Background technique

With the continuous development of terminal technology, mobile terminals are more and more widely used. For example, taking the mobile terminal as an example, the mobile phone has become an indispensable tool in people's life.

At present, people often use an input method program on the mobile phone to input information when using the mobile phone. In the process of inputting information, the mobile phone usually displays some candidates in the pre-selection column of the input method program according to people's input. In the pre-selection column, the farther to the left the candidate is arranged, the greater the probability that it may be used by people. People can complete the input of information by selecting the candidates in the pre-selection column.

However, when the screen of the mobile phone is relatively large, and people input information with one hand (for example, right hand input), it may make it impossible for people to conveniently select the desired candidate in the pre-selection column (for example, the candidate in the arrangement position on the left), which may be mistaken. Selecting other undesired candidates (for example, candidates arranged to the right) prevents rapid and accurate input of information.

The following takes a mobile terminal as an example to illustrate the method for displaying input method candidate areas provided by the embodiment of the present invention.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the first possible implementation is: the first input is the switching operation of the candidate area, and the user switches the display mode of the candidate area in the prior art to the one provided by the embodiment of the present invention through the first input. How the candidate regions are displayed. Exemplarily, as shown in (a) in Figure 2, in the prior art, if the user uses the Pinyin input method, after the user enters "aiguojingye", five options of "Patriotic, Dedicated, Patriotic, Loved, and Passed" are displayed. , through the first input, the candidate items displayed in the candidate area change from (a) in FIG. 2 to (b) in FIG. 2 . In the second possible implementation, the first input is the operation of the user inputting content on the input method interface, and the candidate area is directly displayed according to the display mode of the candidate area provided in the embodiment of the present invention, for example, the first input is on the input method interface Input "aiguojingye", the candidates displayed in the candidate area are shown in (b) in Figure 2.

As shown in FIG. 3 , an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for displaying input method candidate areas, and the method may include the following steps 101 - 102 .

Step 101, the mobile terminal receives a first input from a user, and the first input is used to trigger the mobile terminal to display N candidates in a candidate area on an input method interface.

Wherein, N is a positive integer, and the number N of candidate items may be the same or different at each input, depending on the actual situation.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the first input may be a click operation by the user on the input method interface, or a sliding operation by the user on the input method interface, or other feasible operations by the user on the input method interface, specifically can be determined according to actual usage requirements, and is not limited in this embodiment of the present invention.

Exemplarily, the above-mentioned click operation may be a click operation. The above-mentioned sliding operation may be a sliding operation in any direction, such as sliding up, sliding down, sliding to the left, or sliding to the right.

Step 102, in response to the first input, the mobile terminal displays N candidate items in the candidate area.

Wherein, the M target candidates in the N candidates are located at the first position, and the first position may also include non-target candidates, the first position is a position close to the holding position in the candidate area, and the holding position is the For the location of the mobile terminal, the M target candidates are candidates corresponding to the content input by the user on the input method interface, N and M are positive integers, and N≥M.

Target candidates represent candidates with a high probability of being selected by the user.

The position of holding the mobile terminal in the embodiment of the present invention can be understood as the position where the hand holding the mobile terminal is in contact with the mobile terminal. Exemplarily, in a specific implementation, the holding position where the user holds the mobile terminal with one hand in the embodiment of the present invention may be the intersection area between the base of the user's thumb and the mobile terminal (including the intersection area when in direct contact and the area without direct contact). when the center point of the intersection area). Taking the mobile terminal held by the right hand as an example for illustration, 1 in FIG. 4 represents a first position close to the holding position.

Target candidates represent candidates with a high probability of being selected by the user. The M target candidates among the N candidates are the M candidates with higher possibility of being selected by the user among the N candidates.

The M target candidates are located at the first position close to the holding position, which is convenient for the user to use the hand holding the mobile terminal to accurately and quickly select the information to be input (for example, the first target candidate among the M target candidates) to complete the input of information.

The other N-M candidates may be candidates corresponding to the content input by the user on the input method interface, or may be other candidates, which are not limited in this embodiment of the present invention.

Optionally, in a possible implementation manner, the candidate area further includes a second position, and the second position is far away from the holding position relative to the first position, for example, 2 in FIG. 4 represents the second position. The preset candidate or the content input by the user on the input method interface is displayed at the second position.

Optionally, the preset candidates include at least one of the following: preset character strings, preset emoticons, and preset pictures;

The preset character string includes at least one of the following: preset punctuation marks, spaces, preset numbers, preset letters, preset strokes, and preset URLs. The number of preset character strings, preset emoticons, and preset pictures is not limited in this embodiment of the present invention, and the preset pictures include preset icons.

Exemplarily, M=2, as shown in (b) in Figure 2, as shown in (a) in Figure 5, and as shown in (b) in Figure 5, the first position all includes the target candidate item "Patriotic "Dedicated" and "Patriotic" also include the non-target candidate "loved"; the second positions are respectively preset punctuation marks, preset spaces, and the content "aiguojingye" input by the user on the input method interface.

Optionally, in another possible implementation, as shown in FIG. 4, the candidate area also includes a second position, and the second position is farther away from the holding position than the first position. 2 in FIG. 4 represents the second position Second position. The candidate items corresponding to the content input by the user on the input method interface are displayed at the second position, and the word frequencies of the candidate items displayed at the second position are less than or equal to the word frequencies of the M target candidates.

It should be noted that the word frequency can specifically refer to the probability of occurrence of any candidate item corresponding to the content entered by the user on the input method interface according to the statistics of the input method program. A large word frequency means a high probability of occurrence, and as time goes by, the word frequency Can vary. For example, if the user enters the content "aiguojingye" on the input method interface, the probability of occurrence of the candidate item "Patriotism" corresponding to "aiguojingye" is greater than the probability of occurrence of "Love", which means the word frequency of "Patriotism" Greater than the word frequency of "loved".

Exemplarily, M=2, as shown in (a) in FIG. 6 and (b) in FIG. 6 , the first position includes the target candidates "patriotism and dedication" and "patriotism", and also includes non-target candidates "啊"; the second position is the candidate corresponding to the content input by the user on the input method interface, for example, it can be a target candidate, or a non-target candidate, or a target candidate and a non-target candidate , and the word frequencies of the candidates displayed in the second position are less than or equal to the word frequencies of the M target candidates. In the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in (b) in Figure 6, when the two target candidates "patriotism and dedication" and "patriotism" are copied from the second position to the first position, the displayed in the second position The word frequency of the candidate item is less than or equal to the word frequency of the M target candidate items, specifically, the word frequency of all the candidate items ("patriotism and dedication" and "patriotism") displayed in the second position is less than or equal to the word frequency in the M target candidate items The word frequency of the largest target candidate ("patriotism and dedication").

It should be noted that the size of the area occupied by the first position and the second position is not fixed, and depends on actual conditions.

Optionally, in the first possible implementation manner, the first input is an operation of updating and displaying the M target candidates from the second position to the first position. It should be noted that the second position may be all the positions occupied by the M target candidates, or may be a part of the positions occupied by the M target candidates, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present invention. For example, the target candidates are displayed from left to right, and the second position may be a position occupied by the leftmost one, one and a half or two target candidates among the M target candidates.

Exemplarily, referring to FIG. 3 , as shown in FIG. 7 , before step 101 , the method for displaying input method candidate areas provided by the embodiment of the present invention may further include the following steps 103 - 104 .

Step 103, the mobile terminal receives a second input from the user on the input method interface, and the second input is used to trigger the mobile terminal to display P candidates corresponding to the first input.

Wherein, P is a positive integer, and P and N may or may not be equal. At each input, the number P of candidate items may be the same or different, depending on the actual situation, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present invention.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the second input can be the user's click operation on the virtual keyboard of the input method interface, or it can be the user's sliding operation on the virtual keyboard of the input method interface, or it can be the user's virtual keyboard operation on the input method interface. Other feasible operations on the keyboard can be specifically determined according to actual usage requirements, and are not limited in this embodiment of the present invention. For the description of the click operation and the slide operation, please refer to the related description of the click operation and the slide operation in the description of the first input in step 101 above, and details are not repeated here.

Generally, the above-mentioned first input may be a user's click operation on the virtual keyboard of the input method interface.

As shown in Figure 8, the input method interface includes a candidate area, as shown in 1 in Figure 8, the candidate area includes multiple default candidates, as shown in 2 in Figure 8, the number of specific default candidates , symbols and functions may be determined according to the design of the input method, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in (a) in Figure 2, the second input is the user’s operation of inputting information on the input method interface. For example, when the user uses the Pinyin input method to input “aiguojingye”, the candidate area displays Corresponding five candidates.

Step 104, in response to the second input, the mobile terminal updates and displays the default candidates in the candidate area as P candidates.

As shown in Fig. 8 and (a) in Fig. 2, after the user enters the second input, the mobile terminal updates and displays the default candidate items in the candidate area as shown in Fig. 8 as shown in (a) in Fig. 2 5 candidates corresponding to the first input in the candidate area shown.

Exemplarily, in the embodiment of the present invention, the above step 101 may be specifically implemented through the following step 101a.

Step 101a, the mobile terminal receives a first input from the user, and the first input is used to trigger the mobile terminal to update and display M target candidates among the P candidates from the second position to the first position.

Among them, M<P. When information is input each time, the number M of target candidates may be the same or different, which is specifically determined according to needs.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the first input may be the user's operation on the candidate area, or the user's operation on the current interface other than the input method interface on the mobile terminal, for example, the user is using the input method to chat , then the first input may be the user's operation on the interface of the chat application program; it may also be the user's gesture operation on the mobile terminal, and the mobile terminal senses the gesture operation according to the infrared sensor. The first input may be a user's click operation, or a user's slide operation, which may be specifically determined according to actual usage requirements, and is not limited in this embodiment of the present invention.

Optionally, the updating and display of the above M target candidates from the second position to the first position may specifically be one of the following:

(1) M target candidates are moved from the second position to the first position.

(2) M target candidates are copied from the second location to the first location.

Exemplarily, in the embodiment of the present invention, the above step 102 may be specifically implemented through the following step 102a.

Step 102a. In response to the first input, the mobile terminal updates and displays the M target candidates from the second position to the first position.

Therefore, the M target candidates are close to the holding position, which is the position where the user holds the mobile terminal.

After the M target candidates are updated and displayed from the second position to the first position, it is convenient for the user to use the hand holding the mobile terminal to accurately and quickly select the information to be input (for example, the first target in the M target candidates Candidates) to complete the entry of information.

Optionally, if the M target candidates move from the second position to the first position, then in combination with (a) of FIG. 2 and (b) of FIG. 2 , it can be seen that the arrangement order of the currently displayed candidates in the candidate area is the same as It is unchanged from before receiving the user's first input. The mobile terminal can control the input method application to display preset content at the second location. Specifically, the second position is each position between the starting position of the candidate area and the starting position of the first position. Specifically, if the candidates in the candidate area are arranged from left to right, the starting position of the candidate area is the leftmost end of the candidate area, and the starting position of the first position is the leftmost end of the first position; if the candidates in the candidate area are arranged from right to left, the starting position of the candidate area is the rightmost end of the candidate area, The starting position of the first position is the rightmost end of the first position. In actual implementation, the area occupied by the designed preset content is greater than or equal to the area occupied by the actually displayed preset content. Specifically, if the M target candidates move from the second position to the first position by S, then the area occupied by the preset content actually displayed is S, and the area occupied by the designed preset content must be greater than or equal to S . Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the preset content may include at least one of the following: a preset character string, a preset emoticon, and a preset picture.

Optionally, displaying the preset content at the second location may be moving the preset content to the second location, or copying the preset content to the second location. Exemplarily, the leftmost part of the candidate area is filled with preset content, but when the candidate is displayed, the filled preset content is hidden, then when the user slides to the right on the candidate area, the M target candidates move from the second position to the first position, the preset content moves to the second position. Exemplarily, the leftmost of the candidate area is filled with blanks, but when the candidates are displayed, the filled blanks are hidden, then when the user slides to the right on the candidate area, the M target candidates move from the second position to the first position , the second position is blank, and the preset content is copied to the second position.

Exemplarily, as shown in (b) in Figure 2, M is 2, and the preset content is a preset punctuation mark, and 2 target candidates move from the second position to the first position, and the preset punctuation mark shows in the second position.

Exemplarily, as shown in (a) in Figure 5, M is 2, and the preset content is a preset space, and 2 target candidates move from the second position to the first position, and the preset space is displayed at the first position. Second position.

Exemplarily, as shown in (b) in Figure 5, M is 2, the preset content is the content corresponding to the second input, the content corresponding to the second input is the pinyin of the first target candidate, and the 2 target candidates Moving from the second position to the first position, the pinyin of the first target candidate is displayed at the second position.

Optionally, if M target candidates are copied from the second position to the first position, then in combination with (a) in FIG. 2 and (a) in FIG. 6, it can be seen that the arrangement of the currently displayed candidates in the candidate area The sequence is changed from before receiving the user's first input. The mobile terminal can control the input method application to still display the original alternatives in the second position, and can also control the input method application to update and display the alternatives in the second position as preset content. Refer to the above description for the preset content, and details are not repeated here. Specifically, when the M target candidates are copied from the second location to the first location, the preset content is copied to the second location.

Exemplarily, as shown in (a) in FIG. 6 , M is 2, and when two target candidates are copied from the second position to the first position, the second position still displays the original candidates.

Exemplarily, as shown in Figure 9, M is 2, the preset content is the preset punctuation mark, 2 target candidates are copied from the second position to the first position, and the preset punctuation mark is copied to the second position .

Exemplarily, as shown in (a) in Figure 10, M is 2, and the preset content is a preset space, and 2 target candidates are copied from the second position to the first position, and the preset space is copied to second position.

Exemplarily, as shown in (b) in Figure 10, M is 2, the preset content is the content corresponding to the second input, the content corresponding to the second input is the pinyin of the first target candidate, and 2 target candidates Copy from the second location to the first location, and copy the pinyin of the first target candidate to the second location.

Specifically, first obtain the coordinate interval X1-X2 of the M target candidates, and obtain the coordinate interval (X1+x)-( X2+x), and then update and display the M target candidates from the second position to the first position according to the coordinate change.

If the user wants to input information, the mobile terminal must first display the input method interface, and in order to improve user experience, when the mobile terminal detects that the user has input with one hand, it can provide the user with a choice of left-hand input or right-hand input, and then through the user's choice, Provide users with layouts of different input method interfaces.

Exemplarily, referring to FIG. 7 , as shown in FIG. 11 , before step 101 , the method for displaying input method candidate areas provided by the embodiment of the present invention may further include the following steps 105 - 108 .

Step 105, the mobile terminal receives a third input from the user on the current interface of the mobile terminal, and the third input is used to trigger the mobile terminal to display the input method interface.

When the user wants to use the input method to input information, he needs to call out the input method interface through the third input on the current interface of the mobile terminal. Optionally, in the embodiment of the present invention, the third input may be a user's click operation on the current interface of the mobile terminal, or a user's sliding operation on the current interface of the mobile terminal, which may be specifically determined according to actual usage requirements, The embodiments of the present invention are not limited.

For the description of the click operation and the slide operation, please refer to the related description of the click operation and the slide operation in the description of the first input in step 101 above, and details are not repeated here.

For example, the third input of the user on the current interface of the mobile terminal may be a click input on the input box on the chat interface of the mobile terminal, or a click input on the search box on the search interface of the mobile terminal, It may also be a sliding input on the lock screen interface of the mobile terminal, and the like. Specifically, it may be determined according to an actual usage scenario, and is not limited in this embodiment of the present invention.

Step 106, the mobile terminal displays selection information on the current interface of the mobile terminal, the selection information includes a first option and a second option, the first option is used to instruct the user to hold the mobile terminal with the left hand, and the second option is used to instruct the user to use the right hand Hold the mobile terminal.
