Abstract
This application relates to the field of electronic devices, and in particular, to a user interface based on pressure-sensitive touch. In a method for operating multiple objects on a pressure-sensitive touchscreen, multiple displayed objects are grouped into different groups according to preset logic; pressure of a user input is classified into multiple levels; at least two operations are preset; and different groups and different operations are selected according to the pressure and a location of the user input. By means of the solutions provided in this application, a user can simultaneously select and operate multiple objects by using a simple operation, so that user experience is good.
Claims19
A method for operating multiple objects, comprising:
- displaying the multiple objects on a display, wherein the multiple objects are grouped into at least two different groups;
- detecting, on a pressure-sensitive touchscreen associated with the display, pressure and a location generated when a user touches the pressure-sensitive touchscreen, wherein the detected pressure is classified into one of at least two pressure levels;
- selecting a first operation from at least two operations according to the detected pressure and the location;
- and
- performing the first operation on a first group of objects in the multiple objects.
An apparatus, comprising:
- a pressure-sensitive touchscreen, the pressure-sensitive touchscreen configured to:
- display multiple objects;
- and
- detect pressure and a location that are generated when a user touches the pressure-sensitive touchscreen, wherein the detected pressure is classified into one of at least two pressure levels;
- a memory, the memory configured to store logic for grouping the multiple objects into different groups and at least two operations;
- and
- at least one processor, the at least one processor configured to:
- read the pressure and the location from the pressure-sensitive touchscreen;
- read the logic and the operations from the memory;
- and
- send, to the pressure-sensitive touchscreen according to the pressure and the location, operation information of a first operation of the operations that is performed on a first group of objects in the multiple objects.
A display system, comprising:
- a display, the display configured to display multiple objects;
- a memory, the memory configured to store logic for grouping the multiple objects into different groups and at least two operations;
- a communications unit associated with a pressure-sensitive touchscreen, the communications unit configured to obtain pressure and a location of a user input that are detected by a pressure applied to the pressure-sensitive touchscreen, wherein the pressure is classified into one of at least two pressure levels;
- and
- at least one processor, the at least one processor configured to:
- read the pressure and the location from the communications unit;
- read the logic and the operations from the memory;
- and
- send, to the display according to the obtained pressure and the location, operation information of a first operation of the operations that is performed on a first group of objects in the multiple objects.
