Patent application number | Description | Published |
20090172594 | USER INTERFACE OF ELECTRONIC APPARATUS - A user interface of electronic apparatus includes at least one launched indicator and at least one non-launched indicator, and the arrangement of the launched indicator and non-launched indicators forms a loop path so that the indicators can have a revolution around a centre of the loop path according to a direction command inputted by a user. Each launched indicator indicates an executed program, each non-launched indicator indicates a non-executed program, and the indicator moved to a specific location is defined as a selectable indicator. The user can control the program indicated by the selectable indicator with any operation. | 07-02-2009 |
20090256806 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ALTERING KEY FUNCTION OF SOFTWARE INPUT PANEL AND RECORDING MEDIUM THEREOF - A method and an apparatus for altering a key function of a software input panel (SIP) of an electronic device and a recording medium thereof are provided, wherein the SIP includes a plurality of keys, and the number and layout of the keys are fixed. In the present method, first, an operating interface of an electronic device is switched, wherein the operating interface includes the SIP. Then, each key of the SIP is switched to an input word corresponding to the operating interface. As a result, the input word corresponding to each key of the SIP is automatically altered according to the current operating interface, and accordingly inputting through the SIP is made very convenient. | 10-15-2009 |
20090267900 | OPERATION METHOD OF USER INTERFACE AND COMPUTER READABLE MEDIUM AND PORTABLE DEVICE - An operation method of a user interface suitable for performing an input operation on an input panel displayed on a display is provided. The input panel comprises a plurality of keys. The operation method includes deciding an input command through one of the keys of the input panel. Then, a vision feedback represented by an image is displayed within a display area of a display. | 10-29-2009 |
20100013774 | METHOD FOR CONTROLLING APPLICATION PROGRAM, ELECTRONIC DEVICE THEREOF, AND STORAGE MEDIUM THEREOF - A method for controlling an application program, an electronic device thereof, and a recording medium thereof are provided. In the present method, when detecting at least one touch area on a touch screen of the electronic device, all touch points contained within each of the touch areas are obtained. Then, a unique typical coordinate value is determined according to a coordinate value of each of the touch points. Finally, an application program is controlled to execute a function relative to the typical coordinate value. Hence, the application program is controlled to execute the corresponding function by detecting the user operation on the touch screen so as to improve a convenience of operating the electronic device. | 01-21-2010 |
20100210250 | COMMUNICATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS AND METHODS - Communication management systems and methods are provided. The communication management system includes a reception unit, a telecommunication processing unit, a storage unit, and a processing unit. The reception unit receives data, wherein the data includes at least one communication party. The processing unit receives a selection corresponding to the communication party in the data, and in response to the selection corresponding to the communication party, automatically retrieves a phone number of the communication party from an address book in the storage unit according to identification data of the communication party. Then, the processing unit establishes a call with the communication party according to the phone number via the telecommunication processing unit. | 08-19-2010 |
20100215160 | CALL MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS AND METHODS - Call management systems and methods are provided. The call management system includes a touch-sensitive display unit, and a processing unit. The touch-sensitive display unit displays data including at least a body and a phone number, and receives a selection corresponding to the phone number. In response to the selection corresponding to the phone number, the processing unit automatically dials according to the phone number, and displays the body of the data during dialing via the touch-sensitive display unit. | 08-26-2010 |
20120206379 | Single-layer and multi-touch projected capacitive apparatus - A single-layer and multi-touch projective-capacitive apparatus includes: (a) a substrate, (b) a conductive layer configured on the substrate, wherein the conductive layer consists of a plurality of first patterns, a plurality of second patterns, a plurality of third patterns and a plurality of fourth patterns, and (c) a plurality of conductive wires configured on the substrate respectively to connect with the first patterns, the second patterns, the third patterns and the fourth patterns. | 08-16-2012 |
