Abstract:
Systems, techniques, and methods are presented for creating digital note cards and presenting a graphical user interface for interacting with digital note cards. For example, content from an electronic book can be displayed in a graphical user interface. Input can be received in the graphical user interface highlighting a portion of the content and creating a note, the note including user generated content. A digital note card can be created where one side of the digital note card includes the highlighted text, and the other side of the digital note card includes the note. The digital note card can be displayed in the graphical user interface.
Abstract:
A method, comprising: at an electronic device having a display and a touch-sensitive surface: storing a document having a plurality of features having respective locations within the document, the plurality of features including features of a first feature type in a first sequence and user annotations in a second sequence, wherein the user annotations are distinct from the features of the first feature type, and the user annotations include text highlighted by a user; displaying at least a portion of the document on the display; detecting a first gesture on the touch-sensitive surface; and in response to detecting the first gesture: in accordance with a determination that the first gesture is a single contact gesture, navigating to a portion of the document that includes or is located proximate to a sequentially adjacent feature of the first feature type in the document; and in accordance with a determination that the first gesture is a multi-contact gesture with a first predefined number of contacts, navigating to a portion of the document that is selected so as to include a sequentially adjacent user annotation in the document.
Abstract:
A method for resizing a currently selected user interface object includes simultaneously displaying on a touch-sensitive display the currently selected user interface object having a center, and a plurality of resizing handles for the currently selected user interface object. The method also includes detecting a first contact on a first resizing handle in the plurality of resizing handles, and detecting movement of the first contact across the touch-senstive display. The method further includes, in response to detecting movement of the first contact, when a second contact is detected on the touch-sensitive display while detecting movement of the first contact, resizing the currently selected user interface object about the center of the currently selected user interface object.
