshold that is used by the processing unit 17608 to transition from a first selection mode to a second selection mode; and a selection intensity threshold that is used by the processing unit 17608 to differentiate between inputs that correspond to movement of the focus selector on the display unit 17602 (and inputs that correspond to selection of a user interface object at a location on the display unit 17602 at or near a location of the focus selector, where the selection intensity threshold is different from the alternative-mode intensity threshold.

The processing unit 17608 is further configured to, in response to detecting the third press input, in accordance with a determination that the third press input includes an increase in intensity above the first intensity threshold, display a user interface (e.g., with the display enabling unit 17612) with a region for adding the first user interface object and second user interface object to the collection of user interface objects represented by the third user interface object and, in accordance with a determination that the third press input includes an increase in intensity to a maximum intensity that is above the second intensity threshold and below the first intensity threshold, select the third user interface object (e.g., with the selecting unit 17614) in addition to the first user interface object and the second user interface object.
In some embodiments, the processing unit 17608 is further configured to, after selecting the first user interface object, display a first residual image (e.g., with the display enabling unit 17612) at the original location of the first user interface object; and after selecting the second user interface object, display a second residual image (e.g., with the display enabling unit 17612) at the original location of the second user interface object.

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 with touch-sensitive surfaces, such as portable multifunction devices with touch screen displays, have graphical user interfaces with displayed virtual keyboards for typing characters for output in, for example, e-mail messages, notepad applications, and search fields. Some methods for entering a character or a sequence of characters (e.g., entering an input into the device that corresponds to a request to output a character or multiple characters) require separate contacts on a touch-sensitive surface for each character entered. However, entering characters with a separate contact for each character entered can be inefficient and time consuming for a user.
In the embodiments described below, a faster and more efficient method for accurately typing characters on a virtual keyboard is provided where a sequence of characters can be selected with a continuous contact in response to detecting an increase in intensity of the contact while the contact is over keys corresponding to the characters. In some embodiments, detecting a press input that includes a contact with a respective intensity above a respective threshold (e.g., on a device with a touch-sensitive surface configured to detect intensity of contacts) while a contact is over a respective character causes the device to output the respective character. In contrast, detecting a press input with a maximum intensity below the respective threshold causes the device to forgo outputting the respective character. This method streamlines the character typing process by allowing a user to type characters quickly and accurately using a single continuous movement of a contact.
In some embodiments, character “G” is outputted when a decrease in intensity of contact 17706 is detected from above ITL to below ITL (e.g., on the falling edge, or “up-stroke” of a contact that previously had an intensity above ITL). In some embodiments, the character-output criteria include detection of both an intensity of contact 17706 above ITL, and a subsequent decrease in intensity from above to below a different character-output intensity threshold (e.g., ITC), while contact 17706 is continuously detected over the key corresponding to character “G” on the virtual keyboard. In such embodiments, there are different thresholds to activate potential output of a character (e.g., ITL) and to actually trigger output of the character (e.g., ITC), thereby providing hysteresis and prevented repeated, accidental outputs of the same character. Alternatively, in some embodiments, ITL and ITC are equal. For ease of explanation, output of a respective character is shown contemporaneously with a corresponding input above ITL, unless otherwise noted (e.g., output is triggered on the down-stroke).
In some embodiments, after output of a capitalized character (e.g., character “G”) virtual keyboard 17704 automatically transitions to displaying lower-case characters. In some embodiments, subsequent fulfillment of character-output criteria while a contact is over a lower-case character (e.g., “g”) results in output of the lower-case character. For convenience of explanation, embodiments are described with reference to capitalized (i.e., upper-case) characters.
As described below, the method 17800 provides an intuitive way to typing characters on a virtual keyboard. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user when typing characters on a virtual keyboard, thereby creating a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated electronic devices, enabling a user to type characters on a virtual keyboard faster and more efficiently conserves power and increases the time between battery charges.
The device displays (17802) a virtual keyboard on the display (e.g., an alphanumeric keyboard for entering text on the device shown in
In some embodiments, the character-output criteria for outputting the character that corresponds to the respective key include (17811) that, while the focus selector is over the respective key, the contact corresponding to the focus selector increases from an intensity below the first intensity threshold (e.g., the character is output in response to detecting an increase in intensity of the contact from an intensity below the first intensity threshold to an intensity above the first intensity threshold).
In some embodiments, the character-output criteria for outputting the character that corresponds to the respective key include (17812) that, while the focus selector is over the respective key, the contact corresponding to the focus selector decreases from an intensity above the first intensity threshold to an intensity below a character-output intensity threshold. In some embodiments, the character-output intensity threshold is the same as the first intensity threshold. In some embodiments, the character-output intensity threshold is below the first intensity threshold.
In some embodiments, the character-output criteria for outputting the character that corresponds to the respective key include (17813) that, while the focus selector is continuously detected over the respective key, the contact corresponding to the focus selector increases from an intensity below the first intensity and subsequently decreases from an intensity above the first intensity threshold to an intensity below a character-output intensity threshold (e.g., the character-output criteria include detection of a down-stroke and an up-stroke while the contact is continuously over a respective key).
In some embodiments, while continuously detecting the contact on the touch-sensitive surface, the device detects (17814) a first press input that includes detecting an increase in intensity of the contact above the first intensity threshold while the focus selector is over a first key. In response to detecting the first press input, the device outputs (17815) a character that corresponds to the first key. In some embodiments, the device outputs the character in response to detecting the increase in intensity of the contact above the first intensity threshold (e.g., the “down-stroke” of the press input). In some embodiments, the device outputs the character in response to detecting the decrease in intensity of the contact below the character-output intensity threshold (e.g., the “up-stroke” of the press input).
In some embodiments, while continuously detecting the contact on the touch-sensitive surface, the device detects a decrease in intensity of the contact below the first intensity threshold. After detecting the decrease in intensity of the contact below the first intensity threshold, the device detects (17816) a decrease in intensity of the contact below the first intensity threshold (or, optionally, the character-output intensity threshold). After detecting the decrease in intensity of the contact below the first intensity threshold, the device detects (17818) a second press input (or, in some circumstances a third, fourth, etc.) that includes detecting an increase in intensity of the contact above the first intensity threshold while the focus selector is over the first key. In response to detecting the second press input, the device outputs (17820) a character that corresponds to the first key again as an additional output (e.g., output of a second character “T,”
In some embodiments, while continuously detecting the contact on the touch-sensitive surface, the device detects (17822) a second press input that includes detecting an increase in intensity of the contact above the first intensity threshold while the focus selector is over a second key. In response to detecting the second press input (17824) a character that corresponds to the second key (e.g., as the user moves the focus selector around the keyboard, multiple different keys can be selected by increasing the intensity of the contact while the focus selector is over different keys in the keyboard). In some embodiments, the device outputs the character in response to detecting the increase in intensity of the contact above the first intensity threshold (e.g., the “down-stroke” of the press input). In some embodiments, the device outputs the character in response to detecting the decrease in intensity of the contact below the character-output intensity threshold (e.g., the “up-stroke” of the press input).
In some embodiments, while continuously detecting the contact on the touch-sensitive surface, the device detects (17826) movement of the contact that corresponds to movement of the focus selector over a second key, and a maximum intensity of the contact is below the first intensity threshold while the focus selector is over the second key. In response to detecting movement of the contact that corresponds to movement of the focus selector over the second key, wherein the maximum intensity of the contact is below the first intensity threshold while the focus selector is over the second key, the device forgoes (17828) outputting a character that corresponds to the second key.
In some embodiments, while continuously detecting the contact on the touch-sensitive surface, the device detects (17830) a plurality of inputs that correspond to entering a sequence of characters (e.g., sequence of characters “GETT,”
In some embodiments, in response to detecting the autocorrect input, in accordance with a determination that the contact included in the autocorrect input has an intensity between the first intensity threshold and the second intensity threshold, the device performs (17838) a second operation associated with the sequence of characters, the second operation being different from the first operation.
In some embodiments, the first operation includes (17840) rejecting the modified sequence of characters (e.g., rejecting the suggested auto-correction,
Alternatively, in some embodiments, the first operation includes (17842) replacing the sequences of characters with the modified sequence of characters, and the second operation includes rejecting the modified sequence of characters.
