Abstract:
This relates to allowing a computer system using a single pointing device to simulate multi-point gesture inputs. Simulating software can receive single pointing inputs (such as, for example, input from a mouse) and convert them to simulated multi-point gesture inputs such as finger pinches, reverse pinches, translations, rotation, and the like. The simulating software can also allow the user to use keyboard keys to give the user additional control when generating the multi¬ point gesture inputs.
Abstract:
A computer-implemented method comprising, at a computing device (100) with a touch screen display (112), displaying a map application, wherein the map application is configured to separately display a list (5240) of bookmarked locations (5242), a list (5246) of recent queries (5248) by a user, and a list (5252) of contacts (5254) for the user and, in response to detecting a finger gesture (5230) on an input icon (5232) associated with a search term input area (5202), displaying one of the list (5240) of bookmarked locations (5242), wherein in response to detecting a finger gesture (5244) on a bookmarked location (5242-3) in the list (5240) of bookmarked locations (5242), an area corresponding to the bookmarked location (5242-3) is displayed on a digital map, the list (5246) of recent queries (5248) by the user, wherein in response to detecting a finger gesture (5250) on a recent query (5248-6) in the list (5246) of recent queries (5248) by the user, one or more results corresponding to the recent query (5248-6) are displayed on a digital map, and the list (5252) of contacts (5254) for the user, wherein in response to detecting a finger gesture (5256) on a contact (5254-3) in the list (5252) of contacts (5254), an area associated with the contact (5254-3) is displayed on a digital map.
Abstract:
In a computer- implemented method at least a portion of a structured electronic document (3912) comprising content (4002,4004) is displayed on a touch screen display (112) of a portable electronic device (100). A gesture (4028) is detected on an item of inline multimedia content (4002-1) in the displayed portion of the structured electronic document (3912). In response, the item of inline multimedia content (4002-1) on the touch screen display (112) is enlarged and display of other content (4002,4004) in the structured electronic document (3912) besides the enlarged item of inline multimedia content (4002-1) is ceased. A gesture (4026) on a play icon (4018) is detected. In response, the enlarged item of inline multimedia content (4002-1) is played.
Abstract:
In one aspect of the invention, a computer- implemented method in a portable. multifunction device (100) with a touch screen display (112) includes: displaying content (4112) on the- touch screen display (112), wherein the content (4112) includes a plurality of user input elements (4102); detecting a contact (4104) by a finger (2.02) with the touch screen display (112); choosing a user input element (4102-1) in the plurality.of user input elements (4102) based on proximity of the user input element (4102-1) to the contact (4104), displaying information (4108-1) associated with the chosen user input element (4102-1) over the displayed content (4112); detecting a break in the contact by the finger (202) with the touch screen display (112); and receiving input (4118-3) for the chosen user input element (4102-1).
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.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and graphical user interfaces for viewing multiple application windows are disclosed. In one embodiment, a portable electronic device with a touch screen display: displays an application, which includes a displayed window and at least one hidden window; displays an icon for adding windows to the application; detects activation of the icon for adding windows; in response to detecting activation of the icon for adding windows, adds a window to the application; detects a gesture on the touch screen display; and, in response to detecting the gesture, moves a displayed window in the application off the display and moves a hidden window onto the display.
Abstract:
A plurality of icons are displayed on a touch-sensitive display. A respective icon in at least a subset of the plurality of icons corresponds to two or more symbols. A contact by a user with the touch-sensitive display that corresponds to the respective icon is detected. A respective symbol in the two or more symbols to which the contact further corresponds is determined. The displayed respective icon is modified to indicate that the contact corresponds to the respective symbol.
Abstract:
A computer-implemented method for use in conjunction with a computing device with a touch screen display comprises: detecting one or more finger contacts with the touch screen display, applying one or more heuristics to the one or more finger contacts to determine a command for the device, and processing the command. The one or more heuristics comprise: a heuristic for determining that the one or more finger contacts correspond to a one- dimensional vertical screen scrolling command, a heuristic for determining that the one or more finger contacts correspond to a two-dimensional screen translation command, and a heuristic for determining that the one or more finger contacts correspond to a command to transition from displaying a respective item in a set of items to displaying a next item in the set of items.
