Abstract
Examples described herein include improved systems and methods for performing erasures and edits within a graphical user interface. A computing device can include a processor that detects skin contact with a touch-screen display of the computing device. The processor can also detect, based on the skin contact, a gesture that indicates an erasure function. Based on that determination, the processor executes the erasure function.
Claims20
A computing device, comprising:
- a touch-screen display;
- a non-transitory, computer-readable medium that contains instructions;
- a processor that executes the instructions to perform stages including:
- detecting skin contact with the touch-screen display;
- detecting, based on the skin contact, a gesture;
- determining that the gesture indicates an erasure function;
- and
- based on the determination, executing the erasure function.
A non-transitory, computer-readable medium containing instructions that, when executed by a processor, performs stages for executing an erasure function on a touch-screen display, the stages comprising:
- detecting skin contact with the touch-screen display;
- detecting, based on the skin contact, a gesture;
- determining that the gesture indicates an erasure function;
- and
- based on the determination, executing the erasure function.
A method for executing an erasure function on a touch-screen display, comprising:
- detecting skin contact with the touch-screen display;
- detecting, based on the skin contact, a gesture;
- determining that the gesture indicates an erasure function;
- and
- based on the determination, executing the erasure function.
