Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, in the current input method of the mobile terminal, for the edited string converted by the user clicking the button sequence, if the user wants to input the cursor in the edited string to modify the edited string, the user needs to click a certain position in the edited string, and due to the The display area is small, and it is difficult for the user to accurately click on the desired position by clicking on the touch screen. Moreover, the user's clicking action will block the editing string, which will affect the accuracy of the user's operation.
[0004] In addition, for the input method, the candidates obtained according to the edit string are displayed in the candidate column. If the user wants to select more candidates, the user needs to click the expand button to expand the candidate interface for selection, but the candidate interface will cover the input method keyboard. Unable to directly display new candidates in the candidate bar through the cursor of the candidate bar

Embodiment 1

[0154] refer to figure 1 , which shows a schematic flowchart of an input method cursor operation method of the present invention, which may specifically include:

[0155] Step 110, in the regular text candidate mode of the input method, monitor whether a sliding event is received;

[0156] In the embodiment of the present invention, for example, the mobile terminal uses the pinyin input method of the nine-key keyboard. For example, the nine-key keyboard is as follows: 1 key corresponds to: participle, 2 keys correspond to: abc, 3 keys correspond to: def, 4 keys correspond to: ghi, 5 Corresponding key: jkl, 6 key corresponding: mno, 7 key corresponding: pqrs, 8 key corresponding: tuv, 9 key corresponding: wxyz.

[0157] The user can click the nine-key keyboard 524482, then the input method will first recognize the key sequence 524482 according to the recognition logic of the pinyin input method, and get the default pinyin string "kai'gua". Through this pinyin string, this stat...

Embodiment 2

[0247] refer to figure 2 , which shows a schematic flowchart of an input method cursor operation method of the present invention, which may specifically include:

[0248] Step 210, in the regular text candidate mode of the input method, monitor whether a sliding event is received;

[0249] Step 212, if a sliding event is received, determine the type of preset mode condition that the sliding event satisfies; if the sliding event meets the first type of preset mode condition, enter step 214; if the sliding event meets the second type Type preset mode condition, then enter step 228;

[0250] Step 214, enter the editing string cursor sliding mode, and judge whether the sliding events that continue to be received in the editing string cursor sliding mode meet the first switching condition; if the sliding events that continue to be received do not meet the first switching condition, Then enter step 216; if the sliding event received continues to meet the first switching condition...

Embodiment 3

[0327] refer to image 3 , which shows a schematic structural view of an input method cursor operating device according to the present invention, which may specifically include:

[0328] The sliding monitoring module 310 is adapted to monitor whether a sliding event is received in the conventional text candidate mode of the input method;

[0329] The type judging module 312 is suitable for judging the preset mode condition type that the sliding event satisfies if a sliding event is received; if it is suitable, if the sliding event meets the first type of preset mode condition, then enter the editing cursor mode for execution Module 314; adapted to enter the candidate cursor mode execution module 320 if the sliding event satisfies the second type preset mode condition;

[0330] Editing cursor mode execution module 314 enters the editing string cursor sliding mode, and judges whether the sliding events that continue to receive in the editing string cursor sliding mode meet the ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a cursor operation method and device for an input method and relates to the technical field of the input method. The cursor operation method for the input method is capable of switching to an edit string cursor sliding mode or a candidate bar cursor sliding mode in an interface of a conventional character candidate mode of the input method and switching there-between after entering the edit string cursor sliding mode or candidate bar cursor sliding mode. In the edit string cursor sliding mode, the position of the cursor in the edit string can be slid through the sliding operation at an input region, and moreover, the edit string can be edited and the like; in the candidate bar cursor sliding mode, the position of the cursor in the candidate item string can be slid through the sliding operation at the input region. The cursor operation method and device for the input method are convenient for a user to control the cursor of the input method to enter the candidate bar and move in the candidate item according to the sliding operation of the input method, the sight line of the user is not influenced, and the user can select the candidate item more conveniently.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of input methods, in particular to an input method cursor operation method and device. Background technique [0002] In various computer systems, the default input language is characters in English. For English input, you can directly select letters to enter. The input of other languages ​​is more troublesome. For example, the Chinese language has tens of thousands of characters, and it is impossible to simply input directly through the buttons. It is necessary to encode Chinese characters, such as encoding Chinese characters according to the pronunciation characteristics of Chinese characters (corresponding to the pinyin input method) According to the font characteristics of Chinese characters (such as strokes and radicals), Chinese characters are encoded (corresponding font input method) or the like, and each button combination can be corresponding to the Chinese character encoding, so that the input of C...
