Abstract
One or more embodiments disclose a method and an apparatus including a memory, and a processor operatively connected to the memory. The processor is configured to, as handwriting is input by a user, analyze strokes of the input handwriting, generate search data and action link data, based on the analyzed strokes, generate search-based recognition data including the search data and link flag information associated with the action link data, and store a handwriting file including the generated search-based recognition data. Various embodiments are possible.
Claims16
An electronic device comprising:
- a touch display;
- memory storing instructions;
- and
- a processor,
- wherein the instructions stored in the memory are configured to, when executed by the processor, cause the electronic device to:
- receive handwriting input on the touch display from a user;
- analyze strokes of the handwriting;
- determine lines of the handwriting, based on the analyzed strokes;
- generate search data for including text information corresponding to the handwriting for each of the lines and action link data for executing a function corresponding to the handwriting for each of the lines, based on the analyzed strokes;
- generate search-based recognition data, the search-based recognition data including the search data and link flag information for generating the action link data;
- store a handwriting file including the generated search-based recognition data;
- wherein the link flag information includes at least one of an action link type, stroke information, or an index offset;
- and
- configure another index offset of previous link flag information after determining an action link type of next action link data;
- wherein the index offset includes an offset value for an index for which the next action link data exists:
- wherein the search-based recognition data is included in the handwriting file and shared with an electronic device of a counterpart, the electronic device of the counterpart generates the action link data on a basis of the link flag information included in the search-based recognition data.
A method of operating an electronic device, the method comprising:
- receiving handwriting input on a touch display of the electronic device from a user;
- analyzing strokes of the handwriting;
- determining lines of the handwriting, based on the analyzed strokes;
- generating search data for including text information corresponding to the handwriting for each of the lines and action link data for executing a function corresponding to the handwriting for each of the lines, based on the analyzed strokes;
- generating search-based recognition data, the search-based recognition data including the search data and link flag information for generating the action link data;
- storing a handwriting file including the generated search-based recognition data;
- wherein the link flag information includes at least one of an action link type, stroke information, or an index offset;
- and
- configuring another index offset of previous link flag information after determining an action link type of next action link data;
- wherein the index offset includes an offset value for an index for which the next action link data exists;
- wherein the search-based recognition data is included in the handwriting file and shared with an electronic device of a counterpart, the electronic device of the counterpart generates the action link data on a basis of the link flag information included in the search-based recognition data.
