Embodiment 1

[0038] Turn on the touch screen device and enter the multilingual mixed input method mode. When there is no key operation, the editing area 200 is empty, the candidate area 300 is not displayed, and the enlarged selection area 400 is hidden. In this embodiment, the input and displayed target item is the Chinese phrase "we".

[0039]According to the arrangement rules of the English letters corresponding to the number keys 2 to 9 in the virtual keyboard area 100, the Chinese phrase "we" should be continuously input with the pinyin "women", and the sequence of the number keys corresponding to the virtual keyboard area 100 is "96636". Every time a key is input, the Chinese and English dual-input engines search for the corresponding characters, radicals, phrases, etc., and display the search results dynamically and in real time in the candidate area 300 in a double-line structure according to the frequency of use. The 200 also dynamically displays the letters corresponding to the k...

Embodiment 2

[0041] The only difference between embodiment 2 and embodiment 1 is that the target item of embodiment 2 is to display the digital string "96636". see figure 1 , click the target item "96636" displayed in the number candidate area 303 of the second candidate row 302, and the zoom selection area 400 will pop up, and the zoom selection area 400 will enlarge the double candidate row where the target item is located by 2 times. is "we", and the downlink option 402 is "96636". Press and hold the downlink option 402 while sliding the finger downward on the touch screen to select the target item. At this time, the target item "96636" is displayed in the editing area 200 in real time, and the input of the digital string is completed.

Embodiment 3

[0043] The only difference between embodiment 3 and embodiments 1-2 is that the target item of embodiment 3 is to display the English character string "women's". see Figure 4 , the English character string "women's" searched by the English input engine is located in the second position of the Chinese-English candidate area 304 in the second candidate row 302, therefore, clicking on the target item "women's" displayed in the English candidate area 304 will pop up an enlarged selection Area 400, the enlargement selection area 400 doubles the double candidate row where the target item is located, the uplink alternative 401 is "what about me", and the downlink alternative 402 is "women's". Press and hold the downlink option 402 while sliding your finger downward on the touch screen to select the target item. At this time, the target item "women's" is displayed in the editing area 200 in real time, and the input of the English character string is completed.

Abstract

The invention discloses a multi-language hybrid input method used on an embedded touch screen virtual keyboard. Each key on the virtual keyboard maps three to four characters respectively; a display region of a touch screen is provided with a virtual keyboard region, an editing region and a candidate region; the touch screen also comprises a pop-up amplifying and selecting region; the method particularly comprises the following steps of: performing keystroke operation; dynamically displaying Chinese information, numerical information and foreign information related to the key at the candidate region; selecting the candidate region where a target item is positioned, popping up the amplifying and selecting region, and amplifying the row in which the target item is positioned in the candidate region by the amplifying and selecting region; and clicking or downwardly sliding the target item and selecting and displaying input Chinese information, numerical information or foreign information at the editing region in real time to finish the input. By the method, rapid hybrid input of Chinese, number, English and other foreign languages is realized, the efficiency of inputting written information is greatly improved, and the operation is intuitive and the compatibility of the method is good.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a virtual keyboard input method, in particular to a multilingual mixed input method for a virtual keyboard on an embedded touch screen device. Background technique [0002] With the continuous progress and development of information and technology, touch screen technology is more and more widely used in embedded devices such as mobile phones and PDAs, and the requirements for various technologies on touch screen devices are also getting higher and higher. Text information is a necessary means of interactive communication, and realizing fast and convenient text input is also one of the goals of touch screen devices. In the text information input processing process, it is inevitable to encounter the mixed input of various text information. For example, in the process of inputting Chinese characters, information such as Arabic numerals and foreign character strings (such as English letters or words) need to be input. [0003] Com...
