Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an electronic device which determines a command by applying heuristics to a user gesture detected on a touch screen display.SOLUTION: A computing method using the touch screen display includes: a step of determining the command for the device by applying one or more heuristics to one or more finger touches on the touch screen display; and a step of processing the command. The one or more heuristics include a heuristic method for determining that the one or more finger touches correspond to a linear vertical screen scrolling command, a heuristic method for determining that the one or more finger touches correspond to a two-dimensional screen translational movement command, and a heuristic method for determining a command for transition to displaying of respective items in an item set by the one or more finger touches and further displaying of a next item in the item set.
Abstract:
In some embodiments, a device displays content on a touch screen display and detects input by finger gestures. In response to the finger gestures, the device selects content, visually distinguishes the selected content, and/or updates the selected content based on detected input. In some embodiments, the device displays a command display area that includes one or more command icons; detects activation of a command icon in the command display area; and, in response to detecting activation of the command icon in the command display area, performs a corresponding action with respect to the selected content. Exemplary actions include cutting, copying, and pasting content.

Abstract:
A computer-implemented method, for use in conjunction with a portable electronic device with a touch screen display, comprises displaying at least a portion of a structured electronic document on the touch screen display, wherein the structured electronic document comprises a plurality of 5 boxes of content, and detecting a first gesture at a location on the displayed portion of the structured electronic document. A first box in the plurality of boxes at the location of the first gesture is determined. The first box on the touch screen display is enlarged and substantially centered.

In some embodiments, a device displays content on a touch screen display and detects input by finger gestures. In response to the fin-ger gestures, the device selects content, visually distinguishes the selected content, and/or updates the selected content based on detected input. In some embodiments, the device displays a command display area that in-cludes one or more command icons; detects activation of a command icon in the command display area; and, in response to detecting activation of the command icon in the command display area, performs a corresponding action with respect to the selected content. Exemplary actions include cut-ting, copying, and pasting content.
Abstract:
A method comprising: at a portable multifunction device with a rectangular touch screen display that can be positioned so as to present the display in a portrait view or a landscape 5 view, detecting the device in a first orientation; while the device is in the first orientation, displaying an application in a first mode on the touch screen display in a first view, wherein displaying the application in the first mode includes displaying a first plurality of user interface objects for performing a first plurality of operations in the application, including a user interface object for performing a first operation; detecting the device in a second ) orientation; and in response to detecting the device in the second orientation, displaying the application in a second mode on the touch screen display in a second view, wherein displaying the application in the second mode includes displaying a second plurality of user interface objects for performing a second plurality of operations in the application, including a user interface object for performing the first operation and a user interface object for 5 performing a second operation beyond the operations corresponding to user interface objects found in the first mode, wherein the display of the application in the first mode differs from the display of the application in the second mode by more than a change in display orientation.

Abstract:
One or more touch input signals can be obtained from a touch sensitive device. A touch event model can be used to determine touch and/or gesture events based on the touch input signals. The touch and gesture events can be associated with touch input signals generated from different regions of a web page displayed on the touch sensitive device. Access can be provided to at least one touch or gesture event through a programming interface.
