Referring first to fig. 5, there is a schematic interface diagram of an application for adding notes on an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present invention, wherein the application can be installed in various electronic devices, and the electronic devices can be any existing, developing or future developed smart phones, non-smart phones, tablet computers, notebook computers, and the like. However, the application interfaces shown here are examples only, and the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. The electronic equipment implementing the method provided by the embodiment of the invention can respond to a request for adding a note on a page of an electronic book and generate a first layer; recording a note range on the first layer in response to an operation of delimiting a range for a note on the page; responding to the operation of recording notes on the page, and generating a second image layer and a third image layer; receiving and displaying the recorded note on the third layer, and displaying the recorded note in a reduced manner on the second layer; and in response to the request for adding notes ending on the page, saving the first layer and the second layer in association with the page.
It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the schematic diagram shown in fig. 5 is merely an example in which the embodiments of the present invention may be implemented, and the applicable scope of the embodiments of the present invention is not limited thereto.
Exemplary method
A method for adding notes on an electronic device according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to fig. 2 in conjunction with the application scenario of fig. 5. It should be noted that the above application scenarios are merely illustrated for the convenience of understanding the spirit and principles of the present invention, and the embodiments of the present invention are not limited in this respect. Rather, embodiments of the present invention may be applied to any scenario where applicable.
FIG. 2 schematically shows a flowchart of a method 100 of adding notes on an electronic device according to an embodiment of the invention. As shown in fig. 2, the method 100 may include steps 110, 120, 130, 140, 150.
The method 100 begins at step 110, where a first layer is generated in response to a request to add a note on a page of an electronic book. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the first layer is a layer for recording a range on an electronic book page to which a note is directed; the request for adding the note on the page of the electronic book may be, for example, an operation of the user to demarcate a range for which the note is on the page of the electronic book, or a user triggering a control for adding the note on the page of the electronic book.
Next, step 120 is executed, wherein in response to the operation of delimiting the range for which the note is on the page, a note range is recorded on the first layer. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the operation of demarcating a scope for which a note is intended includes: delineating the range, or delineating the range in an underline manner. As shown in the upper half of FIG. 5, the range to which the note is directed may be delineated by an outline. According to an embodiment of the present invention, after the operation of delineating the outline or delineating the underline is stopped for a predefined period of time (e.g., 1 second), it is determined that the operation of delineating the range is ended. Such a range-defining operation has a low requirement for the accuracy of the user operation, and can largely avoid an erroneous operation.
After step 120, step 130 is executed, wherein, in response to the operation of recording the note on the page, a second layer and a third layer are generated. According to the embodiment of the invention, the second layer and the third layer can be generated in response to the selection of the control for recording the note on the page or when the gesture for recording the note is detected to meet the preset condition. Optionally, a note-recording gesture can be arbitrarily set in advance, and when the gesture operated by the user on the electronic device is detected to meet the condition of the preset note-recording gesture, the second layer and the third layer are generated.
Fig. 3 schematically illustrates a bottom layer, a first layer, a second layer, and a third layer according to an embodiment of the present invention. In each figure of the specification, a layer 1 is shown to be equivalent to a first layer of a text part of the specification, a layer 2 is shown to be equivalent to a second layer of the text part of the specification, and a layer 3 is shown to be equivalent to a third layer of the text part of the specification. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the second layer or the third layer includes a transparent background. In fig. 3, in order to show each layer more clearly, a gray scale is used, but in practice, the backgrounds of the first layer, the second layer and the third layer may be transparent, so that the user only sees the text page of the underlying book. In addition, in fig. 3, in order to more clearly show the respective layers, the respective layers are arranged in a staggered manner, but actually, the first layer, the second layer, and the third layer may be overlapped with the bottom layer.
After step 130, step 140 is performed, wherein the recorded note is received and displayed on the third layer, and the recorded note is displayed in a reduced size on the second layer. Optionally, the recorded note may be received and displayed on the third layer with the entire page or a part of the page as a range. Fig. 4 schematically illustrates an operation of receiving and displaying a recorded note on a third layer and displaying the recorded note in a reduced size on a second layer according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 4, the recorded note "write" word is received and displayed on the third layer, and the note is displayed reduced on the second layer. Shown in fig. 4 is a printed note "write" that may be entered by the user using an input method or by recognizing a handwritten input from the user. Alternatively, a note input by the user through handwriting (for example, a handwritten "written" word) may be received and displayed on the third layer, and the note may be displayed in a reduced size on the second layer. In the present invention, the purpose of processing using the two layers of the second layer and the third layer is: the convenience of input is guaranteed by using a larger input area and a larger font on the third image layer, and the display is reduced in the second image layer, so that more note contents can be displayed at the same time, and a user can conveniently check the added note contents. In an embodiment according to the present invention, the second layer and the third layer may occupy 50% of the area of the upper and lower portions of the page, respectively, so as to facilitate the reduced note content to be viewed on the second layer while the note is input in the third layer.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the step 140 includes: (i) receiving and displaying the recorded one character on the third layer, and displaying the one character in a reduced manner on the second layer; (ii) emptying the content displayed on the third layer, receiving and displaying the recorded next character on the third layer, and displaying the next character on the second layer in a reduced manner following the one character; and repeating the operation of step (ii) above for subsequent characters. Such an embodiment is suitable for the case where the amount of the written characters is small.
In another embodiment of the present invention, the step 140 includes: (i') receiving and displaying the recorded set of characters on the third layer and displaying the set of characters in reduced size on the second layer; (ii') emptying the content displayed on said third layer, receiving and displaying the recorded next set of characters on said third layer, and displaying said next set of characters on said second layer reduced following said set of characters; and repeating the operation of step (ii') above for subsequent characters. Such an embodiment is suitable for the case of large text volume.
In the above two embodiments, after receiving a character input on the third layer, no character input is received any more within a predefined time period (e.g., 1 second), or in response to a selection of a control on the third layer for ending an input of a character or a group of characters, the character or the group of characters is displayed in a reduced manner on the second layer and content displayed on the third layer is emptied.
In the second embodiment, the area of the third layer is larger than the area of the page (i.e., the bottom layer), and in response to the dragging of the third layer, the subsequently input characters are continuously received and displayed in the third layer. Therefore, the third image layer with a larger area is provided, and a user can conveniently input more note contents at one time; after the user finishes using the area of the current page in the third layer, the user can obtain more area by dragging the third layer, so as to continue inputting the note content.
In the second embodiment, the line is automatically changed on the second layer according to the judgment of the break point of the group of characters. The break point of the group of characters can be a comma, a semicolon, a period, or other punctuation marks, and can also be a blank area with an area exceeding a predefined threshold. When it is determined that such a breakpoint exists in the note input on the third layer, the line may be automatically wrapped in the second layer so as to more clearly display the note content.
After step 140, step 150 is performed, wherein in response to the request for adding notes on the page ending, the first layer and the second layer are saved in association with the page. According to the embodiment of the invention, after the first layer and the second layer are saved in association with the page, the content on the first layer cannot be dragged or zoomed, and the content on the second layer can be dragged or zoomed. Fig. 5 schematically illustrates a schematic diagram of the first layer and the second layer after the first layer and the second layer are saved in association with the page according to the embodiment of the present invention. After the steps of the method 100 for adding a note on the electronic device according to the embodiment of the present invention are performed, the first layer and the second layer are saved in association with the page (i.e., the bottom layer), wherein the content defining the note range on the first layer cannot be dragged or zoomed, and the note content on the second layer can be dragged or zoomed, and the user can better display the note content on the second layer by dragging and/or zooming. Therefore, the method is suitable for meeting the actual requirement of fixing the marking position of the first image layer for the specific content, and meanwhile, the text content is not covered by dragging the text note so as to browse the content of the text. According to the embodiment of the invention, the first image layer and the second image layer are saved in association with the page by establishing a link between the content on the first image layer and the second image layer and the page number of the page.
According to the present invention, a first layer may be generated in response to a request to add a note on a page of an electronic book, a note range may be recorded on the first layer in response to an operation to define a range to which a note is directed on the page, a second layer and a third layer may be generated in response to an operation to record a note on the page, the recorded note may be received and displayed on the third layer, and the recorded note may be displayed in a reduced size on the second layer, and the first layer and the second layer may be saved in association with the page in response to a request to end adding a note on the page. Therefore, the range of the note can be quickly and conveniently defined, the operation cost is reduced, and the operation error rate is reduced; and note input operation can be carried out in a larger screen area, so that the input efficiency is improved, and the probability of input errors is reduced.
In addition, through the operation of some possible implementation manners, note input operation in an area larger than the screen area can be obtained, a group of characters can be input at one time, automatic line feed in the second layer can be realized, and the content on the second layer can be dragged or zoomed. Therefore, the input efficiency is further improved, and the probability of input errors is reduced.
In one embodiment, the note adding object may not be limited to an electronic book, but may be other types of electronic files, such as a software interface, a shopping page, and the like. And adding notes on the electronic file through a touch screen of the electronic equipment. In this embodiment, in response to an operation of demarcating a range to which a note is directed on an electronic file, a touch movement trajectory on a touch screen is detected and displayed on the electronic file. The operation of delimiting the range of the note on the electronic file may be implemented by detecting whether a touch movement track on the touch screen satisfies a first preset mode (e.g., the curvature in a unit size is smaller than a predetermined value), or by triggering a predetermined control. In this embodiment, in response to an operation of recording a note on an electronic file, a touch movement trajectory on a touch screen is detected and reduced, and then the touch movement trajectory is displayed on the electronic file. The operation of recording the note on the electronic file can be realized by triggering of a preset control, and can also be realized by detecting whether the touch movement track on the screen meets a second preset mode (for example, the curvature change in the unit size is greater than a preset value). In one embodiment, the position and size of the touch movement track displayed in response to an operation of delimiting a range for which a note is made on an electronic file are not adjustable, and the position and size of the touch movement track displayed in response to an operation of recording a note on the electronic file are adjustable by operating on a touch screen of the electronic device.
In one embodiment, a method of adding notes to an electronic file through a screen of an electronic device includes: detecting a touch movement track on a touch screen; when the touch control moving track is detected to meet a first preset mode, recording the touch control moving track on a first layer of the electronic file; and when the touch control moving track is detected to meet a second preset mode, reducing the touch control moving track and recording the moving track on a second layer of the electronic file. In one embodiment, the position and the size of the touch moving track on the first image layer are not adjustable, and the position and the size of the touch moving track on the second image layer are adjustable.
Exemplary devices
Having described the method of the exemplary embodiments of the present invention, the apparatus for adding notes on an electronic device of the exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described next.
FIG. 6 schematically shows a block schematic diagram of an apparatus for adding notes on an electronic device according to an embodiment of the invention. As shown in fig. 6, the apparatus 200 may include:
a first generating unit 210, configured to generate a first layer in response to a request for adding a note on a page of an electronic book;
a note range recording unit 220, configured to record a note range on the first layer in response to an operation of delimiting a range for which a note is directed on the page;
a second generating unit 230, configured to generate a second layer and a third layer in response to an operation of recording a note on the page;
a note display unit 240 configured to receive and display the recorded note on the third layer, and display the recorded note in a reduced size on the second layer; and
a saving unit 250, configured to, in response to a request for ending adding a note on the page, save the first layer and the second layer in association with the page.
First, the first generation unit 210 generates a first layer in response to a request to add a note on a page of an electronic book. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the first layer is a layer for recording a range on an electronic book page to which a note is directed; the request for adding the note on the page of the electronic book may be, for example, an operation of the user to demarcate a range for which the note is on the page of the electronic book, or a user triggering a control for adding the note on the page of the electronic book.
Next, the note range recording unit 220 records a note range on the first layer in response to an operation of delimiting a range for which a note is directed on the page. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the operation of demarcating a scope for which a note is intended includes: delineating the range, or delineating the range in an underline manner. As shown in the upper half of FIG. 5, the range to which the note is directed may be delineated by an outline. According to an embodiment of the present invention, after the operation of delineating the outline or delineating the underline is stopped for a predefined period of time (e.g., 1 second), it is determined that the operation of delineating the range is ended. Such a range-defining operation has a low requirement for the accuracy of the user operation, and can largely avoid an erroneous operation.
After that, the second generating unit 230 generates a second layer and a third layer in response to an operation of recording a note on the page. According to the embodiment of the invention, the second generating unit 230 may generate the second layer and the third layer in response to selection of a control for recording a note on the page or when it is detected that the gesture for recording a note meets a preset condition. Alternatively, a gesture for recording a note may be arbitrarily set in advance, and the second generation unit 230 generates the second layer and the third layer when detecting that the gesture operated by the user on the electronic device meets a condition of the preset gesture for recording a note.
Fig. 3 schematically illustrates a bottom layer, a first layer, a second layer, and a third layer according to an embodiment of the present invention. In each figure of the specification, a layer 1 is shown to be equivalent to a first layer of a text part of the specification, a layer 2 is shown to be equivalent to a second layer of the text part of the specification, and a layer 3 is shown to be equivalent to a third layer of the text part of the specification. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the second layer or the third layer includes a transparent background. In fig. 3, in order to show each layer more clearly, a gray scale is used, but in practice, the backgrounds of the first layer, the second layer and the third layer may be transparent, so that the user only sees the text page of the underlying book. In addition, in fig. 3, in order to more clearly show the respective layers, the respective layers are arranged in a staggered manner, but actually, the first layer, the second layer, and the third layer may be overlapped with the bottom layer.
Subsequently, the note display unit 240 receives and displays the recorded note on the third layer, and displays the recorded note in a reduced size on the second layer. Optionally, the note display unit 240 may receive and display the recorded note on the third layer in a range of the entire page or a part of the page. Fig. 4 schematically illustrates an operation of receiving and displaying a recorded note on a third layer and displaying the recorded note in a reduced size on a second layer according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 4, the note display unit 240 receives and displays the recorded note "write" word on the third layer, and displays the note in a reduced size on the second layer. Shown in fig. 4 is a printed note "write" that may be entered by the user using an input method or by recognizing a handwritten input from the user. Alternatively, the note display unit 240 may also receive and display a note (e.g., a "written" word of a handwritten body) handwritten by the user on the third layer, and display the note in a reduced size on the second layer. In the present invention, the purpose of processing using the two layers of the second layer and the third layer is: the convenience of input is guaranteed by using a larger input area and a larger font on the third image layer, and the display is reduced in the second image layer, so that more note contents can be displayed at the same time, and a user can conveniently check the added note contents. In an embodiment according to the present invention, the second layer and the third layer may occupy 50% of the area of the upper and lower portions of the page, respectively, so as to facilitate the reduced note content to be viewed on the second layer while the note is input in the third layer.
In one embodiment of the present invention, note display unit 240(i) receives and displays one of the recorded characters on the third layer and displays the one character in reduced size on the second layer; (ii) emptying the content displayed on the third layer, receiving and displaying the recorded next character on the third layer, and displaying the next character on the second layer in a reduced manner following the one character; and repeating the operation of (ii) above for subsequent characters. Such an embodiment is suitable for the case where the amount of the written characters is small.
In another embodiment of the present invention, note display unit 240 (i') receives and displays the recorded set of characters on the third layer and displays the set of characters in reduced size on the second layer; (ii') emptying the content displayed on said third layer, receiving and displaying the recorded next set of characters on said third layer, and displaying said next set of characters on said second layer reduced following said set of characters; and repeating the operation of (ii') above for subsequent characters. Such an embodiment is suitable for the case of large text volume.
In the above two embodiments, when no character input is received within a predefined time period (e.g., 1 second) after receiving the character input on the third layer, or in response to selection of a control for ending input of a character or a group of characters on the third layer, the note display unit 240 displays the character or the group of characters on the second layer in a reduced manner and clears the content displayed on the third layer.
In the second embodiment, the area of the third layer is larger than the area of the page (i.e., the bottom layer), and in response to the dragging of the third layer, the note display unit 240 continues to receive and display the subsequently input characters on the third layer. Therefore, the third image layer with a larger area is provided, and a user can conveniently input more note contents at one time; after the user finishes using the area of the current page in the third layer, the user can obtain more area by dragging the third layer, so as to continue inputting the note content.
In the second embodiment, the note displaying unit 240 automatically wraps the second layer according to the breakpoint of the group of characters. The break point of the group of characters can be a comma, a semicolon, a period, or other punctuation marks, and can also be a blank area with an area exceeding a predefined threshold. Upon determining that such a breakpoint exists in the note input on the third layer, the note display unit 240 may automatically wrap in the second layer to more clearly display the note content.
Finally, the saving unit 250 saves the first layer and the second layer in association with the page in response to the request for adding a note ending on the page. According to the embodiment of the present invention, after the saving unit 250 saves the first layer and the second layer in association with the page, the content on the first layer may not be dragged or zoomed, and the content on the second layer may be dragged or zoomed. Fig. 5 schematically illustrates a schematic diagram of the first layer and the second layer after the first layer and the second layer are saved in association with the page according to the embodiment of the present invention. After the operations of the units of the apparatus 200 for adding a note on an electronic device according to the embodiment of the present invention are performed, the first layer and the second layer are saved in association with the page (i.e., the bottom layer), wherein the content defining the note range on the first layer is not draggable or zoomed, and the note content on the second layer is draggable or zoomed, and the user can better display the note content on the second layer by dragging and/or zooming. According to the embodiment of the present invention, the saving unit 250 may save the first layer and the second layer in association with the page by establishing a link between the content on the first layer and the second layer and the page number of the page.
According to the present invention, the first generation unit 201 may generate a first layer in response to a request to add a note on a page of an electronic book, the note range recording unit 220 may record a note range on the first layer in response to an operation to define a range to which a note is directed on the page, the second generation unit 230 may generate a second layer and a third layer in response to an operation to record a note on the page, the note display unit 240 may receive and display the recorded note on the third layer, and display the recorded note in a reduced size on the second layer, and the saving unit 250 may save the first layer and the second layer in association with the page in response to a request to end adding a note on the page. Therefore, the range of the note can be quickly and conveniently defined, the operation cost is reduced, and the operation error rate is reduced; and note input operation can be carried out in a larger screen area, so that the input efficiency is improved, and the probability of input errors is reduced.
In addition, through the operation of some possible implementation manners, note input operation in an area larger than the screen area can be obtained, a group of characters can be input at one time, automatic line feed in the second layer can be realized, and the content on the second layer can be dragged or zoomed. Therefore, the input efficiency is further improved, and the probability of input errors is reduced.
