US 2024/0176477 A1 · ELECTRONIC DEVICE, AND METHOD FOR IMPROVING MOVEMENT OPERATION OF OBJECT

Abstract

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a touch screen display, memory, and one or more processors communicatively coupled to the touch screen display and the memory, wherein the memory store one or more computer programs including computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the electronic device to detect a long press input in response to elapsing of a predetermined first touch time from a first touch for selecting an object displayed on the touch screen display, after the long press input is received, receive a drag signal indicating a move of the first touch in a certain direction, in case that the drag signal does not deviate from any of a drag movement time or a drag movement distance, maintain a selected object in a fixed state, and in case that the drag signal deviates from both the predetermined drag movement time and the drag movement distance, change the object selected by the first touch to a floating state from a time point of the deviation from both the predetermined drag movement time and the drag movement distance, and perform control such that a drag movement of the floating object starts in response to the drag signal.

Dependent claims

An electronic device, comprising:

a touch screen display;
memory;
and
one or more processors communicatively coupled to the touch screen display and the memory,
wherein the memory store one or more computer programs including computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the electronic device to perform operations:
detecting a long press input in response to elapsing of a predetermined first touch time from a first touch for selecting an object displayed on the touch screen display,
after the long press input is received, receiving a drag signal indicating a move of the first touch in a certain direction,
in case that the drag signal does not deviate from any of a predetermined drag movement time or a drag movement distance, maintaining a selected object in a fixed state, and
in case that the drag signal deviates from both the predetermined drag movement time and the drag movement distance:
changing the object selected by the first touch into a floating state from a time point of the deviation from both the predetermined drag movement time and the drag movement distance, and
performing control such that a drag movement of the floating object starts in response to the drag signal.

8 more elements

A method performed by an electronic device for improving an object movement operation, the method comprising:

receiving, by the electronic device, a first touch for selecting an object displayed on a touch screen display;
detecting, by the electronic device, a long press input in response to elapsing of a predetermined first touch time from the first touch;
after the long press input is received, receiving, by the electronic device, a drag signal indicating a move of the first touch in a certain direction;
in case that the drag signal does not deviate from any of a predetermined drag movement time or a drag movement distance, maintaining, by the electronic device, the selected object in a fixed state;
and
in case that the drag signal deviates from both the predetermined drag movement time and the drag movement distance:
changing, by the electronic device, the object selected by the first touch into a floating state from a time point of the deviation from both the predetermined drag movement time and the drag movement distance;
and
performing, by the electronic device, control such that a drag movement of the floating object starts in response to the drag signal.

6 more elements

One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media storing one or more computer programs including computer-executable instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of an electronic device, cause the electronic device to perform operations, the operations comprising:

receiving, by the electronic device, a first touch for selecting an object displayed on a touch screen display;
detecting, by the electronic device, a long press input in response to elapsing of a predetermined first touch time from the first touch;
after the long press input is received, receiving, by the electronic device, a drag signal indicating a move of the first touch in a certain direction;
in case that the drag signal does not deviate from any of a predetermined drag movement time or a drag movement distance, maintaining, by the electronic device, the selected object in a fixed state;
and
in case that the drag signal deviates from both the predetermined drag movement time and the drag movement distance:
changing, by the electronic device, the object selected by the first touch into a floating state from a time point of the deviation from both the predetermined drag movement time and the drag movement distance;
and
performing, by the electronic device, control such that a drag movement of the floating object starts in response to the drag signal.
