DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

In order to make the above description of the present invention more comprehensible, the preferred embodiments will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Referring to FIG. 1, in one embodiment, a system 100 for controlling a rotation of an object on a touch screen includes a single touch setting module 200, a single touch driving module 300, an image processing module 400, and a touch screen interface 500. The single touch setting module 200 detects a single touch action. The single touch driving module 300 receives information from the single touch setting module and activates a rotating action on the object. The image processing module 400 includes an object rotating module 401 and an object scaling module 402. The object rotating module 401 rotates the object, and the object scaling module 402 scales the object size to fit with the touch screen interface.

Specifically, when user performs a touch action, the single touch setting module 200 of the system 100 detects a single touch action. The user's single touch action needs to continue for a predetermined time, and the predetermined time is about 3 seconds. The single touch setting module 200 transmits the processed information to the single touch driving module 300, and then the single touch driving module 300 transmits the processed information to the image processing module 400. The image processing module 400 includes an object rotating module 401 and an object scaling module 402. The object rotation module 401 and the object scaling module 402 feedback of the object rotating information and the object scaling information to the single touch driving module 300. At this time, the single touch driving module 300 activates a rotating action and a zooming action on the object and transmits the rotating action and the zooming action to the touch screen interface 500. Preferably, the object includes, but is not limited to, an image or a video, and the rotation may be a clockwise rotation or a counterclockwise rotation, and the rotation angle is an arbitrary angle. When the object is rotating, a rotation angle is displayed on the touch screen interface 500. When the object rotation module 401 stops rotating the object, the object remains rotated at the rotation angle. In addition, the object can be zoomed to fit the touch screen interface 500. That is, the object size can be automatically adjusted to conform to an area of the screen, and the user does not need to perform additional actions to adjust the object size.

Referring to FIG. 2, in one embodiment, a method for controlling a rotation of an object on a touch screen comprises executing single touch S10 on the touch screen interface, activating a rotating action S20, rotating the object S30, and stopping the rotating action of the object S40. There is a predetermined time between the activating the rotating action S20 and the executing single touch S10. The predetermined time is about 3 seconds. In addition, when the object executes the rotation action, the object size is scaled to fit with the touch screen interface. The user does not need to perform additional actions to adjust the object size. Preferably, the object includes, but is not limited to, an image or a video, and the rotation may be a clockwise rotation or a counterclockwise rotation, and the rotation angle is an arbitrary angle.

Referring to FIG. 3, FIG. 4, and FIG. 5, in order to make a person skilled in the art to understand the content of embodiments. The FIG. 3, FIG. 4, and FIG. 5 specific embodiments for controlling the rotation of an object on a touch screen. First, the user's finger 501 executing single touch on the touch screen interface 500 for a predetermined time (as shown in FIG. 3), and the predetermined time is about 3 seconds. Then, the user's finger 501 touches the touch screen interface 500 to rotate the object in a clockwise direction. At this time, the touch screen interface also displays a rotation angle 502 (as shown in FIG. 4), for example 90 degrees, and of course, it can also rotate the object in a counterclockwise direction which is depended on the user's needs. An image 503 in the touch screen interface 500 is also rotated 90 degrees in a counterclockwise direction while user's finger is rotating. If the image 503 size exceeds the touch screen interface 500 (as shown in FIG. 4), the image 503 size is automatically adjusted to fit with an area of the touch screen interface 500 (as shown in FIG. 5), and the user does not need to perform additional actions to adjust the image 503 size.

Referring to FIG. 6, it is a block diagram of an electronic device according to one embodiment of the present invention. The electronic device 10 can be a handheld electronic device, such as a tablet computer or a smart phone. The electronic device 10 includes a touch panel 20 having a touch screen interface 500, a central processing unit (CPU) 30, and a memory device 40, and a data bus 50 connected to the touch panel 20, the central processing unit 30, and the memory device 40. The system 100 for controlling the rotation of the object on the touch screen 20 is stored in the memory device 40. Memory device 40 includes, but is not limited to, a random memory storage (RAM), a read only memory (ROM), an optical disk, or a hard disk.

The central processor 30 reads from a system 100 stored in the memory device 40 that controls the rotation of the object on touch screen 20 when the electronic device is operating. When the single touch setting module 200 detects that the user performs single touch on the touch screen interface 500 for more than a predetermined time which is about 3 seconds, the central processing unit 30 executes the single touch driving module 300. Then, the object is activated to rotate, and the image processing module 400 is executed to rotate the object as the user's finger is rotating the object on the touch screen 20. When the user stops to rotate the object at an angle and leaves the touch operation mode, the object remains rotated at the rotation angle. Moreover, the object is scaled to fit with the touch screen interface 500 when the object is rotating.

In the above, the present application has been described in the above preferred embodiments, but the preferred embodiments are not intended to limit the scope of the invention, and a person skilled in the art may make various modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the application.
